Trump: "Somalia -- 98% of the people here now from Somalia don't work. They don't have to work because they steal so much. They all have a Mercedes Benz. Low IQ and they live better than you do."

Employment Rates: According to U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey data, approximately 70% of working-age Somali adults in Minnesota (where the largest U.S. Somali population resides) are employed. Their labor force participation rate is on par with overall national averages.

Republicans closing argument is an advertisement for the confederacy not the US constitution or Democracy because it threatens their existence. Had Trump lowered costs for Americans the Republic would be in terrible trouble from his racist populism. $4 gas ends the GOP instead.

Of course this is insane and abhorrently racist. But even if we tried to accept the premise, he’s saying a large mass of unintelligent people are able to develop a crime syndicate that allows them to steal luxury cars and tons of money? They just drool and believe it without pause.

🤢🤮Such garbage. At some point MAGA should really start to question why everyone believes they are racist for following this trash-talking charlatan. Because they are!

The nice thing about Trump's ever advancing dementia eating his brain like RFK diving into a dead raccoon is that he's incapable of pivoting from a losing strategy. This is why he melts down defending Vivek's ad. He can't talk about food, rent, gas or anything that matters. It's just racism 24/7.

Imagine being such a pathetic loser that you need to pay a bunch of really stupid people to listen to you, as you stand there and make up bullshit stories about a whole group of immigrants that you know nothing about, so a DIFFERENT group of idiots will like you.

Some of these folks probably didn't have to be paid ... unfortunately, there are millions of enthusiastic MAGA Republicans. They are pathetic.

Trump is the laziest racist ever. He can’t even be bothered to try and launder it through religion or pseudoscience. Just says the dumbest racist lie everyone immediately knows is a racist lie.

Trump never worked. Fred Trump crimed his way to wealth through govt housing subsidies, handed off $400M to Donald, some of it via tax fraud. Donald raped and crimed his way through multiple casino bankruptcies, ran his fat, vulgar mouth to stupid journalists, became a game-show host🤪

Curious. How can they be both low IQ AND live better than the MAGA audience? Unless he’s saying the MAGA audience is full of idiots.

This statement was designed by the President of the USA and his advisors (most obviously Stephen Miller) to inspire harassment and possibly violence against the 260,000 Somalis living in the US. 90% of whom are US citizens. How is this OK? How does THIS become just another stupid thing Trump said?

So why doesn't he do someone about it? Can't he, like, arrest them or investigate them with the FBI? Isn't he the fucking president of arresting people for no reason? Why is he only whining about all the bad things happening under his watch, isn't this all his responsibility?

So low IQ, but they somehow live better than we do. Remember when Trump bragged that he paid less taxes because he knew the system. Sounds like he is projecting his actions on the Somalians in MN. Whatever they accuse someone of is what they are guilty of!

Good grief - he just runs everything down. Do people not get fed up with that. Where has that got you. America's reputation is in tatters. Nothings better for you. You are now allied with Putin. WtF America - please wake up.

It’s never explained how people from Somilia not work, have a low IQ but yet can steal so much that they all drive Mercedes Benz…… if they can do that, they must be pretty smart…..

This is just Standard American Racism, obviously, but oh man. "Somalis don't work" is... not the stereotype here in Minneapolis. Dramatically not the stereotype.

They don't believe a word of it, but nobody believes that pro rasslin' is real either. There just there to enjoy group racism.

When I was hospitalized for a month this spring in the Twin Cities, minimum half of my nurses and CNAs were Somali. They busted their asses on that unit, and I've never received better healthcare in my entire life. I do hope they all call in sick if he and his blood clot ever roll up.

I suspect that decades from now, the smiling people in the background will be immortalized in the same way as the people jeering at Black students integrating schools in the 1950s and 60s. The moment will pass, but the photos will last forever.

“If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.” LBJ

How do we not fire someone as blatantly racist as this? It’s disgusting that this is the President of the United States. Please vote out every GOP enabler this election. This behavior should not be tolerated.

Everyone’s simultaneously too stupid to function and a criminal mastermind with a Mercedes. Telling his own supporters they’re being outsmarted by people he just called idiots. Apparently “they’re stupid, but you’re even fucking dumber” passes for a campaign message now. WTF America 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻

Reagan may have been almost as evil as Trump, but he got away with it because he was able to present as presidential in a way that the press was able to buy. For Trump to be seen as presidential he needed to be able to buy the press.

In that sense, it may ultimately be a good thing that Trump is very visibly insane - if Reagan had been having the kind of public meltdowns Trump does, his legacy would very likely have long been dismantled instead of paving the road for all this (alongside Nixon's dodging of consequences via Ford)

Reagan era racism was far more politically calculating and he truly was an abhorrent racist, as many US presidents. Trump simply views as ‘look, most white people are racist so the easiest way for me to stay in power is to say racist stuff 🤷‍♂️’

That might be how it started but from what I can tell Trump can only lie so much before he convinces even himself that whatever he's saying is true. Even moreso now that he's in his dementia days

I remember Reagan, and he wasn't nearly as bad - but he was still really bad. "Young bucks" and welfare queens in Mercedes, all of oh-so-unspecified race, were about the worst things he said. He pitched his whistle a lot higher.

ˆˆ This! If you are white and have nothing, it's not your fault. It's the fault of the cheating, thieving minorities. If a minority has something, it's not something they earned. It's something they stole from people like you. Now buy my shit and put money in the tithe jar.

Apparently, Somalians in America have worked out how to steal, hide, and continue to use Mercedeses. Pretty good effort, i'd think, if this was even vaguely true (and of course, it isn't, it's just the Trumpet being typical white-man racist against amyone vaguely off-pink).

If they’re really that low IQ but yet supposedly so easily stealing and eating our lunch, that doesn’t seem to bode well for our IQs. Of course, that’s what Trump always says - we’re a very stupid country. 🙄

He’s going full blown racist now. He doesn’t care anymore. He loves the applause and cheers. And nothing gets these MAGA fucks more excited than their shitty President spewing garbage.

I'm soon going to need to use the online dictionary for words to describe the state of the US soon. I hate using the same ones more than 10 times.

the quite part they won't say yet is blaming the jews. that's what the white supremacists they crib notes from always say: that black folks are too dumb to do this on their own and they're getting help from the jews who, like Satan, are clever but evil.

The last time I thought about voting Republican was when McCain ran; then he picked his running mate. The Tea Party was bad enough; then it turned into MAGA

Even if somalis have lower rates of employment, nobody has a 2% employment rate, period. This doesn't pass the laugh test, that said, the audence is MAGA, so they a lapping it up.
