>1) The Saudi prince said something offensive in direct relation to the 9/11 attacks. Trump said nothing offensive about the White House tours. Rejecting the former gift is an exercise in principle, while rejecting the latter "gift" based on the race card is an exercise in ad hominem logic. It's not the fucking race card. It isn't. If someone is racist and you call them racist, that's calling a spade a spade. Trump has said plenty of horrible, cross-the-line things about Obama and many, many other people. He and his dirty money should have no part in our political system. And for the record, if George Soros or Bill Gates offered the same money, I'd also want Obama to turn it down. >By the way, if this is about "saving jobs," then that's another good reason to accept Trump's money, make him a bit poorer, and keep some of 750,000 Secret Service agents from losing their jobs. Obama already saved their jobs. The tours aren't happening, but the jobs are saved. -Z
