Any of you libs care to take a stab at tell us why Trump's Ad is racist?
Liberals believe that if they just use their magic words the immediately "win" the argument. Neo-Con, Koch brothers, Haliburton, homophobe and racist.
So tell us, why is this Ad racist?

Ummmm, because it uses footage of an illegal immigrant from Mexico who committed atrocities to suggest that those who are trying to come here from Honduras are coming here to do the same thing, when the main thing they have in common is the color of their skin? He's not Honduran, he didn't come in a Caravan, but his actions predict theirs because skin color.
It's the clear implication of the ad.
I agree completely with your second paragraph but that doesn't mean they are never right in their claims. They're right about this one, it's pretty obvious.
The migrant caravan is a huge boon for the GOP heading into the election and Trump is smart to take advantage of that. It could have been done a lot more subtly though. -
Takes a hell of lot of inferences to come to those conclusions. I think what those people have in common is that they want to come here illegally if necessary and yes some of those illegals, that the Rats support, do awful things when they get here. If we keep illegals out of the country we won't have crimes like this committed by illegals.

But the migrants aren't "coming here illegally". They aren't sneaking in. They aren't hiding. They're coming to apply for asylum. You can argue we shouldn't give that to them, and I mostly agree, and we surely won't, but that's a far cry from coming here illegally.SFGbob said:Takes a hell of lot of inferences to come to those conclusions.

It's far more politically productive to say they are though. -
We just witnessed this very same scenario a few months ago. While some did apply for asylum at an official port of entry many entered the country illegally. They intentionally brought kids with them, many times not even their own kids because they knew if they were picked up for entering the country illegally they could only be detained for a few weeks because of the kids.
Many of these people if denied asylum will not just turn around and go home, they will enter the country illegally. -

Given the context of this administration and Trump' proven willingness to fan racial tensions and prey on white fears of browns and blacks, not really.SFGbob said:

I don't think Trump's a racist so much as a pragmatist. I do think he knows he's appealing to racists and does it chintentionally. -

You think people who oppose illegal immigration are racists? There's a lot of supposition in your claim but you have a right to that opinion but if you watch CNN or MSNBC they aren't reporting on this as if the Ad is racist in their opinion, they are stating flat-out that it's a racist Ad. The Ad never mentions race.HillsboroDuck said:
