    Dear Trump: For all of history that speech will be mocked for its darkness. All bc you read from a white supremacist's script.https://twitter.com/maggieNYT/status/822802125172469765 …

        You might be able to salvage your legacy if you stop letting the white supremacist lead you around like a poodle. Your choice.

        Policy @emptywheel, policy. Trump voters relate calling Bannon a supremacist to calling them racists & rightfully so. Not helpful net-net

        They're not racists? Then why are they so intolerant of diversity?

        Trump voters? So the majority of our state is racist? Kent County too? This is not a winning approach to oppose Trump

        Actually, a majority didn't vote for Trump. A very narrow majority of voters did. Of those, many are intolerant, yes.

        Actually, let me correct that. Not EVEN a majority of "voters" voted for Trump, bc so many people didn't vote for President.

        So of the <30% of MI adults who supported Trump, yes, many are intolerant.

        You mean how does one consider a guy with long ties to white nationalist groups a white supremacist? Odd question.

        OK carry on then. There were many aspects of the speech I appreciated, and none of it spurred me to hate others.
