![Trump Just Sparked Furor By Imitating Asian Leaders At Today’s Rally [WATCH]](http://thenewstalkers.com/discussion/image/discussion_image/36490/xxxlarge/_v=63f541512393741)
The White House is fond of theming their message of the week from time to time. We’ve had “Infrastructure Week,” “Made in America Week,” and even “American Dreams” week, whatever that meant.
Perhaps this week was themed “Bigotry Week” without anyone knowing it, a conclusion one might logically reach after a flurry of anti-Muslim and anti-black tweets by President Trump, followed by a speech he gave today in Missouri where we mocked Asian leaders.
Yes, a president of the United States mocked Asian leaders with a derogatory impersonation while cameras were rolling at an official pubic event. His speech was to supporters at a rally designed, ostensibly, to build support for the unpopular GOP tax bill making it way through congress. As tends to happen at these events, Trump went off script with a meandering anecdote that, to him anyway, illustrated a larger point about a particular policy.

This is what you elected.
You must live with it
Are those Hatch Chili's?
you asked me that once before and I said yes they are
Mr Giggles made turkey enchiladas with them Saturday night for our 28th anniversary
Couldn't find your other answer - sorry.
Ya'll in the SW?
No problem.
No, I live in Arkansas but I married a man born and raised in Denver. His family is all about the Hatch chile.
We had the commissary order them and they were shipped directly from New Mexico
One of my Marine buddies was of Mexican heritage and he made this wickedest green chili sauce from those things. No Habanaro's or Jalapano's needed. He could tune that stuff up to melt your taste buds if he wanted.
I loved it and hated it at the same time if you know what i mean.
Talk about butt hurt!
Hatch chiles can be mild to very hot to nuclear
We once had some nuclear which I put into some white chicken chili for our annual chili fest at work.
After the screaming and crying was over I got the prize for hottest that year
Nice!
Yeah he sucked me in with; hey dude these aren't Habanero's or Jalapano's, they aren't that hot. Dumb northern that i am i bought it hook line and sinker and got nuc'd the first time but i did learn to love that stuff.
Well ... most of me .....
I love to cook with green chiles. My MIL served me pork green chile the first time I met her, and I nearly made it to the moon
Live 'bout 38 miles south of Hatch and, man, talk about festivals - everybody on I-25 and even I-10 to Deming - hits Hatch and Cruces.
NMSU is working with Hatch to develop the "Hottest Pepper" in the world - scares the crap out of me.
I want to go to that some year. My in-laws have been and they've gone to the balloon festival in Albequerque?
I guess that would mean the past 52 weeks have been "Freak Out Week" for the liberals. It's funny they are like that since they claim that President Trump is "not my President".
So you're ok with a president that displays open bigotry?
you're not even bald...how can you like that hair?
Please. He calls out the NFL (an organization) for acting like spoiled, misinformed idiots, you think he's "anti-black". And he's no more anit-Muslim than any of us. But given that the last adminstration coddled the Muslim extremists to the point of sending them weapons he's "anti-Muslim".
I will give him credit. There is humor in the tweets. And it goes right along with what I said. The left / liberals are using them as a 52 week (and counting) freak out.
If they spend as much time working on some of these issues instead of whining about them, imagine how much could have been accomplished already.
check the video in the link. He's clearly mocking the Asians
I don't think he's anti-black because he called NFL player names...he's anti-black because of his past deeds.
And while I don't much care for Islam as a religion, I'm not anti-Muslim. Your president is anti-Muslim which he shows in both words and deeds.
LOL
You obviously don't know his past deeds.
So he's not your President? If you are a US citizen, he IS your President. If your not a US citizen, you are getting worked up over this because......
He refused to rent to African-Americans. That is the worst kept secret in NYC
So he's not your President?
I won't claim him and you can't make me
And I'm supposed to take your word for it? I guess you don't know about the Ellis Island Medal Of Honor award or the President working with Jesse Jackson ?
I agree, there are much more egregious displays of bigotry by Trump to use for an example.
You're right.
Not racist. Xenophobe.
And lenny....
I will be more careful next time. Thank-up for the words of advice
Dude! Please do not attempt to defend this! Even with a half ass deflection, please dont
Then don't get worked up over it.
Sadly, it's not surprising that he reverts to his ''old self''.
I seeded something the other day that explains what Trump is doing as well as anything can. Naturally it got very few comments. I won't link to it here because that would be impolite, but I will quote from the article.
"Trump’s eagerness to impugn the loyalty of African Americans is matched by the wide latitude he gives to whites. As Dale notes, when the Pittsburgh Penguins hockey team visited the White House, Trump described them as “incredible patriots.” The team is all white and most of its members are not even American citizens. As University of Southern California sociologist Ben Carrington told Dale, “You can be a white Swede or white Canadian and in Trump’s eyes you can be more of a true patriot than an African American basketball player, because you’re white.”
As Adam Serwer noted recently in The Atlantic , Trump’s presidency makes sense as the after-effect of the Obama era, when many whites felt their traditionally secure place on top of the American ethnic ladder had come under threat."
Under threat how? They're still in charge just look at Congress and the state assemblies. So a black man was elected. Did people forget that he was also white?
I'm tired of the whining from white males. And I'm not going to say straight white males, because I have a young friend who is gay and he complains about white males being put upon
From the actual article:
Sorry, but all bets are off during those PUBIC events. We all know Trump and his small hands have had problems during any PUBIC event, this was probably him just looking around for an escape route. If you watch the video, you will see him calmly keeping those smallish hands of his down, out of sight, behind the podium.
Or maybe he just had to go potty.....
More xenophobic dog-whistling.
Trump so adores playing to the Unthinking Faithful TM that he doesn't mind if his behavior makes every foreign leader question his sanity.
And his foolishness doesn't just slam our Pacific allies. He also messes around in British politics, forcing the Conservative Prime Minister to publicly rebuke him.
Of course, NT's Unthinking Faithful TM applaud. Does that tell us more about Trump... or about NT's Unthinking Faithful TM?
Do we have to pay you to use your new trademark? Because it's good

Thanks, Bob!
On what grounds would you sue? Comment removed for CoC violation [ph]
Pretty mild for Trump, really, the guy has no class.
