I don't understand how anyone reasonable would think it's somehow good that he "stands by his words". He's essentially confirming he's a bigot, racist, and general waste of oxygen. Hopefully the "free market" can figure out what he does for a living and make his life suffer as much as he wants others to suffer.

You should see his voters, then you'll understand.

I guess I should have put the word "reasonable" in all caps for emphasis.

It is a little refreshing compared to blanket denial and insisting the "true" racists are the people who call him out. Or crocodile tears and insisting "that's not who I am".

But yea, still not good.

Oh I'm sure many Black folk would be interested in visiting their ancestral homelands, but they have a hard time finding them for some reason. I WONDER WHY THAT MIGHT BE.

The ridiculous thing is, Africa is doing way better now, I would like to visit myself one day.

I've got a better idea: Let's have all the white people move to Narnia.

Oo! I want to live in Narnia! I want a talking badger friend! I'll take that offer!

All the Turkish Delight I can eat? Sign me up!

Not a bad deal... on the other hand, all the Turkish Delish I can eat is like three pieces.

Yes in retrospect the Turkish Delight Diet never really got off the ground for a reason.

And that reason was Type 2 Diabetes.

My conspiracy theory is that no Turks would ever knowingly consume Turkish delights, it’s simply a deep state ploy to fatten up the rest of the world for harvesting in the future.

I would better go to Wakanda - it is the most technologically advanced nation on the planet. Narnia is just some Christian crazy world.

At least he stepped down. Most of them cling to their power. See: Clarence Thomas

So he's been dealing with way too many black people...in North Dakota?

These people are proud to be racist. Quit giving them the screen time.

Dude had only been on twitter for like a year and a half. I wonder how long he had been on truth social before bringing his trash to twitter?

Lol - His soul should stand by his body and he can watch it fade into hell where it belongs.

The wolves can take what's left.

and he needs to get the fuck out of the Home of the Free and go live in 1930s Nazi Germany with the other cowards like him
