It's not debatable. The Trump campaign is designed to appeal to racists.

(NY Times)Donald Trump Jr. suggested on Thursday that Haitian immigrants were less intelligent than people from other countries, and claimed that there was demographic evidence to back this up. He provided none.

“You look at Haiti, you look at the demographic makeup, you look at the average I.Q. — if you import the third world into your country, you’re going to become the third world,” Mr. Trump said in an interview with Charlie Kirk on Real America’s Voice, a conservative broadcasting network. “That’s just basic. It’s not racist. It’s just fact.”


The good news is that most Americans are not racist like Trump, his spawn, and MAGA cultists.

    Kirk - like all racists - is confusing cultural differences for intelligence... most assuredly because he lacks the latter. Trump - well, everyone already knows he's an idiot.

    Donald Jr. says that third world immigrants will cause American to become third world. I am thinking of the usual immigrant stories over our 250 year history. Most immigrants came here from what we would consider third world economies.

    The Irish were fleeing poverty and famine. The main reason for the 19th century mass migration of Europeans to the United States was the dire economic conditions in Europe. Others were fleeing pogroms, ghettos and lack of opportunity.

    The education system in Haiti is in dire need of assistance as Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The Haiti educational system is ranked 177th out of 186 globally in terms of national spending on education.[3]

    The Haitian Educational System yields the lowest total rate in the education realm of the Western Hemisphere.[2] Haiti's literacy rate of about 61% (64.3% for males and 57.3% for females) is below the 90% average literacy rate for Latin American and Caribbean countries.[1]

    The country faces shortages in educational supplies and qualified teachers. The rural population is less educated than the urban.[2] The 2010 Haiti earthquake exacerbated the already constrained parameters on Haiti's educational system by destroying infrastructure and displacing 50–90% of the students, depending on locale.

    This less-than-optimal fact means most private schools are funded by American and Canadian missions, which end up educating about 90% of the students in Haiti. But, for the students who cannot afford to attend private institutions, it means that they are usually at a loss since the public education system is lacking in many respects.

    Yep - that's what it means to be poor, Odie - not black.

  5. by Donna on September 14, 2024 4:33 pm

    The Orange Oaf, who has got to be the dumbest president the US has ever had, claimed that Haitians had low IQs, which has nothing to do with educational level.


  6. by Donna on September 14, 2024 4:34 pm

    And yes, that's racist.

  7. by oldedude on September 14, 2024 6:23 pm
    princess. YOU'RE the one that's the racist. I have said over and over the Hatian Government is horribly corrupt. I've never mentioned anything about race. It's not a factor. Unless of course, YOU'RE a racist. Government corruption isn't either. Look at pedojoe's administration. It's third world corrupt. The head of the federal police is placing innocent folks on hit lists and keeping travel tabs on them much like the Russians and Chinese.

    My point is that it's really fucking hard to figure out an IQ when you're rated 177 out of 186 and your literacy rate is 30% lower than the average Latin American and Caribbean countries.

    And you really know what's funny, is you (all) are the most racist people I know. Your complete hatred of the Jews rates right up there with the German, British, or US, Neo Nazis Nationalists. You know, the little Nazis just before the war when people were on the homer bandwagon. or putting up signs in Denver about "if you're a brown person, you need to sit in the back of the bus." And donna, you're worse than indy, because he admits he hates the Jews. You hide behind mommy's pantsuit and pretends it's not so. You might as well join in with all the other dims and just admit to it. You want the Jews dead. Have them take a nice warm shower and take care of the problem.

  8. by Indy! on September 14, 2024 7:10 pm

    Step outside of your lily-white north Florida neighborhood for 5 minutes and come see where I live, queenie. I have more Haitians on just my floor of the condo than you have in your entire county.

  9. by oldedude on September 14, 2024 7:42 pm
    So you're not denying you're a Jew-Hater then. Got it. Thanks. AND again, I never mentioned race. You (and donna) did. What's kind of funny, is that I never considered race in everything I've said about Haiti. It never dawned on me. I guess that having three kids that are half latino, a daughter in law that is Jewish, and a daughter in law that is dual citizenship with Russia. I've worked with a complete mix of races and all five of the world's great religions, it's pretty fair to say I really don't give a shit about whom you live around.

  10. by Indy! on September 14, 2024 8:57 pm

    So you're not denying you're a welfare queen. I got it. Thanks. 👍

  11. by oldedude on September 14, 2024 9:33 pm
    That was never a question in the conversation. You just wanted me to respond because if I respond to you, I'm your "friend." I'm not. And you like me calling you names, that must have been what mommy did to you. You're not enough, you're worthless, are a couple of examples as the things you "assume" are "acceptance" "terms" for you. They're not.

    You're going to choose what words you're most comfortable with. I know you would really like to be a "real" "man" but can't. You have to be acknowledged by someone that actually did something in their life that makes a difference, because "knowing' someone like that makes you feel better about yourself. If I would ever treat you like a "friend" that would be better. But you're not.

    The issue with you is that I'm starting to learn that abuse gives you sexual satisfaction, so just acknowledging you is sexual gratification. For someone that is over five years old, that's fucked up. And again, I understand you're not psychologically much older than that. That's why you talk and think like a six year old.

    The one characteristic of the woke, white progressive electric limousine lovin deranged practitioners of TrumpHate that fascinates most is their need,... not to opposed Trump... but to be bigots regarding the people who support him.

    Absolutely EFFINfascinating!

    And, I'll add. When you attempt to understand why MAGAs lie to Swamppollsters about supporting Trump, start your journey there.

  13. by Ponderer on September 15, 2024 7:03 am

    The simple fact remains, as Donna pointed out:

    Saying a nation of people has low IQs is in no way the same thing as saying they are poorly educated.


    • Saying that a nation of black people is poorly educated, as olde dude points out, speaks only to the system that is supposed to educate them.

    • Saying that a nation of black people has low IQs, as Donald Trump declares, is flaming, xenophobic, pig-ignorant racism.


    Glad we could get that settled. But I do so love it when Hate rushes to defend Trump's hateful bigotry.

    He'd be so proud of you, Bill.

  14. by Ponderer on September 15, 2024 7:04 am

    Donald Trump junior, that is.

  15. by Ponderer on September 15, 2024 7:17 am

    "but to be bigots regarding the people who support him." -Hate

    I'm not a bigot towards them. I merely point out their gullibility in being the fuel that has driven Trump to the heights that he has gotten to. Without the stupid people who support him, blow off every crime he commits, and ravenously swallow every lie he tells, he wouldn't have ever gotten anywhere.

    So ignoring their part in the on-going national disaster that is Donald Trump would be ignoring a great deal of the picture and those responsible. It's not bigotry to point out Trump's supporters' ignorance. It's simply voicing a fair and accurate assessment based on their words and actions.

    Hate would have us ignore them because he is one of them. And one thing Hate dearly hates is having his blithering, gullible, willful pig-ignorance pointed out to him.

  16. by HatetheSwamp on September 15, 2024 7:56 am

    Do a quick count, po, how many MAGAs do you know personally and well?


  17. by Indy! on September 15, 2024 9:49 am

    So again - after another novella nobody reads... (s)he did NOT deny (s)he is a welfare queen.

  18. by oldedude on September 15, 2024 9:56 am
    Po, et.al.-
    The term "racist" has no punch anymore. You use it in place of anything you want to defame. I use it very specifically, because in my world, being a racist IS a thing. When it comes from a woke, white progressive electric limousine lovin deranged practitioners of TrumpHate, it means they can't think of an actual word to describe the alleged offense. So it means nothing

    The one characteristic of the woke, white progressive electric limousine lovin deranged practitioners of TrumpHate that fascinates most is their need,... not to opposed Trump... but to be bigots regarding the people who support him.
    Lead- First of all, I just had to use that (partial) quote. Thanks for that.
    I do agree, the dog whistle must have sounded to mock conservatives. Because "as everyone knows" all conservatives that believe in helping the middle class, keeping parents informed what their children are doing in school, ending lawfare, and getting real jobs out there are all "MAGAsses." And then they make up a story about them regardless of race, ethnicity, or religion. "You ain't "really black" if you vote for trumpster is just EFFING Racist. So the bigots on the left are so tied into their own realm of bigotry, they can't see outside of it.

  19. by Ponderer on September 15, 2024 10:16 am

    "The term "racist" has no punch anymore. You use it in place of anything you want to defame." -olde dude

    A completely full-blown, absolutely contemptuous, bald-faced lie.

    I have never called anyone a racist who wasn't presenting themselves as one. Such as Trump, Vance, a great deal of their supporters, many Republican Congress people, and you and Hate here have.

    It is afucking lie that I that I have ever used the label in place of anything I want to defame. It's afucking lie.

    Making you afucking liar, olde due.

  20. by HatetheSwamp on September 15, 2024 10:58 am

    pb said a quick count, po. C'mon man. Gimme a count.

  21. by oldedude on September 15, 2024 11:47 am
    I'm going to stand by what I said, simply because you can't articulate fact by dropping the F-bomb three times in one sentence. That disproves your point. And, like I said, you over-use the term so much I don't listen to it anymore.

  22. by Indy! on September 15, 2024 5:31 pm

    That's cool, OD - listening was never really your forté anyway. 🙂

  23. by oldedude on September 16, 2024 9:08 am
    At least I read posts I'm remarking on.

  24. by Ponderer on September 16, 2024 9:26 am

    Yeah but your comprehension stinks to High Heaven, od.

  25. by Indy! on September 16, 2024 9:44 am

    The only people who want to get rid of the word "racist" (or "redefine" it like others keep trying to do) - are racists. OD does not understand what the word means or how it applies. He thinks lording over other races as their "saviour" in time of war makes him Mr. Diversity. Racial equality does not happen by one race having full control over the other's well being. Just like having a few people of mixed race or religion in your family does not make one a champion of racial harmony - it makes one an American. We all have different races and religions in our families.

  26. by meagain on September 16, 2024 10:56 am
    Hmmmm!

    "On average, 79% of U.S. adults nationwide are literate in 2024. 21% of adults in the US are illiterate in 2024. 54% of adults have a literacy below a 6th-grade level (20% are below 5th-grade level). Low levels of literacy costs the US up to 2.2 trillion per year.

    From the Literacy Institute.

  27. by Indy! on September 16, 2024 2:45 pm

    Bet there's a ton of asterisks attached to that one.

  28. by oldedude on September 17, 2024 10:46 am
    OD does not understand what the word means or how it applies.

    And "Miss Princess Diversity" doesn't mind that there is a huge sexual slavery issue within the US, generally with brown and black people. Or of course, the families that had their children gutted in front of them. or their heads cut off. Or entire families burned to death. You don't care about that either, because it's in the name of Genocide, so it's okay.

  29. by oldedude on September 17, 2024 10:48 am
    Just like having a few people of mixed race or religion in your family does not make one a champion of racial harmony - it makes one an American.
    So how many non-WASPS do you have in your family? Ones that aren't drug dealers, or crack whores.

  30. by Indy! on September 17, 2024 11:07 am

    Everybody in my family is a non-WASP, queenie - every single member including my ancestors. And when I said "mixed race" - I know that means "crack whores" and "drug dealers" to a bigot like you, but not to anyone else on the board (or out there in the world).

    So far as families being gutted or their heads cut off in the USA - please source that whenever you're ready to look like the low info, zero education, goose stepping loser you are. Oh wait... that's all the time. So I guess we'll have those sources poste haste.

    As always, queenie - google the big words. 😎

  31. by oldedude on September 17, 2024 12:00 pm
    So you're admitting that to actually have concern for those women and children in slavery means nothing to you at all.

    So your ancestry is what? Italian and German? Is that what you call "mixed?" I suppose that under your Fuehrer's rules, yes. Or are you just another little Pocahantas (Lizzie Borden Warren)?

  32. by Indy! on September 17, 2024 2:12 pm

    Listen, queenie... If you expect me to get upset about your sick, meth-fueled hallucinations, you're nuts. So either post the actual information from a reliable source - or go pound sand. Those are your two choices here.

  33. by meagain on September 17, 2024 4:09 pm
    The only WASPs are inhabitants of an area of Germany. Britons are a mixture of Nordics, Anglo-Saxons, Welsh, Scottish, Irish, French, and Italians from Roman times. The best of each.

  34. by Indy! on September 17, 2024 4:32 pm

    Talking race with a wingnut is like talking string theory with a cat.
