An Old, Old Tactic By the GOP

[Lesh]

You deliberately mis-characterize his post.
Nowhere in it is an attack on hr based on her poly-ethnicity.

Of course he is stupid. He’s not talking about her hairstyle or her politics.

Says she who cannot read.

He's talking about her actions.

An Old, Old Tactic By the GOP

Except for trump’s obvious age and increasing dementia, since Biden withdrew from the race a nominee’s age (and mental clarity) has become irrelevant (though, it should not). During this period of indecision by Party strategists on how to campaign against Kamala Harris, trump, in his own way, has taken a page from a long-standing Republican blueprint. He is attacking Harris for being bi-racial. Such attacks are certain to impress his devoted followers.

Looking back at the GOP’s history, the Party’s Southern Strategy was developed in the 1960s and relied on conservatives' innate racial and ethnic hatreds. Since then, the Republican Party has nurtured and exploited right-wingers’ proclivity for racism, bigotry, homophobia, xenophobia, misogyny, etc. Beginning in 2015, trump deftly took the Republicans’ own Southern Strategy to levels unseen before.

“Media Matters for America writer Eric Kleefeld wrote: ‘The Republican Party is now officially running on a campaign that you can’t trust biracial people.’” Kleefeld must be very young if he believes this is something new for the GOP.

It should be unsurprising that the Demklan party thinks that because Trump thought Harris was Indian-American until a few years ago, that somehow that means you can't trust biracial people....sad really

What actions moron? Not listing her entire ethnicity all the time?

 

[Stann]

He never attacked Harris for being bi-racial.

He pointed out she always identified as Indian, but now suddenly she is all black, even using a fake black southern accent at recent speeches.

I don't believe it's a good strategy for a white person to ever question a minority race or mixed-race person about their heritage. It's just not right. This will backfire on trump.

You people are insanely stupid.

Harris was/is race pandering - selling her ethnicity in whatever way she thought would benefit her the most.
The criticism from Trump, and from me and from the Hawk, and from just about everyone is for her action of race-pandering.
Nowhere in there is an attack on her or any of her three or four races.

The fact your hyper-partisan bigotry refuses to let you believe this notwithstanding, it is indeed possible to be critical of a colored person without said criticism relating to their race, or any degree of racism against that race.

There’s nothing wrong with touting your ethnicity

As it should

Good of you to admit your claims of him/me/Trump attacking Harris' poly-ethnicity were false.
I accept your apology..

 

[Stann]

You people are insanely stupid.

Insulting the person you're attempting to have a discussion with right off the bat is not a very constructive way to have a conversation. It's more like you want to attack their position and tell them what they should be thinking ( like you ). It is not good. Good luck with that.

this is hysterical that THIS is what some of you are trying to run with after 4 years of living the lie

 

[Stann]

Correct.

Speaking of “old tricks”.....it was really strange how the deep state disappeared there for about 6 weeks when the blob was winning court cases. Its apparently back now that he’s behind in some polls.

It’s also strange how the kooks on the right are (or at least for the last few months) no longer talking about splitting the nation in two. If Harris pulls out a victory..expect that to start back up immediately.

Obama as president caused many on the right to lose their sanity. If Harris wins, we may see a Jonestown type of episode with many of them. Buy stock in Kool Aid.

Some of the extremists will no doubt act out their frustrations when Kamala wins. I predict that several red states will turn blue this time. People are getting sick of the constant threats from them. Some of my republican neighbors didn't vote for trump last time. He's only gotten worse since then. More will follow the Exodus.

Well, luckily the rest of the political spectrum and the rest of the world have the brilliant, articulate, spectacularly rational and accurately-informed Trumpsters to keep us all on the straight and narrow!

Phew! We're just very lucky!

You and I are not only on the same page but not even in the same book. For example, liberals think the way to better health is better health care. Conservatives believe that the way to better health is taking care of your health. This is a monumental difference. The question is which is the real 'reality'. Can we drug and operate our way to better health, or do we need to know how to live a healthy lifestyle?

Did you know that even while proclaiming that tobacco products are harmful to health the government continues to use their sales as a revenue stream. Same with alcohol, and lately with pot. Liberal policies, whether enacted by Dems or Repubs have monetized our problems instead of looking for solutions. If a Republican supports a liberal policy, he or she is no longer a conservative. That's another reality.

The fact that conservatives are healthier (mentally and physically) and happier than liberals should probably be examined more closely. Maybe half the country is missing something.

You missed pointing out that Conservatives are a lot more anal and contemptuous for coveting their neighbors and attempting to take away their rights.

Compare those photos of people at trump rallies and those at democratic rallies. Now who's more stupid. In general stupid people don't post here , they get easily frustrated when they are outmaneuvered or ignored and leave this site. Exceptions exist on both sides.

 

[theHawk]

You deny he attacked her for being bi-racial, and then carefully explained how he attacked her for being bi-racial.

You have to be dumber than a stump not to see that.

It wasn’t an “attack”, he criticized her. An attack would be calling her some racial slur.

She admitted her error and ran away.

Democrats have been relying on Alinsky's "rules for radicals" since Hillary was dictating policy.
