    Most Trumpster action ever -- throwin' shit around. We must thank them for the visual.

    No. It's racist, and you don't have to have read his previous posts about Elaine Chao to recognize this.

    There was some unsubstantiated rumor that she is anti-Semitic. I googled her and for news stories that states such positions of hers. I can’t find anything. Being in favor of Palestinian rights or a homeland is often a beard for anti-Semitism, but not always.

    ICE was ungovernable then. ICE is ungovernable now.

    Not much of an argument to keep it intact.

    The relevant issue is what happens now. Your whataboutism does nothing but take attention from where it belongs, the current government's actions.

    You can attack Obama all you like. It doesn't matter. He isn't the president any more. Trump has that job now. What matters is what he does with it and what he fails to do while he holds it. We've been trying to tell you that since inauguration day, but accepting that means accepting accountability and that is something you just won't stop fighting against.

    Accusations of anti-Semitism from Trumpists are classic examples of concern-trolling. If they're so disturbed by anti-Semitism, they need to re-evaluate their love of their dear leader, whose cabal of spiritual advisors includes Robert Jeffress, who repeatedly declares that "America is a Christian nation." Jeffress has said, among other things, that Jews, Mormons, Muslims and others are doomed to hell. He was an official emissary of the US government at the opening of the new embassy in Jerusalem. And why was he there? Is it because he loves Jewish people? No. It's because he and several others on Trump's board of bigotry believe the move helps hasten Jesus' Second Coming, a long hoped-for event at which Jews will have to choose between casting aside their religion or burning in hell for eternity, according to this exclusionary and contemptuous line of thinking. Does Jeffress hold elective office? No. But he has something pretty valuable: access to and influence over POTUS.
