If Donald Trump was black, would he have made it this far in politics?

if DT was anyone else he would have been held with no bail for having 90+ pending felonies and having been convicted of 32 already. The fact that his passport has not been restricted is clear evidence that being "rich & famous" gets you different treatment.
- There was a thing he said back in the early 2000s, and it was leaked around the 2016 election. He was talking about women, and said something to the effect of "When you're rich, and famous, they let you grab em by their pussy".
  People at the time were angry that his views were that, but, honestly, that's the life he's lived. That's the life he knows as reality. WE see it as disgusting, because he's saying that women can be treated as sex objects, and that he's ok with that. He see's it as just the world we live in, because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects. Those are the women that approach him, so that's the experience he has with women. Women who only want him for his money.
  And now we see it even applies to the courts. Maybe we should still be mad at him for having those views, but also understand why he has those views, and start holding society accountable. Maybe we should be angry at parents who don't teach their daughters to have more self respect than to find some rich guy to bang for money.
  Because at the end of the day, all trump is saying is "I get treated differently, because I'm rich."
  And as angering as that is to hear....he's not wrong. He's just an asshole.
  
  He was tried and found guilty of raping a woman.
  She wasn't some sugarbaby coming on to him; she was going about her day and he decided that he could do what he wanted.

  He also perved on teenage girls

  I don't think those Miss America contenders asked him to get handsy
  
  because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects
  That's some A+ victim blaming right there. E. Jean Carroll didn't do shit
  
  He see’s it as just the world we live in, because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects. Those are the women that approach him, so that’s the experience he has with women. Women who only want him for his money.
  ...and what world are you living in that these women are approaching him at all? He had to get a financial arrangement to buy a marriage with Melania, a person who won't fucking touch him, and slaps away his hand when he tries to touch her. He had to pay a shitload of money to have a chance with Stormy Daniels, same with Karen McDougal, and he paid even more money to try to cover up that he did.
  Trump is a rapist and the way he treats women is the way of a rapist. You're fucking deluding yourself if you think lots of attractive women have approached Donald Trump. Nearly every woman he has ever touched he has paid for the pleasure of doing so. Even when he has "grabbed women by the pussy" he pays through lawsuits. He just thinks that's the cost of being a gross rapist.
  Literally the only woman I can think of off the top of my head who we have proof who has moved on Trump is Laura fucking Loomer who isn't exactly a beautiful woman, my dude.
  I can't believe a bogus post arguing that Trump is more of a ladies man than a rapist has so many upvotes.
  
  Everywhere I come across you, you're providing yet another example of your username being spot-fucking-on.
  
  So by this logic if some 12yo girl is flirting it up big time with a grown ass man and they fuck. Instead of being mad at the man for doing this, we should blame the little 12yo girl and her parents for not raising her better(?) Should we instead sympathize with the man cus "Oh that poor guy, all he's ever known is having sex with children! Lets not blame him! Thats just his life and how he lives!"
  It's called having a set of functioning fucking Morals. I'm not going to jump off of a cliff- or better yet, get into a tin can to go and see the titanic just because "oh this is just what I'm exposed to, this is normal for me, other rich men do it so this is my life now." He is a grown ass man in his 70's now. He knows that adultery is wrong; don't blame the woman for her already shitty lifestyle. You think those woman wanna fuck Trump and his soggy ass?? Woman don't typically thrust themselves at old men with cash unless they are severely fuck outta luck and have a terrible life as is... or they just have a fetish for em. Prostitution is their JOB. And 9/10 they're likely fucking slaves to a pimp or are being trafficked. Why tf do you think Trump was friends with Epstein??!

He wouldn't have made it this far in life

Ha ha no

No, because his popularity with the cult of fools is primarily based on two things: 1. talking at a third grade level and 2. fear mongering about black and brown people.
I suppose you could add "appearing to be rich and successful" and some other ingredients in there. But I think the 2 mentioned are his biggest power sources by far.

Of course not.

I was gonna reply that Hermain Cain was probably the "Black Donald Trump", but I looked it up and Cain actually had success in his business ventures. He also was only married once.

Are you kidding? One of the big attractions of Trump is to prove the shittiest white man can beat a qualified black woman.

No.

Absolutely not. One of his core demographics is white supremacists.
- You think the white supermacists would vote Kamala / Hillary / Biden rather than Kanye?
  Another one of Trump's core demographics is the religious christians too, despite Trump not having a religious bone in his body.

No, considering his followers are white supremacists.

No, but the idea that any random white guy could get away with what Trump gets away with is also laughable. Since 2016 there have been a million and one politicians trying to act Trumpian, and none of them enjoyed the nearly success Trump has.
For reasons beyond my comprehension, Trump seems to have this larger than life persona that has allowed him to escape scandal after scandal that would doom literally any other politician.
As a fun sidenote, look up DC Mayor Marion Barry. Dude made Trump look pedestrian.

Impossible to say. He certainly wouldn't have been a real estate icon in the 80s and would probably not have been born a silver spoon trust fund baby.

He would have been evicted from his dad’s properties

Who is Herman Cain? A black man who lost to Romney in the Republican primary. He was a tea party candidate who faced accusations of harrassment and infidelity. He also quoted a song from the Pokemon movie in speeches because he didn't realize it was not an original song by Donna Summer.

Aren't most of his current supporters racist enough to not support him if he was so ?

I'm not sure anyone can explain the particular confluence of characteristics that makes TFG relatively immune from consequence. Change any one thing and he's suddenly not him, so he loses his unique appeal.
- This 🔝
  Berlusconi had a similar political appeal. After he exited politics, his party went to the biggest in Italy to insignificant.
  It will be really difficult for someone to pick up the Republican Party and run with the same platform as DJT. Many have tried it (e.g. de santis) but none is able to have the same success.

His dad would have put him up for adoption. At best

This story is from when Trump was putting up Trump Tower. The biggest scandal that he used illegal immigrants to demolish the original building. He ended up havign to pay them over $1 million for the abuses.
The part of the story that made him anathema to the Manhattan elites was that he destroyed the building after promising to preserve it. It was considered one of the loveliest buildings in the city.

- Trump initially avoided any comment about the Bonwit Teller artwork. But John Baron, a spokesperson with the Trump Organization, contacted the New York Daily News to discuss the situation. Baron informed the Daily News that “the merit of the stones was not great enough to justify the effort to save them.” Baron stated that the removal process could have set back Trump Tower’s construction timeline by two weeks. Baron also told the New York Times that he had no idea what happened to the ornate grillwork.
  Long after Baron’s initial contact, the New York Daily News learned that John Baron was actually Donald Trump, in disguise.
  WTF?
  
  You're just finding out about John Barron at this late date?
  On the other hand, keeping track of all of Trump's lies and scandals is like trying to read Lord of the Rings while watching Avengers Endgame and listening to an audio book of Game of Thrones at the same time.

Would he even make it pass “grab em by the p****” in 2016?
Bill Cosby rapped celebs for decades my man...
Also, there a one thing "trumps" race and that's being a nepo baby....
Why is this hard for society to accept lol

Would you have? No disrespect intended, it's a genuine question I earnestly implore each of us to answer to ourselves at the very least.
For variety, swap out "black" with any marginalized community of your choice: female, non-binary, undocumented alien, neurodivergent, actual human, etc.
- actual human, etc.
  Magneto has entered the chat
  
  Did he do something wrong?

Not as a Republican.

He'd have evicted himself out of his own houses and then run an ad campaign to have himself executed for a murder he didn't commit long before he entered politics properly.

According to Dave Chappelle's portrayal of Clayton Bigsby, probably not.

The current Lt. Governor of North Carolina is black and worse than Trump. Idk about the sexual assault stuff, but he's still an absolute piece of shit.
