    Ji.
    No it's not.

    Trump's comments were deliberately provocative, but they weren't racist by any stretch.

    So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how it is done. These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough. I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements!

    This is clearly a political statement and not a racist one.
    Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
    But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
    Than a fool in the eyes of God

      More so to the appeal of the baser instincts of his baser supporters, a.k.a. the basket of deplorables. The rest are trapped as members of the tribe wherein cognitive dissonance and rationalizing takes over.

          OK, that made me laugh.
          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            Now THERE is a good example of dehumanizing!

                  “America- love it or leave it” has been on bumper stickers for decades. But when Trump says it, it becomes “racist”

                      You consider the Democratic party in the US to be Communist?

                        How come the democrats are pushing all these small groups as the primary areas of problems then?

                        I'm not sure what you mean about all politics being about identity. It seems to be recent phenomena to hear so much division being promulgated.

                          The distance is between Trump and the Republican/Democrat leaders. Congress and its supporters didn't want an 'outsider' exposing the corrupt practices of the government.

                            Communism light, I certainly think it is the goal. Absolute state control.

                              Seriously?

                              You guys really lack a lot of perspective.
