So, all you conservatives out there--is Trump getting to r****t for America or do you think he is just right?

His naked appeals to white identity politics may appeal to some of his supporters—it's up to the rest of us to stand up against those appeals.

Fortunately standing up to Trump really isn't that hard--unless you are Ted Cruz...

President Donald J. Trump is not a r****t. He has never been a r****t. He will never be a r****t.

Turning the accusation into a mantra, and chanting it 24/7 will never make it true.

It simply places the chanter into a self-induced trance state.

Quote:

If in Mantra the psyche merely channels media information, and the subject has access to her own existence only in a fragmentary manner, then the attempts to achieve some form of totality--either in the form of a narrative self-understanding or in the form of a socio-historical, encompassing narrative--are doomed.

Define r****m and how you justify accusing not only president Trump but everyone who doesn't see the world through your jaundiced eyes as r****ts.

R****t (noun)

Anyone disagreeing with any "progressive" agenda.

ex: "I don't think it's fair that the Democrats in the city council raised property taxes two and a half per cent."

"That's because you're a r****t."

You make it sound like the t***sition from a bovine-brained daze, (which is normal for a Liberal) to a trance is a noteworthy accomplishment.

Smedley,

That was not my intent, however, any successfully completed cognitive process by a liberal is, indeed, a noteworthy accomplishment.

The remaining question is whether a trance is definitively superior to a daze.

A 1927 New York Times article about KKK arrests mentioned Donald Trump's father Fred, but the reporting was vague and inconclusive.

According to a New York Times article published in June 1927, a man with the name and address of Donald Trump’s father was arraigned after Klan members attacked cops in Queens, N.Y.

In 1927, Donald Trump’s father would have been 21 years old, and not yet a well-known figure. Multiple sources report his residence at the time — and throughout his life — at the same address.

To be clear, this is not proof that Trump senior — who would later go on to become a millionaire real estate developer — was a member of the Ku Klux Klan or even in attendance at the event. Despite sharing lawyers with the other men, it’s conceivable that he may have been an innocent bystander, falsely named, or otherwise the victim of mistaken identity during or following a chaotic event.

A person answering calls at the N.Y.C. Police Department’s Records Section said that arrest reports dating that far back were not available in any form.

BoingBoing included a copy of the New York Times article, with the source material available behind a paywall on the New York Times‘ web-based archive. That article reported a May 1927 “free-for-all battle” involving 100 policemen and 1,000 Klansmen in Jamaica, Queens:

The elder Trump’s name appeared once in the article, at the end of a portion headed “Prisoners are Arraigned.” Details about charges filed against other individuals were included, but Trump was simply said to have been “discharged” (with no further information about his overall involvement or lack thereof):

As BoingBoing stated, the information available in the article made it difficult to figure out whether Trump’s father was directly involved in the melee or was simply a bystander who coincidentally found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. Other persons were charged with various infractions ranging from felonious assault to disorderly behavior, but Trump wasn’t mentioned as having been cited for even minor criminal charges. According to BoingBoing, New York City no longer holds any information about arrests dating as far back as 1927, making it impossible to independently verify the original Times report.

While there is no evidence that Mr. Trump personally set the rental policies at his father’s properties, he was "on hand" ? while they were in place, working out of a cubicle in Trump Management’s Brooklyn offices as early as the summer of 1968.

Then and now, Mr. Trump has steadfastly denied any awareness of any discrimination at Trump properties. While Mr. Trump declined to be interviewed for this article, his general counsel, Alan Garten, said in a statement that there was “no merit to the allegations.” And there has been no suggestion of racial bias toward prospective residents in the luxury housing that Mr. Trump focused on as his career took off in Manhattan in the 1980s.

Donald Trump was not his Father's keeper.

A 1927 New York Times article about KKK arrests me... (show quote)

During the 1920s, the KKK was at its height in membership with 3 million. They had their famous march down Pennsylvania Avenue in August 1925. I have read that in many parts of the country, it was viewed as a civic type organization. I do not remember the source of that latter fact.

His dad, Fred Trump, was taken to court. Although most of the landlords charged were found guilty, they couldn't prove the case against him as there were more poor w****s refused apartments than the undercover poor black who was denied. So the civil rights organization who had brought and lost the case appealed and held up his businesses in court red tape for so long that Fred Trump finally offered to pay a fine if they dropped the appeal. Donald worked for his father at the time.
