Trump Echoes Segregationist George Wallace On Race In America | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Trump is a dark cloud on American democracy and civility. There is no silver lining, only poison in this cloud.
@ms 3533 Judging by your comment,
I can tell you don’t have a relation with a woman.
I can tell you how to make any woman say ‘yes’.
Just ask her if you’re bothering her.
ms 3533, Ok nut job, sure. Seems someone might be off their meds today
he* has helped elect more liberals than any one in my lifetime
@ms 3533
Trump only speaks in childish, witless clichés.
He’s never had an original thought,
like you.
@PAjeannie66 my point is the hate and division is and has been on the left for quite some time! Trump and people like myself want all Americans to unite as Americans, the greatest and most free people in the history of all of humanity! It truly amazes me how hate blinds the left the way it does today! Trump 2020
I like how he says he is not racist but on one of his adds he has the confederate flag and we all should know what that is or you haven’t learned a thing
@Eastern Woods He’s a man-child minus the man. https://youtu.be/Qpfa6jMCn4U
@Freedom Essence Trump uses expletives, it’s a bragging technique. He insists he knows more about everything than anyone. https://youtu.be/5GqJna9hpTE
He did not say : He’s not a racist
He said am a small racist.
A little racist.
Not mega racist.
@Edwin Kevin – *Just a MAGA Racist, then?*
@Dan L https://www.newsmax.com/jackbrewer/trump-obama-hbcu-food-stamps/2019/07/12/id/924217/ The kkk is a democrat created organization.
Trump’s Nazi father pressured a doctor, whose offices were in Trump’s building, to write a false report that the Donald had Bone Spurs to keep him out of the war.
Sound familiar?
Yep sounlds like every president we have had in the last 40 years, mccain would have been the first one to serve in along time
@Kris Smiley ,Jimmy Carter.
JFK
@Ann van de Kew I said the last 40 years
LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON.
yep!!
Trump’s mantra, My authority is total but I don’t take responsibility at all.
@Lisa Elissa
He reminds me more of this version of Manson than Wallace:
https://youtu.be/oGL_H3p_cMo
@Timurphy was here ‘Manson’ portrayed in this video has a more advanced vocabulary than Trump, lol. Thanks for the link!
His body language speaks volumes. Especially when he hug’s himself in insecurities like his mother never did & his father didn’t want to.
@Teej’s Folly Trump likes using expletives when he describes himself. He insists he knows more about everything than anyone for example. https://youtu.be/5GqJna9hpTE
TRUMP: AM PRESIDENT BUT I HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITIES AS PRESIDENT.
He is a useless human bing do not pay attention just VOTE!!!!!!, for your life and for beloved America!!!!!!!.
Genet. There Is nothing Human attached to his Suit. He Is An Ancient Monster that wasn’t Properly Destroyed In the Laboratory Pietre Dish After A Biological Experiment Went Horribly Wrong. A Blob of Vile, Satanic, Demonic Mass took form and emerged Into A Foreign Land that he should Not be In. .
@Genet Genet — In Scotland a ‘bing’ is a slag heap built from the waste from a coal mine.
I know you made a slight spelling error , but descriptively it fits perfectly, thanks for the chuckle.
@Linda PS A great actor, Gregory Peck starred in a prophetic1978 movie. Many sequels have since been made, (see the current events,similarities?)
those warnings went out,
but sadly, were ignored.
@Linda PS https://www.newsmax.com/jackbrewer/trump-obama-hbcu-food-stamps/2019/07/12/id/924217/ So you hate Black people?
SAVE AMERICA, VOTE THE DEMON TRUMP OUR IN NOVEMBER, 2020.
“Law and order” is right-wing code for crushing dissent.

I think we should segregate Trump from society by putting him into a nice cell
The best cell , the most magnificent cell, you’ll never see better cell… all for Donnie, the most treacherous bunker boy you’ll ever know.
The orange suit goes nicely with his hair 😁
@Patty Kelly I think a cage is more fitting
@Ken Bugbee Same question, to a different fool this time: I’ve never been to Russia, is it nice??
Make sure it is well padded.
He a hypocrite!! He loves law and order but breaks the law every chance he gets!!
@Helene Flamand No, state crimes cannot be pardoned!!!
Yes, only he can cheat and lie, but nobody else.
This is the only president who pardon the criminal b 4 they even set foot in prison.
Professor Farmgirl
PREACH!!
@Dienie Fay America has always rejected him, he is the only POTUS who has never risen above 49% approval. How he achieved that I’ll never understand, but whatayagonnado? The shame is what evangelicals have become. They are a political party, not a religion. This isn’t Iran. Here in American we have separation of church and state because we believe in freedom.
The wisdom of our stable genius seems to equal zero divided by infinity.
@coin420 Hehe, you misspelled “misspelled”….😉
@coin420
Thank you
I have edited my typo
*Trashy Trump’s Turds won’t get it but think is a complement, because there’s math involved!*
I guess that really approximates zero more than any other function 🙂
Lol, great illustration.
If Trump ends up in prison, he will get a real lesson in race relations.
If he ends up in prison, a lot of people will get to see if “Trump Tower” Is For Real
People like Trump don’t see other prisoners in prison. At worst, what he’ll have will be similar to house arrest at a Motel 6.
1ShotKestrel really? Come November 4 more years of Trump!
joker3092 it’s for real alright !
@ms 3533 look! An uneducated Trump voter
“They some good people” plus” I don’t take responsibility at all”
It 2020 and yet we are live in the past plus we have airhead as president
@Aeleks Johnson
The problem is, it doesn’t address who “they” are nor what responsibility he does not accept.
He doesn’t have to take responsibility for everything on the planet and there are some fine people in this country. If you disagree with those things you are just plain dishonest.
The original poster misquoted the president.
@Albert Green Whatever………….
@Aeleks Johnson
To be honest, that’s a more thoughtful response than expected from people like you. Thank you. Have a good day.
@Albert Green Nothing else needs to be said. Stay safe in this crazy nation we survive in today.
@ablert green hey don’t bring the Kung flu here
Note, he says he’s the least racist. Not that he’s NOT a racist.
@Donnie Darko republican steve king would like a word with you. as would donald trump.
@Jason Oquinn no there’s no covid then? you sound about as smart as trump… and in case you were wondering, that’s not a good thing.
@Jason Oquinn did the governors disband our pandemic defense team in 2018?
@velt Ski “black people counting my money.. i hate it!”
– donald j. trump
@vman armand well, i guess no president has ever made a mistake before Trump, huh? Wow, such outrage just because he is conservative…..and i thought liberals were the tolerant ones……lmaoal………
Oh my god, there is a Monster in the White House regurgitating Hatred & creating Strife in everyday life. If ppl of every color don’t react to #DerangedDonald & vote him out of office, then they must be Deranged as well. Man, we’ve got to get this Madman out of office before it’s too late. It may already be too late. #GetOutTheVote #NoMoreYears
He’s not mad… he’s very cute at playing the White Supremist,Evangelist card
The people who vote for him are missing a gene….they are just a step up from apes. They are the mad
fuc* red.
So supporting the police is evil.😂
@Tomas Coppinger fk you.
@Tanner 101 Yes, defund the police NOW.
https://www.newsmax.com/jackbrewer/trump-obama-hbcu-food-stamps/2019/07/12/id/924217/ Wow so evil. Did more in four years to help people that Obama in eight.
What Profits a man, should he gain the whole world, and loses his Soul?
A SOULESS ONE.!!!!!!
POTUS is a world leader. Supposed to be! If soulless, we are all the looser.
@Peter Costa I don’t believe George would approve of what is happening in this country, along with the majority of the sane American people. No Peace
Apparently the presidency…and most likely a Trump tower in Moscow for great service to the communists
+Walter Parris- Well said! Trump is the biblical example of a person who loves the world, lusts after riches, seeks only the things of the world, in direct contrast to God’s Word that says “whosoever loves this world is an enemy of God (James 4:4; 1 John 2:15), and like you quoted” “what does it profit a man should he gain the whole world and lose his soul”…”what will a man give in exchange for his soul.” Well, this is the course of Donald Trump’s entire life. He has a STRONG AFFECTION for the world and the lusts of riches thereof, the pride of life, and in particular the love of money, and in ALL of this he totally and completely ignores God! Well as you and I know, God’s Word in the New Testament bible says that God holds all people responsible to know him (Romans 1:19-20), and whosoever is a friend of the world is an enemy of God (James 4:4). And lastly, “Satan is the god of this age” (2 Cor 4:4).
The problem is, however, that there are many in the US who think they ARE protecting their souls by supporting Trump, who they think will return US culture back to what they think is a Christian one.
Trump Daddy was arrested at KKK rally back in the day.
So happy that someone mentioned this little tidbit….. if his dad was involved with the kkk…you better know that Donald is aware……
We need some better Independent Presidential Candidates.
We can write in any name we wish on our ballots.
U.S. voters need more third-party options for president

Both Democrats and Republicans have become too corrupt and only for the rich, large companies and banks.
Both parties at different times have supported protests,
Which included Armed protesters.
Obama was President for 8 years,
he didn’t call Americans racist when he was elected.
If America is so racist,
why didn’t Obama speak up and do something about it?
Biden was Obama’s Vice President for 8 YEARS.
Martin Luther King – His protests carried no guns, took no lives, killed no children, didn’t burn and loot any businesses, didn’t damage and destroy property and terrorize neighborhoods.
Democrats have been Unwilling to stand up and separate Peaceful, Unarmed, Non-Violent Protests,
From Violent Riots.
Instead they have Supported and Encouraged the Riots.
This has been the Nastiest,
most Divisive,
and Deadliest,
Presidential campaign year. COVID-19 and Riots.
Republicans and Democrats have taken sides for 2 deadly enemies,
COVID-19 or Riots
I chose NEITHER
I am so Angry at Both sides of our Politicians and Media.
They have chosen to play their game of extremes at the cost of the American People and at the cost of American Unity.
Can we put humpty dumpty back together again after everything that’s happened this year, and the year is only 1/2 over!😡😰

“The word is so overused.” Only a racist would say that. Smh.
Nice analogy huh
Haleem Muhammad
You just made that comparison yourself. You’re propping up a strawman because you can’t make any actual points, or contribute to the conversation constructively.
Treacherous I said what I said. I meant what I said you don’t have to like it. Have a Good day
Haleem Muhammad
You don’t make any clear position. There’s nothing to like or dislike about your opinion because it’s empty.
@GoldenState Kind of like cousins that may be brothers, or uncle fathers.
The sad thing is 32% thinks he’s handling it ok.
25% of Americans never graduate high school.
@srgreeniii Yeah, NO. Here:

Educate yourself.
That’s bad for America.
@birdlynn hubbard Not really. It’s only bad for those who number among that 32%.
@srgreeniii the ones that don’t graduate also have no clue what 25% is either
