Any retard can cherry pick photos. Try image serching "Black maga supporter" on Google and tell me what number you get to when you stop seeing new faces.

A lot of the girl wearing glasses. Also a lot of a guy in a yellow shirt (something to do with a Hooters waitress), Kanye is there and if I scroll a little further, Colin Kaepernick's Nike ad, the MAGA bomber and the Covington kid... Scroll further still and there's Hillary, JFK, Roger Stone and Jim Acosta. Hell, there's even a pic of Kathy Griffiths holding up the severed Trump head (I'm not kidding).

Yeah, I don't really see how this is helping...

I'm guessing it has a lot to do with your cognitive dissonance. Rather fascinating to behold, I must say.

And by cognitive dissonance you mean that a Google image search, based on your parameters, resulted in fewer images of folk of colour wearing MAGA hats than the white folk wearing 'em in the three pictures I posted.

Roger that.

Black people are 10% of the population, and of that 10%, only 1 in 10 vote republican. So each individual black MAGA hat wearer is about equivalent to 50 white ones, statistically speaking.

And what I really mean by cognitive dissonance is the fact that you'd actually try to prove that something is racist by showing its popular among white people, while at the same time denouncing those very same people as being infected with hate. :sneaky: But of course, you stand against hate, right?

So you seem to be making the argument that recognising racism and calling it out, requires you being racist yourself? Calling out hate requires your own hatefulness?

Jesus, does eating ice cream require me to be Pistachio?

This is a bizarre zero-sum philosophy GBM.

If you didn't hate MAGA hat wearers, you wouldn't conclude that they were all racist, now would you? So really the question is why your prejudice should get a free pass.

I mean, it's the prejucide you're claiming to take issue with, right?

Stormy Daniels Says She ‘Technically’ Didn’t Sleep With Donald Trump

“Technically I didn’t sleep with the POTUS 12 years ago. There was no sleeping (hehe) and he was just a goofy reality TV star.”

Didn't even need her stupid speculation.

The reporter was literally doing the basics of journalism, acted on it, and got the scoop.


For those wondering how CNN connected the dots, here's @ShimonPro last night -- before the arrest of Roger Stone -- explaining the unusual grand jury activity taking place in DC on Thursday and why it might indicate new indictments coming.

Last time there was grand jury activity on a Thursday, there were also indictments the next day.

Quick question, why did Trump not build the wall when the Republicans had control of both houses?

Because most elected Republicans know it's really stupid. If they thought it was important or valuable, they would have passed it when they had unified control, or they would give the Democrats something to get it. But they know it's not valuable at all, so they don't want to give anything away for it.

For useful context: there is a single congressman that represents a third of the entire border. He's a Republican, name of Will Hurd. He strongly opposes the wall, ran on that in his re-election campaign and won.

Republican Congressman: Trump’s Border Crisis Is a ‘Myth’.

Hurd’s district includes 820 miles of the U.S.-Mexico border, more than any other member of the House of Representatives. But if you’re expecting Hurd, who was narrowly re-elected to a third term last year, to support President Trump’s “big, beautiful wall” and stand with the decision to partially shut down the federal government over the fight, you’ve got it all wrong. Trump’s border crisis is a “myth,” Hurd tells Rolling Stone, and a wall made of cement or steel slats is a “third-century solution to a 21st-century problem.”

Every single representative of an area that touches the border, opposes the wall. Beto O'Rourke, the Democratic Senate candidate did strongest in the border region of Texas.

Weird that it's filtered down to a predominantly... I wanna say pale... crowd then.

I always wonder if they genuinely think it's some weird coincidence that there's exactly 1 black Republican congressman. Or that 90% of black voters... don't vote Republican. A real head-scratcher. :unsure:

Pres. Trump has a 37% approval rating and 58% disapproval rating in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll, and has the lowest two-year average approval rating on record for any president.

And re. the nonsense that Trump is 'winning' the PR fight on border security (not just the wall)...

Trump also lost ground when it came to border security (i.e. the way Trump wanted to frame the shutdown fight). Trump held a 10-point edge over congressional Democrats when voters were asked before the shutdown who they trusted more on border security. A Quinnipiac poll taken after the shutdown had congressional Democrats with a 5-point edge over Trump on border security. The ABC News/Washington Post poll asked a similar question and had congressional Democrats and Pelosi with a 2-point advantage. Both polls are double-digit gains for Democrats.

So even the thing he used to have an edge with, he's lost because of how he's behaving. Art of the deal.

Watch out guys GBM just did some logic Kung Fu on your ass.

It's ok, just watch Candace Owens blather on airheadedly and convince yourself that means MAGA isn't about racism, all while your very definition of an American excludes anyone who isn't a native-born white person.

Exacto. The irony is lost on them I'm afraid.

To spell it out... ALL non-native American citizens are either immigrants or descendants of immigrants or were slaves involuntarily brought there.
Did the people you call native Americans appear out of the aether in North America? Oh wait, they must have migrated there. Now you could argue that the native Americans are not immigrants because "which country did they immigrate to?". But then which country did the original Europeans immigrate to? Which country did the Europeans immigrate to before 1776? Why do you label the Europeans that migrated to North America as "immigrants" but not the Indians that migrated to North America? Sounds terribly racist for you to say that.

And the best part, if the natives had stricter border control and control over foreigners coming into North America the may not have ended up on reservations and casinos. Who knows, maybe they also had the problem of people calling them racists and bigots for wanting to protect their land.

So you are going to have to convince people that the standard rhetoric of "ALL non-native American citizens are either immigrants or descendants of immigrants" is not based on total racist BS. Good luck.

Would've said cognitive bias rather; you're intentionally ignoring the fact that whites outnumber blacks by a country mile in the US in almost all facets of life.

You must be ignoring it in order to infer that 10-to-1 ratio is suddenly something other than just national demographics when it comes to MAGA hats.

And even if it is caused by something other than just national demographics, you've already concluded that "something" to be a negative by the looks of it. Pure cognitive bias at play.

My definition of American doesn't exclude everyone who isn't a native-born white person. :ROFL:
