IA. Still a lot of missed opportunities for real improvements.

What did he say?

He said something to the effect of "If you're a Muslim who wants to join us against terror you're welcome" or "stay" or something. It was supposed to be a contrast to Trumps rhetoric, but it really wasn't great.

I mean, why aren't they saying something like "if you're a white person who hates white supremacy and swears to fight it you're welcome"? Oh! Because whites are always welcome but non-whites are only conditionally welcome???????

Which is fucking hilarious since the Americas don't fucking belongs to white people...not really...but we're not supposed to remember that.
