Why didn't he ban Indonesians then? Or Turks...or Nigerians? Or Pakistanis? Or the 175M+ Indian Muslims...?

So...just because Clinton isn't as great as Obama, that leads minorities to vote for someone who "obviously hates them"(as per the anti-Trump narrative goes)?

The whole point is that it isn't discrimination against Muslims. It's discrimination against nations that happen to be majority Muslim. But there are a ton of nations with even more Muslims than the nations on the list, and they

Perhaps it is because religious minorities are heavily persecuted in those countries. If Trump wanted a Muslim ban, why wouldn't he ban Indonesians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, etc?

Yes, but it brings into question the 'hateful rhetoric' narrative, when it appears that minorities did not perceive it as such(at least, based on how they voted). If minorities viewed Trumps statements as dangerous to them, wouldn

I already admitted I was mistaken about the wall, and there is just a military cordon there instead. As I asked in another post, does that negate my entire post?

OP was giving reasons why what Trump said in that case was not racism. I'm guessing 5 is related because it shows a sitting supreme court justice saying that her "race"(if we are defining heritage/ethnicity as race) play

If that's the case, perhaps we should just use the words that mean the things we want to say, instead of using words that don't mean the things we want to say to say the things we want to say? It isn't a great start when peop

So your point is that, it is impossible for a Latina to be racist, because, by definition, minorities can't be racist?

I appreciate the civility of your tone. Okay, I'm sorry I said that security cordons and fencing was a wall. I was wrong. Is that really enough to make me an idiot? Does that mistake detract from the rest of the post? Is a wall in itse

Mexico has a massive border wall on its southern border with Guatemala. Is that racist too? Not sure exactly what you mean by anti-trade, and how it relates to racism. Mexican is a nationality, not a race. There are Mexicans of all races, i
