    He just can’t wrap his head around the idea of someone being biracial, or chooses not to, whatever.

      Its the exact same shit they did to Obama. The trick is that McCain and Romney never went on record saying this bullshit. They had a gaggle of C-List news celebrities say it over and over again, while they would play the “I can’t believe someone would say OBAMA ISN’T BLACK that’s crazy who would think that?” game.

      But Trump isn’t a politician in the traditional sense. He is the C-List news celebrity who talks shit all day. The GOP doesn’t want the one-eyed Navy Seal who makes serious sounding noises all day running for President. Or the elite business genius who doesn’t care about all our beautiful aborted white babies because he’s too busy counting his (((money))). They literally want to put William F. Buckley in office. But he’s dead, so they’ll settle for the Cheeto Mussolini.

      Nah, he’s a fucking moron, but I don’t think that’s it. He’s trying to use a standard pratice of his of identifying something that others may like about an opponent and attack it as not being true. When that thing is race, it becomes extra fucking ridiculous.

        I think theyre angry because many of the Weird Cheeto’s bigoted voters will want clarity on what kind of racial slur they’ll use as they are a discriminating bunch.

          No, they really aren’t as far as slurs go. If a person of mixed ethnicity kinda looks black, they get the same ones as people whose parents are both black.

            I was trying to make a joke but didn’t succeed.😞

            I’ve heard them call people of Indian descent the same slurs that they use for Blacks and Arabs. These are not people who get ambiguity or experience empathy.
