Dennis Kucinich appeals to antisemites, because he shares their position on Israel/Palestine. That does not mean that he is antisemitic, or that his popularity is being largely driven by antisemitism.
Racists have all kinds of different views. Many would prefer white nationalism over American nationalism, but they prefer American nationalism and multi-racial nativism over open borders and increased immigration. The interests of black Americans are mostly the same as those of other Americans, even the racist ones. Everyone benefits from security and a strong economy which provides good jobs.
Trump backtracked of that, but of what really? Pathetically, he only reported that an intern did apologize, but many in the industry noted that Trump never did say of what he did apologize, meaning that he is still not clear about GMOs; the result? There is a lot of those yahoo anti-GMO sites hailing Trump. And the industry and the ones that look at the science are not swallowing the weak talk back.
As it was noted before, Bernie is only on favor of labels but he is already on record of not opposing the use of GMOs, until Trump clarifies of what he was apologizing for, Trump is **still **telling others to fear the Technology.
And again, until Trump refutes Joe Arpaio you are not convincing anyone that you are looking at the evidence in the proper way, Trump is a racist or it is a willful enabler; just as you are clearly not aware of what the candidates did say about GMOs you are not really convincing about Trump not being an enabler at least.
That man child of a coach should be fired for cultivating hypersensitivity in his athletes. He isn’t doing them any favors. High school athletics should be teaching those girls the exact opposite lesson.
I didn’t know Trump had spouted off about GMOs. Interesting, but not suprising. Thanks for sharing.
Trump is certainly not a pro-science candidate by any stretch. He is on the wrong side of global warming, and the right side of nuclear energy. Bernie is the opposite. They have both pandered to the anti-GMO movement. Bernie has made a major effort to take actions to pander to it. Trump apparently sent a tweet. Even Clinton has pandered to anti-GMO sentiment. And most everyone not mentioned is some kind of bible thumping creationist. This election, someone who values evidence based decision making has a choice between not so great, bad, horrible, and even worse.
Arpaio is symbolic of anti-illegal immigrant sentiment, which Trump is certainly not going to repudiate.
He will stop featuring him if he manages to win the primary, though. He is there to gain the support of the wide swath of voters who’s desire for stronger border enforcement has been pandered to way more than it has been acted on. We won’t know if Trump is just a more effective panderer, or if he really intends or will be able to manifest the desires of those constituents, unless he manages to get elected.
Like the people at Monsanto I will not accept those thanks until one notices that you are learning. I already quoted Bernie before clarifying about his GMO stance, you posted as if you were not aware of what was posted before.
And that why as Hispanic I will take that as wishful thinking from you. Just about what many Republicans do to justify the support of racists or to tolerate their power within the party.
I am aware of his position and his statements. He has heavily pandered to an ignorance laden movement with his advocacy and implementation of GMO labeling, as well as his alternative medicine quackery. The anti-GMO movement is responsible for the deaths and disabilities of millions of African and Indian children from starvation and malnutrition. And here you are more concerned that Arpaio’s deputies pulled over a brown American dude to find out if he was legal. It’s these kinds of whacked priorities that cause more and more of us to want no association at all with most lefties any more.
Perhaps what the girls should be taught is that they don’t have to take that shit without giving the chanters a bloody bone-breaking beatdown, but as we can’t expect any school administration to get behind that, administrative punishment is the best workable compromise.
He has no authority. How hard is that to understand?
He is limited to enforcing Arizona law.
Remember the whole states rights thing? This is not one of those state rights.
Immigration is strictly a federal matter.
It means that Trump is using him to pander to anti-illegal immigrant sentiment. That’s Arpaio’s position, it’s what he talks about, what he represents. If Trump wanted to pander to racist sentiment he would feature David Duke instead.
If the responsible people won’t do their jobs, that leaves the irresponsible people to do it. Simple logic. Stop lying to the public about your immigration priorities, stop passing laws that say one thing is required and then doing the opposite, and then the Joe Arpaio’s of the world will have no power. Until then, he’ll keep getting reelected, might even be VP in a scary world we shouldn’t have to think about.
