Campaign isn't a day old and Trump poodle Ron Desantis already had a "macaca" moment

DeSantis could have cleared this all up with an apology to Gillum. The fact that he hasn't speaks volumes. He let his campaign make a statement instead. If he had apologized it would have taken the wheels off the argument that this was a dog whistle. This shows me he won't make this apology because it would offend his base.
 
This latest race baiting attempt didn't elicit the typical Pavlovian response from blacks it normally does, probably because the unemployment rate is down and life is looking up.

The unemployment rate is down thanks to Obama. Trump had nothing to do with that.

Secondly, the GOP is racist. Conservatives are racists. They always have been and always will be.

But the good news is that we don't need your votes to win elections.

So the era of accommodating people of bad faith is coming to an end. It already ended in Alabama, where a coalition of minority and liberal voters put Jones over the top.



The economy is doing well and you can't change that with lies.

The economy is most definitely not doing well. Q3 GDP is going to be a disaster because of the rush of orders in Q2 to get ahead of the tariffs, which will also negatively affect consumer prices. 2018 is the slowest pace of job creation since 2017, which was the slowest since 2011. The market has only grown by about 5% since the Russia Tax Cut, whereas over the same period in 2017 it grew 11%, and over the same period in 2016 it grew by about 6%. 4 million people lost health insurance, and premium increases this fall will be the highest since before the ACA. Lowering the corporate rate didn't bring any jobs back, but plenty of jobs have left including BMW, Harley, and Carrier. Finally, the most important part; real wages for most workers have declined.

Seems to me that you've set the bar so low for what a "good economy" is that it's resting on the ground.
 
Socialist is a bad word for the racist right.

Lots of Americans agree with the racist right in some form.

Look at how many dingbats on the right on this board are calling him a socialist already.......

Even Joe on morning Joe, the so called "liberal MSNBC" is calling him a socialist.

I agree, it's not a bad word at all.

From my perspective, fuck the racist right and any damn thing they think about anything. Fuck 'em.

Fuck Trump and all his cultist supporters. Why waste time trying to convince these knuckleheads of anything? Fuck 'em.

Don't like socialism .. fuck 'em.

Not a racist slur, stop lying.

It was a figure of speech used in the past. Give it up, you're going to lose in Nov and you know it.

Here is an example of a racist using a simian term to refer to black football players.

"The Republican Committee of Beaver County’s secretary made racist Facebook posts last year about black NFL players kneeling during the national anthem, repeatedly referring to them as “baboons.”

“Tired of these over paid ignorant blacks telling me what I should believe in. I will tell you what I believe in and that is our Flag the National Anthem and America period end of story,” she wrote. “You don’t like it here go to Africa see how you like it there. We are all Americans not African American not Hispanic American. WE ARE ALL AMERICAN...

”How many men and women have lost limbs or died to protect this country and you baboons want respect,” she wrote. Let’s see how the baboons get paid when white people stop paying their salaries...”
