No, I don't believe he has denounced white supremacy. I believe he has given whatever answer he thinks will work at the time in order to weasel his way out of being pressured by journalists. Remember, a narcissist is only ever interested in serving himself.
And speaking of which, no, I do not hate him. Or like him. I am glad not to be him, but that's about it. I am sincere when I say that the only thing I feel inside when it comes to Trump the human being, is a giant void. He's not worth feeding anything into. So no, I don't have to "own" anything. And it's fine if you don't "buy" that - I can't make you believe me, and that's okay. But anyone who's ever had to stickhandle a narcissist in their close personal life for any great length of time will understand what I'm talking about. Trump himself isn't worth an emotional response. His rhetoric however, is. That is my position.
I did read your response to TOD. And I'm asking you whether or not you're okay with Trump's rhetoric.
Ok, you're getting into his motives and not taking him at face value. You are answering a different question. The question: "has Trump denounced white supremacy?" has, after watching that video, an obvious answer: yes, he has. If you don't think he's sincere, as I've previously mentioned, I won't argue with you. But he has said the specific words of denouncing white supremacy 20+ times, so really what you're asking is whether I believe he is sincere, is that what you're asking? If so, then I think the answer is mostly yes, with a tinge of no. Yes, in that I don't think Trump is a white supremacist, and I think he probably thinks the white supremacists supporting him are scum. But no in the sense that he is probably happy enough taking their vote.
I think you're using semantics to pretend Trump doesn't bother you. As a person, you say he doesn't bother you, but as a politician and through his actions he does. Isn't that what we're talking about? I don't know Trump personally, I can only comment on what I see through his actions, and as you mention, his rhetoric. So to say Trump doesn't bother you but his rhetoric does, is a little disingenuous and trying to skirt the point.
If you've read my response to TOD then you have my answer. Do you want me to repeat it again? Like you want Trump to repeat for the 21st time that he denounces white supremacy?
