And like everything else he's lied about it constantly. Tell me, which part of the Steele Dossier don't you believe? Do you believe he's the kind of guy that wouldn't pay for a golden shower from Russian hookers on a trip to Moscow? How gullible are you?

(I'm leaving "gullible" there for parallelism, but frankly there are more apposite adjectives.)How many of your predictions regarding Trunp have come true? In the case of the left, virtually none save an attempt to repeal Obamacare (which I admit is a big one that I was against). Otherwise the predictions of doom and gloom have failed to materialize. Life goes on. As for what the left believes, it seems to be borderline incoherant regarding Trump and often contradictory or verging on the deranged. Like Trump somehow concoctimg evil schemes that secretly enrich him yet being senile.It seems to be little more than "Someone said something bad about Trump? Must be true."

They don't want to appeal to racists.

QuoteOver a thousand economists have written to Donald Trump warning his “economic protectionism” and tough rhetoric on trade threatens to repeat the mistakes the US made in the 1930s, mistakes that plunged the world into the Great Depression.The 1,140 economists, including 14 Nobel prize winners, sent the letter on Thursday amid an escalating row over trade between the US and the European Union. Trump has imposed tariffs on steel and aluminium imports but has granted temporary reprieves to the EU, Australia and other countries.“In 1930, 1,028 economists urged Congress to reject the protectionist Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act,” the authors write, citing a trade act that many economists argue was one of the triggers for the Great Depression.“Today, Americans face a host of new protectionist activity, including threats to withdraw from trade agreements, misguided calls for new tariffs in response to trade imbalances, and the imposition of tariffs on washing machines, solar components, and even steel and aluminum used by US manufacturers.“Congress did not take economists’ advice in 1930, and Americans across the country paid the price. The undersigned economists and teachers of economics strongly urge you not to repeat that mistake. Much has changed since 1930 – for example, trade is now significantly more important to our economy – but the fundamental economic principles as explained at the time have not.”, sent the letter on Thursday amid an escalating row over trade between the US and the European Union. Trump has imposed tariffs on steel and aluminium imports but has granted temporary reprieves to the EU, Australia and other countries.https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/may/03/donald-trump-trade-economists-warning-great-depressionHmmm, 1,140 economists, including 14 Nobel prize winners seems like a lot of very smart people.

It's almost as if Trump supporters never really cared about his economic stances the way they said they did, and only ever liked him because of his vile racism.

Here, we have attempted to compile a definitive list of his racist comments – or at least the publicly known ones.The New York YearsTrump’s real-estate company tried to avoid renting apartments to African-Americans in the 1970s and gave preferential treatment to whites, according to the federal government.Trump treated black employees at his casinos differently from whites, according to multiple sources. A former hotel executive said Trump criticized a black accountant: “Black guys counting my money! I hate it. … I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks.”In 1989, Trump took out ads in New York newspapers urging the death penalty for five black and Latino teenagers accused of raping a white woman in Central Park; he argued they were guilty as late as October 2016, more than 10 years after DNA evidence had exonerated them.In 1989, on NBC, Trump said: “I think sometimes a black may think they don’t have an advantage or this and that. I’ve said on one occasion, even about myself, if I were starting off today, I would love to be a well-educated black, because I really believe they do have an actual advantage.”An Obsession WithDark-Skinned ImmigrantsHe began his 2016 presidential campaign with a speech disparaging Mexican immigrants as criminals and “rapists.”He uses the gang MS-13 to disparage all immigrants. Among many other statements, he has suggested that Obama’s protection of the Dreamers — otherwise law-abiding immigrants who were brought to the United States illegally as children — contributed to the spread of MS-13.In December 2015, Trump called for a “a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States,” including refusing to readmit Muslim-American citizens who were outside of the country at the time.Trump said a federal judge hearing a case about Trump University was biased because of the judge’s Mexican heritage.In June 2017, Trump said 15,000 recent immigrants from Haiti “all have AIDS” and that 40,000 Nigerians, once seeing the United States, would never “go back to their huts” in Africa.At the White House on Jan. 11, Trump vulgarly called for less immigration from Haiti and Africa and more from Norway.Obama As Unqualified,Lazy and Un-AmericanHe spent years suggesting that the nation’s first black president was born not in the United States but in Kenya, a lie that Trump still has not acknowledged as such.Trump called Obama (who was editor in chief of the Harvard Law Review) “a terrible student, terrible.”Trump frequently claimed that Obama did not work hard as president.Trump falsely claimed that President Obama “issued a statement for Kwanzaa but failed to issue one for Christmas.”Urban America As a HellscapeHe often casts heavily black American cities as dystopian war zones. In a 2016 debate with Hillary Clinton, Trump said, “Our inner cities, African Americans, Hispanics are living in hell because it’s so dangerous. You walk down the street, you get shot.” Trump also said to black voters: “You’re living in poverty; your schools are no good; you have no jobs.”He frequently offers false crime statistics to exaggerate urban crime, including about Oakland, Philadelphia and Ferguson, Mo.He is quick to highlight crimes committed by dark-skinned people, sometimes exaggerating or lying about them (such as a claim about growing crime from “radical Islamic terror” in Britain). He is very slow to decry hate crimes committed by whites against dark-skinned people (such as the killing of an Indian man in Kansas last year).Minorities As Uppityand UngratefulHe frequently criticizes prominent African-Americans for being unpatriotic, ungrateful and disrespectful.He called Puerto Ricans who criticized his administration’s response to Hurricane Maria “politically motivated ingrates.”Friendliness with ProudRacists and White NationalistsHe has retweeted white nationalists without apology.He called some of those who marched alongside white supremacists in Charlottesville, Va., last August “very fine people.”After David Duke, the former leader of the Ku Klux Klan, endorsed him, Trump was reluctant to disavow Duke even when asked directly on television.Trump hired Steve Bannon as his campaign head and later White House chief strategist. Under Bannon’s leadership, the website Breitbart made white nationalism a central theme. It featured a section, for example, on “black crime.”Trump endorsed and campaigned for Roy Moore, the Alabama Senate candidate who spoke positively about slavery and who called for an African-American Muslim member of Congress not to be seated because of his religion.Trump pardoned – and fulsomely praises – Joe Arpaio, the Arizona sheriff sanctioned for racially profiling Latinos and for keeping immigrants in brutal prison conditions.Denigrating Native AmericansIn the 1990s, Trump took out advertisements alleging that the “Mohawk Indian record of criminal activity is well documented.” At the time, he was fighting competition for his casino business.In a 1993 radio interview, he suggested that Native Americans in Connecticut were faking their ancestry. “I think I might have more Indian blood than a lot of the so-called Indians that are trying to open up the reservations.”In a November 2017 meeting with Navajo veterans of World War II, Trump mocked Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.”Other Assorted RacismTrump has trafficked in anti-Semitic caricatures, including the tweeting of a six-pointed star alongside a pile of cash. He has also been reluctant to condemn anti-Semitic attacks on journalists from his supporters, and he echoed neo-Nazi conspiracy theories by saying that Hillary Clinton “meets in secret with international banks to plot the destruction of U.S. sovereignty in order to enrich these global financial powers, her special interest friends and her donors.”In a White House meeting with a Korean-American intelligence analyst briefing him on Pakistan, Trump wondered aloud why she was not working on North Korea policy.Trump once referred to a Hispanic Miss Universe as “Miss Housekeeping.”At a June 2016 campaign rally, Trump pointed to one attendee and said: “Oh, look at my African-American over here. Look at him.”
Trump's not a racist. It's just that the left has nothing to run on but identity politics. Nobody wants to vote for higher taxes and open borders. So they have to turn everything into a racial issue.
