The race relations Rudy is talking about is MAGA related and means segregation returns. We moved away from that. Magats don't like that.

So elected Obama made fun of Trump. It made him flip and get into the race. That put him in a position to become a president which fucked up the race relations. So yeah, checkmate.

Thanks Obama!

Well, his idea of "race relation" is going back to colored people in chains and white people with whips. Getting 40 or 50 years away from that is a good thing.

Wait wait - stay with me - he's right. Because electing Obama caused people like him to be more overtly racist.

"We wouldn't have any racism if blacks just stayed in their place!" /S

"Trump gets into I think a psychological illness they have about Trump," he said. "Trump derangement syndrome is real — so obsessive."

The only people who suffer from TDS worse than the far left liberals who froth at the mouth at the mere mention of his name ...are his supporters.

Bro - you married your cousin. Shut the fuck up about “relations” of any kind.

I wonder why Republicans think that Democrats and Leftists have "Trump Derangement Syndrome" but no other Republican president ever received that degree of ire.

i think Rudi is owned by a bunch of Russians, and he speaks for them and for other losers like them

What the ever living fuck.

Well.. the conservatives used be "Staunch Democrats.." until the Nixon thing... I think every American knows that racism, and racists, severely flared-up when they felt like they had a kindred representative in Trump.
