04:33:56 Retweeted @jbouie03:51:58 It seems that while I was reading folks decided to clutch their pearls over the fact that HRC described half of Trump backers as racists.
04:33:59 Retweeted @jbouie03:52:47 Which, judging from the > than 50% of Trump backers who hold negative views of blacks, Muslims, and Hispanics is almost certainly accurate. in reply to jbouie
04:34:03 Retweeted @jbouie03:53:38 Trump won the nomination by running a campaign of explicit racism. Are we really going to pretend like that didn't happen? in reply to jbouie
04:34:13 Retweeted @jbouie03:58:03 Somehow, I don't think you would see this endless excuse making for Trump supporters if the political press corps were more diverse. in reply to jbouie
04:34:17 Retweeted @jbouie04:06:37 The stakes of 2016 are clear. One candidate believes in multiracial democracy. The other is a stalking horse for white nationalists. in reply to jbouie
04:34:21 Retweeted @jbouie04:07:52 That's the whole ballgame. The Trump message is that America is for white people, and that nonwhites are to be feared or pitied or both. in reply to jbouie
