Sentencing disparity. Same crime, more time.
Sheriff Arpaio, with the backing of the county attorney, stopping people who look hispanic (what does that even mean?) to check their papers.
I’m going to consider it a contribution to my charity.
Ha ha. What’s your charity, surely not your personal bank account? Well charity does begin at home.
Trump agrees.
So we’ve got one county sheriff you can name with arguably racist policies in that county.
Your other example is unnamed judges using their sentencing discretion to be racist.
Fair enough, you made it to three examples, thus defending Biden’s rhetoric and painting a truly grim picture of the racist hellscape America has become.
Well, at least one county. I’m sure it is just as bad in the remaining 3,141 counties. It’s systemic, after all.
Congratulations on completing the dirtbag challenge.
You didn’t say it had to be nationwide.
This would be nationwide. You also need to understand what systemic means. If it’s widespread then it would definitely not be some random judges here and there but something deeper is at play.
I could add in there how job applicants with “black” sounding names don’t get call backs as much as those with “white” sounding names. Those same people get discriminated against when it comes to housing as well.
Let me fix that: congratulations on winning the dirtbag’s challenge.
Well, I never claimed all of that, if anything the opposite, however, if you were affected by these policies you might not be so flippant. If you were asked to provide proof of citizenship you would cry “muh freedom.”
Technically you only named one specific policy with the EO and you could only name one individual, but I’m being generous with partial credit.
Many people find vague, unsubstantiated narratives with lots of mush words that can mean anything VERY convincing.
Many people also react in interesting ways when asked to explain what they mean…
Blah, blah, blah, semantics, something, something.
Well stupidity is a bigger problem than white supremacy so Biden is beyond wrong there. The idea that a career conman with some of the lowest approval ratings in history could convince a massive portion of one our two major parties the only way he could lose is through cheating is far more concerning. That that party would likely gladly run him again even after all that happened is a pretty big problem. And Dems will be just as susceptible to someone who speaks their language in a similar manner.

Congratulations @treco. You win the Rachel Maddow Award for Accuracy in Predictions.
Don’t forget to predict the answers to my upcoming questions. I’m not sure if we should get into HR1, border policy or the curious circumstances by which anonymous buyers are willing to pay President Biden’s son hundreds of thousands of dollars for his art.
Truly impressive stuff for a self-taught artist, who also managed to become a self-taught Ukrainian energy executive.
I look forward to all of the clear, straightforward explanations about why this is all good policy.

But, but, Hunter.
The thing is, anyone here who supports Biden would call him out on things that implied corruption or lack of ethics. We already know you didn’t do the same with Trump. He just came and went…

A lot of them don’t seem to care that he’s a rotten piece of shit. Hell I think some people actually LIKE that he’s so morally bankrupt.

I was answering the question of what’s a bigger problem facing us. I thought that was obvious. It’s easy to came and went when it’s a dude you love. But the table has been set for Dems to pull the same type of thing in the future should they become hypnotized by a pure maniac. And at that time Republicans will lose their shit and talk about how awful it is. But a political party who has shown that they will support someone no matter what they do? Yeah that’s the biggest issue IMO.
When trolling the Dems becomes the only thing that matters why would they give a shit about him being morally bankrupt?
Yes I remember when did everything in his power to serve a third term. Heck Obama had plenty of Dems who repeatedly called him out. The left is still pissed and views him as a moderate at best.
I’m specifically talking about the actions taken to overturn an election. The very actions you were (rightfully) disgusted by. Perhaps I forgot Obama asking election officials to stop counting if he was up and having his followers attempt to storm the capital to keep him in power.
But if someone like Obama in the future wants to do something similar to Trump after losing? Well like I said the table has been set for a party to say we want our guy in by any means necessary.
He is like Jesus…if Jesus had raw dogged Mary Magdalene and payed her hush money, mocked the crippled and ate everyone’s bread and fish instead of multiplying it.

Wasn’t the belief being pushed by elements on the right that Obama was going to declare himself dictator? Trump came closer to this than Obama. Trump’s cultists wanted him to. They still consider him the current president and he has done nothing to dissuade them and even encourages that belief. Not even someone as shady as Hillary declared her loss invalid. Trump even declared the election he won as questionable (because his victory wasn’t hyuuuge enough).

This is hilarious and sad (SAD) at the same time.
Just this week, the RNC sent out text messages and [emails] to Republican supporters alerting them that their “payment status” was “incomplete,” seeming to masquerade a fundraising request as an unpaid bill. And emails on Monday from the RNC draw on the same theme, using the words [“FINAL NOTICE”] in the header to implore donors to activate a “lifetime membership.”
"If donors try to opt out of recurring contributions on the RNC’s page, they’re hit with a full-page pop-up graphic begging them to reconsider, lest they please “the radical left.”
“WAIT!” the pop-up reads, over a field of red sirens. Smaller print says, “The Radical Left is so happy that you unchecked that box. Don’t give them what they want!”
But yeah, too bad America is stuck with Biden when they could have that.
