Is Trump a Liar or a 'Straight Talker'? | Louder with Crowder
"Lowder with Crowder" is a pretty good show on YouTube. I don't always agree. I probably agree only half of the time.
I think they have a point: Trump appeals to people because he says the things they really think. However I disagree that with them about Trump being racist. He's blatantly racist but in order to see it you may have to know what it's like to be targeted. If you have never experiences his brand of racism, you may not know it's racism and because it's so close to the heart of what America and it;s institutions are at the core. He isn't the kind of racist that wears and a white sheet and a hood, but the kind that hoards and protect their privileges all the while believing you don't deserve to have what they have although they didn't earn it either.
A lot of older Black people who have lived a while have said to me that they recognize the kind of Racist that Trump is. For example, Samuel Jackson said that. I agree with them.
