“We’re going to be looking at a lot of different things” is the way many stories related to Donald Trump start. Inevitably, the presumptive GOP nominee’s constant refusal to directly answer questions from reporters has led to trouble for Trump.
1. Trump Is A Racist
“Donald Trump Refuses to Condemn KKK, Disavow David Duke Endorsement,” is the headline from Time on February 28. The lede of the story is “Donald Trump on Sunday refused to condemn the Ku Klux Klan or disavow his recent endorsement by former Klansman David Duke.”
The story is based off a February interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper who asked Trump, “Will you unequivocally condemn David Duke and say you don’t want his vote or the vote of other white supremacists this election?”
“Well, just so you understand, I don’t know anything about David Duke, OK? I don’t know anything about what you’re even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists,” Trump replied.
Huge news story right? The problem is that two days prior to the interview, Trump said, “I didn’t even know he endorsed me. David Duke he endorsed me, OK? I disavow. OK?”
Hillary Clinton said on March 1, “I was very disappointed that he did not disavow what appears to be support from David Duke and from the Ku Klux Klan.”

Ummm, trump labeled a majority of mexican immigrants as drug dealers and rapists. Prejudge much there Donald? He is not a racist. He's just willing to play up to the emotions of racist to get elected.
ReplyDelete255 he did not label ALL Mexican immigrants as Drug Dealers and Rapists. Please quit being ignorant. He has said many times he was referring to a lot of the illegals coming through the non-existent border as being such and our crime statistics back up what he said. You guys really do need to get a grip and LEARN about candidates rather than relying on 15 second sound bytes that are taken OUT OF CONTEXT. Your limited mental capacity is really ridiculous. He is not a racist, in fact, Trump International has the most diverse workforce in America's corporation environment. It's really ridiculous you don't know that either.
ReplyDeleteTrump changes his mind on issues just about every week, do we really want someone that inconsistent in charge of our executive branch?
ReplyDeleteAnd Hillary lies just about every time she opens her mouth. Do we really want someone an incompetent liar in charge of our executive branch? She proved her incompetence with lack of leadership in the Bengazi disaster, her continued cover-up of her State Department business through a personal e-mail server, her left-handed money deals through the Clinton Foundation where most of the funds are used by the Clintons personally, etc., etc.
ReplyDelete4:24 PM citation please? I am seeing more consistency here than I have ever experienced from a politician.
