But Trump does the same, but with social and economic classes.
Quote: but it's more fun/inflammatory to be imprecise and upset a bunch of people
But you could see the moment that Trump knew he fucked up.
And this audience are not his usual sycophants that celebrate him everything.
Again, my question is less about Trump and more how the user defines ethnicity and race, because there white Jamaicans, very few but there are, but he throws black like we understood what it means in that context so he is not exactly someone to complain about white people not understanding race.

'92 for me....and yeah this and even the 1980 map will never not perplex me even with explanation
first time I agreed with him
Nobody thats voting for him cares about this. Weird that they think this is some big fuck up.
Trump is a hero for doing an interview with people that hate him and then bodying them.
It would be the equivalent of Kamala Harris going on the Alex Jones show. She would never ever.
Trump doesn't give a fuck and they can't show the clips because the audience laughs and loves it.
Now the question is, will Kamala continue to present herself as a black woman going forward or did he end that.
Trump is just taking a blow torch and a sledge hammer to their entire staged fantasy feel good "magical" yass queen campaign

These people really can't help but see everything through a race lens. Trump's attack is not about race, it's about authenticity, and it will work because Kamala is about as authentic as Killiary.

Quote:He declared himself the best president since Abraham Lincoln for “the Black population”. He pushed back on the idea that Kamala Harris would identify as Black. (“She was Indian, and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she went.”) He enunciated the word with such contempt, as if coughing up a hairball – buh-LAAAAA-kuh. All the while, crowd reactions whipsawed from incredulous laughter to deep groans. At one point the discussion shifted to Sonya Massey, the latest Black person to be unlawfully killed by police. “Are you talking [the one] with the water?” Trump asked to audible gasps.
Quote:Trump falsely claimed the vice-president and presumptive Democratic nominee had only emphasised her Asian-American heritage until recently when, he claimed, "she became a black person".
"I didn't know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black and now she wants to be known as black," he said at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago on Wednesday.
"So I don't know - Is she Indian? Or is she black?"

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/07/31/politics/fact-check-debunking-trumps-lie-that-harris-suddenly-embraced-a-black-identity/index.html
Quote:Facts First: Trump’s claims are false. Harris did not “all of a sudden” begin identifying as Black. She has embraced and discussed her Black identity for decades, beginning long before she became a political candidate, while also honoring her South Asian heritage.
Harris graduated in 1986 from Howard University, a historically Black institution where she was a member of a historically Black sorority. After that, she was elected president of the association of Black law students in her second year at the University of California, Hastings College of the Law, she wrote in her 2019 memoir.
Politico reported in 2021 that, as a third-year student at the law school in 1989, Harris rose to speak against anti-Black racism at a campus demonstration prompted by the discovery of racist vandalism. Politico reported: “For Black students, she said, according to archives of the Hastings Law News, the cartoon was an example of ‘what we deal with all the time.’”
A profile of Harris in the publication AsianWeek in 2003, when she was running for San Francisco district attorney, was focused on her South Asian heritage. But it quoted Harris discussing her father as “a Black man” and saying, “I grew up with a strong Indian culture, and I was raised in a Black community. All my friends were Black and we got together and cooked Indian food and painted henna on our hands, and I never felt uncomfortable with my cultural background.”
Harris’ official online biography in 2005 as San Francisco district attorney referred to her as “the first African American woman in California to hold the office” and noted that she had attended “America’s oldest black university.” She wrote in a 2009 book about her childhood trips to both India and Jamaica, where, she wrote, “my father and uncles would talk to us about the complicated struggles of the people of Jamaica - the history of slavery, colonialism, and immigration.”
Her official online biography as California attorney general referred to her as “the first African American woman and South Asian American woman in California to hold the office” of San Francisco district attorney. In 2017, her first year as a US senator for California, she spoke about how she was “the second Black woman elected to the United States Senate.”
Harris wrote in the 2019 memoir about how her mother’s family instilled her and her sister Maya with “pride in our South Asian roots,” but also that “my mother understood very well that she was raising two black daughters. She knew that her adopted homeland would see Maya and me as black girls, and she was determined to make sure we would grow into confident, proud black women.”
Harris said in another 2017 speech: “Look at my own life, where a daughter of a South Asian mother and a Jamaican father concluded her own interfaith wedding with her husband breaking a glass and everyone yelling, ‘Mazel tov.’”

first time I agreed with him Reagan didn't "flip" states, states weren't created as Blue or Red states circa 2016. The states Reagan flipped were in the South which is where the Democratic strength was and he did it because the Democrats ran way to the left of the general population. Reagan cleaning up in the North and West was normal for Republicans until the 2000s.

Holy fucking shit there's actually like one post in that thread with any historical knowledge instead of thinking things were exactly the same as they are today then trying to figure out how Reagan could have duped so many people.
But this is the nuttiest wrong post of all the bad posts:
Quote:Quote:I'm actually wondering what happened between 1996 and 2000 to create the modern divide. You can see hints of it in 1992 and 1996 but it's not totally there. Feels like we have been in the same stalemate since 2000 where before then, election results were very different election to election, with blowouts or states voting in ways you can't even imagine now.
1996 Telecommunications Act, which Clinton was so proud to have signed got rid of the cap on how many Radio and TV stations a single entity was allowed to own. And like that, Reagan's destruction of the Fairness Doctrine achieved Stage 4.
That's it, that's what happened. Nazis like Limbaugh got syndicated across all counties in all fifty states because his Handlers got to own an unlimited number of stations, while Fox News astroturfed into existence for largely the same reasons.
"Free Market" Liberals handed Fascists the keys to the kingdom, gleefully speedrunning the destruction of FDR's Legacy without a care in the world. They put limits of Radio and TV station ownership in the first place for a reason. Literally as these technologies were new and rolling-out, there were many people who saw from the start how mass-communication networks could be used by bad-actors (ba-dum-tish) to spread propaganda and disinformation to the detriment of Democracy; Or, ahem, manufacturing consent.
One more:

How hard is it for you stupid chuds to understand that race does not necessarily mean ethnicity alone.
Take Trump for example. Sure he may have orange skin, but really he's black.
- convicted felon
- got shot
- has many side hoes
- hustling everyday
- grew up in Jamaica
- funny
- has mad rizz
Contrast that with say, neppy. Sure she has black skin, but she is the whitest bitch there is
- has a greek username, and a super white ass real name
- furry
- communist larper
- cop
- obsessed with video games
- lives in the suburbs in a safe neighborhood
- snitches to the pigs
- likely incel
Really, it's not hard. Read some basic theory for once.
