Media attempts to redefine the term racists to mean saying things they don't like

Once upon a time, “racist” meant the belief that one race was inherently superior to another. But the media have redefined the term so that “racist” now means to criticize anything that offends a Democrat.

If you’re going to call someone racist for simply speaking, shouldn’t that person have done something like, I don't know, said something about race?

Trump told a group of Democrats to “go back” and clean up the places they came “from” before criticizing his administration. Assuming he was talking about Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, he had a point. Her short political career has been nothing more than one long criticism of the shortcomings of America, even as she’s only here after having fled war-torn Somalia. Trump also laced into Rep. Elijah Cummings’ district in Maryland because, like most Democratic cities, the poverty, crime, and tax-rates for blacks are all the same: high.

The ridiculous attempt to link Trump’s “rhetoric” to the mass shooting in El Paso is nothing more than an attempt to get anyone who believes in controlled borders to shut up. Trump has, to great political effect, been a critic of illegal immigration since 2015. It’s no surprise that Democrats and their media friends are looking for a reason to make that stop.

That’s more or less what the “racist” label is about. It’s an effort to get Trump to pipe down about the things that put Democrats on a weak defense.

The Democrats and the media have so demeaned the term to make it nearly meaningless while many on the left are openly espousing anti-white racism.  It is the race game they play in a desperate attempt to hold onto the black vote which they fear losing because the Trump economy has lifted many of them out of poverty and government dependency.
