There are some parallels there, as with any politician with a strong following. It's the nature of our two party system. Pick a side and defend it no matter what. Not all, but yes a lot.BS44325 said:

You just can't say the two are the same. Obama wasn't advocating violence and trying to push civil rights backwards.
For the record, I am not a huge Obama supporter. I think there is a large hypocrisy in someone who accepted a Nobel Peace Prize and then proceeded to continue drone strikes around the middle east. For all the good he has done, I don't give anybody a pass on dropping actual bombs on people.0 -
i worry about money too. the koch brothers have largely stayed out of this one so far. they have $500 million set aside for 2016 elections and it is at their disposal. they are going to throw all of that money behind the nominee and will try to destroy clinton or sanders with it. they will use the same trump "play to the angry white man" strategy that trump is using. this will be the dirtiest general election campaign of my lifetime.CH156378 said:
I don't see it. They hate Obama and he won. Twice. I worry about voter turnout in the left more.gimmesometruth27 said:

Trump is a racist. I'm not going to repeat the evidence that has been stated numerous times on these threads. Sorry if that sounds like a cop-out but I'm not a carpenter in a circular room looking for a corner to pee in.BS44325 said:
Again...I am not a Trump supporter but I don't find him to be a racist. This continues to be the problem with all you haters. It is not rational. You should listen to this pastor's introduction to understand where his supporters are coming frombrianlux said:

I'm not talking about economics of abortion or other issues that could be interpreted as having grey areas. I'm talking about Donald Trump, a man who is running for POTUS on a racist, hate based platform. If you can say, "Yes, I support that agenda" then say so. Tell us why you hate blacks and Hispanics. Tell us why it's ok in your viewpoint for Trump to encourage his followers to use violence against his opponents. Tell us why its ok for Trump to refer to immigrants as “illegals” and the children of illegal immigrants as “anchor babies". Tell us why you think these things are ok. And after you do that, please stop arguing about why some of us wonder why the hell you want to argue those points here.
I don't care if you are fiscally conservative or you hate granola or believe those of us who are in favor of peace are naive but if you support someone like Trump who promotes hate you are not going to get one inch of slack from me. Sorry, but I don't buy that kind of bullshit. No way.
You must watch MSNBC too much as well as Rev. Al Sharpton's daily racist comments against whites and Republicans as a whole.

And why on earth do you think I watch MSNBC? WTF?

And yes, I must not understand that Trump is a "racist". Please thoroughly educate me why.
And your question about what news station I'm talking about, is clearly about MSNBC since that's what I clearly said. Pay attention
You don't see any racism in a Muslim ban? I know, I know, Muslim isn't a race...isn't really relevant though, only semantic.
And I'm not gonna lie, the Muslim ban did have me thinking for a bit if I supported it or not. But I soon realized that the majority of radical Islamic terrorists are Muslim. And there is a real threat hanging over our heads of secret members of ISIS flying in the US with a passport and getting in easily.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. And this is a temporary ban. A ban that will be put in place until the problem can be solved.
So, if Al Sharpton said that he assumes some whites are good people, that wouldn't be racist to you? Yeah, fuckin' right.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -

when was obama being outright racist on the campaign trail? when was he anti muslim? when was he speaking from outright anger and emotion devoid of critical thinking? when did he advocate violence against protesters? when did he say that people need to go and beat up mccain supporters?
protesters show up because they do not like his message. they do not like his rhetoric. he is talking about taking civil rights away from people who's parents fought for those very rights. you try to take rights away from african americans or latinos and they are going to resist. white people like me will help them resist, because it is the right thing to do.
don't ever compare obama's supporters on the campaign trail to trump's.
White Americans "clinging to their guns and religion"
Telling his supporters to "argue with their neighbours and get in their faces"
Atteneding the church of Jeremiah Wright for many years when he is an anti-semite.
does arguing with neighbors and get in their faces = take people out on stretchers and punch them in the face?

Anyone remember that movie They Live with the late great Rowdy Roddy Piper? Those glasses seeing aliens.
That's how it feels here sometimes - not just here, either - but still...like that through the glass view allows deeming HEY! You fucking kumbayah-ing liberal. And YOU! Fucking conservative racist. Fuck you for being white, too.
Fuck you for every preconception and assumption.
Absurd.
Don't people get sick of this shit at some point? Or is it sucked up and spewed with such enjoyment as it seems to be?
Is it really so beyond the realm of comprehension and subsequent acceptance that many people embrace many views, even some conflicting? On a basic front, that one can be fiscally conservative yet pro-choice and supporting gay marriage? That one can want to provide assistance to those who need it at that time but want those handling it to not squander or mis-handle the funds to do so? To apply common sense alongside compassion?
Fuck, we teach our children about tolerance but act like asshats toward others. Sometimes this shit is like watching kids fighting on the playground and calling eachother doodyheads.

I get where you are coming from, but it seems a little preachy. You rarely take sides on issues, you usually just leave comments like this one.
