No, why would they be racist? Whats there to investigate? It was proven he wasn't shot in the back (as reported), nor executed (hands up don't shoot crap).
So there was an investigation of the department. They looked at more than 35,000 pages of police records and interviews with employees. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/just...civil-rights-investigations-ferguson-missouri They found a pattern of civil rights abuses The department found that the FPD has a pattern or practice of: Conducting stops without reasonable suspicion and arrests without probable cause in violation of the Fourth Amendment; Interfering with the right to free expression in violation of the First Amendment; and Using unreasonable force in violation of the Fourth Amendment. The department found that Ferguson Municipal Court has a pattern or practice of: Focusing on revenue over public safety, leading to court practices that violate the 14th Amendment’s due process and equal protection requirements. Court practices exacerbating the harm of Ferguson’s unconstitutional police practices and imposing particular hardship upon Ferguson’s most vulnerable residents, especially upon those living in or near poverty.Minor offenses can generate crippling debts, result in jail time because of an inability to pay and result in the loss of a driver’s license, employment, or housing. The department found a pattern or practice of racial bias in both the FPD and municipal court: The harms of Ferguson’s police and court practices are borne disproportionately by African Americans and that this disproportionate impact is avoidable. Ferguson’s harmful court and police practices are due, at least in part, to intentional discrimination, as demonstrated by direct evidence of racial bias and stereotyping about African Americans by certain Ferguson police and municipal court officials.
As a Jew, I sure as hell hope we're a part of the reason he loses. I will happily take all of the blame.
You may not like these comments or find them distasteful- but what he is saying is effective when directed at a very specific group of voters driven by a particular issue. I suspect Trump will do well with male Jews over 35 - he has been far clearer than the Democrats on the issue of Israel.
saying things like if you’re Jewish and don’t vote for me you’re stupid, don’t have your head on straight, etc and calling Jews like Chuck Schumer a Palestinian is not effective messaging Are u suggesting that many male Jews over 35 are in favor of blowing Gaza completely off the map? Because that is Trump’s stance Trump is actively rolling around with a massive anti-semite in Laura Loomer and proudly endorsed self-proclaimed “black Nazi” and Holocaust denier Mark Robinson…republicans were all in on Kanye West until he went full mask off and said he loves Hitler MAGA marching in Charlottesville is not easily forgotten republicans, including Trump, spew antisemitic conspiracies on a daily basis and the party is infested with neo-Nazis I see no basis for Trump doing well amongst male Jews over the age of 35 Joe Biden had a +36 approval with Jews aged 40-64 in 2023 and they were +42 in favor of Biden vs Trump…Idk the breakdown of that when it comes to gender, but I doubt Jewish men and women differed significantly…Kamala has hardly been any different than Biden when it comes to Israel and Gaza, and I doubt her numbers are any worse than his
Or maybe these +35s are filthy rich like Zuckerberg and are playing both sides for more breaks. It's true he did a lot for the Orthodox adjacent vote but could he get more than 25% going all out to cash that credit? Anyhow, it sounds like a Biden moment when he told Charlemagne that if any AA didn't vote for him then they weren't black.
As far as I can tell, Jewish people will vote more Republican than they used to, because of figures like "the Squad". A Jewish friend told me "single issue vote - I don't like Trump, but the Democrats are infested with antisemites and Islamists".
You already state to me here that Tump would win a plurality. Atw the message board attempted comedian
When I look at Trump's orange face a line from Eleanor Rigby popped into my head... Wearing the face that she he keeps in jar by the door
Yeah, he's a hypocrite. Same with Muslims. He loves Muslim leaders when it comes to making millions on his investments in a little quid pro quo. He made millions in investments in Middle East countries during his Presidency, and billions poured in afterwards as the Trump family embraced the Saudis at Mar a Lago. When there were assassinations by a Saudi leader or Putin he chose to believe them over every other intelligence agency in the world, including ours. He's nothing but a guy out to richen himself, and make America whiter again. He doesn't give a damn about Jews in America either. He's made many derogatory and racist comments about them. He just cares about investments overseas, like the ones his family are involved in.
Looks like history may repeat itself...through a weird looking glass lens... This Defeated Presidential Candidate, Once the 'Best-Known Man in America,' Died in a Sanatorium Less Than a Month After Losing the Election If Horace Greeley is remembered at all today, it’s most often for the line, “Go West, young man!”—advice the crusading New York newspaper editor and antislavery advocate might have agreed with but probably never delivered in exactly those words. For much of the 19th century, however, Greeley was widely considered the best-known man in America, as celebrated for his writing as Edgar Allan Poe, Henry David Thoreau, Mark Twain and Walt Whitman, all of whom he published, with many becoming close friends. When a splinter group of Republicans, disgusted by the rampant corruption of the current administration under their own party’s Ulysses S. Grant, decided to run a third-party presidential candidate in the 1872 election, it came as little surprise that they drafted Greeley for the task. The editor’s campaign got a further boost when the Democratic Party, unable to agree on a candidate of its own, threw its support to him, too. read the rest at the link
He's gonna do well with the young male jewish voters too aged 18-30. That demographic is plugged into all the podcasts Trump has been on the last 3 weeks (full send, Adin Ross, etc.)
Not like it matters much honestly. They're like 2% of the population n most of 'em live on the east or west coast where they vote blue anyway. I think he'll get more than 20% of the black vote n thats gonna be the difference in Michigan, n Ohio. But we shall see
