Trump Reportedly Referred To American War Dead As 'Losers' And 'Suckers'
The president's controversial remarks from 2018 were confirmed by multiple outlets, including Fox News.
"In a conversation with senior staff members, Trump said, 'Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.' In a separate conversation, Trump referred to the marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as 'suckers' for getting killed."

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It's perfectly compatible with the thesis that blacks have been consistently denied the same educational opportunities and quality education as whites for at least the last 50 years.
Someone should explain to Mr. D'Souza that all an IQ test reliably determines is how well someone takes an IQ test. Maybe lending him a copy of Gould's The Mismeasure Of Man would be a good place to start.

Why didnt he break down "Asian Americans" to Indians? Any particular reason? Maybe because Indians they are stupiud too, you know, like Blacks?
I love it when one sort of "Undermensch" is being racist to another one, particularly since i am white, having an IQ several brackets above those of Indians and Blacks.

Actual cost of solar energy is 10 times higher.
Your evidence?!?
You need 10 times more solar panels on a cloudy day for same power output

So if the sun's not shining brightly due to cloud cover, solar panels won't absorb as much power? Whodathunkit?
Bet the panels take in even less at night. J/S

There are places in the US where cloudy weather can last for weeks and even months.
