Perhaps they are an actual trumpstaffer?

Probably realized he was doing damage to Herr Trump and honorably made his account private for awhile to keep people from digging up dirt (probably too late for that though - any press knows to get screencaps first and foremost)

Succinctly and with telling brevity these two words sum up our whole philosophy. Birth Control does not mean contraception indiscriminately practised. It means the release and cultivation of the better elements in our society, and the gradual suppression, elimination and eventual extinction, of defective stocks--those human weeds which threaten the blooming of the finest flowers of American civilization.

CNN has an article on their front page: http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/02/politics/donald-trump-tweet-graphic-star-hillary-clinton/index.html

this is the concluding paragraph:

quote:

Trump has also previously retweeted tweets from apparent neo-Nazi supporters, including one from the account "@WhiteGenocideTM," which also tweeted numerous quotes from Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.

Among our more than 100,000,000 population are Negroes, Indians, Chinese and other colored people to the number of 11,000,000. There are also 14,500,000 of foreign birth...Fifty percent are of the native white strain...the slums of Europe dumped their submerged immigrants into America...The 1920 census will in all probability tell a story of an even greater and more serious problem than did the last...

Lots of people believed in retarded bullshit in the 20th century. Until the green revolution there were a lot of Malthusians like Sanger who believed that government controls on reproduction were the only way to prevent massive famines. That doesn't necessarily make Sanger a racist, at least not compared to her contemporaries. I don't think MLK got "taken for a ride" here

Let us not forget how in the distant past there were folks who doubted the efficacy of vaccines and even sought to cast doubt on them by declaring them the cause of multiple human frailties. Or how in the Dark ages there were folk who were convinced of the healing powers inherent in trace amounts of a substance diluted into vast amounts of water. Or those misguided folk who declared most of the food produced in their time as unfit for human consumption due to genetic tampering.

I only called you a neofascist to note the hypocrisy of a Trump supporter reeeeeally reaching to call other candidates racist.

By your own argument, if Hillary had retweeted Margaret Sanger instead of saying something nice about her out loud, there'd be no problem. Even if Sanger were racist, that would be "less than 0.0001%" of all the people Hillary has ever said something nice about.
