President doesn’t have a racist bone in his body

Take a 100,000-foot macro view of today’s world and it’s pretty clear things really are in flux down here. Wars, chaos, Russia, crimes, and violence all mar our daily lives. People are systematically divided and isolated by race, economic circumstance and religion.

And always, it seems, to foment hate for political gain.

Even the most casual observer should agree it’s Joe’s brand of leftwing “identity politics” that is at the root of America’s divisions. For the last 20 years Joe has hit the “EAZY” button by writing columns aping the left’s talking points. Again, this week he joins the nattering media and chattering political class to attack Donald Trump as a “racist”. It matters not to Joe that anyone who knows Mr. Trump or anyone who has ever dealt him or who has ever had a serious conversation with him, will happily tell you Donald Trump is no racist. That there is not a racist bone in his body. Joe cares not that they will proceed to tell you Trump really does care about America. But a racist he so is not.

To put Donald Trump in proper perspective you must first understand it would be next to impossible to hold racist views and be successful in New York City. But that is where he earned his fame and fortune. Trump was the premier real estate developer in the world’s greatest melting pot and toughest market. New York City is a place where all races and religions and beliefs come together in ultra-close proximity. Perhaps if Donald Trump didn’t genuinely like and enjoy people, well maybe he’d be capable of dividing people by skin color, but he doesn’t divide people by skin color. Trump judges people on their character not their color. He doesn’t “hate Muslims”, he simply sees the areas these groups are coming from as a threat to our security. That is not religious hatred.

Donald Trump is no racist, Donald Trump is a pragmatist who works to advance his agenda. His agenda right now is to Make America Great Again.

But before we can hold a serious conversation about race let’s first agree the real “racists”, are primarily all on the Left. They are folks from Maxine Waters to Rachel Maddow to Joe Altschule who divide by skin color, economic status and religion. They point fingers and use identity politics to separate us. It’s Joe who stands in support of a political philosophy that enslaves the individual. It’s Joe who supports and encourages larger government. It’s Joe who would suppress free speech and who supports the tearing down of history and our culture. And it’s only those on Joe’s side who support the Soros funded leftwing groups who have been openly spoiling for a fight since Trump’s election. I cannot recall one Trump supporter having uttering such a wish.

People who peddle trash eventually smell like garbage. Those who practice identity politics end up with guts full festering hate. As a nation, the first thing we must do is remove from the conversation, those who support the belief America is a racist nation. America is not a racist nation. To say we are is a lie. American’s are not racists. That is not to say there won’t be race based confrontations. There will always be the .0001% on the Left and the .0001% on the Right who’ll make trouble and stir up hate. But the rest of us simply want to be left alone. We want to live our lives in peace and to continue to treat each other with respect and to be treated with respect. It’s about people not color. We will not take to the streets unless our nation requires it. We promise.

Joe, we are not racists or fascists or Nazi’s. We are those “good and decent people” Donald Trump referred to just this week. We are also the people who elected Mr. Trump and who support his efforts to Make America Great Again as he drains the Swamp.

We’re still out here Joe, we promise.
