Trump Retweets Far Right Propaganda

Post #1

Post by Furrowed Brow »

Britain First are one of several UK far right political groups. They organise marches and media stunts, and use social media to spread inflammatory anti immigrant and anti Islamic propaganda. Their output is always highly slanted and often factually false. They are not interested in facts or objective analysis or even debate, but they are dedicated to stirring race and religious hatred. In recent years they have taken to carrying Christian crosses when they march (though I truly doubt their commitment to religion as anything other than a very thin excuse to their brand of political hatefulness).

Donald Trump recently retweeted videos from Britain First. At least one of the videos has been debunked. At the time of writing this post he and his advisors do not appear apologetic.

A new low point? Is Trump letting down his position as President and should America expect more from their President.

Is this an example of Trump validating and mainstreaming aryan supremacy/race hate?

Hundreds of thousands of Muslims in concentration camps in eastern China, or the hundreds of thousands of Muslims we've cut to pieces with our bombs is what shoud be news, but who cares about that when media outlets can obsess over some inept politician's rant?
That inept political rant is coming from the President of the USA which makes it relevant and totally repulsive
:tongue:
Does it bother you when these things happen in other Banana Republics? If it only bothers you because it's your Banana Republic, I can see that, but ultimately it doesn't matter because it's the ranting of a puppet.

Trump is “not� an American. Some believe he was born in Germany but who knows?
Either way he is a foreign spy, spying on America, giving away our secrets for self-serving reasons. For the sake of America, trump needs to go NOW!!!!!

Nancy Patricia Pelosi is an American politician serving as speaker of the United States House of Representatives since January 2019. First elected to Congress in 1987, she is the only woman to have served as speaker and is the highest-ranking elected woman in United States history. Pelosi is second in the presidential line of succession, immediately after the vice president.

Email Pelosi and tell her to do what is right for America; NOW!!!!

News not reported in the US news, one ask why not-?
White House says bin Laden son killed in U.S. operation
Published: 09.14.19 , 18:46
President Trump issues statement, saying Hamza bin Laden, son of the late al-Qaida terror group leader, was killed in a U.S. counterterrorism activity, without providing any further details; the 30-year-old had been viewed as an eventual heir to the leadership of al-Qaida
The U.S. government in February said it was offering $1 million for help tracking down Hamza bin Laden as part of the State Department's Rewards for Justice program. The department's notice said he was married to a daughter of Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, an al-Qaida leader and Egyptian charged for his role in the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in East Africa. They were said to have two children, Osama and Khairiah, named after his parents.

I imagine that occasionally we get truth from dark sources. Because a message comes from extreme right or left does not make it, ipso facto, false. It may well accord with what one knows to be true, however dark the source.

Hi JJ50

This site is for civil debate. Time magazine named Hitler person of the year.

Focus on policy perhaps?

Sadly, during the current crisis in the Twin Cities Trump was quoted as attributing much of the discord to Antifa without presenting any evidence. He goes so far as to call it "terrorist". Yet, the majority of people here in the Twin Cities attribute the discord to far right organizations some of which have gone on record as supporting him. I have posted evidence of that claim on other threads. There can be no question that he is a divider who has failed to exercise proper, professional leadership in mitigating the virus menace and now in the chaos in the Twin Cities and throughout the land. As a matter of opinion, I attribute that to his far right political inclinations. Instead of remaining steadfast to this viewpoint, he should remember he is president of the USA, to represent while serving all Americans, and to honor all diverse interests and political inclinations.
