Take on the racist.

The least comforting defense is when somebody tells you that they are the least racist person they know.
I know the defense against being a racist is always a bit funny since it almost always involves invoking that one black friend or the fact that you think Halle Berry is hot but when you have a long history (Central Park 5, housing lawsuits, lost Apprentice tapes) you don't get the benefit of the doubt.
What is the best part of this story is that the two senators that denied hearing him say shithole are likely using the semantic defense since there is word he may have used shithouse but then again these guys have all already sold their souls to the devil.

  1. The fact that 30% - 40% of this country still supports Trump tells me that 30% - 40% of this country still consists of openly racist people who approve of blatantly racist behavior, attitudes, words, and actions.

    Sad. But I suppose that’s better than when I was a small child, when I’d put that number higher than 50%.
