I hate when ppl offer rebuttals with weak blanket statements fam.
Blanket statement? I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on that. My apologies, I thought my point was already obvious and self-evident.

Trump is a RACIST who used dangerous racist rehortric against black folk and others. He's given white supremacists hope they can take america back. He has a HISTORY of racist behavior.
Trump is a racist who has used racist rhetoric? I obviously don't doubt that. He's on a long list of ignorant and privileged Americans who have racist tendencies.
He's given white supremacists hope? Yes, I agree. But if your argument is that this makes him a white supremacist, which many people have argued, then I disagree for reasons I hope are already obvious. In short, that's bad logic.
But my original response wasn't even mostly directed toward this.

Now which part of anything I just posted is "exaggerated"?
My original response was directed not toward what you just posted but what you originally posted.
As previously stated, your "open white supremacist" claim sounds hyperbolic and inaccurate, especially considering how others have ran with it, even comparing Trump to Hitler, which is a disservice to how terrible Hitler truly was.
If I understood you correctly, you also claimed that Trump won his campaign by empowering racist rednecks. It seems to me that you need to do much more than empower racist rednecks to win the general election. So that also seemed hyperbolic to me.
If anything, it's that kind of general rhetoric that I find exaggerated. I try to be as objective as possible, so even though I don't like Trump, I will defend him or anyone else whom I find is being unfairly or disingenuously criticized. If I'm wrong, then I'd be more than happy to change my opinion in light of solid evidence.

Stop making blanket statements if you can't explain what you're talking about fam
With all due respect, you don't have to worry about me making blanket statements. No matter how unpopular, I say what I mean and mean what I say and can back up what I say.
You shouldn't jump the gun and automatically assume that people can't explain what they'e talking about just because they haven't given you the kind of analysis you want. You know, you can simply just ask people for clarification if that's what you want.
Edit: Oh, yeah, I forgot. You also made a point about Trump advocating black protesters to be executed. Huh? At least on surface level, that doesn't sound a little exaggerated to you? Or would you like to clarify that point?
