Trump tied for 1st place

Posted by Allan on Tue Jul 16 09:35:30 2019

With Andrew Johnson as the most racist president in U.S. history.

(Interesting - Andrew Johnson was impeached)

Jon Meacham: Trump Now Tied For ‘Most Racist President In American History’

Trump’s racist attacks on Democratic lawmakers make him number one in a very ugly category, the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian says.

A Pulitzer Prize-winning historian says President Donald Trump is now tied for number one in a category he may not want to brag about.

“He has joined Andrew Johnson as the most racist president in American history,” Jon Meacham said on MSNBC on Monday, referring to the leader who routinely finishes at or near the very bottom of presidential rankings by historians.A Pulitzer Prize-winning historian says President Donald Trump is now tied for number one in a category he may not want to brag about.

Meacham said that “Johnson, in a state message, said that African-Americans were incapable of self-government and relapsed into barbarism if they weren’t closely supervised.”

Over the weekend, Trump launched a racist tirade against several women of color who serve in Congress, telling them to “go back” to their own countries.

Trump later doubled down on those comments.

Meacham said that America has never been about the concept of birthright but rather the belief that “all men are created equal,” as stated in the Declaration of Independence.

“We didn’t apply it that fully then, we haven’t applied it fully now,” he said. “But that journey toward a more perfect union is the story of the country.”

Instead, Trump has stoked racism with both his recent comments as well as his “birther” lies about former President Barack Obama, Meacham said.

InB4 "fake news"!

However, it's actually accurate. Certainly, Trump is easily the most virulently racist President of modern times.

Telling people to leave America is not racist. Neither is telling them to go back where they came from. I've told PLENTY of Europeans to do just that in my lifetime. Does that make ME a racist?

Yes, it would be nice if Mr. Drumpf went back to the Second Reich.

Perhaps this will illuminate Trump's racism for you. For Trump, bigotry is a strategy.

Even Boris Johnson disagrees with you.

Ayanna Pressley's ancestors were forced to come here. That makes her distinct.

Yes, I wish Mr. Drumpf would take your advice. The Second Reich is more his kind of place.

Who cares what some foreigner thinks? His country is well underway to becoming a Third World Bazaar. NO distinction. I'm sure there were plenty of immigrants that didn't want to come here but were forced to anyway.

The Second Reich doesn't exist anymore. Maybe we should exile him to the Imperial German Pacific Protectorates. There's a certain island there that he probably thinks is much more "entertaining" than it really is. We can build a Castle there for him.

I can't. There were already complaints from some blacks (on facebook) that whites are taking over Brownsville.

Thanks for coming out as a national socialist.

Good thing Meacham is a walking nonsequitur. Imagine if we had to take him seriously??

BTW, Andrew Johnson was a Democrat.

Nothing racist about what Trump said. He never even mentioned anyone's purported race. Lefties are projecting as usual.

I do not see where Ocasio-Cortez has anything to complain about. When asked about race on a questionnaire, most list:

[ ] White
[ ] White (non-Hispanic

etc:

"... plenty of immigrants that didn't want to come here but were forced to anyway."

Yep, think of when the potato crop failed in Ireland in the mid 1800s. What potatoes that grew were shipped back to England & left many Irish to starve. Rather than starve, the Irish came to America in droves. Thats when my ancestors got on the boat to Ellis Island.

Well, yeah, I understand that. As you suggest, some reasonable alternative should be findable.
