70 bomb threats.

Many incidents of racist graffiti.

Widespread anti-semitic abuse of Jewish journalists.

White supremacism being downgraded away from being a terrorist threat by the man himself.

Can you refer me to a previous US presidential candidate, or a previous prominent US politician, where this sort of thing has happened as a result of their candidacy?

1 - Again, you don’t measure whether something is anti-semitic based on “data”, as you’ve continually tried to claim.

You don’t measure whether a swastika daubed on a wall is anti-semitic based on data.

You don’t measure whether retweet for a white supremacist account is anti-semitic based on “data”.

2 - I’m not the one who has a problem understanding issues, or whose knowledge is superficial. That’s clearly you. And it is hilarious to see you claim such when you clearly have such little knowledge.

What you do, as @anon7035031 does in a more blatant and obvious way, is to try and deflect, distort, muddy the waters with text and going down rabbit holes, to avoid answering questions.

You’ve done it again here.

When I gave you a list of questions to answer about what Trump was doing and whether you supported it, you refused to answer.

Now that is something which undoubtedly displays superficial knowledge on your part.

Like @anon7035031, you picked a side, went all in, and are now having serious problems defending your position, because you know full well it’s indefensible.

This piece shows recognition of an issue

Two retweets is your concrete evidence that a man with Jewish-converted daughter is anti-Semitic? If the fucking man on the moon paid Trump a compliment he’d retweet it. You going on about this like it’s the Zapruder tape is ludicrous.

It’s fairly pathetic at this stage.

Oooh. Bluster.

I follow the news and I read, mate.

You should try it, especially if you want to comment on a thread like this and be taken in any way seriously - you’ve already admitted you don’t follow the news and that you hadn’t even heard of Trump’s bogus terrorist attack claim.

Instead you say you “follow the markets” and “read the business pages” - “important stuff”. That should give give you a “non-superficial” analysis, not.

I’ll just repeat that for effect and to let it sink in - you weren’t even aware of the biggest worldwide story of last week.

And you have the neck to call other people’s understanding “superficial”. :smile:

Now you’re into full blown @anon7035031 meltdown mode.

I’m enjoying the fact that you are posting on this thread. You come across as someone who knows what he’s talking about; someone to take seriously.

Being taken seriously is something that is very important on the Internet.

@Rocko / @Bandage - can you please investigate this posters’ i.p / log-in details… His posting style bears a striking resemblance to a horrible, mutated, tiresome bore.

Where have you established this?

Please provide the data and evidence for this.

You said many of Trump’s voters are antisemites. The data you have provided shows this is a trivial amount of people in comparison to the 63m Trump voters during the election.

You have literally provided some tweets (which number an insignificant potential number of Trump voters when you drill down into the numbers) and some examples of lunatics graffiti and sending threats to Jews. As I said to you before, it is like me claiming that the rioters after Trump got in were all representative of Hillary Clinton voters or Obama ones, it is quite simply ludicrous.

But you have already conceded that you don’t care about data, you just know.

This is probably the best piece of ironic posting you’ve ever done.

I don’t follow the day to day news cycles all junkies get involved with during an actual administration as it pointless.

You post up some articles bashing Trump daily, well done. That you think that gives you an actual understanding of American voters is hilarious.

You post up the latest Trump bashing article, or latest discovery about what Steve Bannon said once upon a time about someone. You extrapolate that to branding millions upon millions of people as antisemites.

It is superficial and misleading, and the fact that you can’t point to any hard data to support your claims proves this. You laugh at Trump for saying something stupid and without facts, based on feeling and what he wants to be true, and you do the same yourself.

70 bomb threats. 63 million voters. Do you know if all those threats were individual threats or by a few people repeating threats?

“Many incidents” of racist graffiti. How many exactly? How many people involved?

The tweets with regards to journalists, already proven that if it were individual tweeters and if Trump voters were tweeting anti Palestine stuff it would be just 4% of Trump voters. You and I know this is relatively marginal.

Your original post critcised the “hypocrisy” of Trump followers for supporting Israel but being Antisemites. The only thing you are correct about is Trump followers being supporters of Israel. There is actual hard data on that on the total population of Trump voters.

As I posted previously, Republic voters are very likely to be pro Israel;

Trump carried the vast vast majority of normal Republican voters, 85% to 90% from polling.

Actual data.

No hard data on that populations opinion of Jews as a whole though to create the link you came up with.

Trump got a rapturous reception at CPAC (some conservative conference) and they remained standing afterwards, he started speaking but stopped and said sit down guys so the fake news won’t be able to say that I never got a standing ovation because you never sat back down again. :joy:

“They shouldn’t be allowed use sources unless they use somebodies name”

“lets not mention names” then the crowd roars up journalists names. He smiles back. 1984 hasn’t a patch on it.

:fearful:

You only see how fake the news is when you are involved, they make it all up, you saw it before the election, fake polls.

“When is the last time we won a war?”

“Immigrants are pouring into our nation and poisoning our youth”

“We are throwing the gang members the hell out of our country”
