Farman,
Have no fear. I have absolutely no intention of retiring down under to a country with such an appalling human rights record.

Racism is alive and well on all sides, usually worse in non-Western countries. It is also in the eye of the beholder. No one person or group gets to define what is or isn’t racism.

Trump isn’t a racist imo. He is simply willing to acknowledge and even poke fun at racial and cultural differences. I commend him for not conforming to the media-driven PC world. That is, after all, why he was elected.
Well said...completely agree.

His father was in the Klan, Trump junior supported him. The level of intellect lacking on this forum defies belief.

My grandparents were Nazis. My relatives on the other side were southern, cotton plantation and slave owners. Does that make me a racist too?
