For weeks Asians have felt left out of the discussion, with Latinos getting all the love hate. But this week it seems to be their turn, with Bush talking about Asian anchor babies and todayTrump doing an actual impression of broken english Asian negotiator "we want deal"

Of course the way things are going, this will likely only get Trump another bump up in the polls.

More racism from Trump, who would have guessed? He'll probably jump up in the polls because of this. Republicans need to WAKE UP and STOP supporting this RACIST, MEAN-SPIRITED man. His campaign LACKS SPECIFICS and is JUST a bunch of EMPTY RHETORIC. We don't need a PRESIDENT with SOLUTIONS NOT ONE WHO JUST BLOWS SMOKE!!!!!!!!!!

Time for my own racist post Smiley

For quite some time I was feeling something not right when watching Trump. And then I realized what it is: it is the same thing as Doug Ford Smiley Both speak in a way (each in his own way, of course) that I tend to associate with sane people Smiley

This is what the Republican Party is, Isaac. If you don't want to be associated with it, there are other options.

Yes, he just wants to make you shout in rage. I've seen at least two people I know well quit the party over this. It's extraordinarily frustrating, but keep in mind you, I, and people are like us are the sane ones. We will win in the end.

I thought Trump liked to talk about how smart the Chinese were. Why is he making fun of them, then? Although he sort of seems to be talking about how straight to the point they can be, which may be along the same lines... I guess?

At least this will make Jeb's comments look like small fish.

Speaking as someone who lived in an Asian country for two years, this is reprehensible. Anyone who mocks who non-native English speaking Asians speak English has probably never tried learning an Asian language.

One hears a similar line in certain socialist circles. "Capitalism is based on contradictions and therefore must collapse, we have the correct positions and the deepest understanding of the system, therefore we will eventually win." Don't delude yourself into thinking be right guarantees victory. Trump could very easily win the Republican nomination and wreck your party permanently.

Thank you.

Can you all stop being a bunch of warriors just CRAWLING to find anything you can cry about as offensive? He said it in the most harmless monotone voice, implying a stereotypical broken english dialect of a foreigner. No, it's not racist (pull out a dictionary) or mean, it's the same type of humor used like our fellow SJW's when they poke comedy, and the same type of humor you say to your buddy at the bar when you crack an asain joke.

What's the line? What WON'T be offensive in 30 years? I don't like Trump but for the love of God can you all stop bitching and moaning like twelve year old girls acting like you truly believe what he's saying is offensive? 97% of trump's "HOLY RACIST!!11" comments have been completely out of context or simple statistics.

As an anti-trump.. 98.7% of the sh**t Trump says that MSNBC whines about is literally nothing or taken completely out of context.

I tried to find what was so offensive about Trump's remarks and I assume it was him saying "We want deal!" instead of "We want a deal!"

I'm not a Trump fan, but I completely fail to find anything grossly offensive about that. At worst it's being slightly politically incorrect, and when is Trump not politically incorrect? If liberals show this as an example of Trump's racism, his poll numbers will indeed climb.

How much of a boost will this give Trump in the polls? I predict 1-3%.

Are you upset?

Why??  I ain't upset over Bush's anchor baby much less this.  I am upset that Bush would chose to throw Asian under the Bus in favor of Hispanics which portrayed the level of influence (or lack there of) Asian American in politics in general.  When Baltimore/Ferguson happen, the Left couldn't give a sh**t about the Asian victims of the looting and burning.  And right now, black lives matter dominated the left politics while the right divided on the Hispanics.  

I didn't even know I am supposed to be upset until white people pointed out to me that I should.

Of course, maybe if I am Suey Park (a person who never have any real life experience what so ever out side of her progressive education worldview) then I guess I could be a tiny bit upset.  But not only white people, the left in general on the internet even over a topic like cancel Colbert.  Because I disagree with this far left fringe, I was temporarily nolonger Asian, or gay, or poor, or politically mostly align with the liberals.  lol, I recalled one person said that they are just as equally plausible that he/she is Obama if I was indeed a gay Asian guy who think Suey Park is not only an idiot but a sexist/racist pig.

I expected an over the top me-so-horny type imitation and that was nowhere near as bad as it's made out to be. This is far from Trump's worst.

I can't believe I took the bait and wasted my cellular data on this. This wasn't anywhere near racist, only an insensitive baby with an agenda would think otherwise.

Honestly, I find Clinton's fake southern accent more offensive (mostly to my intelligence) than this.

BTW, I love pho too especially for breakfast which people tend to eat that in the morning.  I watch that speech with a friend of mine.  I am a 1st generation immigrant Viet, she is a 2nd generation immigrant Indian.  My politics aligned mostly with the liberals.  She is apolitical person, so much so that she labeled herself as a libertarian for a while without actually really knowing what it meant.  She wanted to vote for Mccain a while back and Hillary this cycle.

The two of us watch that speech.  Even through that part, we got what he was saying.  Though in my case, it is too a very simplistic world view.  And we like what he was saying.  It never cross my mind that he was offensive.  If anybody from my family watch this, believe none of them would be offended.  Because to be offended in this case, you really really need to watch out for the offensive line is.  It is one line, one demeanor.  And initially, I thought he imitating a no nonsense Japanese business man.  This is the headline, "Just go kill yourselves, Russian Deputy Prime Minister tells the Japanese." 

https://meduza.io/en/news/2015/08/24/just-go-kill-yourselves-russian-deputy-prime-minister-tells-the-japanese

This is what Trump talk about.  Just focus on being nice, so afraid of every demeanor ain't gonna win you all of the point.  If these people want real insults, go to Pakistan Defense Forum, and watch the viets, the chinese, the jap, the Filipinos, the Indonesian, Malaysian, Indian, and Pakistan slung racial slurs at each other over border dispute and national pride.

I thought this would hurt Trump, but I went into my favorite Chinese restaurant today and Trump was on the TV.  One of the proprietors, and older Chinese lady, and her daughter, were watching Trump, and they had big smiles on.  They LOVED him!  Whether they caught what he did last night, I don't know, but they LOVED him.  "He tells it like it is!" said the older lady. 

Why would this be?  One reason is that these folks sunk their own money into a new business, so they identify with Trump, the businessman.  Another is that they see Trump as a guy who's succeeded by doing big things.  A third is that these folks emigrated from China and one reason is that they prefer the freedom of America to the regimentation of China and were able to come over.

Trump is talking to Americans as Americans and urging them to talk back to him as Americans.  It's part of the 1968 Richard Nixon appeal.  This isn't racism or xenophobia, but it's not racist or xenophobic for people to be tired of their government seemingly bogged down in addressing the group-level grievances of every self-defined minority group that perceives it to be a victim of injustice (even if the injustice happened centuries ago).  There's a place for some of that, but there's also a time to insist that people focus on the fact that they are Americans, first.

While I do not back Trump I do not find what Trump said offensive at all.  I found it funny and amusing.  I find Trump quite entertaining.
