Well, if you wanna get picky sure you can say Mexican isn't a race but try making the same argument to a Jew. Trump was targeting a specific group, a very large group, of people. So to makes things simpler I will replace racist remarks with prejudiced remarks. Better?

Irrelevant.
I have just proven your assertion false. He bashed China while at the same time claiming to love them.
You have quote-mined to serve your argument. Serve up the entirety of the context. But we both know you won't.

You are still avoiding posting a racist comment.
“As a matter of accuracy,” Ben Mathis-Lilley writes at Slate, “if someone who says Mexican immigrants in America are disproportionately likely to be rapists, argues that Muslims should not be allowed into the United States, and repeats sleazy urban legends about the behavior of American Muslims and black people is not a racist, then the word has no meaning.”
ccording to a book written by former Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino president John R. O’Donnell, the real estate mogul once said in 1991 that “Laziness is a trait in blacks.” He was allegedly referring to a black accountant working for Trump Plaza, and added, ““Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.” The kicker is that Trump, in a 1999 Playboy magazine interview, did not even deny saying those things. He admitted O’Donnell’s allegations were “probably true,”

He does love china. He does plenty of business there. You have proved nothing except your tendency to quote-mine.

I thought you believed Trump and took him for his word. But when his own words show what you deny, it's quote mining?
Textbook example of cognitive dissonance.
Then let's settle it and post the context of his quote.

Looks as though another member has already done that for me.
I'm not sure you know what context means.
Well no #. Do you think I would honestly think that China would be able to actually physically rape our economy? Of course not. Such a feet isn't something a country's economy is capable of doing.
That doesn't prove your point that Trump likes China though. In fact, the grossly negative verb Trump uses kind of reinforces his dislike for the country.
Fine you believe him. I really don't care. I think his real words bleed through rather easily making it easy to tell when he is lying about his beliefs, but hey if you want to worship the man then knock yourself out. I really don't care to argue about Trump anymore. It's become a waste of my time for reasons that would likely offend you and result in me having to argue with you further. So don't worry about it.
