If Trump straight-out said "I'm racist, deal with it." ... what would your reaction be?



I'd be glad he was finally honest about it so Democrats could hammer him with the quote, and somewhat respect that he had the balls to directly admit it.

Have we really set the bar this low?

He might crack 70% in West Virginia if he did this.

Nah, most people would still justify voting for him with "w-w-w-w-well, at least he's not Hillary Clinton! Plus, he has the (R) next to his name!"

They'd say "Donald, you've never been accused of racism until you committed the unforgivable act of running against Democrats"

.... I guess you could live in your own little Democratic fantasy land then.

Paaaa......lease.

There has to be a higher degree or standard applied to subject matter creation on these forums.

What if Hillary Clinton came out and said "I'm a lying corporate shill" deal with it? Would you respect her for the honesty?

If he said it now, before the convention, I'm sure the party would do everything possible to refuse giving him the nomination at the convention.

Why should ANYBODY be surprised if Trump said that?

His supporters would love him for "speaking his mind" and "telling it like it is"

Yep. I'm confused why this is even a question.

And of course, anybody who attacked him for it would be labeled SJWs, PC police, and anti-1st-Amendment-ers. It would be one more example of liberals trying to silence people they disagree with.

Not a SJW, PC policeman or contra the 1st amendment warrior. And I'd still blast Trump for it.

Now this might actually be evidence that he's a Democratic plant, if it actually happened.

Neither are most people who get accused of those things by the right, but that doesn't stop the accusations from flying.

I've had Trumpets on this very site call me racist for supporting Cruz. FFS.

I think we are all dealing with it already, so it would make absolutely no difference.

Whether someone is privately racist or not is not a consideration when I vote. I do care about racist policies though, which is why I hesitated to back Trump after the David Duke incident. (I was still leaning Clinton at that point) I'm actually somewhat surprised at myself for so easily forgiving him for that.
