The Trump movement has ZERO to do with race.

He funded HBCUs for 10+ years
He started opportunity zones
Prison reform
Etc etc.

What we fear is an enlarging demographic that has been indoctrinated in identity politics and will vote 95% democrat no matter what.

We aren’t the ones telling people they have to vote a certain way because of their skin color. That’s the democrats.


You do not speak only for yourself. Very well done.

Same here.

The reason I like talking about it, is because it's one of the sacrosanct issues of the Left....and I absolutely love destroying their dogma about it.

Yeah those people exist. Idk how many of them there are. I don't see them in my life anymore. I live in a nonracial area judging by that standard.

What’s wrong with Confederate flags? I think
this nation would be much better off with state’s rights. Just look at what the largest federal government in the history of mankind has gotten us.

I feel the media does not understand race in America.


They understand that they can continue to push a narrative that perpetuates whites are holding blacks and browns down and that narrative fuels the black and brown outrage as well as the white guilt that drives their viewership, readership, clicks and sales while also causing the civil unrest that helps drive even more of their viewership, readership, clicks and sales.

And that's all they really care to understand.

Unfortunately the MSM still has credit with some people, and this number was likely to be significantly higher when Trump began running for President. There was a hit on Trump's character from day one and race was used as a primary target for attack, and maybe the only.

I think one result of Trump's erroneous portrayal as a racist could be actual racists who keep to themselves, being more likely to not keep to themselves in Trump's defense. Which further perpetuates the false narrative, especially if caught on camera.

There's an overly manufactured element to the way race is viewed in America right now. Unless Joe Biden is deemed to wake up racist one day soon, I think the race narrative takes a back seat to the past 5-6 years.

I’m just saying, people fear how other groups will vote more than what kind of food they eat or how they talk.

Would you honestly be worried if Latinos voted along the policies or Rand Paul or Ted Cruz? I’d say hell yea bring them all in and let’s have a party.

We are scared that they will change the concept of our country. It’s founding principles.

We aren’t afraid of our culture changing.

I am perfectly fine with myself and all Americans (and all people) being judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.


That would be swell.

Democrats don't want to be identified as equal. "Don't let one bad person speak for all the good ones" was echoed during all the riots and looting. It's a good message as I believe most live by it. Judge each man by his own actions.

But let ONE Republican say something wrong or do something wrong and every one of them is judged as a fricking group.

If your serious I would welcome that conversation, I was blessed to be raised in a household that the only race that was discussed was the human race. I recently retired from the South Texas Nuclear Power Plant, so I’m a mature man ( I use the word mature instead of old now that I’m mature). I believe education is key to ending racism, not just 123 ABC, but about each other. I have never disliked someone based on skin tone, but I must confess several times on college team selection,.

I believe Americans of all races get along with each other just fine if they would just leave us the frick alone and stop trying to race-bait people with bullshite all the time.




Yep, the more they talk about race, the more division they are creating!! People don't want to hear all the b.s., we are who we are, they are not going to change our opinion on who we like or don't like. But pure racism? I think for the most part, it doesn't exist, especially the media obsession with something called 'white supremacy'. Has anyone ever met or known a white supremacist?? This term is so overused that it needs to be thrown out of our vernacular, it is a lie. Besides, if the media really wants to continue their fishing expedition by calling Trump supporters white supremacist, then why aren't they attacking blacks associated with the NAACP, The New Black Panther Party & BLM? These are all organizations that are pushing for superior rights of one race...so if the media really wants to continue their anti-white narrative, then they need to call out the black organizations that openly pursue an agenda of black favoritism, because all races already have equal rights...the problem is those that want special rights. This also applies to all the gender fanatics out there- I don't give a damn if a person is gay or whatever; my problem is when you think you should be treated more special than the rest of us, just because you have some issue you believe makes you a minority. People shouldn't have to walk around an office on eggshells because they are afraid to say something 'offensive'. This all needs to stop!

And it's true I saw a couple confederate flags at the Capitol.


I saw a couple of Confederate flags in Upper State NY last summer. Bunch of young guys in a pick up truck.

Driving through Elmira NY, I saw this in a Confederate cemetery. The good Christians of Elmira tried to help, but the liquidation was political and intentional.
