Yep think you are right but i never hold any store in what trump tweets, think everyone knows he sits on the bog and thinks of things that will get him on the front page that day.How anyone can get offended by him beats me he contradicts himself every day of the week so i just dont take any notice.

Do they tell us anything we did not already know?

Nope.

Put all these remarks together - from the shit-hole countries to his love of blonde Norwegians, the damn fine people taking part in a neo-Nazi demo, and now this - and the conclusion is inescapable.

No wonder he was an inspiration for the Christchurch terrorist.

as racial tropes go "go back home" is about the number 1 one that would send me apoplectic....

as distractions for a million and one things, taking it "there" is just way too far.....

but yeah... why anyone believes he isn't racist now is beyond me.....

Unacceptable from any normal human being let alone a Leader of a Country.

Hopefully not doing his chances of reelection any favours.

You ignored boris and his use of Slave master terms for children and his racism and he's going to be pm in weeks.

Your now ignoring trumps racism.

So it's fair to say you ignore the racism of the conservatives ...

Yes, he is a racist.

He is also an idiot.

As is typical of Racists, he makes racist remarks and then claims that he's not a racist by somehow attempting to justify such comments by claiming something like having an immigrant in his cabinet or something.

I read a fascinating piece speculating how obstinate he would be in vacating the White House in the event he loses the 2020 election. A dummy spit of epic proportions.

I feel that what Trump says is totally unexetable and would be here but in the US he gets away with it.

America is either very liberal or very racist two very great extremes not many shades of grey I found when there.Around 30 years ago I spend sometime in California and found people where very set in there views,many racist many liberal.My friend who lived there was married to a Mexican girl and had two half Mexican boys.They had a tough time at school and the family did have problems,not where they lived as they had great naighbours but in general when out together.

That was 30 years ago but it seems that things have not moved on.In this country they have moved forward a bit but the British are very two faced on this matter,many pretend not to be racist but they are.

Because the USA sets the tone internationally.

America has significantly more power and money than any country other than China.

You see this normalised everyday and it becomes the norm.

You have denied this is the same for the immigrant bashing in the UK because you don't experience it, but trust me those of us who are not obviously white British do.

It's not something that I am able to "relax" about because I live it.

You always seemed to be somebody who had some empathy.

iv got lots of empathy but getting a hard on over someone who gets off on it who isn’t the leader of the country I live in doesn’t float my boat iv said he’s a cunt what else you want me to do cry about a tweet from a loonie he doesn’t set the tone in the U.K. because most ppl know what he says makes no difference here I just don’t get why ppl jump up and down about him and say nothing about other loonies like I said it seems to me to be the cool thing atm

Never voted labour sorry that don't stick son.Unlike your need to defend racists and racist language.Thats a stain that's hard to wash out.

If trump had singled out 4 Jews and told them to go back home you'd have something to say..

It's sad your politics blinds you to his dangerous white nationalism .

You defend the language of racists you seem to think if you say nigger in 2002 we should forgot about it in 2019.As if it happened in the 18th century.

You make excuses and play down trumps racism and he's a racist .Thus defending both boris and trump

I think you will find he said pickinnie and yes times have moved on thank god but you are obsessed with it. Not to mention that he did apologize after if it caused anyone offense so i am not going to change my view on a guy because of that and it was rather a good article.As for trump when have i ever defended him? as i said before he is not the leader of my country and i really couldnt give a toss what he tweets i dont do twitter and if people didnt keep getting worked up about what he said i would be none the wiser.still waiting for your reply on corbyns anti semitism your silence speaks words.

I cannot see too many people spending too much time analysing tweets Cyberland is very different to the real world.

It is for the citizens of USA to judge their president . There was an excellent letter in a British Newspaper yesterday about what a great job he is doing .His mission is to make America great again.He has restored American national pride and boosted the economy. The USA stock exchange is at an all time high. What a great endorsement of Trump and his policies.

It is probably best to base judgement on the silent minority, not the vocal minority who constantly criticise him. British investors in the Ashstread Group will have no complaints about his economic policies and the impact on the share price

Not any more, I'd argue. Not under Trump.

The global order that the US forged and upheld after the Second World War is evaporating before our eyes.

American influence is used now for one thing and one thing only - to "make America great again".

All the levers of the state, all the international alliances, are being re-tuned for one single objective - to increase the sale of American goods and products to the rest of the world.

America First is America alone, as the Chinese say.

"If trump was leader during the 1930s and 40s, I bet he would have loved Hitler. "

The 1983 American Heritage Dictionary defined fascism as: “A system of government that exercises a dictatorship of the extreme right, typically through the merging of state and business leadership, together with belligerent nationalism.”

Mussolini (or Gentile): “Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.”

US vice-president Henry Wallace: “The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact. Their newspapers and propaganda carefully cultivate every fissure of disunity, every crack in the common front against fascism.”

“They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.”

It seems strange that "a politician" would attack 4 other politicians for criticising, disliking or wanting change, when that is why politician run for office.

It's also strange that the commentary on Trumps language of 'go back home if you don't like this place', doesn't seem to be pulling Trump up on First Amendment rights. The same freedom of speech he is using - with racist language.

He is using racism but arguing with a racist you are rolling with a pig in shit. Though an American saying 'I can criticise whatever, as I have the freedom to', would take race out of the question or focus on it.

People are instead only focused on Trumps language and the racism behind it instead of their rights to dislike anything they see unfit. It is almost a race to see who is the most American and too, a given that his freedom of speech rules theirs.

i think we are almost having two set of conversations at the same time here....

one of them is amongst "people of colour".. which is have you ever had the go home/go back to where you came from trope thrown at you.... I have yet to hear one that has said no! it now feels like a weird "rite of passage"...

and then you get the likes of pat.... which is "i've never had it thrown at me... so it can't be that bad!"

excusing the racist language to try to make some larger political point....

the ironic thing is that republicans are trying to say it wasn't racist... but the one black male republican member of congress, and the one black male republican member of the senate, have both said that to them it was racist! do you think they should have chatted to them?

I don't think my last paragraph was worded as well as it could have been, they were just thoughts at 1am..

I am meaning Murica seems to be turning into a rich v's poor a white v's other nation, where Donald is "freely" able to portray that go get 'em meme, if you like. Civil rights are only just being brought into question with Trumps wives and likely other who were not seen as being born there.

I have only seen one or two black congressman/politicians .. the last one I saw was shouting too much so never bothered listening to what he was saying.

There will no doubt be an indictment at some point and his house will crumble.

I'm sorry I disagree with you.

Setting aside the four women if he'd said this to say Boris Johnson would anybody think it was racism?, what about if he'd said it to Diane Abbott?.

If he wanted to have a go at just her he could have said go back to your husband/brother you tax evading, immigration dodging, race bating bitch.

That would have been accurate and not at all racist.

Go back to where you came from is a ridiculous statement, how far back 50 years 100 a 1000,50000.

If a politician said that about an ethic group in this country they'd be retired. He's using words like "these people" and "they should go back home" ... He's the supposed leader of the free world.

Specifically using someone's ethnicity to insult or belittle them or treat them unfairly or imply that they have no place in society.

Telling someone to "go back" to the country they were not born or raised in from the one in which they were is racist.

Childish things are said and done out of foolishness or ignorance.

This is not childish.

So, again, what is racist in your opinion? Anything?

And in context as he was digging at the one congress woman who attacks America and supports her place of birth values, didn’t his tweet say something like why don’t you go home fix the problems there and come back and show us how it’s done ?

He could have apologized,but no he's basically said some have hated the tweets some have loved it and that lots loved it.

The people who love it,are the racists who support such terming.

He should take account of what he said and apologize instead of acting like a child and thinking he is also untouchable.

Using the "go back to your own country", has been consistent in my life as an experience by people assuming,an assumption born from a racist outlook.

Take away semantics and just fucking admit it's a dangerous thing to say as a leader of a nation.

Read the tweet before you comment on it.

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!

Of you have been told to go home throughout your life and it has never hurt or upset you then you are quite unique.

What was the intent of the people who said that to you do you think?

He was being racist. His intent was to insult and to specifically use those women's ethnic backgrounds to insult them.

If you really don't think that was his intent and wish to pedantically argue the minutiae then you carry on but that is more about your ego than the matter being discussed.

I don't actually disagree with your broad outlook on many of the threads, but this is an odd point to argue.

So again in general there is no “ go back to where you bloody come from and never come back bla bla bla “ as that’s 100% racist

Generally he said go back, fix the problems, come back and show us how it’s done

Starting to think this isn’t even racist at all, of course if you hate him or think the worst and look for the bad in everyone you can take a different meaning and make it racist, but just the words,,, I’m not sure it is

"Think his tweets definitely can be taken as racist 100%, ( not sticking up for trump on this )

Not sure if that was his aim really as he was taking a dig at one person ( dosent make it right I know )

Is trump racist, I’m not sure. Is trump a dic as a person, 100% yes.

I'm not entirely sure what he said is racist to be honest.

Stupid, unhelpful, childish, petty I just don't see the racism.

The one congress woman he was going after has said awful things about America as well as comments in favour of ISIS, she won’t condemn isis or antifa,

Other reports are saying this tweet was deliberate to draw the media attention away from a bill he just signed to be past

I just don’t know.

Setting aside the four women if he'd said this to say Boris Johnson would anybody think it was racism?, what about if he'd said it to Diane Abbott?.

Go back to where you came from is a ridiculous statement, how far back 50 years 100 a 1000,50000.

It's childish I just don't see how it's racist.

No. You don't seem to quite get racism.

What would be racist in your opinion?.

Could you elaborate on how it is, maybe then I could grasp it?.

Specifically using someone's ethnicity to insult or belittle them or treat them unfairly or imply that they have no place in society.

Telling someone to "go back" to the country they were not born or raised in from the one in which they were is racist.

Childish things are said and done out of foolishness or ignorance.

This is not childish.

So, again, what is racist in your opinion? Anything?

Don’t think he mentioned any ethnicity did he

Stupid tweet yes, racist maybe

Was it meant to be racist I didn’t think so

Read the tweet before you comment on it.

....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!

So I was right then in general ?

So this is the exact words

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.

So again in general there is no “ go back to where you bloody come from and never come back bla bla bla “ as that’s 100% racist

They don't come from there. They didn't leave those places. They are as American as he is.

Have you ever been told to go back to where you came from?

If someone said that to someone from my background, as they have, what do you think they mean by it?

Are you telling me that the USA isn't broken and crime-infested?

I struggle to see how you can say he wasn't being racist, it's just the words )and presumably their order and overall meaning) that "seem" to be.

I think people especially those on this site should forget what is going on in America .Ireland takes in asylum seekers. Put them in old unused summer camps and hotels for years gives them 2euros a week .and won't let them work.italy won't let the ship's dock in their ports and leave women and children on board for weeks .Greece treats them like animals ..great Britain blocks them at French port of calies. Crime is rife with multiple stabbing every day ....the old saying ..people in glasshouses shouldn't throw stones

He never mentioned their ethnicity?.

Never mind. If you won't answer a direct question, you won't answer a direct question.

Well done you on understanding words but not meaning.

That is usually down to a lack of empathy or trying to be clever.

Carry on

What are you on about, you said using someone's ethnicity to insult them is racist, I agree on that, I said he didn't mention there ethnicity though so I struggle to see how it's racist in intent.

My answer is the Definition of racism - prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

Nationality is a proxy for race. It's an easy concept to grasp.

Have you ever been told to "go back to your own country"? To "go back to where you came from"? What do you think the intent is when it is said to someone of my ethnicity?

You can be racist without claiming superiority..

Of you have been told to go home throughout your life and it has never hurt or upset you then you are quite unique.

What was the intent of the people who said that to you do you think?

He was being racist. His intent was to insult and to specifically use those women's ethnic backgrounds to insult them.

If you really don't think that was his intent and wish to pedantically argue the minutiae then you carry on but that is more about your ego than the matter being discussed.

I don't actually disagree with your broad outlook on many of the threads, but this is an odd point to argue."
.

No I never got upset by it, once or twice when my child received it but I think as parents we get upset at all forms of rejection towards are children, it's an emotive subject at the best of times.

Im maybe of that interesting point in society where I grew up in a multi ethnic neighborhood where everybody was a different colour but we all thought the same way so maybe I just don't see racism in the way you might through your life experiences.

Maybe we're all dealing with our own life experience chips on our shoulders, I don't like ilhan Omar I think she's a nasty power hungry dangerous person, she tweets pretty diabolical stuff about Jews and her Somali fan base grows stronger by the day in her constituency, seems were all going backwards with identitarian politics.

Most racists do not even realise that they are racist. They come from a privileged position, where they cannot even see their own privilege. They don't understand how the things they say against a minority group could possibly be offensive, as if those remarks were turned around against them they would agree "yes i am from a privileged group, thank you for the compliment". They do not have the empathy to appreciate the position of the people they insult, or even that they are insulting. They speak from a position of "that's the way things are, and it's okay for me, so I can't see how it can be bad for anyone else".

If you tell a racist that they are being racist, they will deny it, and will say that you must be racist for taking offence.

It's pointless trying to convince a racist. They are so embedded in their own privileged position in society, and have no empathy to appreciate other positions, they cannot change.

In a truly civilised society racism, homophobia, transphobia, and all the other irrational hatreds against others for no reason but them being other, would be treated as symptoms of mental illness. A mental illness that is contagious and harmful to others.

In a civilised society Donald Trump would not be president of the USA, in a position where he is spreading his disease, instead he would be being treated with kindness and medication in a secure facility.

Ilhan Omar was born in Mogadishu, Somalia and came to the US as a refugee and is now a US citizen ( as I’m sure your aware )

Ilhan has openly showed a like for al-qaida and protected al-qaida, she has openly showed her dislike of America

Somalia has terrorist links to al-qaida responsible for a Kenyan shopping mall bombing

So now put in to context his words, in there spat he says go home, fix the problems, come back and show us how it’s done.

Not a go back to where you came from

Is USA crime ridden- yes just like every other country

But the economy is booming

Unemployment is at record lows

Black unemployment

Hispanic unemployment

Female unemployment

Tax cuts

Interest rates being cut

Don’t think USA is in such a bad state really

If you take a different meaning I’m sure you can find racism , but his words tell a different story

It's about his only ability to pull together his band of clueless supporters, to stoke their hatred of others, in the hope that he can gain re-election from that core of straight, white people where he's been cultivating their viewpoints for a couple of years.

He'll alienate others - those who aren't particularly prone to racism, many minorities etc and floating voters who may pull away from the republicans. His tweets etc hit the headlines frequently, so there'll be many more before the elections. A steady drip feeding of the bile that foments discontent, hatred and division. It's divide and conquer again, as we've also seen in the UK. where many people have mindsets that are happy to project hate towards immigrants, the disabled, people on benefits etc, when the ultra right wing pulls the strings of the puppets.

Spot on ,sadly

In my opinion , it's a classic example of the starwars metaphor, the dark side is winning its subtle plot to breed hatred , pit human against human , sibling against sibling , who wins the rich people making guns , bombs ,all mannor or security that hatred of others insists we need

First, it is not just about Omar. He is also talking about three US born Congress women.

Omar moved the the USA when she was 10 and is a US citizen. She didn't choose to go anywhere.

Omar has not shown any sympathy for terrorist groups. Trump just says that she has.

Have you checked yourself? What she actually said, not what was reported.

There is record employment as the continuation of a process that started from 2010. Look at the graph. It's a straight line. The same with GDP and the stock market.

It just has not been broken.

New jobs, like in the UK, have not been permanent and full time. They have been part time and casual. Like here, the definition of employed includes just an hour a week. Like here, if you are not looking for work because you have given up or are I'll, you are not unemployed.

Why should black, Hispanic or female employment diverge from any national trend? Are they any better paid on average or do they still tend to hold the most menial positions?

Tax cuts were or corporations and the wealthy. The rich have benefitted by far the greatest amount.

I'm not sure that you are as unsure as you make out. I get the impression that you have already made up your mind and just want your opinion endorsed.

How is he a billionaire?

Politicians have got power by blaming some group or other for every problem over millennia. Not original. We just seem to have lived through a period where this was less frequent.

God don’t start all that privilege stuff"

By my own definition i acknowledge that i have a privileged position in society, i won a lottery by being born with white skin, and with parents who were not rich but got on okay and didn't abuse their children. I acknowledge that the societal background i have knew very little about other cultures, and that i have had to work at getting to know about those cultures. I acknowledge that as a child, and as a younger adult there have been times that i believed things and thought things and said things that i now realise were profoundly, but unknowingly, prejudiced and racist in attitude. (And homophobic, transphobic, ableist, mysogynist). I am rather glad for myself that these have not been systematic attitudes, but occasional almost unknowing attitudes. That still does not excuse them. I acknowledge that there are still occasions where i may feel or even say things that will cause offence to others. However i acknowledge these flaws in my character, i try to empathise with others, i try to do better.

So yes, by my own definition i am racist (and homophobic and transphobic and ableist and mysogynist and many other prejudices), but i know it and i am trying to do better.

How about you?

There is record employment as the continuation of a process that started from 2010. Look at the graph. It's a straight line. The same with GDP and the stock market.

It just has not been broken.

Why should black, Hispanic or female employment diverge from any national trend? Are they any better paid on average or do they still tend to hold the most menial positions?

Tax cuts were or corporations and the wealthy. The rich have benefitted by far the greatest amount.

I'm not sure that you are as unsure as you make out. I get the impression that you have already made up your mind and just want your opinion endorsed."

So if it’s a downward trend you agree he’s doing a great job along with the 4 million jobs created

So you think trump actually meant go back home fix the problems come back and tell us how fix it, to the other 3 congress women ? That’s a stretch even for the left especially when it’s clear it was Ilhan he was on about

I mention people of colour, Hispanic and woman as you be quite concerned about this racism so thought it was worth mentioning.

So do tax cuts and interest rates being lowered only benefit the rich ?? I would of guessed everyone has more money in there pocket meaning everyone benefits.

Jobs ? Well don’t know what jobs people have, I guess what people are qualified in and have experience in , surly lowest ever is a good thing ? Or is it bad

And concerning Ilhan yes read the the 2 articles and interviews today ( have a look online ) and previously seen the vid

And am I unsure, well I can only go on context and the exact words written and not spinning the words to fit a narrative, I would 90% say confidently say it wasn’t racist, 100% not meant as racist ( he’s a dic so quite possibly hit the send button before reading lol )

"I've not even read these tweets .I decided he was a white supremacists racist sack of shit after Charlottesville...

Sack of shyte....period.....Total loser

Billionaire, leader of the free world, hell of a wife. Yeah loser lol

Billionaire?

Apparently he hasn't been making enough money to pay tax.

How is he a billionaire?

Politicians have got power by blaming some group or other for every problem over millennia. Not original. We just seem to have lived through a period where this was less frequent.

Hell of a wife how? Because she's pretty but doesn't like him touching her?"

To be fair and not a dig but we all know how rich and poor business owners can avoid paying a lot of tax, right or wrong we know all business can

Lol and well she’s still nice to look at

If you tell a racist that they are being racist, they will deny it, and will say that you must be racist for taking offence.

It's pointless trying to convince a racist. They are so embedded in their own privileged position in society, and have no empathy to appreciate other positions, they cannot change.

Be careful you don’t fall over the far left side of the world

So by your own definition you might be racist ?

And if I call you a racist and you deny it, in means your racist ?

God don’t start all that privilege stuff

So yes, by my own definition i am racist (and homophobic and transphobic and ableist and mysogynist and many other prejudices), but i know it and i am trying to do better.

How about you?"

Racist lol

Ah the old 1984 thought crime, people who think differently should be in mental asylums, rehabilitated, probed, locked away for the good of the masses?.

Of course there was a time when all those things were the norm of society and still are in some societies, it's a good job we were given the ability to talk and think freely, to be free from persecution from the state, it got us away from that norm where today the UK is according to the UN one of the most tolerant countries on this planet we call earth!.

Thank God we didn't listen to voices like yours way back then, I just hope nobody makes that mistake in the future.

While your all on your high horses about racism and the good ol' USA I thought I'd quickly Google the MOST RACIST COUNTRIES

Holy shit were not on it and neither is the capital of white supremacists the USA.

In fact it was quite surprising to see who was on it, so according to the UN study it was in order over most racist.

India Lebanon Bahrain Libya Egypt The Philippines Kuwait Palestine South Africa South Korea Malaysia Nigeria Iraq Kyrgyzstan Ecuador Algeria Pakistan Yemen Hong Kong Russia Thailand Cyprus Turkey Morocco Japan.

I mean Russia lower than Palestine who'd have thought that, or USA lower than the Yemen, Britain lower than Nigeria?.

Startling

Wiki has a whole page on racism by country.

Interesting one from the Congo.

Ethnic pygmy populations in Central Africa suffer from racialized discrimination from Bantu groups.[2] Pygmies and Bantus differ physically and genetically due to long lasting evolutionary separation until the Bantu expansion brought them back into close contact.[3] Pygmies have been targeted for slavery by Bantu populations continuing into the modern age.[2] They are frequently ostracized from participation into the wider society in the various African countries that they live in and are seen as untouchables.[2] Racially-motivated attacks constantly occur on Pygmies including r#pe and cannibalization.[4][5].
