Trump supporters can't be honest about anything, can they?

He was not a Grand Wizard (or a Grand Master as you called it). He used to be a member in the 1940s, and for the rest of his life he regretted being associated with it. Here's a quote from a fact checking article that puts it in context:

"Senator Byrd reflects the transformative power of this nation," said former NAACP President Benjamin Todd Jealous in a press release after Byrd died. "Senator Byrd went from being an active member of the KKK to a being a stalwart supporter of the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act and many other pieces of seminal legislation that advanced the civil rights and liberties of our country."

So no, he didn't speak at a Grand Wizard's funeral. He spoke at a former member's funeral who realized how fucking awful white supremacists like Trump are that he called his association with the group the biggest mistake is his entire life.

P.S. I'm super excited the aspiring Grand Wizard you love so much is getting booted the fuck out of the White House in about 10 weeks.

@JeffMurray there ya go

@CourtJester And?

@JeffMurray And you support a racist while crying about Trump that never did that. Democrats are the racists.

@CourtJester
Can you read?

@JeffMurray Auh. Only particular levels of the kkk master of your guy mater. I gotcha.

@CourtJester No, the fact that for 60 years he regretted that he used to be an awful piece of shit like the president and anyone who supports him is what matters. But I wouldn't expect you to be able to figure that out on your own.

@JeffMurray Auh..... So the guy that was a clan member gets a pass. The guys that supported the clan member and and passed laws on race gets a pass. The guy that did more for the black community and got the highest black vote than any republican in history, however; he’s the POS. I see now.

Care to explain your logic?

@CourtJester 1. What someone is far outweighs what someone was. On that, Byrd regretted his choice and spent the rest of his life trying to make up for it. Trump is still a flagrant racist.
2. Saying Trump did more for the black community than any other Republican is not only laughable, but also like saying he's nicer to women than any other rapist.

@JeffMurray what has Trump done that is racist?

@CourtJester There are plenty of examples. If you actually wanted to know, you'd look it up.

@JeffMurray I’ll take that as a No

@CourtJester
Here's a nice synopsis. I'm sorry your internet browser is down and you couldn't do that 2 second search yourself. At least this way everyone else can see what a terrible fucking cunt bag Trump is as well.
"Trump’s long history of racism, from the 1970s to 2020 - Vox" [vox.com]

@CourtJester Here's a fun one, not the most egregious. This is like light racism for Donald Trump:
A book by John O’Donnell, former president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, quoted Trump’s criticism of a Black accountant: “Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day. … I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.” Trump later said in a 1997 Playboy interview that “the stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true.”

@CourtJester
And let's not forget, you can't really be the White Supremacists' choice unless you spread your racism around to more than just black people. In congressional testimony, Trump said that some Native American reservations operating casinos shouldn’t be allowed because “they don’t look like Indians to me.”

@CourtJester
I love how you're super fuckin' silent now.
So either:
-You're clutching your pearls thinking, "Why, I never heard anything like that before!" Which no one would believe.
-You're thinking, "I asked him for examples of racism, and none of that is racist." Which shows how racist you are.
-You realize he is and always has been a racist motherfucker. Trump supporters are generally incapable of something like that though.

@JeffMurray I work for a living. I don't read every comment ASAP either. it's comical that it got you all worked up though. Thank you.

I'm not going through the entire thing, but here's the first handful.

~ Being sued over the Fair Housing Act doesn’t constitute racism. I know a few realtors that sell and rent (one of them is black) that have been to court for the same reason. A black lady took a black man to court for being racist because she had bad credit and a bad rental history. Really?

~ An accusation doesn’t constitute racism.

~ What is racist about taking out an add saying “BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY. BRING BACK OUR POLICE!”??? Would it be racist if the suspects were white? Seems a bit situational to me.

~ Another accusation doesn’t constitute racism.

~ 1992 sounds like serving the customer. Not racism.

~ I don’t know what they looked like. Maybe they didn’t look like Indians. I never thought Elizabeth Warren looked like an Indian. Was it racist before the DNA test showed that she wasn’t? Is it still racist?

Think a bit deeper and find something that he has done that is more than simple opinion.

@CourtJester Going with option 2 I see. That tells us all what we needed to know about you.

@JeffMurray that’s all circumstantial. There are videos on Biden saying the N word. Show me a video of Trump doing that and I’ll believe it.

@CourtJester Please post that video.

@JeffMurray

Find me one of Trump doing this

@CourtJester
Reading a quote?? You really think that's the same thing?
Even if you do, that was 35 years ago. Trump is still a racist now.

@JeffMurray

So a comedian uses it in a joke and he’s a racist.

A news reporter repeats it in a quote and she’s fired and labeled a racist.

Joe says it and “well... he was just quoting someone else”.

Whatever. There’s a lot of other ways to say a quote like that.
The democrats are the party that built the kkk and many of them still hold those beliefs. And some aren’t bright enough to see it.

@CourtJester I don't know what comedian or news reporter you're referring to, but it all depends on context. I don't know anyone that thought David Cross was a racist when he used it because of the way it was used.

@CourtJester Trump's actions repeatedly show he's racist. Doesn't really matter what he does or doesn't say on camera.

@JeffMurray You’ll be okay
