Speaking of clowns...
"...the fever of racism...That fever, as you said, that’s been a defining feature of a lot of our life..."
There are levels of phony. This guy fifth-degree black belt. In my lifetime, I cannot recall a more-hyped, less deliver national politician than this guy. The guy was a completely underwhelming president and he's working on he's hocking his second autobiography. Charming. Humble. Insightful, like this crapola. What a goof. Go sink some three-pointers, Prez.

...and he was President while black. Obama was a generational great, perfectly suited for the times.

Oh, Thou shalt not criticize MAS' recent spate of racially charged and misogynistic erudition?

I'll ask again: does this tactic work for you elsewhere, because it sure doesn't work here.

No intent to change you; only to call out your supercilious post[s].

Yep, "calling out." You're cartoonish.
Are you, "speaking truth to power" in your life, too?
Do you know what really gets under people's skin? Not the person who is lying, but the person who speaks some truth that the audience finds uncomfortable. You'll never get more fury than when you do that. We hear all the time now about "reckonings on race" and "real conversations." I like to take people up on that offer and, for a change, I like to introduce statistics and logic, rather than propaganda, "lived experiences," and other feelings. Most people believe what they want to believe and aren't interested in evidence to the contrary. In fact, they react quite poorly when confronted with that. If you want to know who's telling the truth, it's usually the guy whom everyone in the room is angry at. Haven't you ever noticed that before, perhaps in your own life? The criticism that bothers you most is not the unfounded, untrue accusation, it's the criticism that you know down deep is true.

Thank you for demonstrating my point.

Well done. Conoresque. "Generational great" is one of those vapid phrases that dumb people love.
I hear it usually happens when a tingle shoots up your leg.
Do you find that the racial accusations bear fruit for you elsewhere? They sure don't work here.
Hmm, who coined the phrase “Obama Derangement Syndrome”? Who castigated me for voting for McCain
against him because the lovely Sarah was on the ticket for Veep?
Got a few laughs reading your battle posts against the righties in the day.
One would think poor dear killshot was the fuhrer himself.
I did coin it, and I gladly stand by what I wrote back then about your support of McCain.
It's a bit difficult to make the arguments you made about Trump's unfitness for office when you cast that vote, knowing how plausible it was that she would move up one spot during a first or second term.
Cept Barry was unfit and he was the prez choice.
Orange of course makes them all look statesman or woman like.
Trump isn't an addict and has an IQ above 85, regardless if you wish to acknowledge that.
That Jack Cafferty clip back then is one of the best segments in the history of television. If you're searching my posts back then, surely you will come across it.

Perhaps, perhaps but he is an insane, unfit, narcissist.

I would cease with the psychological diagnoses.
It's mostly psychobabble, and mostly misapplied, too.
MAS, while I'm not a Psychiatrist, my wife is a Psychiatric Social Worker who consults with
them on a regular basis, so the topic of Donald Trump and Narcissism has not gone unnoticed. Here are a couple of 'vignettes'...
>350 Psychiatrists penned a letter expressing their concern for his mental health and observed incidences of what was termed "narcissistic rage".
>One of the Psychiatrists my wife works with commented that he'd take on a client with severe narcissistic personality disorder, but only treat the attendant 'anxieties'...since, in his opinion, the 'narcissism' was incurable (the narcissist believes they are above all others, so why listen to any doctor).
Take a look at the handbook mental health professionals use ("Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders" (DSM-5)) - you can view it on-line for free - and go to the section on Personality Disorders...Narcissism, and check out the characteristics they look for in making a determination/diagnosis. I think you'll agree with the 350 Docs that he checks all boxes (save for the one-on-one interview). Then reflect back on Trump's lifelong behavior and see if you're comfortable telling the 350 that they are mistaken.
BTW, I'm not out to 'attack' you or anyone on this matter...we have a deeply flawed person as Commander-in-Chief...this should never happen. If we have all candidates for this highest office 'vetted' for such failings in the future, we'll all be the better for it...regardless of party...certainly not an easy task, but worthwhile...wouldn't you say?
Observations, not diagnoses. He is proving all 3 right now as we post.

Obummer/Biden 3 wars,over 1 million brown and black people killed in Middle East,North Africa
(no message)
You know, some people might say Bush had some responsibility for those wars.

Of course, yet some have to pull teeth to get the many to acknowledge Obama's responsibility.
I will always remember how all those stories and images of soldiers coming home in caskets all but stopped after he took office.
Biden's presumed nominee for the DOD sounds like a suitable ghoul to get us committing more troops in more dangerous places around the world. The professionals. I'm always struck at the fabulous track records of these swamp dwellers.
Obama should have ended the war in Afghanistan like he did the one in Iraq
