The furor over Trump’s alleged comment is a bit much. Listen to an actual racist comment by LBJ, darling of the Great Society.
Quote:President Trump is accused of using the word “shithole” to describe some African countries, Haiti and El Salvador. The president has been slammed in the media for his reported use of profane language.
Democratic Sen. Dirk Durbin (Ill.) even suggested it was the worst vulgarity in presidential history.
“I think back at presidents throughout history and I cannot imagine a moment where a president sunk to that depth, that’s what breaks my heart,” he said.
But according to historians, we’ve had our fair share of presidential potty mouths.
“I have interviewed six presidents of the United States. I have traveled with them. I have been in their homes. They’ve been in my home on multiple occasions. I have flown on Air Force One with them and commercial jets and private jets and car caravans and Winnebagos. Went to Disney World with one. They all have used the ‘S-word.’ Even that old gentleman, Ronald Reagan, would sometimes occasionally, rarely use the ‘F-word.’ So, the White house is going to endure,” conservative author Doug Wead said.
LBJ was a true chess player of a politician. He invented the game. Trump ain't on LBJ's level, but he's a chess player just like him. They just have different goals and different technique.
LBJ is the kind of smart that actually does real damage...

Really? Wow
I mean literally with LBJ, can't believe that video has been out there so long and I never heard it.
There are other recordings of this fcker saying vile things. His phone conversations with Jackie Kennedy after JFKs death are creepier than schit. It was obvious he wanted to "comfort" Jackie..wink..wink.
Also... Some of his recorded conversations during the war are outright treasonous.
Yup. Plenty of course language by Nixon in the Watergate tapes as well. A quick primer on profanity in the White House. Spoiler---its been around long before anyone here was born.
LBJ being a coarse gross mf'er doesn't equate to all Democrats being bad.
Nixon being a coarse, gross, traitorous mf'er doesn't equate to all Republicans being bad.

wouldn't argue the point until the left and right was defined in scope.....
which leads to the conclusion, "why should it fk'n matter" -- > "both fuckbags just exposed their hypocritical agenda as they sleep with each other"

Nixon was a better president and less crooked than Obama. Nixon got caught. Obama might.

Until it happens, nixon is still the gold standard. I say that as someone whose FIL worked in his admin.

LBJ as a person = racist
LBJ as a politician = oversaw and genuinely led in the passage of the most important anti-racism legislation in the last 150 years.
He was a jumble of conflicts. He was vulgar. He stole his first election. He played hardball. But he got the Voting Rights Act passed and made it stick. And it was his leadership that did it.
Trump as a person = racist
Trump as a politician = nothing to rebut his character as a person.
