    oh yeah now this is some racism for you...someone at CNN hates Jews...yikes

    Okay, so CNN runs a headline quoting a racist remark made by an Alt-Right spokesperson in a speech and somehow CNN is racist, rather than the guy who made the statement?

    Yes, probably they should have phrased their headline better, but this to me seems a straightforward example of people reading only headlines and not the article.

    And I saw parts of that speech. It's disgusting.
    my point was proven then...you got it!!!! Actually I don't see the issue with that headline at all because that's pretty much exactly what that guy said...so whats the problem in that headline?

    the same can be said about Trumps remarks and how they are taken out of context...man im good at this :smiley:
    no, you're not at all. I see no problem with that headline, but you made a vague comment before the article link which could have been taken as sarcasm or at face value. And depending on how subsequent posters respond, you respond with a "gotcha". There is no gotcha moment here. This has zero in common with things trump has actually said. not taken out of context. no spun. what he actually said. here's ONE:

    "when mexico sends it's people, they aren't sending their best. they aren't sending you, or you. they're sending people that have lots of problems and they're bringing those problems with us. they're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime. they're rapists. some, I assume, are good people".

    that is the DIRECT QUOTE. tell me, how:

    1) is that taken out of context, and
    2) how it isn't an inherently racist statement

    When award-winning Hispanic journalist Jorge Ramos attempted to ask Trump questions about his immigration stance during a press conference in Iowa, the presidential candidate refused to respond because he said Ramos had spoken out of turn. As Ramos attempted to finish his question, security approached him and physically removed him. Right before he was ejected from the conference, Trump told Ramos: “Go back to Univision.” On the way out a Trump supporter confronted the journalist, a U.S. citizen, and said: “You were very rude. It’s not about you. Get out of my country.” Ramos was eventually allowed back into the press conference to ask his question.

    Ramos is a US citizen.

    So today Trump has stated:

    * He won't prosecute Hillary
    * He likes Obama
    * He wants to keep an open mind to climate change
    * Disavowed the alt-right
    * Admitted he likes reading the NY Times
    * Wants to be the POTUS that brings peace to Palestine (good luck!)
    * He isn't a fan of the electoral college and prefers popular vote

    The difference is that there are extremely legitimate reasons this time around (sexual predator, lawsuits, racism, xenophobia, indecent behaviour), while there weren't last time (black man, democrat). I don't really understand how anyone can't see that.

    His fans will still love and defend him. It is, after all, a football game. He used to ride the bench for the blue team and now he's the starting QB for the red team. His stocking his staff with white nationalists will keep his base happy.

    Someone really needs to ask Jeff Sessions if he believes the President Elect can dictate who the Justice Department does and does not investigate.

    According to Conway the incoming Trump administration has no plans to pursue further investigations of Hillary Clinton. So he campaigned on this issue knowing there was nothing there. He promised his supporters he would appoint a special prosecutor knowing there was nothing there. And the Democrats handed him the issue by running her. Unreal.

    Stay tuned........
    Indeed. We can't have Obama pardoning the Clintons before Trump takes over. Hopefully this Trump statement keeps Obama from letting her off.
