Ah, the soft bigotry of low expectations...
Of course he would say that, who wouldn't? What, your father wouldn't? Is he from the States? Because if he was he would definitely use the N-word at some stage. He never did?? Bet he hates travellers though. Wouldn't drink with them, would he? Oh he does....emm....ok, good for him.
How about just -
Using the N-word is and was wrong, at any stage of life. And while we hope that people who did use it, at any stage, can grow and evolve, the fact is that the person we are talking about was sued by the Federal Govt in the 70s for discrimination in housing, called for the death of innocent black young men and refused to retract his words even after that innocence was proved, said that he didn't want black people handling his money, just Jews, ran a campaign of delegitimising the first President of colour, started his own campaign by calling Mexicans' rapists, instituted a Muslim ban, separated thousands of children from their parents at the border, and has actively gone after POC in the media, including female reporters asking him questions, Nascar drivers and, of course, Colin Kapernick.
After all that, can we conclude that him saying the N-word was just something that happened in the 70s, or can we safely say that he was, is and will continue to be a degenerate, horrible racist without one redeeming quality?
