Okay, now I get it. So does Hillary have a racist constituency? How about Obama?Yes, I KNOW he has a racist constituency because they've come out and openly said they support him. HiHe also has an Evangelical constituency. He also has a blue collar constituency of disaffected workers who have lost their livelihoods due to changes in the global economy. You get it now?You really think Trump speaks to his "racist constituents"? Now you want to insult the American people, while denying you are insulting the American people. Hillary did that and it cost her the Presidency.Here we go. Quote where I ever said that ALL of his supporters are racist. You're not getting away with that shit today. I've had it with that crap.Yeah, everyone that supports Trump is a racist. You keep going with that and democrats will keep losing ground every election.You win my prize for Biggest Stretch to Defend Trump. Unbelievable.Yeah, I agree that Trump sidestepped it, but I disagree that he intended that as a 'dog whistle', but simply wanted to keep the narrative moving along in a direction he prefered; building his base and making liberals go ape-shit.
This whole notion of a dog whistle statement is completely indefensible. As one cannot hear a dog whistle, were a person accusing someone of making a dog whistle without a device, the accused person cannot defend themselves from such an accusation. "You dont know how to do that?" "Suuurrreeee you dont, but the dogs are cominig, you fascist!"
Did it ever dance across anyone's mind that for David Duke to claim he supports Trump and Trump to then deny it is to give David Duke more air time? And if Trump doesnt want to do that because he does not want to help David Duke, he tries to avoid the topic instead, but that is a dog whistle to Duke supporters?.
That is not a dog whistle, that is intelligently media manipulation.
It was a quiet nod to his racist constituents that he would not let them down. As he did not let them down when he talked about the many fine people on BOTH sides of the neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville.
I'm still waiting for any actual point from you. I'm not holding my breath, either.
