Are racist joke acceptable?
I wonder what would happen if the current president said this?

Re: Are racist joke acceptable?
However, there were no comments from the liberal media, so technically it never really happened..

Wasn't she mocking the interviewer there for attributing something to the wrong person?

Yes, she was. I think the OP was suggesting the corporate media would have deliberately missed the context had Trump said similar.

The last I heard it was a racial slur whether used directly or indirectly. Just to let you know where we currently are, well-known TV presenters get fired because they used black make-up on their faces as kids during Halloween.

Re: Are racist joke acceptable?
So are you saying that there should or shouldn't be outrage about this?

Yes that's how American politics works, and the pro trump outlets would defend him to the hilt even if he punched a nun on live television. This can't be need to either of you

Yes, you're right, liberals think they can get away with racial wisecracks just because they are liberal, knowing the liberal media will stay silent.

You think the answer to hysterical media taking a quote by trump out of context is to do the same thing as them but to Hillary? The answer is to ignore all the stuff that has no substance.
There is a lot to worry about in this country, it feels like this board should be renamed the US politics board because it is all that is discussed.

This board will die soon anyway, as pretty much all discussions are worn down by the guy who lives on here.

What is happening in America is of concern to many other countries around the world. In fact, the internal Democrat plot to stop Trump was undertaken with the assistance of foreign powers. So unfortunately, you can't escape the fact that everything is intertwined, especially the Brexit issue.

It hasn't escaped my attention that a number of people want to turn this forum into a talking shop, an echo chamber, a wankfest of uninformed opinion, and it comes as no surprise that any opposing views are belittled and the authors attacked. You really are a very dull and predictable lot.

I think you need help. Can't you see that you are the one person on here who regularly does all the things you mention in your post?

You don't get personal but you so rarely challenge the point someone has actually made, for an example see your posts in the recent Brexit thread.
It is almost like you feel like you have to reply even though you have nothing worthwhile to say. It is tiring.

The argument was settled with the referendum, what we are seeing now is a show, it's theatre.

Now over to Irony Corner where we hear from the guy who gets all his news from Twitter, who says ccmb is an echo chamber of uninformed opinion.

Whereas you get your news 3rd hand from the media opinion piece writers, I get mine first hand from the sources :thumbup:

Thought provoking remarks, Eric. Trump talk dominates other discussion forums I visit. He gains an awful lot of traction through his twitters. Whoever thought of having him use that medium to communicate is a genius if you believe, as I do, that amongst his roles is to distract and divide.

MAGA and Brexit are the same thing, the same problem with the same people involved.

11-11-2018 marks 100 years since the end of The Great War. It is also, as board elders have known for some time, the date that will usher in the winter of our discontent.

As with so much from W-B, that's not really true. For example, last year he got a warning from Mr Morris for suggesting that because I was a Democrat* I was sympathetic towards paedophiles.
*as if British people consider themselves Democrat or Republican
