On a different note, my brother is a Marxist. I went to see him yesterday. Most fun 6 hour debate I've ever had in one day.

Is he actually a marxist or do you just call him that because he's a liberal?

In the end, it was the fact that Obama was black that created the tension, not what he said. Lots and lots of presidents have spoken out about racial issues.

Trump, for example, called Mexicans rapists and murderers, is clearly prejudiced against Muslims, and is a misogynist.

Trump's an idiot, but he did not say those things. He might think them, but his words were twisted. He said by letting Mexicans have a free pass into the country, the rapists and murders are not being kept out. The same applies with Middle Easterners. His argument was that by not properly vetting the ones coming into the country, we are letting in terrorists. Also, misogynist is wrong as well. He obviously doesn't hate women. He is a womanizer, but not a misogynist. Bill Clinton and him are very similar in this regard. They are actually similar in a lot of areas if you think about it.

No, he's a self-proclaimed Marxist. Apparently, he's not a liberal. He's a member of the Green Party.

"Bill Clinton and him are very similar in this regard. They are actually similar in a lot of areas if you think about it."

Well, yeah........ they're both dogs. But you're in huge denial trying to claim Trump didn't "say" those things. His words have NOT been distorted. He's a chump who clearly thinks less of others, particularly the non white poor! No one has to go to great difficulty making Trump look foolish using his own words. He's a repeat offender of disrespect for others, of all types! Now he's making up conversations with Putin that never happened.

In denial of what? I'm not a Trump supporter, but he most certainly did not SAY those things. Like I said, he very well may believe what the left claims he said, but his words were definitely distorted. I will post what he actually said in a bit when I have a little more time.

Probably why you and me enjoy debating so much. We drive my mom nuts on holidays where we're all together because all we do is debate the same stuff over and over.

“They are not our friend, believe me,” he said, before disparaging Mexican immigrants: “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

WASHINGTON ? One of President Donald Trump’s judicial nominees didn’t tell the Senate about a major conflict of interest in his bid to become a lifetime federal judge: his wife is chief of staff to White House counsel Don McGahn, who oversees the president’s judicial nominations.

As first reported by The New York Times, Brett Talley, a nominee to an Alabama district court seat, did not disclose in his questionnaire to the Senate Judiciary Committee that he’s married to Ann Donaldson, McGahn’s top aide.

The questionnaire specifically asks Talley, 36, to identify family members who are “likely to present potential conflicts of interest.” He did not identify his wife.

Neither Talley nor the White House returned a request for comment.

Talley, who is currently a deputy assistant attorney general at the Justice Department, has already sparked controversy with his nomination. He has only practiced law for three years. He has never tried a case in court. And he was deemed “not qualified” to be a judge by the American Bar Association, making him Trump’s fourth judicial nominee to earn the rare and abysmal rating by the nation’s top legal organization.

Christopher Kang, who oversaw the selection and vetting of President Barack Obama’s judicial nominees for more than four years, said the “insanity” of Talley’s nomination extends to his job at the Justice Department, where he vets judicial nominees and helps them with their nomination paperwork.

“It is literally his job to help nominees fill out these forms honestly and completely,” Kang told HuffPost. “If this is how he approached his own nomination, what is he advising everyone else?”

Before he was a judicial nominee, Talley also made his political positions clear. In tweets that have since been made private, he said “Hillary Rotten Clinton might be the best Trumpism yet” and that she belonged in jail. A month after the 2012 mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, he wrote a blog post titled “A Call to Arms: It’s Time to Join the National Rifle Association.”

He may not hate women, but he sure doesn't seem to respect them either. Than again, he doesn't seem to respect anyone, other than himself.
