'Ridiculous' to call Trump a racist: Carl Icahn

CNBC tries to run the "racist" card but Icahn sets them straight!

He talks Clinton scandals and they start talking over him

OOPS: look what we caught Hillary saying about MEXICANS
Written by The Analytical Economist on June 8, 2016


Hillary Clinton has resorted to mockery when it comes to Trump’s stance on immigration, making something of a slogan out of it. “We’re going to be building bridges, not walls.”

As for specific policy, Hillary supports “comprehensive immigration reform with a path to full and equal citizenship,” and keeping Obama’s executive orders in place. Liberals positions down the line — but she wasn’t always singing the same tune.

Chris Menahan uncovered that immigration is just one of the many issues on which Hillary has flip-flopped; Shocking video shows Hillary Clinton calling for deportations and the building of a “physical barrier” to keep Mexicans out of the U.S.

Hillary is seen arguing the policies of Mexico are “pushing migration north across our border” and says the U.S. needs to “secure our borders” with “physical barriers,” implement “tougher employer sanctions” for hiring illegals and “deport” those who’ve “committed transgressions.”

The video was taken from a speech Clinton gave to the Council on Foreign Relations in 2006 (full video in the hyperlink).

Securing borders- check. Punishment for employers who hire illegals – check. Incentivizing Mexico to do something – check. Deportations – check.

Oh – and here’s another Clinton — Bill this time — sounding remarkably like Donald Trump as well:(video in the hyperlink)


Hillary does flip-flop a lot. If she becomes president – I suppose we’ll have to cross our fingers and hope she flip-flops on flip-flopping when it comes to this issue.

there was a time, during the bush years, that the liberals supported tougher sanctions on immigrants... also, look up hillarys stance on gay marriage during her husbands years as president...

Like a damn fish chunked up on the bank laugh

And libs love to throw that racism word around.... Over and over hoping it will stick.
Take Trumps argument that Judge Curiel couldn't be impartial because of his Mexican Heritage and Trumps view of illegal immigration...the talking heads have railed on and on about how the judges heritage wouldn't change how he would rule a case...."Its racist!" they scream.
But.....guess who said this:

“Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences,” she said, for jurists who are women and nonwhite, “our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging.”

Hint- She's a current sitting Justice on the Supreme Court and is Latino.

NO NO NO......evidently you guys don't understand what the media has been saying one of the differences between democrats/liberals and republicans/conservatives.

Republicans and conservatives flip flop when they change their position on an issue.

Democrats and regressive liberals "evolved" when they change their position on an issue.

These days "racist" just means "someone who doesn't agree with me".

Its sad. Extremists on the left have done this to themselves.

'Ridiculous' to call Trump a racist

Ridiculous to call people racist at all anymore.
IMO it's reached the saturation point where it simply proves the story about the boy who cried wolf.

CNBC tries to run the "racist" card but Icahn sets them straight!

IMO "setting them straight" isn't helping anything.
It simply legitimizes the accusation.

When you try to "set them straight" all you are basically saying is "Your argument has merit and is worth debating. Under certain context I agree, they are racist. You just happen to be wrong on the context. Here's the right context. And if you prove my context wrong, or find/feel any potential flaw, doubt, or hole in it? Then that proves your first assertion as true. I accuse you of being wrong, but if you prove me wrong or simply don't feel I'm right, that automatically proves you right."


IMO this is just further evidence there is little difference between CNBC, Fox, CNN, MSNBC, whatever "news" outlet or "journalist" and it's all a race to the bottom making everything dating site forums, the lowest of human interaction. Opinion vs. opinion and ultimately pointless.

The only time that Trump can be called a 'racist' is when he is in a hurry to get something done.

since when does a nationality become a race --------
----- they are just ignorant of the facts

he never said he could not be fair because of
nationality he listed past actions and associations
that he either did or is in league with and that
is why he should recuse himself ----- he is already
showing prejudicial conduct by not doing so

well,, he isnt racist because,, Clinton

is not really an argument


lol


also, people can be and are racist,, whether others aren't or not is not a refutation of legitimate accusations


and flip flopping and evolving is a matter of timing really
if one thought ,one way over two years ago and feels differently today,, that very well could be evolving

if one thought one way nine months ago, and then differently a month later, and then differently again today,,,that is closer to flip flopping


and yes, people confuse racism with bigotry,,, the former is a bigotry specifically centered on race

to accuse a whole nation of immigrants of only having 'some' decent folks is nationalist, not racist

accusing a whole race of people falsely of commiting most crimes against another race, is racist

reducing the value of a female to her looks, is sexist

racism and sexism and nationalism are three distinct forms of bigotry
