True in general, but there is a small portion of people who cross over based on economic appeals. There were a lot of people who voted for Obama twice because he sounded like a populist outsider and generally had charisma and was relateable and then voted for Trump because he sounded similar. we can complain that Trump's racism should have been a disqualifier but it wasn't and it's not too much harm to sound more populist and not be racist. Those people are more concentrated in swing states than were the higher educated people that swung towards Hillary and that contributed to helping to Texas more blue but losing the electorally significant states. It's obviously not the golden key to electoral victory every time but it's something to think about.

Yeah the Negro baseball leagues were an outrage too. But you never hear the left complain about that kind of thing ever.

Sure, and there are always a small number of people whose lives are so dominated by a single issue that they may switch teams for a particular election. Even if you are a lifelong Republican, if you work for the Department of Transportation, you probably are not going to vote for a Republican candidate who promises to abolish the DoT.

And those historically black universities; How come there are no historically white universities? This reverse racism has to stop!

You should want to increase the popular vote margin as much as possible, as you might have to win by 5 million or more votes if your goal is to actually win the next election.

They'll need at least +6M to win 2020.

Russia appears to be turning on trump. They're gonna get their plan B--chaos in US.

conway is in the crowd in spicer press conf.

Could also post his recent quote about thinking it's a waste of time for Republicans to investigate Republicans

So you're laughing at suzzer and agreeing with the rest of the forum liberals? LOL why did you need to write a wordbomb to say that?

Clearly we need to make more racist Pepe the Frog memes to win the next election and win over the internet like conservatives did this year!

alive?

Tsao you really aren't winning me over here, you're going to make Trump win again in 2020 if your plan to make liberals see the light and protest #therightway is to be offensively stupid all over this thread.

OK, got it. Let's start with the current president. You know, the guy that for years kept saying the previous president was from Kenya. Or was that not racist?

See, here's the thing. Liberals are not trying to get people that voted for Trump to change their vote. We know they are a lost cause and can go **** off. Instead, what we are going to work on is getting more people to the polls.

Oh speaking of which, let's talk about voter suppression and disenfranchisement. You know...since you are saying to fight racism where it exists.

There is no way to tell.

Greatest post of all time.

Also I believe this is a prop from the upcoming movie, Taken 4.

Democrats wouldn't nominate a more racist candidate, though. Wink, wink racism has been a big part of the Republican platform for a while now, Trump just put it out into the open and it turned out that it didn't cause people to turn on him. Turns out Republicans either outright support racism or at least it doesn't deter them. At best they'll claim it's a concern but not really a priority because we need to deal with terrorism or the flagging economy or our troops or some other deflection. I think for most liberals and Democrats racial disparity is easily a top 5 and probably higher issue because it affects so many people and really the makeup of our country as a whole. That said there are plenty of old white Democrats who are racist, just not so much that it drives their voting decisions.

I'm no fan of Trump and thought the birther movement was ridiculous, but I never viewed it as racist. It was a very mean, incredibly stupid, and disrespectful way of trying to discredit a sitting president.

Some of you libs see things that just aren't there. But Obama is black so it must be racist!

Some Republicans are likely the same towards racism as all the other issues...if it doesn't affect me personally then it's not high on my priorities list.

Um... wait... huh?

KellyAnne apparently went full facepalm when Spicer was answering the awards show question lmao

she should be up there. but sexism and misogyny prevents her from being the face and voice of this white house. also, she has zero credibility with the press after a series of blatant lies and a free commercial for ivanka trump on live tv from the white house press room

Yeah if Tsao keeps this up I'm going to go back to vote for trump in 2020 for sure. I will show him.

You understand that the birther movement was fundamentally a racist movement?

John McCain was born in ****ing PANAMA and not one birther said a ****ing peep about it but you're right it totally wasn't racist.

Some of you cons are so willfully blind to racist dog whistles.
