JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: DONALD TRUMP AND JIMMY KIMMEL - THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS UN-AMERICAN


COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARITCLE IN THE INDEPENDENT


Well, this is really silly.

Jimmy Kimmel might have called Trump's comments unfair or lacking civility or any of a number of other descriptions.

But un-American?

There is no such thing.

Americans - and especially American politicians - bellow stupidities and prejudices and words lacking civility every day.

The concept of "un-American" belongs to the naiveté of early Superman comic books or to the unpleasant proceedings of the former House Un-American Affairs Committee, the latter having been a public forum for hate and lies for years.


See, there is nothing unusual about Trump in America because even his critics speak nonsense.
