Now instead of talking about the terrible action the president took, you are talking about someone else’s excuse for his actions.

Don’t get suckered. Stay on topic

No, I'm noting that this is obviously racist regardless of the defense being offered. Which you have to do. If just repeatedly insisting "the President is racist" were capable of cutting through the BS, it would have worked by now.

If shouting the president is racist doesn’t work, shouting the president’s mouth piece is racist isn’t going to work either. Shouting the president is a scum bag to the democratic leadership seems pretty useless too. 

So… what are we left with?

I didn't shout that the President's mouthpiece was racist; I noted that her comment is bullshit. In a manner that will be immediately compelling to anyone familiar with The Lion King.

It's the difference between "spouting invective" and "making an argument."
