Hard to imagine anything much weirder than wanting to present oneself as racist in front of an African-American journalists association. Pretty much guaranteed to get a hostile reception when you do that.

There are enough true criticisms of Trump that these false headlines are embarrassing. He attempted to deny being racist. He did quite a poor job, but if this is “full racist” then what would an explicit and unapologetic claim of racial superiority be?
How is claiming Harris “turned black” not very racist?
That’s not him denying being racist, that’s him being racist
I’m not saying that he didn’t make racist statements. (I think he did.) I’m saying that, given that he didn’t go up on stage and say “whites are the master race,” he did not go “full racist” the way that this headline claims.
Having a differing definition of what “full racist” means from the author does not make it false
What’s the author’s personal definition of “full” in this context if it isn’t something like “being at the highest or greatest degree”?
You seem to be arguing that because there’s the possibility of being more obvious, then it wasn’t full.
Your example doesn’t include killing or enslaving people for their race. So it’s not full racist.
Or there is no objective line, but semi-arbitrary lines and we all get to gatekeep each other’s lines.
Because that’s the best use of our time.
He’s obviously racist. Let’s see how he does as he continues to tilt.
To me, I might read it as in not a dogwhistle, and like undeniably racist
Are you defending racism? It sounds like you’re sad Trump got called full racist, instead of half-racist, but why? Do you want to make sure poor Donny doesn’t get trash talked? Wtf?
A little racism, is too much racism. One Nazi, are too many Nazis.
well that’s a stupid take 😂
he is attacking her on behalf of her race (albeit laughably stupidly), how would you call that?
“She was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she became a Black person,” he said of Ms. Harris, whose mother was Indian American, whose father is Black and who has always identified as a Black woman.
Special Pleading for racism? Are we sure this isn’t 1924?
