Not that I condone name calling, but people calling Trump "orange" is not a reference to his race, but rather his seemingly unnatural skin color, brought about by a perceived over abundance of either spray tan or skin toner. It's more a reference to his vanity and how out of touch he is. I don't really see the point in calling Trump "orange". It's childish, but considering the terrible things he calls other people, I'm not going to shed any tears for him either. As a minor anecdote, my father often tans until his skin is a similar pigment to Trump's, and my family and I constantly worry about melanoma. |
The point was someone taking the Dem side, claiming how Trump and his supporters are racist, and then bashing Trump using a racist type skin related remark. This is proving his skin means something, which the Dems make clear skin color has no meaning and that it doesn't define people. It either does or it doesn't. You can't have it both ways.
Yes, it's childish, which is also why I pointed it out. If you're going to point out someone doing bad things, someone you want gone from their position, you don't follow that up by doing bad things, especially similar to what you just accused them of. It makes you look bad, and possibly both, which then you've just proved neither is better, so if you're going to side with one or the other, what does it really matter? You could side with neither, but that's not what the situation was here.
