In reply to the discussion: Vance says 'we have to stop getting so offended' when asked about racist jokes at Trump rally [View all]doc03
(37,032 posts)26. I have to say that so-called comedian knew his audience and exactly what
an all white audience of bigots like to hear. That is what Trump's base is deplorable. I am a white Democrat in a sea of
Trump people I hear that language every day. I think that is the image they wanted to project, it fires up the base.

They're trying to normalize the use of all racist terminology, including the N word...

They laughed at the comedian's jokes during Brady's roast which were just as bad if not worse.

Another white man telling people not to be offended by racism. One day, its not a matter of if, its a matter of when

Oh? Like "we have to stop getting so offended" by stuff such as the disgraced Don Imus?
