If Dems are the racist party of today, why are all the KKK people Trump supporting Republicans?

And she is right. It never fails to astonish me how obtuse liberals are. DCUM is a perfect example. You people get together in your echo chambers and insist that anyone who feels differently must be a “racist”. Meanwhile, millions of Americans think the Democratic party has gone off the deep end - and that includes many minorities and women.

But sure, keep your heads buried in the sand. No worries, right?

Give me a break. There are 1000 reasons that I would never support Trump and none of them have to do with the fact that I’m a Democrat. It’s embarrassing. I’m embarrassed for you.

I assure you - non-liberals are embarrassed for you and what today's Democratic party has become. Note, that includes moderates and independents.

This independent agrees

They might this time around. They are not monolithic
And historically low unemployment from a pro business president?
I think he’s going to set a record for support in the black community in 2020.
If I was a dem, I’d be sh&tting in my skinny jeans right now

No. We aren’t.

LOL! On the internet anyone can pretend to be a minority Trump supporter

OP here. I appreciate everyone who responded constructively and thoughtfully. As for being a racist, I hope I am not. I was raised to be, though subtlety, and my goal is to rise above it. However, I fully recognize my inherent bias as a white person, which is why I was upfront about my race when opening this thread.

Overall, I continue to be perplexed as to why minorities would support Trump, though current economic conditions might prompt them to. Where I live, I don’t see wage growth keeping pace with the cost of living. I see so many factors that would hurt most young Americans, not just minorities. Moreover, the state where I live enacted a tax program similar to Trump’s (in 2012) and it almost ran us into the ground before voters stopped it. So I can foresee the future of America because of the Trump tax plan - and it is frightening.

But most of all, I see the average (open) Trump supporter where I live. Those people don’t want to go near a black or Hispanic person if they can avoid it. I specifically watched area media coverage of the Trump rally, because I was curious about who attended. Those are some scary people, no matter how you slice it. Interestingly, I did not see any people of color in the pre-rally crowd, but I may have missed them. How a minority person would want to stand among them, I cannot fathom. But yes, I am generalizing.

Again, thank you to those who responded civilly. These are sad times for people of all colors and origins, at least in my view.

You must be so embarrassed! To be getting destroyed daily by a president you detest!
How do you live with your despair?

On what do you base your conclusion that she's right?

an interesting opinion - https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/03/exit-left/476190/
When Black Voters Exited Left
What African Americans lost by aligning with the Democratic Party

Democratic lawmakers drafted civil-rights legislation that would challenge Jim Crow laws in the South while leaving de facto segregation in the North intact. When NBC News asked the civil-rights organizer Bayard Rustin why many African American communities rioted the summer after the bill passed, he said, “People have to understand that although the civil-rights bill was good and something for which I worked arduously, there was nothing in it that had any effect whatsoever on the three major problems Negroes face in the North: housing, jobs, and integrated schools…the civil-rights bill, because of this failure, has caused an even deeper frustration in the North.” Today’s protest movements against second-class citizenship in Baltimore, Ferguson, Oakland, and elsewhere are in part a legacy of the unresolved failures of civil-rights legislation.

Well said.

Sexual assault victim here and Trump supporter

Then you are just stupid. A true assault survivor would not support a self professed “p***y grabber” and allow him to be in a position to continue to assault others.

Liberals protected my molester because of his race.

Well if that is true, how are you different from the liberals? I still doubt you were assaulted because most survivors would not contribute to misogynists.

So typically feminist. And so typically liberal. Dismiss someone because they don’t think like you

Democrats keep telling me that everyone is racist to me. It made sense when I was a kid. Eventually I realized that this was just something Democrats said to get elected. They prey on fear and division between cultures in the US. Instead of celebrating the melting pot, they highlight our differences and say those differences are emblematic of some evil racist oppression. I grew up in a socialist country. Our family shared an apartment unit with 3 other families in DC when we first came to the United States. I've been very fortunate to have a wonderful loving family, and making enough income to be in the top 1%. I do not feel oppressed even though Democrats constantly tell me that I am.

You need a history lesson. Republicans invented the fear and racial politics. It started with southern democrats who later changed their party affiliation to republican because northern and western democrats were too liberal towards foreigners and POC. Let’s we forget, the immigration Act of 1965 which President Johnson pushed through to open up America to Asia, Africa, and Southern Europe. Before 1965, people from those regions were limited in very small numbers to immigrate to the US, for fear of America losing its whiteness. Republicans and southern democrats (Jesse helms, Strom Thurmond, et al) tried blocking legal immigration for Italians, Asians, Nigerians. Those democrats and Dixiecrats switched to become republicans under under Nixon’s notorious southern hateful strategy of racial identity politics, of do you want to send your children to school with them, etc. . Ronald Reagan followed it up by his welfare queen strategy that Blacks are on welfare and want you to take care of them with higher taxes. George Bush topped it off with his “Willie Horton” advertising that the Black man is sinister and will rape and kill your white daughters. And now we have Trump’s strategy. Has Trump once told pellet to go back to Italy. Or Schumer to wherever his ancestors first arrived from? When he was in disagreement with any of the white people and there have been many, has he ever told them to go back to their ancestors place of origin. Nah, only POC are considered to be truly non-American. We are just visiting It matters not how long our fathers and grandfathers and grandfathers fathers have resided in these United States, according to Trumpwe don’t belong here. Did he ask for Ted Cruz birth certificate. You know, The candidate with a white Cuban father. Nope, only the Black man was harassed about his origin of birth.

You lie to yourself and others PP when you say identity politics and racial politics are from the democrats. The democrats are trying to address the hate you republicans continue to spew from one generation to the next.
