Byron set up please. Superstar of the future! He’s already a superstar, but he’s a superstar of the future! Byron Donalds, Florida.
Wow, that’s nice to have you here! That’s good. He’s great. He’s good. He knows exactly what I’m talking about. That one is smart!
You have smart ones and you have some that aren’t quite so good.
Let’s not overuse weird, a ton of what he does is super weird but this isn’t really; it’s just racist which is pretty in character for him and his base
To be fair, racism is weird. It’s not normal, and most Americans are not racist. People need to start talking out and letting everyone know we don’t support that nonsense, and hopefully we’ll eradicate it.
I absolutely agree racism should be called out whenever and wherever possible, I’m just not sure calling it weird is the right way to do that.
Also most Americans may not be explicitly racist the way trump and right wingers are but the majority certainly have internal prejudices or biases. Many left leaning people I know have had to put work and intentionality into unlearning patterns of thought or biases
It’s working. It has been getting under their skin more and more.
I mean it’s getting under trumps skin because he isn’t interested in valid criticisms and only understands schoolyard level insults.
It’s working as a message on the general public even more so because Vance and Trump’s messaging has gotten further from the original populism and more focused on an in group or his qult or whatever.
I don’t think “weird” is working in the sense of having any marked impact on racism
