Question 1: Who are you?
Question 2: Why would I need to convince you?
Question 3: Why is it important to me that you believe?
Antron McCray, Raymond Santana, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, and Korey Wise in New York City. Known as the Central Park Five, they served prison sentences after being wrongly convicted in the Central Park jogger case.
Why Trump Doubled Down on the Central Park Five
Donald J. Trump rarely apologizes. When it comes to the case of the Central Park Five, he has never even come close.
In 1989, after these black and Latino teenagers from Harlem were accused of assaulting and raping a white woman in Central Park, Mr. Trump spent $85,000 placing full-page ads in the four daily papers in New York City, calling for the return of the death penalty.
“Muggers and murderers,” he wrote, “should be forced to suffer and, when they kill, they should be executed for their crimes.” Though he didn’t refer to the teenagers by name, it was clear to anyone in the city that he was referring to them.
Incredibly, 14 years after their sentences were vacated based on DNA evidence and the detailed and accurate confession of a serial rapist named Matias Reyes, Mr. Trump has doubled down.
“They admitted they were guilty,” he said in a statement to CNN this month. “The police doing the original investigation say they were guilty. The fact that that case was settled with so much evidence against them is outrageous.”
Mr. Trump is apparently ignorant of our country’s epidemic of wrongful convictions, which disproportionately affect minorities, and the prevalence of false confessions in those convictions.
He isn’t alone. There has been a persistent drumbeat since the sentences were vacated that the Central Park Five were guilty either of rape or of some other crime that night. A 2003 New York Police Department review reached the conclusion that the boys were “likely guilty” of an initial assault on the jogger, even if they didn’t commit the rape. Linda Fairstein, who oversaw the sex crime unit in the Manhattan district attorney’s office at the time, maintains that the jury reached the correct verdict.
Online, the case against the Central Park Five has become a meme about liberal disregard for law and order, or as the conservative columnist Ann Coulter argued, “liberals are opposed to rape in the abstract, but when it comes to actual rapists, they’re all for them.”
Why the continued belief in the guilt of the Central Park Five, despite all the evidence to the contrary? Race and racism surely play their role. So does the cognitive trap that psychologists call anchoring and what we call first impressions: Mr. Trump quickly jumped to conclusions about their guilt, as did many in New York City.

No one cares what you believe ... or not believe, it means nothing and contributes nothing to the FACTS.

You do not need to convince anybody of anything. You do not even need to be here.
I don't know, I'd have to ask you. This thread is not asking how many people have faith that Trump is a racist, it is asking for evidence that he is a racist.

I see nothing in this article that proves Trump was not motivated by the desire to see justice served, or that he would act differently if the thugs had been white. What evidence do you have that Trump's motivation was about race? Just because some of the thugs were black, doesn't mean that it is automatically about race.
RACIST rely on and depend on anonymity and other racist to constantly make excuses for their racism.
If you have to ask ... well ... think of this.
I don't know if trump is a racist but racist sure do think trump is a racist
Gish gallop.
Where is the evidence that Trump's behavior in regard to central park 5 was racially motivated?
You're the one that needs the evidence ... not me.
It's not important to be that you believe anything.
As a matter of fact, you're not important to me.
This is not evidence that anybody is a racist. Bourbon, this is weak.

Nobody needs to. This question shows that you realize that you cannot post a shred of evidence that proves Trump is a racist, as the opening post asks for. You have a responsibility to the left to tow the lefty line on Trump being a racist, and you have failed.
If there was any such evidence that he is a racist, the thread would have ended 1300 posts ago.
Somehow these treads are like a train wreck, I can't seem to help but look. It is perversely interesting to watch some one in complete denial repeatedly deny the obvious. Carry on.

[/QUOTE]The quote marks are not Trump's, they are second hand quotes. This has already been covered in this thread. When the fake quote marks are used and placed on Trump's picture, it is an attempt to trick the viewer into believing the words were spoken by Trump. Bourbon, do you really need to rely on deception to promote the notion that Trump is a racist? Why not just post some real evidence?
I never had one shred of Evidence that Barack Obama was an American Citizen ... AND, I didn't require him to show his Birth Certificate or College Grades.
Just like I didn't need to see Donald Trump's Birth Certificate and College Grades, to know he's an American Citizen and College grad.
You can't see Trump's Racism because you won't see Trump's Racism

All we need is for somebody to post a shred of evidence that rover Trump is a racist. We have almost 1400 posts here of allegations, accusations, propaganda, emotional assertions, gish gallop, and dodging, but still no actual evidence.
It's a Game they like to play ... Show me the Proof ...
Then when you show them the Proof, they'll say it's not Proof ...
Who cares what they believe, the Voters are beginning to speak and they're Vote will speak loud enough.
