TRUMP: Dangerously incoherent and unprepared





LIKE A TIN-POT DICTATOR, DONALD TRUMP THREATENS FEDERAL JUDGE CURIEL: 

"On Thursday, Donald Trump escalated his racist attacks on Gonzalo Curiel, the federal judge hearing one of the fraud cases against Trump University. 

 The presumptive Republican nominee had already called the judge a “Mexican” — the Latino jurist was born in Indiana — and floated the allegation that Curiel’s ethnicity biases him against Trump because of the candidate’s immigration stance. 

Trump had threatened to use the power of the presidency against the judge, saying “we will come back in November” and people “ought to look into” the judge. 

Then, in an interview with the Wall Street Journal on Thursday, Trump said Curiel’s “Mexican heritage” presented “an absolute conflict” in hearing a case against him." --Dana Milbank


You may hate Hillary and love Trump, but Trump looks more than a little nuts these days and HRC looks and sounds presidential.

I've actually seen a couple of comments on right-wing sites like "Get your facts straight -- he's from India, not Mexico". Because obviously "Gonzalo Curiel" is such a Hindu-sounding name. I swear if these people were any dumber we'd have to water them.

They did fall for the satirical news site The Christian Times' fake story about Hillary calling the Cincinnati Zoo tragedy a racial incident. So yeah, it's easy to understand why they support Trump for the presidency.

Why should anyone be surprised at Trump's popularity with the far right? He represents everything they admire. He's not a real conservative.

Ana Navarro, Republican strategist had this to say about Trump's bigotry toward Latinos and Hispanics:

"Then Navarro got personal, and cut Donald Trump to the bone with some cold hard facts about Mexicans and people of Hispanic descent:

“This man was born in eastern Chicago. He’s an American citizen. He is just as American as Donald Trump. Mexican Americans bleed just as any other American when they go to war. They bled, just as any other American on 9/11. They fight for America, they are America. And what he is doing is disgusting, I am livid about it. If this is his strategy to win over Hispanics, he’s got a hell of a wake up call coming to him in November.”

Only Donald Trump could piss off two influential Hispanic Republican women – first Susana Martinez, and now Ana Navarro. What a great strategy Trump has, as Navarro sarcastically pointed out.

Currently, only 14 percent of Hispanics have a favorable rating of Donald Trump. Among nonwhite women, which includes Hispanics and Latinas, the number is a record low 9 percent."


I'm surprised that the 9% figure among non-white women is so high.

Reality check: No candidate can win a general election without the support of our Hispanic and Latino neighbors.

Trump is driving away even what miniscule support he had. Good job, Donnie.

DR, that is true. Actually no one knows for certain what Trump is. Other than a narcissistic demagogue and an authoritarian buffoon playing on peoples concerns and fears to gain political power. Trump is the personification of corrupt and authoritarian government. In other words tyranny of the minority.

Yet the GOP and Tea Party seem to love the thought of electing the very type of leader they should be denouncing.

Go figure.

RIP Ali said...



In December, Trump claimed that there are no Muslim sports heroes, but today, Trump called the late Muhammad Ali a champion and a wonderful guy.

Trump isn't fit to even say Ali's name.

TRUMP: “They said that I wanted Japan to get nuclear weapons. Give me a break.”

But as both Clinton and CNN have pointed out, he did say exactly that."

Liars never remember what they say because they tell so many untruths that they can't recall which is which. When you tell the truth, you never have this trouble -- forgetting what you've said about an issue.

Trump appears to be either a pathological or compulsive liar.

The Hillary quote is similar to my feelings about Truthers and other conspiracy types. It's not accurate to call them conspiracy theorists because there's actually no theory. It's more like a game of Trivial Pursuit or kids collecting baseball cards. "I'll trade you a no plane hit the Pentagon for a BBC reporting Tower 7 collapse 20 minutes early." There's no connections.

Trump and Texas Governor Abbott (real sleaze):

The Texas Attorney General’s office undertook of Trump University, which concluded that it was cheating Texans out of large sums of money; the investigation was dropped by then-AG Greg Abbott, who later got $35,000 in contributions from Trump and is now the state’s governor.


LOOK! OVER THERE! Hillary's emails!

And...

BENGHAZI!

Oh my. Another sock puppet escapee from the Daddy blog.

You are amazing Hansy. Your grasp of English and its slang is telling.

Typical of the Daddy blog's denizens. They steal other people's IDs. They're frauds, and so they're attracted to the biggest fraud in America: Donald J. Trump.

Here's the REAL Hans Schreuder.

Thanks for stopping by, Hans. Your in-depth comment reveals a truly boring faker.

Very soon, Trump will overtake all the polls. Any factors you look at will have Trump undeniably ahead..


According to Reuters' recent poll, Hillary has pulled ahead of Trump by double digits.

Poor "Hans" will soon be on suicide watch.

The modern GOP seems to be suffering a collective case of Battered Spouse Syndrome. “Yeah, he’s an evil bastard who beats and berates me constantly, but I still love him!”
