Scenario:

Recently, the Greatest President Ever committed an oopsie daisy and re-Tweeted a video of a man yelling “White Power”. Now, you know that President Trump isn’t racist, so obviously he was being sarcastic when he sent that tweet. But not everyone is saying the same. Some on The Left are trying to say that it was almost like, obvious that the guy in the video was saying that?

You decide to keep browsing Twitter to get your mind off radical Cancel Culture. You’re scrolling through your Twitter news feed and minding your own business when all of a sudden you see…

What’s this? Another alt-left troll is calling YOUR president a racist? The nerve! It’s time to set this participation-trophy winner straight with some good ole’ fashioned Twitter debate. You’re not worried, you’ve been defending your favorite president at family gatherings for a few years now and you know your stuff. You bleed red, white, and blue and you were BORN for this.

You Tweet bravely:

But someone Tweets back at you:

1. To best own the Libs (with facts and logic, of course) you reply:

a. What? You mean like that whole famous “they’re rapists and murderers” speech?

b. I don’t see how it was racist for Trump to say an American judge can’t do his job because of his ethnicity.

c. Are you saying that just because he enacted procedures that resulted in Mexican children being raped by ICE agents?

d. Do you mean because of how his administration treated the family of that Mexican boy who got shot by a U.S. border security guard from across the border and died?

e. Trump can’t be racist because if you listen to the full speech, he actually said some of them were fine people.

Maybe you’re off to a good start, but another user comes back with this:

2. What do you tweet as a response?

a. Oh, come on, not that time he mocked a dead American soldier’s mother by suggesting that her husband wouldn’t let her speak?

b. You can’t be referring to that time where he advocated for murdering the innocent families of Islamic terrorists?

c. Because of the travel ban? It’s just a coincidence that those were all Muslim countries.

d. Because of his tweet criticizing Muslim American athletes? Well, he also said something nice about Muhammad Ali, so it’s fine.

e. Trump has never target Muslims. He didn’t even include Saudi Arabia in the Travel Ban, and in fact he’s selling arms to them. Would an Islamophobic person do that?

You might be standing your ground well, but a white knight jumps in with:

3. So you say:

a. Just because he’s selling an official Trump t-shirt with a stylized Nazi-emblem on it doesn’t mean he’s antisemitic.

b. Because of that time he tweeted a conspiracy montage with both the Star of David and an antisemitic catchphrase on it?

c. You must be referring to last month when he tweeted a Nazi symbol. He was probably just referencing the good parts of the Third Reich, like how they hated Communists.

d. He only left the Jewish people out of that one Holocaust memorial speech. Other people died in the Holocaust too. All lives matter.

e. He can’t be antisemitic because his grandchildren are Jewish.

Just when you thought the battle might be over, you get another notification:

4. What’s your response this time?

a. You’re only saying that because he refused to disavow David Duke and condemn the Ku Klux Klan.

b. That time he called a group of Neo-Nazis great people? Everyone knows a Nazi or two that’s a great guy once you get to know them.

c. Just because he hired one white nationalist as his White House chief of staff? He only did that once.

d. Oh, he hired a second white nationalist as a senior advisor? Well, I mean every president has a couple of white nationalists in their cabinet.

e. Trump has never ever been on the same side as any White Nationalist, ever.

Clearly by now you’ve ruffled some feathers, because another fan of the deep state pops in and says:

5. You leave one final Tweet:

a. You mean like the $85,000 he spent on ads to argue for the death penalty of the Central Park Five?

b. Such as that time he called Haiti and Africa ‘shit holes’?

c. Are you talking about that time he allegedly used the N-word on the Celebrity Apprentice, an event backed by multiple witnesses?

d. You’re referring to that whole scandal where he was involved in his father’s scheme to keep black families out of Trump properties? That was years ago, he’s probably apologized by now. He hasn’t? Are you sure?

e. He can’t be racist towards black people because Lincoln was a Republican.

How did you do? Well, if you got:

Mostly A’s, B’s, C’s, and D’s:

You didn’t defend the president very well.

Shame on you. Trump might have the best words, but you certainly don’t.

Mostly E’s:

You served your president well. Good job!

You’ve rallied against the Liberal Elite Deep State and claimed victory. Make yourself some Uncle Ben’s or all-American pancakes with Aunt Jemimah’s WITH THE MASCOT STILL ON IT OF COURSE, you’ve earned it.
