How, in any stretch of the imagination, is that vague slogan meant to be a rebuttal to anything?

You have long abandoned actually trying to have an argument here. If you have nothing of merit to say, feel free to say nothing.

Ever wonder if Trump is thinking he'll respect the National Parks Services when people stop going against his mission statement?

Oh man, you got me with that one. Its not often a post on here elicits that hearty of a chuckle.

Just out of curiosity, what do you think Trump's mission statement is?

Yes, like they told me on day one of Mission Statement 101: Be sure to make your mission statement as vague and nebulous as possible so it can never really be implemented or used to direct policy.

C'mon that is a marketing slogan, not a mission statement. You can do better than that.

"I guess, for you, self-serving won't be proven until you have Trump's diary in your hands with the words "I am self-serving" written on every other page..."

>Something like that. I can't prove Trump gives to charity because he just wants the good PR.

I can't read minds.

"Seriously? You call yourself a skeptic and need him to use the word "race" in order to call him a racist?"

>No, I need him to use someone's race as a means to insult them. Telling someone to go back to some country, fix its problems, and then return does not qualify.

"If you sat in a jury, you wouldn´t be able to convict a burglar of a crime unless the burglar specifically says that he/she committed a burglary?"

>A burglar can be found in possession of stolen property or caught in the act. Someone saying something without making any reference to race means they said something while never making any reference to race. As a skeptic, I need it to be there explicitly.

Being a skeptic means I have to split hairs.

"A mission statement should be unique enough to be memorable and short enough to remember. Unfortunately, some top brands just don't get it. They try and be inspirational but come across as cryptic. They attempt to be aspirational but it isn't memorable or shareable.

Some profoundly disappointing mission statements from major brands …

Yeah, I agree. If that is truly Trump's mission statement, it does fall in league with these "profoundly disappointing mission statements" that are listed among the five worst mission statements of major brands.

To quote your source again:

The 5 aspects of an effective Mission Statement:

1.     Extremely clear

2.     Answers “What By When”

3.     Evolves with time

4.     Measurable

5.     Others-focused

However, if you want to play semantics, I'll rephrase my question. What are Trump's core purposes and goals defining his presidency that you feel people are "going against"?

Ever wonder if Trump is thinking he'll respect the National Parks Services when people stop going against his mission statement?

What you think about it is your own opinion, but it is what it is. Did I pique your curiosity?

Well that's likely the point of the statement being so vague now isn't it? It's whatever he wants it to be as long as he can justify it at that point in time. Not much different than orange man bad. Pretty simple statement but it seems to get the job done.

If you are giving to charity because you want respect, you aren't being altruistic, you are being selfish. You are essentially paying for an advertisement about how good of a person you are. The motivation behind giving to charity for an altruistic individual is the knowledge you are helping others. These argument that you are putting forward are simply reinforcing the arguments I was making by listing several selfish reasons that one could use to donate to charity.

You are not being a skeptic through this conversation. One of the key attributes of a skeptic is thinking and making well reasoned conclusions using the evidence that has been presented. Your entire argument rests upon the insistence that you do not believe you should be able to use your mind to make any conclusions that aren't laid out for you like a children's book.

That isn't being a skeptic, that is called being willfully ignorant.

If denying yourself the use of your mind is what it takes in order for you to justify Trump's words, I think that says all that needs to be said.

He was using his perception of their race (which doesn't have a clear definition) to assume they had another country other then the US and that they should leave "his" country and go to "their" country. He is not only assuming they have a different origin than him, he is also putting his own origin above theirs since he thinks they should leave "his" country. This is textbook racism where you divide people and assume different value to them.
