Okay, maybe it’s not that shocking that crappy director Spike Lee thinks President Trump is racist because he thinks everything is racist. I could have just as easily wrote an article about how he thinks white appliances are racist or the lack of people willing to pay to see one of his movies is racist. The twist here is that Lee believes that the President is paying people to support him, who, for financial compensation, turn a blind eye to his racism.
“If we Americans came to study how this country started, we wouldn’t be talking about kicking immigrants out,” says filmmaker Spike Lee, in reference to 2019 marking the 400th anniversary of the arrival of 19 enslaved Africans to North American shores. pic.twitter.com/8EfHlTQFjj

Spike Lee was on CNN shooting the shit with pseudo-journalist Anderson Cooper and, because of contractual obligations, talked about what a damn racist President Trump is.
“Why are we still asking, ‘Is this guy a white supremacist?’ It’s not even a question anymore,” said Lee.
Now get ready for all of the proof Lee has that Trump is a raging white supremacist:
“I mean, the Muslim ban, all Mexicans are rapists, murderers, and drug dealers,” offered Lee.
Well, if that’s all Lee has to prove Trump is a racist, I can put his mind at ease because none of it is true. The “Muslim” ban involved restricting travel to 7 countries that sponsor terrorism and keep shitty records. Of those 7 countries, only 5 are Muslim-majorities and the ban didn’t affect 95% of the world’s Muslim population. Plus, the list of countries was prepared by the Obama administration who also thought people from these places were a threat to the U.S.
As for the that other thing…what? Trump said, when he announced his presidency, that some illegal aliens from Mexico were rapists, criminals, and drug dealers, which is 100% true. He never said all illegal aliens, all Mexicans, or all immigrants. He also never said that even the illegal ones were murderers like Lee claims.
Obviously Lee was smoking some weed before this interview because this is where he went next:
“I think that people out there really look in their heart and I truly believe people know what’s right and what’s wrong. You know that. And a lot of these people getting behind this guy… they’re gonna be on the wrong side of history with him… For money? What are you doing it for? I mean… you kneel down before the altar of the almighty dollar, then I guess all bets are off,” Lee said.
Huh?
If I’m reading this correctly, Lee claims that Trump supporters are basically good people, but they are betraying their values because Trump is paying them. As if the President is “making it rain” like cash thrown at a strip club on his supporters and so they don’t care that he’s racist.
I support President Trump. Where the hell is my money? I’ve been supporting him for free. Am I doing it wrong?
It did occur to me that Lee is full of shit and there is no Trump-support cash payment, so I don’t feel bad. There is however a Trump-rewards program that involves a booming economy and a hilariously entertaining liberal temper tantrum over his presidency, so It’s not like I haven’t been compensated.
This is obviously part of the coordinated liberal plan to paint President Trump as a racist. They sent out a memo, which Spike Lee definitely got, and he did his best to push the narrative. In fact, his words are identical to Beto O’Rourke’s concerning Trump’s make-believe racism. You’d think a guy who works in the creative film industry would be able to put his own spin on it, but he is a complete hack so maybe not.
