Red has called the SPLC "racist" at least one more time than he's called Donald Trump the same.
Which means what?

It means that we know you are full of shit, as well as your being an amoral racist hypocrite.
Really? Please explain.

You ignore your own party's racist conduct, including that of your president.

In other words, nothing new.

Who says any of it is ignored?

Ever read any post by Ward in which he acknowledged that his party was engaged in racist activities?

If so, what was the topic?

Kushner Co.? 

So you want every WH employee to make their returns public?

He's a volunteer.

He's family.

I want every family member given a high position and influence whose security clearance is rejected until Presidential intervention to have their returns made public, yes. There is reason to suspect conflict of interest.

Behind the times, Trish. (Reminds me of somebody I used to know!)

Trump punted on this stuff, telling Congress to fix it.

It is not a Trump backer's lot in life to post about Trump transgressions.  That is just not how it works.

Doesnt mean Trump backers feel he is perfect. 

A solid President, despite obvious social flaws?   Now you have something.  But that is not what you post, so how do you expect any agreement?

Maybe Nielsen can avoid extradition if she moves to Honduras.

Kid has no idea how dirty, how intermingled, or how dirtily intermingled trump and kushner’s debt loads are. We can’t talk about assets because their aren’t any, so it’s about their liabilities as any returns will show.

The only way in which trump could be considered a solid president is that he’s a piece of solid shit. I’m glad you still find him delicious.

Not for amoral hypocrites, you're right.

Of course, he (and thee) jump all over Dems if they don't castigate our straying officials and spokesmen, because double standards are your standard way of doing business.

But here you are, making an argument with no evidence to support your position. What else is new?

It's not hypocritical at all.

Believing in policies delivered by a less than perfect human is nothing to be sorry for.

For your part, never totally dismissing a candidate out of hand should be the lesson.   Rather than treat candidate Trump how you did - a preference for a different opponent maybe  have been your stance.

But that is for you to ponder as we enter the 2020 and 2024 cycles.

Kid does make a good point in one sense. We should have locked him up the first time he said “lock her up”. It’s been straight crime spree from his fascist cabal since that moment forward if not before.

GOP rhetoric towards their opponents is straight projection. Knowing they are terrible people, the look into themselves and whatever dark secret about themselves gives them the most dick shriveling embarrassment is what they accuse their opponents of doing. This is why trump fits so well into republican culture. Projection and puffery is all he has.

The policies, when there is enough competence to enact any, are worse than the people.

Which has nothing to do with the topic at hand, Kiiid, and you know it.

However, you ask how I know that the racist stuff is being ignored and you demonstrated it right here.

Thank you!

Trump's being confused about "Jewish People" and "Israelis" is perfectly understandable..
Israel after all is "The Jewish State".

Your apologism is duly noted.

Speaking as a Jewish person, I disagree. 40% of the world's Jewish population lives in the United States.
