Donald Trump Is Terrified Of Black And Brown People

[UCmeNdc]

When asked about whether he would visit Iraq, he nearly recoiled in horror, telling the interviewer, "Never!". But it was the interviewer's observation of Trump's obvious recoil in horror that gave away the game. God forbid a presidential aspirant would go to a country full of brown Muslims. It's not the religion, folks. It's the color. He's afraid.

When he was asked a follow-up question about what cities he thinks are most dangerous right here in the U.S. of A, Trump was quick to name a few. Brooklyn, he said, and “there are places in America that are among the most dangerous in the world. You go to places like Oakland. Or Ferguson. The crime numbers are worse. Seriously.”

It's no accident that he named two cities which are heavily African-American, now is it?

The bully-man is terrified. Hair Drumpf* is utterly, completely, and totally scared out of his mind by black and brown people. He doesn't merely hate them, which he certainly does. He's actually afraid of them.

2. He is fine with them while they work and make

money for him. However, he and his former butler must have had many interesting conversations.

6. The author mistakes revulsion and disgust for fear. There is no evidence of anything else.

One could have the same reactions about stepping in vomit.

He's not afraid.He doesn't see them as being as human as he is, so he sees no need.

7. Perhaps there is a 'thin line' between hate and fear. n/t

8. I think you are right nt

9. To me they are mutually exclusive. Fear requires respect, and I haven't seen any in

evidence. At all. Someone can cause you great pain, but you may never fear them. Hate is kinda the same way - you actually have to show some interest in something to spend enough effort to hate it.

Otoh, disgust and revulsion are easy and require little or no investment from us. Much more thoughtless, and perhaps damaging. Any thought that you might need to change is simply dismissed, since you put so little thought into it.

In my experience those who are weak and out of power tend to characterize such behavior as "fear", perhaps to bolster how strong they see themselves. Such talk is occasionally used to replace the real work needed to overcome a seemingly insurmountable problem., perhaps while sitting around watching cable or opining on the Internet.

More often it is used to comfort a group while they complain that their too small efforts aren't moving mountains. But it beats working...

10. Oakland and Ferguson? Two cities that have

required Federal oversight of their police departments. What a buffoon.

11. This Oaklander

Is happy for him to stay the hell out of her city.

I've heard that attitude about Oakland enough times to make me roll my eyes. Of course, it's racist.
