They are so very (ultra sensitive) unless it is they that are throwing the stones.

I'm guessing no one's ever told you to go back where you came from and then called where came from a "complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world, if they have a functioning government at all."Even so, I still don't see anything racist in what he said.
Some of Trumps ideologies are anti-American. Can we tell him to go bank where he came from?Because to someone like me, this is how I might define racism. Take white supremacists, for example. They are clearly racists. They don't just hate some black people, they hate all black people, apparently. If a white supremacist were to tell a black person to go back to where their race was initially from, they would be meaning that about all black people, regardless. Trump wasn't meaning it in the same way. Trump wasn't lashing out at entire ethnicity groups, he was only lashing out at these 4 congress women in particular. But not because he was racist towards their ethnicity, but because some of their ideologies were anti-American, etc.
How about just a base reality we can agree on and go from there?What exactly is the goal of the left here then? Let's say that all Americans ended up agreeing that Trump's remarks were racist. What comes next? What should that result in? Trump publicly apologizing? Steps to begin removing him from office? What???

Wut?Not when it is Republican President Trump being targeted by Democrats who illegally obtained majority in the House last mid-term election.
It only gets worse when expounded upon.Wut?
Seems to me that the anaconda is in the White House

We need to be examining the entire tweet in question, in context, and not just the part where some are taking it to be racist. Why are some of you only focusing on a portion of that tweet rather than all of that tweet?

Why need every non Dem in this country to also find it racist?
Sharia law is the fundamental structure of their religion. There is no separation of church and state. They firmly believe in an order of governing with no place for democracy, Allah, Law, Imam, clergy, man, woman.It's almost fun to see the guy show up to a hate rally he probably didn't actually intend to lead that day.
Almost.
That the conservative audience went full out racist should surprise no one at this point. All the groundwork is in place, and the hatred, and racism is out in the open.
Has this person actually expressed a preference for Sharia Law or is that just some religious stereotype you've decided to slap upon every single Muslim ever?
I've read the entire thing, in context, many times. That he said other things doesn't make the racist part not racist. But even if you want to gloss over the racist bits, the rest of it doesn't make him look any better. The entire point (i.e. "if you don't like it, leave" or "go fix your homeland first") is disingenuous, hypocritical, and completely antithetical to the American system of government.
I don't think anyone is saying that Donald's racist rant means he hates the country.
Maybe Trump was actually making a valid point over all, except many of you can't see it because of the alleged racism you seem to only be seeing in his tweets?
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!
Seriously, why would someone being racist want someone to leave, yet come back at some point? No white supremacist, for example, would want someone they hate to go back to where they came from, yet are welcome to come back at a later time. Clearly the left are twisting these things into something nonsensical, as if someone being racist would want someone they are being racist towards , to leave, yet are welcome to come back at some point.
I see plenty of things in his tweets. Racism is one of those things, but it's not the only one. As I said, even absent the racism, the point was still hypocritical and disingenuous.
There are two overarching themes he's trying to communicate: 1.) It has a lot in common with the Obama birther conspiracy - nobody would've bought into that if Obama weren't black.
Why does that have to be because he is black? There are plenty of black people who have been born in this country, and that no one would even be disputing that to begin with. Why make it something about being black then, being the reason why? I personally don't buy that the birth certificate that was produced, that it was legit. And not because Obama is black. I get along with black people just fine, and have had many friends over the years who are black, yet I still don't feel Obama's birth certificate is even legit.
