Lunatic Tom Arnold has been promising tapes of Donald Trump using the N-word since the 2016 election, but hasn’t produced anything besides evidence that he’s a danger to himself and the public. Trump’s snitchy ex-lawyer Michael Cohen tried to show Arnold how to slander the president with accusations of racism by simply making up some stories. It turns out Cohen is not very good at it either because his harrowing tales of Trump’s “racism” are anything but.
Cohen did an interview with Vanity Fair in which he claims he’s doing a great public service by warning everyone of Trump’s racism. I guess he’s never watched the news or heard a democrat speak, because they already claim Trump is the most racist person who has ever existed. Cohen detailed 4 separate occasions in which he says Trump was racist.
And here they are:
During our conversation, Cohen recalled a discussion at Trump Tower, following the then-candidate’s return from a campaign rally during the 2016 election cycle. Cohen had watched the rally on TV and noticed that the crowd was largely Caucasian. He offered this observation to his boss. “I told Trump that the rally looked vanilla on television. Trump responded, ‘That’s because black people are too stupid to vote for me.’”
Did black people vote for Trump? Not in significant numbers. Have the economic conditions improved greatly for black people under Trump? Yes, black unemployment is at a historical low. Since Trump has delivered for the black community while democrats have failed for decades, isn’t a sign of stupidity that blacks continue to vote against their own self-interest? Trump’s statement is both true and not racist, but that thing Cohen said about white people being “vanilla” probably falls somewhere on the racism spectrum.
#2 racist Trump statement came after Nelson Mandella died:
“[Trump] said to me, ‘Name one country run by a black person that’s not a shithole,’ and then he added, ‘Name one city,’” said Cohen.
Okay, I’ll bite. Name that non-shithole country run by a black person. Is it in Africa? The Caribbean? Probably not because those places are super-shitholes. Cohen didn’t include his long lost of prosperous black-led nations, but he could have maybe said the United States when Obama was president. Of course Obama inherited the greatest country that ever was and he did his best to ruin it, so he probably doesn’t count. In any case, despite what liberals claim, the truth is not racist.
So far Cohen is 0-2, but surely he’s just warming up and has the reals goods, right? Not so much. Here’s the #3 racist thing:
Cohen also recounted a conversation he had with Trump in the late 2000s, while they were traveling to Chicago for a Trump International Hotel board meeting. “We were going from the airport to the hotel, and we drove through what looked like a rougher neighborhood. Trump made a comment to me, saying that only the blacks could live like this.
Are there any white neighborhoods in this country that resemble the war zone ghettos of Chicago, because if there isn’t Trump’s statement is factual. Remember kiddies, facts are not racism.
And finally:
After the first few seasons of The Apprentice, Cohen recalled how he and Trump were discussing the reality show and past season winners. The conversation wended its way back to the show’s first season, which ended in a head-to-head between two contestants, Bill Rancic and Kwame Jackson. “Trump was explaining his back-and-forth about not picking Jackson,” an African-American investment manager who had graduated from Harvard Business School. “He said, ‘There’s no way I can let this black f-g win.’”
That may be homophobic, but it ain’t racist. Trump didn’t say he wouldn’t let Jackson win because he is black, just that he didn’t want him to win and that he is black. I never watched The Apprentice, but maybe Jackson wasn’t good enough and didn’t deserve to win. Being under qualified is also not racism.
After flipping on Trump in a failed effort to save his own ass, Cohen is definitely motivated to make up damaging stories about the President. Even assuming that these Cohen tales are true, which is highly unlikely, they simply aren’t racist. If Cohen really wanted to get Trump he should have embellished his stories to have the President using the N-word and dressing up in KKK robe while lynching a black person. If you’re going to lie, there’s no reason to half-ass it.
