Im trying to get a sense of who thinks the term sh*thole is racist? Im not so sure it is. I believe he referred to a northeastern state as a sh*thole, was that also racist?Smellyman said:I am shocked Trump would say racist things. Shocked.
Nobody could have seen this coming.

His comment doesn't even have to be racist. It's brutal without any racial connotations at all.
He's a f**king idiot. He proves it every day. Is there even any debate about this assertion of mine?
The big question is: how does the US move forward from this utterly embarrassing situation where it has elected a bona fide moron as its leader? Not only forward in how it unceremoniously dumps this fool... but also as it treats the ugly boils that boldly reared themselves from a place which many had hoped was nearly extinguished?"My brain's a good brain!"0 -

Context would help some people understand.
If the words are uttered from a known, long time racist in the midst of an immigration policy meeting...then 'yes'... the comment was racist (among many other things).
If such a comment was made between two sparring buddies on a message board having fun with each other... then 'no'... the comment would not be racist.
Does this help you understand? Do you get it now? Aren't you tiring of trying to defend the indefensible? Seriously... stick to the potato salad and detach from the pasty-white one."My brain's a good brain!"0 -
Im not trying to defend it, I actually said it was deroagatory and shouldnt have been said nor am do I care to discuss whether or not Trump is racist, Im simply asking if the term is used to reference an "undesirable" place is it racist. BTW - it wasnt until Trump decided to run did I ever hear anything about being racist but go ahead a pull out the 1978 rental application for his fathers apartment building, we have already been over that.Thirty Bills Unpaid said:JC29856 said:

he's a fucking idiot and a terrible president, but that statement in and of itself is not inherently racist. but coming from a known racist, it can most likely be construed that way.JC29856 said:

What we think is irrelevant in the bigger picture. Here’s my suggestion to you 3D, why don’t you go to Little Haiti in Miami or a predominately Salvadoran neighborhood on Long Island or LA and stop a random sampling of 200 people, ask them where they’re from originally or where they’re parents came from, and if they answer Haiti or El Salvador, tell them you heard it was a shithole there and ask if it’s true. When you’ve got 100 responses regarding each country, report back your findings.JC29856 said:

When you use a derogatory term in relation to African Countries and Haiti and then immediately follow it up with your preference for people from Norway it is definitely RACIST

Trump's comments yesterday are a textbook example of Trump voters getting exactly what they voted for.
