So Carly Fiorina says we shouldn't call them all racists or idiots

I'm sorry, if you still support Donald Trump. You fit in one of those categories.

I caught part of an interview she did on Morning Joe this morning. Then I watched another segment later with some women in NC. One lone democrat in the group, who was a black woman, the rest all republican. I switched the channel because I found myself yelling at the tv and becoming enraged after one of the white women started whitesplaining how Senator Harris was not African American, and another woman whining about " we white people have been vilified" or some bullshit. She also said, Donald Trump speaks for white people and the more white people are vilified the more they want to vote for trump.


I'm not sure what the point was of bringing up her ethnicity. No wait, I do know. You are fucking racist, that's why. Otherwise, it would not be a part of your conversation in consideration for President/Vice President.

Sorry Carly, these people are racist idiots. Anyone still supporting Trump, not named Trump are racist and or idiots and the ones named Trump are greedy grifting assholes who may also be racist idiots.

I am sick to death of MSNBC interviewing republicans and Trumpers all of the time. How about you interview some actual normal people.

To the privileged, equality looks like oppression.

They do not have the tools to understand a nuanced point. It's all binary, knee-jerk reactions.

has gotten us the Southern Strategy (We will protect racism) and a newer version of Jim Crow. Time to call bullshit and call the racists what they are.

Fiorina falsified sales numbers at Lucent Technologies to juice the stock price before she bailed to go ruin HP.
