You know that the word some would technically mean a majority right?
Wow.
The word "some" does not in any sense mean "a majority".
"being an unknown, undetermined, or unspecified unit or thing"
This is one of the most basic words in the English language, we learn it right there alongside "more" and "now". I'm not trying to be a dick, but for you to not know what it means speaks volumes about how you end up being so fundamentally delusional with regards to what Trump is saying when he opens his mouth. You're not living in reality.
So are you nitpicking over what percentage of illegal immigrants are bad people?
No, no one brought percentages into the mix but you. Not me, not Trump. Trump said some are good people, since some by definition is an unspecified number this is a classic Trump tactic to get his message across without actually saying it so he can deny it later. That's why it matters that he put a qualifier before that but not when he was calling them rapists. The implied message (which the racists understood loud and clear) is that he's generalizing that Mexicans are rapists.
This is also text book fascism. You gain power by singling out groups of people to attack and demonize, likening them to scum (or perhaps vermin) effectively dehumanizing them do you can further justify the things you plan to do to them later (likes separating them from their families). That's why racists love him, because he knows how to communicate these things to them while also saying them in a way that people like you will sit here and go "duh he's talking about amnesty statistics over the prior 8 years".
Yeah like with celebrities getting caught faking Maga attacks in the middle of a snow storm.
I just talked about the undeniable spike in hate crimes all over the country and your response is to quote one anecdote about one celebrity who did a stupid thing as if that refutes it.
If you don't have a way to refute a point then stop trying to convince yourself it's not true.
When did we beat Japan at anything? They send their cars over by the millions, and what do we do? When was the last time you saw a Chevrolet in Tokyo? It doesn't exist, folks. They beat us all the time.Statement implies we can and should be doing better to compete with Japanese car manufacturers it shows confidence in American aut manufacturers.
Wow, you found a paragraph in there that didn't contain racism. Congrats.
When do we beat Mexico at the border? They're laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they're killing us economically.Mexico is making smarter economic decisions than the United States and we can do better
"They are not our friend" is not exactly anti racist. Mexico is a US Aly, that's just a fact. And there is no reasonable metric by which they are beating is economically. So again, Trump is just saying outright stupid things that are so brazenly dishonest to cover up the point; "they are not our friend", in other words... Hate those Mexicans.
The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else's problems.A call to stop being the world police and bailing out the world. Insinuating we should be empowering nations to take care of problems before they reach our shore
Again, just purely made up out of no where. This is why I posted the entire section of his speech, so you wouldn't just pull things out of your ass but you're doing so anyway.
He didn't say a word about us being the world's police anywhere. He was talking about the people coming here from Mexico saying that those people are"Mexico's problem" that they have unleashed on us. That's about as racist as you can get.
Thank you. It's true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best.Mexico employs a strategy of making cartel issues our problem so they can weasel out of solving them
Employs a strategy? WTF? My god dude, please listen to yourself. This is insane.
And some, I assume, are good people.A statement indicating he is aware most are good people and if not most a good amount that shouldn't be lumped in with the criminals
This really reminds me of the January 6th debate where Trump defenders will take literally two words he uttered out of the entire speech and pretend that was the take away, ignoring the other 13,000 words that were all alined with the opposite.
Trump spent his entire speech trashing the people that come here, and he did so loudly, proudly and confident. The only time in that entire speech he made a pronouncement that wasn't bold and confident is when he said some of them are good people. No rational person can hear that and not recognize that factually, objectively, amounts to an insinuation that there are far more bad people than good people. But you just don't care, facts be damned, logic be dammed.
This excersize is really helping me see went people vote for this man.
