Can someone who supports Trump talk to me a little bit about how inspired you are to have a president who will proudly argue:

"we're going to work on our, the ghettos - are in so, the, you take a look at what's going on where you have pockets of - areas of land where you have the inner cities and you have so many things"

When pollsters call you and ask for the policies you're most concerned about, is that what you tell them? And then next tell them that you hate non-English speakers in America?

[rafta_rafta]

If you listen to the audio, he clearly understood it was offensive and tried to catch himself while saying it...and then said it anyway

Beyond the pale.

Agreed. It's amazing how he can keep me at a perpetual state of disgust given that it should have diminishing returns.

The most important issues is the ultimately when you think about are we the kind of country that just sits back or are we, you know, working on what matters in this country, such as the rising crime or also the debt, or even the ISIS.  It's terrible.

Than they would vote for Bernie in primaries?

clinton is a household name in the south.

My english is not good enough, I think. What's the problem in phrase "we're going to work on our, the ghettos"

[ApatheticAustrian]

My english is not good enough, I think. What's the problem in phrase "we're going to work on our, the ghettos"

the people living "there" don't like very much to be described in such a way...besides the point that those mostly aren't in the "inner cities" anymore.

it's a simple gaffe, helping mostly with those who are neither black nor living in "ghettos".

Yes, but is voting for household name is sign of being "too smart to fall for a) these lies and b) that fake outreach"? Was Bill Clinton's policies so good for Blacks? Was Hillary's policies for Blacks any better than Bernie's? One can argue that they voted for more electable choise, but I doubt. Do you?

Well, it's also barely English.

[ApatheticAustrian]

Was Bill Clinton's policies so good for Blacks?

he is often called "the first black president" and was reaaaally popular with the group.

It's well-established that Hillary Clinton's stepping stone to the White House isn't the most intelligent man, hence why his supporters are largely the most unintelligent segment of the American populace. Trump's sixth-grade vocabulary is a direct conduit for his Neanderthal thought process. That's what happens when you grow up with a silver foot in your mouth. Hillary is about to be the mother Trump never had

So is it just choice of word? In Sweden the police officially use this term to describe "ghettos" "särskilt  utsatta områden" that can be translated as particularly deprived areas. It is not really a definition of "ghetto", but is it so important?

This is why Blacks love the Clintons

[Erich Maria Remarque]

1. According to ^^this^^ picture Nixon was approximately âs good as Bill for Blacks. Was he also popular among them?
2. Everything is relative. Under Bill USA:s economy was good and I assume, Whites incomst have rised by approximately the same rate.

He needs to work on his own mental health issues and shut up about everything else.

Don't confuse the Trump sheep with facts!

Careful, there is a good reason he does not like to analyze himself.

Home city of Obama, Chicago bulldozed their "ghettos" i.e. housing projects and gentrified the whole area. Many left to Milwaukee, Minneapolis/Saint Paul, etc others were too sick or old and died with no homes.  Great work, Chicago.

[Green Line]

We do need to work on our ghettos.  Can somebody explain to me the issue here?  I dare any of you to venture out to Englewood and say otherwise.  We need to have a serious discussion about the ghettos of America, not just roll our eyes and say "racist".  It's an internation embaressment.  What is Hillay doing to address it?  She wont even acknowledge it.
