BREAKING: Trump launches into an unhinged rant, calling Elizabeth Warren a “nut job” who “has to take a drug test” and mocking Bernie Sanders as “wacky” while bizarrely praising him for being sharper than Biden. Is Trump stupid or just a huge asshole?

I just now seeded an article that applies here.

You're analyzing this in the wrong direction. You're looking at facts in order to decide if Warren is nuts. That's backwards. You must start with Trump's words. MAGA's Lord and Master said Warren is nuts . 

Therefore , Warren is nuts.

Also, this means that Trump did not say anything foolish. He cannot.

His saying something - anything - makes it true.

It's really very simple.

As I told you yesterday , Trump wouldnt know what "fair" was when it comes to  history if it punched him in the face. 

It is not unfair to have history museums focus on slavery. Not in the slightest.  As of a few years ago schools in Virginia were still teaching that slavery was not the cause of the civil war.  I dont know if they still are. A couple years ago Ron DeSantis suggested that slaves were taught trades , as if that was a mitigating factor in favor of the slaveowners. It goes on and on.  A good part of American history involves some form of prejudice and or abuse against people of color. That IS our history. 

Trump and Hegseth want to restore monuments to confederate generals.  Who in their right mind would put them, or JD Vance , in charge of portraying American history?

Because many were. That's a great example of how the left hates actual history. You don't want kids to learn about history, you want them indoctrinated with simplistic "America is bad" narrative.

A good part of American history involves some form of prejudice and or abuse against people of color.

And that's all you want kids taught.  The story of  America as the oppressor without any context.

I think having history that is "aware" would be a quality one wants from their history class, unless of course there's a whole bunch of really racist shit in our history that some folk want the rest of America to sleep through because being exposed for who they really are is embarrassing.

History Professor: "All right, now we'll discuss the roots and immediate cause of the Civil war, as the Vice President of the Confederacy stated in his speech on March 21, 1861 "African slavery as it exists among us—the proper status of the negro in our form of civilization. This was the immediate cause of the late rupture and present revolution."

MAGA revised History: "Sorry class, we'll actually be discussing how the civil war was misunderstood and was over States rights and those slave holders treated their slaves like family and besides, all those confederates were Democrats who all died or moved out of the South long ago, so there's only good Christian conservatives who've never had a racists bone in our body and have no connection with the confederacy or the Southern Democrats even though we still live in the same homes, work the same jobs, fly the same confederate flags, continue to protect confederate monuments and go to the same Churches, we're definitely NOT those white racist Southern conservatives who have deep family roots in the confederacy or related to those racists of the past. Nope, no connection at all."

Being "woke" simply means you're aware of the truth about America and its obvious blatant openly racist past and the legacy of discrimination that legacy left us with.

Perhaps conservatives just like pretending their asleep when they are experiencing something uncomfortable, like a conservative wife trying not to move as her drunk husband passes out after two thrusts.

How many slaves who were taught trades died before they could make any money off their skills as a free man. If they were taught skills prior to being set free it might somewhat worthy of approval.  

this is a list of current exhibits at the Smithsonian Museum of American History.

You'll notice the rest of Johns sentence wasn't denying that some slaves were taught trades, but that the fact that some taught their slaves trades was used as " a mitigating factor in favor of the slaveowners" which clearly it should not be. I mean, that's just stupid. Just because there were a handful of slave owners who taught their slaves a trade does not in ANY way lessen the responsibility those slave owners bear for their gross injustice and unforgiveable violence they inflicted on black Americans simply because of their skin color.

Let’s be clear again; many enslaved Africans possessed diverse skills and knowledge, including expertise in building and craftsmanship. While the specific knowledge and techniques varied depending on the ethnic and cultural backgrounds of the enslaved individuals, many Africans were skilled in traditional construction methods and architectural practices. Florida’s attempt to show the “skills training” side of slavery is an attempt to whitewash history. The black people brought to America were not cattle. They did not need skills to be “good slaves.”  The reason Africans were enslaved was for their skills and durability. Their skills drove America’s economy  and were passed down to generations of enslaved and enslavers. The Valuable Skills Taught To Black Slaves. | by Will Samuels | AfroSapiophile | Medium

A slave who knew a skill was a more valuable asset to the slaver, not that they had been given any sort of opportunity to rise out of slavery. Also, even those who were taught trades were not taught how to read and write.

Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North and South Carolina, and Virginia all passed anti-literacy laws.  South Carolina passed the first law which prohibited     slaves to read and write , punishable by a fine of £100 and six months in prison, via an amendment to its 1740 Negro Act.

se confederates were Democrats who all died or moved out of the South long ago, so there's only good Christian conservatives who've never had a racists bone in our body and have no connection with the confederacy or the Southern Democrats even though we still live in the same homes, work the same jobs

Do you really not understand the human life span? Also, I'm just curious why you think black people are so stupid as to choose to live in states that in your [removed] [✘] mind haven't changed in 160 years. The reality is that black people have been migrating from the north to the south by the thousands for decades. Republicans, of course, started winning in the south as it became less racist and more prosperous and their leadership led to a reverse migration of black people.

If what you claim is true, why would blacks ever return? They would have to be incredibly stupid or want to be treated poorly to move back to a south ruled by the same people who led it in 1860. Unlike yourself, I don't think either is true.

ing "woke" simply means you're aware of the truth about America

Lol. I don't have to make up a strawman to show how ridiculous that is. Just a few years ago, "woke" progressives were lying to kids about slavery causing the Revolutionary War.

Followed by Lies Across America: What Our Historic Sites Get Wrong  

Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong   is a 1995 book by James W. Loewen that critically examines twelve popular American   high school   history textbooks.   In the book, Loewen concludes that the textbook authors propagate false,   Eurocentric , and   mythologized   views of   American history . In addition to his critique of the dominant historical themes presented in high school textbooks, Loewen presents themes from history that he believes should be presented in high school textbooks.

Themes

In  Lies My Teacher Told Me , Loewen criticizes modern American high school history textbooks for containing incorrect information about people and events such as  Christopher Columbus , the lies and inaccuracies in the history books regarding the dealings between the Europeans and the  Native Americans , and their often deceptive and inaccurate teachings told about America's commerce in slavery. He further criticizes the texts for a tendency to avoid controversy and for their bland and simplistic style. He proposes that when American history textbooks elevate American historical figures to the status of  heroes , they unintentionally give students the impression that these figures are super-humans who live in the irretrievable past. Rather than highlighting both the positives and negatives of historical figures, Loewen argues that textbooks cause students to perceive these figures through a single lens. Loewen asserts that the muting of past clashes and tragedies makes history boring to students, especially groups excluded from the positive histories.

Sources

The twelve textbooks Loewen examined for the first edition are:

In the second edition, Loewen added a newer edition of   The American Pageant   and six additional textbooks:

Two things, or more, are possible at once. Of course the creation of America was a great positive. 

I read a short biography of Thomas Jefferson, by Christopher Hitchens , years ago. Out of a roughly two hundred page book , maybe ten pages were devoted to his owning of hundreds of slaves.  I see nothing wrong with that. If you go to Encyclopedia Britannica today and look at the articles on Jefferson, the section on him owning slaves is small.  People like Trump and Project 2025 would prefer it not be mentioned at all.

jrSmiley_86_smiley_image.gif

The vast majority of Black Americans trace their ancestry back to the Southern States, specifically the states where slavery was most prevalent before the Civil War.

What we saw happen after the civil rights act and voting rights act were actual districts that had high populations of black Americans finally getting black Americans elected to positions of authority which happened almost entirely in the Democratic party in the Southern States as the Democratic party embraced black American voters as well as authored, voted for and signed into law the civil rights act and voting rights act. Republicans of course fielded white candidates and started appealing to the white Christian conservatives in the South of which of course were almost all former Southern Democrats.

The Southern strategy worked. Those who continue to try and weasel their way around that truth are simply proving themselves rightwing racist weasels, which we all knew already so it's not really much of a surprise.

It is interesting, though a little sad, to hear rightwing conservatives claim that the majority of black Americans are apparently too stupid to know what political party has their best interests at heart because they keep voting for a party that Republicans claim is super racist against black Americans. Maybe if they whitesplain it to them they'll start to see it from the conservative Republican perspective.

he Southern strategy worked

yes, the south gradually grew less racist, more prosperous and once Democrats finally lost power, more attractive to black people, who fled democratic controlled cities in the north for opportunity in the south.

That's reality. 

Not some fantasy about the south being controlled by the same people who controlled it in 1860.  But since you believe that is truth, why won't you answer why blacks have voluntarily migrated to southern states  to be governed by people who haven't changed  since 1860? Do you think they are stupid or enjoy being oppressed?

LOL. The Southern Strategy wasn't about the South getting less racist, it was about Republicans appealing to what Republican strategist Kevin Phillips called "the Negrophobe whites" that began to quit the Democratic party. As Phillips said, "That's where the votes are. Without that prodding from the blacks, the whites will backslide into their old comfortable arrangement with the local Democrats". Republicans set out to attract the "Negrophobe whites" and they were overwhelmingly successful as is evidenced today by the Trumpublican party. The only way to not see this is to be either so blind the universe is just a blank void to you, or being intentionally obtuse so you don't have to admit the uncomfortable truth about your own political party. I'm guessing for most Republicans it's the latter.

But that's exactly what happened of course. As the Jim Crow democrats died off and the south became more prosperous and less racist it became more Republican. Then blacks started to return, reversing decades of out migration as they sought better opportunities and quality of life  in the south than in the democratic controlled northern cities.

"The lady doth protest, too much, methinks."

The fact that some believe this is just too precious. As if all those Jim Crow democrats didn't leave a legacy of racist hate in their wake and in their families that all call themselves republican now. I know Republicans are so desperate to hide their unnatural roots, the fact that they spend so much time trying to metaphorically dye them blonde and claiming its natural you'd think there was some kind of award for it.

So no, the South hasn't gotten significantly less racist, they've just been working hard to rebrand their racism and label themselves "strong on crime" (aka anti-'thug' which to them is any black person not wearing a suit) and "family values" (aka pro-psychological abuse of any lgtbq youth in schools and pushing prayer in schools).

I have relatives in Harrison, Arkansas and spent more than my share of time with the people in that area and frankly some don't even try and hide their seething racism and hate not only for minorities but even more for the liberals and progressives who stood up for them over the last several decades. But when you hear them go on and on about some worker who happened to be a minority at a store who somehow didn't do their job right and inconvenienced them in some way or some 'thug' in the news who they always assume is guilty even before hearing the story, you realize, they don't even think they're being racist, which is no doubt why they also claim the South has become less racist. Perhaps there are fewer cross burnings and lynchings than when they were kids, but the racism is still there, and you'd have to be a complete moron to dismiss it as fantasy.

not in a woke manner

People like to use that word ("Woke") often-- perhaps too often.

And many of them don't know  what it means-- some even unwilling to give a definition when asked!

Maybe they're playing "The Justice Potter Stuart" pornography card?

The famous "I'll know it when I see it". (Jacobus v. Ohio, 1964).

He doesn't even know what he's talking about. I don;t think he took any history in school. If he did, he got a big red F

I am constantly amazed at how Trump can, with a straight face, engage in such absurd levels of projection.

He constantly refers to others as liars, as bad people, etc. yet not even a hint that he recognizes that he is a psychopath and likely the most profound, famous liar alive today.

There have been several officials elected to office I don't like very much. As you are probably aware, in a Democracy you are not required to like a politician just because they won an election. 

(Anyway, some people are saying that Trump actually lost...that the voting machines were tampered with by over-zealous Trump supportes.)

Of course none of that has anything to do with the fact that Trump was mentioned several times in The #EpsteinFiles (which Pam Bondi claimed were sitting on her desk) -- those very same documents she had promised to release...but for some reason she hasn't).

Why?
