Truth or whistling for dogs? Election 2020

See who can predict the next weekend target of the Trump 2020 campaign tweet. Does he go back to “it’s the economy stupid” tack when he runs out of race targets? How toxic can the race card playing get? How do Harris and Booker play the card?

anyone wanting to know the truth about life in Baltimore can watch the excellent documentary

“The Wire”

Sheeeeeeeeeit!

Don’t worry, they will come up with some other witch hunt that they can embark upon.

I’ve been in Baltimore and that “truth” certainly doesn’t apply to the entire city anymore than it does to any large city in the U.S. But saying that, it’s still not really appropriate for a President of the entire United States to make comments like that. Right?

weeeel since you’ve been to Baltimore I guess that makes you a modern deToqueville.

sheeeeeeeeeit!

So the “they” is democrat who? DNC, House Judiciary, Candidate x, Speaker of House? or it doesn’t matter and the effort would be to dig for dirt on Trump and then run with it. Okay, so they go on that offensive, does Trump cease with his truthful dog whistling attacks.

Rather than make dickish remarks about the city maybe he should encourage his son in law to fix up his shitty properties that he owns in Baltimore?

I know I know

Expressing hatred and disdain for our current President in the daily LR thread is mandatory for all you true believers. God forbid anyone try to inject any humor. So I’ll back out of this self licking ice cream cone and leave the regulars to their regular self-gratification.

Carry On men.

I was ROTFL at your humor. Well done that man!

I have stated before that on matters of race it is best to be very clear. If you go humor, it’s best to go pink up front. I thought you were being serious. The fact that this is probably going to be the first presidential campaign since George Wallace where the topic of race looks to be front and center is rather significant and fraught with potential risk for our country. I hope this does not devolve into a self licking cone. Politics is, and always will be, ugly. When race cards are played it can be toxic.

Thanks for the authorization to carry on. Feel free to offer meaningful commentary if we stray into licking ice cream cones. Or throw in some more pink satire.

you’re a hoot!

It’s perfectly obvious to the casual observer that I was funning you. You’re stern admonishment back at me is overplayed. You’re not stupid enough to have failed to recognize what i was up to was an attempt at humor. But in true zealot fashion you can’t resist the chance to lecture even tho your premise that you thought i was serious is patently false.

Here’s some tongue in cheek advise back at ya! big boy. If you’re gonna start a thread that is so serious; so vital that the subject is sacrosanct and no deviations are allowable then why don’t you post that at the start of your thread?

but soon you will find your self once again in yet another thread here where you’re all in violent agreement and you can all congratulate yourselves on the self-righteousness of your quest.

So carry on my friend; carry on.

Your response is noted and accepted. I actually am that stupid and maybe the zealot in me prevented my seeing not as a casual observer. Lesson learned.

You forgot the Obama administration already? Pretty sure him being black was mentioned once or twice.

Well today, trump’s chief of staff defends trump by saying, well at least he didn’t attack Adam Schiff for being jewish. Which is something that nobody was talking about, but nice to bring it up, just really odd to bring up.

Yes but. Obama never played the race card. He and his campaign knew that would be a no win play. Others maybe talked of race but not him or his campaign or his wife.

Later in the morning on CBS’s face the nation, after probably being told that tack was a loser, he made sure to qualify the attack on Cummings and his B’more district as a comparative response to expected upcoming oversight attacks on conditions in border camps. The Trump campaign has targets, I guess Schiff just got taken off the list. How patriotic of them (pink).

I am trying to find the study, but Obama mentioned race less than any president since Kennedy I believe. Someone trying to say that Obama played up his race is just being dumb.

I think Trump was (still) responding to Cummings comments from earlier in the month in which he cited "government sponsored child abuse" in his criticism of border conditions/Trump.  You can listen to Trump speak and you hear things he drags up from earlier times.  Not only thin-skinned, which Obama was too, but moreso, and holds on to the least of slights, apparently indefinitely.  Definitely belies some fairly large level of personality dysfunction.

Therein the rub with the fury on these latest Trump tweets. He too did not mention race. It only hides in plain sight.

Now you’re back up to speed and surrounded by those you love.

Good Times Bro

Carry On!
