Thank you Shadowlina.

Too much Trump carp in the news to link.

But so far the KKK and the nazis love all the winning.

The CEOs on his former councils... not so much.

He may be scummy sometimes, but it's hard to disagree with his words here. Even I can admit that.

Can someone tell me how many neo-nazis and kkk there actually are in the US.

If Trump needs them to win as the narrative goes, they gotta be Like what 20 million people?

Nausi, its simple.

If someone says nice things about Trump he says nice things about them. Doesn't mater if they are nazis, the KKK, or Putin.

This has nothing to do with ideology. It has everything to do with ego.

That's a very limited and obviously incomplete list there Chanti.

But what do you expect from a group that considers Republicans as a hate group.....

All terrible world events have happened because of the right wing. I know this because I used White-Out on my history books and that's my new reality.

There's probably 500k (TOPS) in the whole country that are part of these groups. That's less than a quarter of a percent of people.

They can't elect a Governor, they can't elect a senator, they probably can't even all elect a local dog catcher because there aren't enough of them anywhere to do it.

The idea that Trump NEEDS these people is horseshit.

Welcome to club. Pretty much everyone with a working brain thinks David Duke's narrative is ***.

Pleebo, your ignorance is showing.

Pay more attention to this reality instead of your made-up version. Clinton did not get crowned Queen of America. You did not attend her coordination ball. I know it must be hard for you, but it's time to face the fact that Trump won the 2016 national presidential election.

This is Obama's actual response to Charlottesville. They have since become the most favorited tweets in history.

I know it's funny. He can't even write his on tweets then bots make it the most favored tweet ever.

This was my experiment with cognitive dissonance on Facebook. There was so much fake outrage over Trump's initial comments. I put Trump's quote from Saturday on a picture of Obama. All of my friends that hate Trump loved it. All of my fiends that like Trump ignored it.

You have to add random "uhh" to make it believable.

Hi.

The discourse has been, shall we say, lacking in value lately - I was hoping that closing the last one would reset things a little, because I am an optimist and like to be proven wrong. Anyway, a couple of things:

- As a reminder, Google's ad policy pretty clearly spells out racist content. So while I'm pretty sure no one here is a racist, know that anything questionable will have a "nuke first, ask questions never" policy.

- This section is here to facilitate actual debate and discussion. If it's just going to be 30 pages of UH HUH and NUH UH, then it's going to go away. Step up your games.

- Try to remember that anyone who's still here after all this time probably has more in common with you than not. Except Kojo, who the hell knows what's going on with that guy

I think that's pretty obvious. I mean, they fired a guy for stating the obvious.

Kojo is one of life's greatest mysteries.
