‘You Ain’t Black’

 

The guy who said, “You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking” is now telling black people they “ain’t Black” if they are unsure about voting for him.

This is the same candidate that all of the woke diversity crowd will be voting for in November without any sense of irony. Telling a Black man that he isn’t Black is insulting enough, but he went and used the word “ain’t.” I was always taught that “ain’t” ain’t a word. I don’t hear Biden using ain’t on a regular basis. No doubt in his mind he thought, “That’s how those people talk.” Perhaps he remembers back to his lifeguard days when Black children would say to him, “I ain’t gonna play with your leg hair, that’s weird!”

And the scariest thing is, he could win. Wake up, people!

    Biden said you have to vote for him to be black. That is wrong. That is nothing like what Trump said about disloyalty.

    Biden said you (Blacks) have to vote for him to be Black.

    Trump said If you (Jews) didn’t vote Republican you (Jews) were disloyal to Israel.

    I think you’re parsing it’s a little fine, but sure – it’s different. But also a little similar.

    Not remotely at all. Race and loyalty are two different things. 

    Not sure how you cannot see that, other than willful ingnorance. 

    And you have yet to say Biden did anything wrong, can’t help but notice.

    People who are not Black have no business telling Black people how they need to be Black.

    People who are not Jewish have no business telling Jews who or what Jews should be loyal to.

    Because it is arrogant, not to mention reductionist and in these cases crassly self-interested.

    That’s why I see these as similar.

    Not sure how you cannot see that, other than willful ingnorance.

    Now now, no need to throw all your toys out of the pram.

    And you have yet to say Biden did anything wrong, can’t help but notice.

    I think they both did (because I’m consistent), and I can’t help but notice that only one of them apologised.

    Trump has nothing to apologize for. He did not tell Jews what it meant to be Jewish. He stated a fact. Democrats clearly want the destruction of Israel. Supporting them is not being loyal to Israel. Not quite sure why a statement of fact is something to apologize for. Again, you are the one injecting the word “Should” into the discussion. Trump did not use it. You infer it. 

    Now, one might well argue that Jewish faith would mandate loyalty to Israel. I would not make such a claim an I am no expert. With Jewish inlaws, my guess is, Trump knows more about it than I do, but who knows.

    It is funny, I am going on what he actually said, and you have to fill in the gaps to get to your version.

    Let’s spell it out using the dictionary definition of disloyalty. 

    If you don’t vote Republican you aren’t supporting someone (Israel) you should be supporting.

    But okay.  Maybe people see it your way?

    You’re confusing “fact” with “opinion”. Bottom line, what Trump said was insulting to Jewish Democrats, just like Biden’s statement was insulting to black Republicans. But Biden apologized. Yet, you refuse to believe Trump should ever apologize for anything, while you’re offended by Biden.

    When a Republican apologizes, that’s proof of guilt. When a Democrat apologizes it’s proof of innocence.

    Joe Biden is a racist ol’ pervert yet Democrats and Nevers pretend he’s some kind of moral paragon because to admit he really is a pervy racist sexual molester makes all their complaints about the President look hollow.

    It is only insulting if you think Jews should be loyal to Israel. That seems to be your hang up.

    It is fact Democrats want to see Israel destroyed based on their behavior. You can deny that, but that is your fantasy. The facts are in my side. If a Jewish person votes Democrat, he or she is voting for a party that wants Israel destroyed. Now, they don’t care about Israel, so what? If they do care, and do claim to be loyal, well that’s on them. Being insulted is their cognitive dissonance at work. 

    Cheers.

    When you use the word “disloyal”…its implied that someone should be loyal. Trump wouldn’t say “Catholics that vote for Democrats are disloyal to Israel”.

    Facts are irrelevant. The point is whether insulting people that don’t vote for you is something a leader should do. When Trump does it, you think its fine. When Biden does it, you’re offended.

    No, because that would be stupid. However, Catholics who vote for Democrats are disloyal to their Catholic faith. Actually, Americans who vote for Democrats are disloyal to America.

    OK. My guess is if Trump said this very thing out loud, you would love it…..and then scream about how offensive Joe Biden was being to blacks. You’re fine with a divisive SOB as president…..so long as he’s on your side.

    Trump was not telling anyone to do anything thing. I defy you to pull that from the plain text cited. 

    Trump stated a fact.

    Let’s take names out of it.

    If people A want destruction if thing B, then Support of people A means you cannot be loyal to thing B. 

    That is logical, and factually true. You just don’t like it. 

    As to the should about people A being loyal to thing B, that is another matter. 

    Personally, I think if Trumps statement stings anyone, then that proves his point.

    No. He was implying that they are disloyal to the black community, since obviously, Ben Carson is physically a black person. So, its virtually the same as what Trump said about Jews. Highly insulting. But Biden apologized….and you’re still making excuses for Trump and your friend has even said that all Democrats are disloyal to America, and probably wishes Trump would say that too. I’m just puzzled why Trumpers are the first to be offended…..when they absolutely love when Trump is offensive.

    I’m also puzzled why you can’t distinguish between a “fact” and an “opinion”. Hard to debate someone that thinks personal opinions people have are facts. If 50% of people would disagree with your “fact”…its not a “fact”

    No, you’ve moved the goal posts to cover for your candidate, Creepy Joe. What Creepy Joe said is clear: “You ain’t black.” Not “You’re disloyal to the black community.” He specifically said “You ain’t black.” It wasn’t about disloyalty, it was about denying them their own identity.

    But Biden apologized….

    No he didn’t. He blamed the interviewer and claimed he was being a wise guy. (This is a common comeback for Joe: “Stop being a wise guy.” He gets angry like that whenever someone asks him a too-revealing question.) And honestly, if you listen to that interview and you think the interviewer was “being a wise guy” . . . you’re not very wise. “You gotta come see us when you come to New York, VP Biden, because it’s a long way to November and we’ve got more questions.” That’s “being a wise guy”?
