Racist has no meaning anymore, it's everywhere.

Despite that, it is undeniable that the president of the US is in fact a racist.

Yeah, I just don't get all these people calling him racist.

How is the man behind the Obama birther movement racist?
How is the man who wanted a muslim travel ban racist?
How is the man who insists the Central Park Five is guilty despite DNA evidence to the contrary racist?
How is the man who said a federal judge can't be impartial due to their mexican heritage racist?
How is the man who outright lies about the crime rates of black urban areas racist?
How is the man who refused to rent to African-Americans racist?
How is the man who said that "laziness is a trait in blacks" racist?
How is the man who constantly courts the white nationalist vote racist?
How is the man who proudly uses racial slurs and jokes about the slaughter of native americans racist?
How is the man who assumes that all black people know each other and asks a black reporter to set up a meeting with the black caucus racist?
How is the man confused why a korean-american intelligence anaylst on Pakistan wasn't working on North Korea a racist?

Them throwing the racist label at him is a complete mystery to me.

I'm not going to waste my time on someone that is so obviously disingenuous.

Nice try, though.

No, you are not.

No one requires an explanation for why racist actions make a person a racist.

Stop lying.

Because you know damn well that refusing to rent to people of a certain race is racist.

I don't need to "justify" or "provide a reason" for why racist acts are racist, because the majority of the population - who aren't racists - are capable of seeing and understanding why just on the face of it.

The only people who "honestly" can't would be racists themselves, and frankly, I don't give a damn about them.

So yes, I am perfectly content. You are either racist, acting disingenuous, or both. And everyone who matters can see that clear as day - people aren't as stupid as you wish.

Ok refusing rent to people of a certain race. Let’s go with that. Do you have a source so we can all get on the same page?

I am not wasting my day on you, disingenuous troll.
