I'd respect that answer too. At least we know where we stand with these guys and what they think is important.

tbh it is disappointing he didn't tell them to stop, and only voiced his displeasure about it the next day.

Call Omar a weirdo for marrying her brother, or criticize her antisemitism, don't say "send her back" when she's a legal citizen.

He only voiced the "displeasure " after realizing there was outrage.
By then the message of white supremacy has been received and understood by his supporters

Lie. I hope this is supposed to be ironic.

Yep. It's the dredges of what the political landscape is now, on here and and on a wider scale. Nothing good can come of it

[Northern Monkey]

He should’ve shut that down there and then.
Not only because it was a terrifying thing to behold but because he probably can’t win with just his core voters and this will undoubtedly alienate his black and latino voters.

Agreed, should have said "some supporters "
Not all trump supporters are racist but all racists are trump supporters

they're politicians... it's kinda their job to flag up issues with the running of the country... they don't deserve chants for their deportation for doing their job.

We had a bit of that here with judges being called enemies of the people and some mps branded as traitors
It's an old trick deployed by nationalists to try and grab a monopoly on patriotism
"You disagree with us therefore you hate your country"

Whataboutery

I have heard no evidence they're racist otherwise why would they accept white converts?
They're religious extremists which is not the same thing
They certainly are guilty of muslim supremacy delusion but that's religion based not race

I'd imagine any west hating muslims living in america and entitled to vote would vote trump bc his intolerant agenda serves their ends very well

Next time you spk to me it better be posting a link in a pm to one of your new fangled facepalm smiley things you were bragging about before...then I will edit this post.....again.

I think it's hilarious that she called Trump a racist, while she herself is an anti-Semite. But that's not as bad, right? That's acceptable.

People probably overlook it because they saw a meme which told them racism=power+prejudice

[LeatherTrumpet]

He actually said go away and then report back - quite a different sentiment

but then the media trolled y'all with the first part of the tweet for financial gain (it worked)


Its the MSM that everyone should be angry with for false reporting tbh

Well people just love to have a go at someone ,the media and others are obsessed with Trump and now Boris. I don't believe a lot of things I hear now as so much of it is twisted and lies.

Lies.

She criticised Israel which we are all entitled to do and considering the HUGE disparity between civilian deaths when it comes to Palestine and Israel, criticism of how they've handled the conflict is more than apt.

Trying to make her out to be an anti-semite for criticising Israel sets a dangerous precedent and is just another example of the right wing doing what they do best, lying, cheating, misleading and spinning the facts into falsities to suit their agenda.

You are so defensive when it comes to people accusing others of racism but you are so easy to slap people with the anti-semite label when you disagree with their views, Livia. Sort out your hypocrisy, please.

Or, you know, they did their research into what was actually said and didn't hang on to the false right wing narrative like you have?

Keep defending what is widely accepted as racism, I guess?
