Dems mull whether Warren is the one to take on Trump

[stinkcat_14]

Skin color.

Calling him “cheeto” is protected under the first amendment. So given that we agree that it is perfectly legal to call him “cheeto”, where is the discrimination?

Tell me, just how is he being discriminated against? Give me the specific act of discrimination.

Okay:

Trump has no protections under any sort of discrimination laws. Anything one says about him is fair game.

You just dehumanized him, by denying him his civil rights.

 

[stinkcat_14]

You just dehumanized him, by denying him his civil rights.

I just stated the case law that showed the supreme court affirmed that words like “cheeto” are protected under the first amendment. Once again, where is the discrimination?

 

[robertmidwest]

Once again, where is the discrimination?

Trump has no protections under any sort of discrimination laws.

Did you not just deny him rights?

 

[stinkcat_14]

Did you not just deny him rights?

I will let the courts decide if orange is a protected skin color. But we agree that calling him “cheeto” is a protected activity under the constitution, do we not?

 

[robertmidwest]

I will let the courts decide if orange is a protected skin color.

The courts didn’t post on CAF:

Trump has no protections under any sort of discrimination laws.

YOU did. Now your passed the blame to the courts?

 

[robertmidwest]

Trump supporting snowflakes like you

This is unacceptable.

 

[stinkcat_14]

This is unacceptable.

You did not claim that calling him “cheeto” was discrimination? If you are fine with him being called cheeto, then I apologize. I am not sure what your point is though.

 

[robertmidwest]

I just stated the case law that showed the supreme court affirmed that words like “cheeto” are protected under the first amendment.

No you didn’t. You said:

It doesn’t matter if it is racist or not. Trump has no protections under any sort of discrimination laws. Anything one says about him is fair game.

You said he had NO rights. That is incorrect. Trump has all the rights any US citizen has.

 

[stinkcat_14]

You said he had NO rights.

No, I didn’t say he had no rights.

Now, the question is, given that you don’t dispute that it is perfectly legal to call him cheeto, where does the discrimination come in? You brought up the issue of discrimination first. My opinion on the law is irrelevant. So are you backtracking and saying that it is not discriminatory to call him cheeto?

Unless the socialists totally take over (which I doubt) the Dems won’t back Warren. They’ll pick some relatively young, good looking white guy. Watch and see.

Under normal conditions, I am sure the republicans would love to run against Elizabeth Warren. Trump is still quite a bit of a wild card, so the next election is probably going to be interesting no matter who they run.

 

[robertmidwest]

You did not claim that calling him “cheeto” was discrimination?

I said is was racist. Which it is. If I said something different please show it to me.

You did say:

you certainly are free to deny Trump any service you like.

That is incorrect along with:

Trump has no protections under any sort of discrimination laws.

Which is incorrect. Trump has all the same rights any US citizen has. You VERY clearly used the word ‘NO’.

Trump cannot be denied a service because of his skin tone.

 

[stinkcat_14]

That is incorrect along with:

What service am I required to provide Don? Be specific?

 

[robertmidwest]

What service am I required to provide Don?

What service can you deny him by skin color? You clearly stated he had no protection and it was okay deny him service.

 

[robertmidwest]

What service am I required to provide Don? Be specific?

What services do you provide people with skin tone different than Trump?

 

[stinkcat_14]

What services do you provide people with skin tone different than Trump?

I never said I would deny him service based on his skin tone. If he requested me to work for him, I would refuse, but not because of his skin tone.

 

[stinkcat_14]

What services do you provide people with skin tone different than Trump?

I mostly provide services to attorneys. But I don’t do work for people I think are sleezy. That is perfectly legal.

 

[robertmidwest]

I never said I would deny him service based on his skin tone.

I will quote AGAIN what you said:

Trump has **no ** protections under any sort of discrimination laws.

 

[robertmidwest]

If he requested me to work for him, I would refuse, but not because of his skin tone.

You couldn’t. It’s illegal. Trump is protect under anti discrimination unlike your claim.
