    I think this would be Clinton's smartest choice as VP (which is why she might not make it knowing Clinton:).

    Bring the Sanders voters back in the fold and maximize turnout among women. Women already make up a majority of the voting electorate so all you need to do is win the women's vote by the same margin that Republicans win men.

    • if they get elected wait till next wave of extreme right president candidates after they screw up the country some more. good jyob.yurimon

    Presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump doubled down Friday on attacking a federal judge for his ethnicity and argued that U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel should recuse himself from cases involving scandal-plagued Trump University.

    In an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Trump insisted Curiel’s ethnicity means he can’t be an impartial judge in matters involving him because of his immigration policy.

    “I've had terrible rulings, I've been treated very unfairly. Now, this judge is of Mexican heritage,” Trump began. “I’m building a wall. I’m building a wall.”

    Later on, Tapper again asked Trump if invoking Curiel’s heritage is necessary in criticizing the judge’s handling of the case, to which the real estate mogul said, “I think that's why he's doing it.”

    He tried to spell it out again for Tapper, saying, “We are building a wall. He's a Mexican. We're building a wall between here and Mexico.”

    @IRNlun6

    Judge Curiel is a member of the San Diego La Raza Lawyers Association, a bar association of Latino lawyers. The group’s main focus is on increasing diversity and equality in the legal field, said Luis Osuna, the president of the organization.

    The lawyers’ group and Judge Curiel are not affiliated with a national advocacy and civil-rights organization called the National Council of La Raza. That organization has vigorously criticized Mr. Trump. Some Trump backers appear to have confused the two groups.

    http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/20…

    • I don't see how belonging to a group like that would disqualify him, unless you are saying Trump is against Latinos somehow.yuekit
    • Even conservatives are calling him out for misleading people
      http://www.redstate.…
      yuekit
    • his actions in the trail plus the group associated. not the group by itself.yurimon
    • Perfectly reasonable to question the partiality of a judge who has ties to a special interests lawyers association helping 'undocumented' migrants.IRNlun6
    • This is in direct conflict with Trumps policy to build a wall. The left and it's few anti-Trump conservatives, are dangerously ceasing this to label him racistIRNlun6
    • It's no worse than belonging to the "Asian American Association" or something like that.yuekit
    • This same judge prosecuted the Mexican cartels and was targeted for assassination because of it. But he's suspect because he belongs to a Latino group?yuekit
    • They're choosing to force a racial narrative to win an election which as a consequence is causing violence at political rallies.IRNlun6
    • It's a little ridiculous isn't it? As far as I can tell only thing he did wrong was preside over a case that Trump might lose.yuekit
    • IRNlun6, how can you not see that Trump is one that brought race into it? If he is confident in his legal case, he should just let it play out.yuekit
    • A latino group who helps undocumented migrants. Same questions would stand if it was an asian group who helped undocumented migrants.IRNlun6
    • If the case is strong against him, I would think they'd do their best to not bring into question Trumps right to a fair trial.IRNlun6
    • Here's the thing. No one voting for Trump cares. Lol... this is moot. He's going to win, because he is not hillarydrake-von-drake
    • It's a silly argument. Trump himself has probably had more involvement with illegal foreign workers than this lawyers group, and no indication the judge wasyuekit
    • personally involved. Also the first thing Trump brought up was not even the lawyers group but just "he's a Mexican."yuekit
    • It's not bringing into question right to a fair trial because this argument would get laughed out of court. Notice that Trump's legal team has not actuallyyuekit
    • attempted to get judge dismissed. Instead it seems like an attempt to discredit the legal process in the eyes of his supporters in the event that he is foundyuekit
    • guilty of fraud.yuekit
    • It resulted from the judge releasing sealed documents related to case. I'll admit it's an effective attack against Trump, I just find it insidious and dangerousIRNlun6
    • The judge discredited the legal process by making a political decision over a judicial one.yurimon
    • Do you guys have enough knowledge of the legal process to know if that's in any way unusual? If anything was done wrong Trump can appeal, no need toyuekit
    • attack judge personally and talk about him being Mexican. Extremely irresponsible coming from someone who wants to be President. Do we want next generationyuekit
    • of kids growing up with this guy as their role model? lolyuekit
    • it was made out to be a personal attack, but there is validity in the choices this judge made. wood not trust.yurimon
    • It's the 'personal attack' that makes Trump ridiculous... regardless if he had a point to make. His 'point' is often lost in sound bites of stupidity.PonyBoy
    • Delivery is everything... w/Donny you are either offended or you LOVE what he's saying... there will be NO BALANCE if this fuck gets in office.PonyBoy
    • balance of what exactly?yurimon
    • pretty simple, yuri... He rubs many folks the wrong way and makes it impossible to have a real conversation when he's lacking understanding...PonyBoy
    • ... or even worse: treating whoever he's dealing with like they're the little guy in the locker room. He's a bully, dude... either you like him or hate him.PonyBoy
    • Prob is he's a 'right wing' bully... Hillz is a bully too... but she not from the right... she'll get more of a pass. W/Trump we will see constant protests.PonyBoy
    • I said it in another note... all three candidates are shit. I just see Trump creating the most unstable (unbalanced) environment.PonyBoy
    • but we have an unbalanced environment coming out of ob. if you look at SJW and PC of universities, is not exactly balance either. most people are used to itprobyurimon
    • live n see what happens. i'm still debating if its an act or he is really like this in life, business or he can change up his approach.yurimon
    • if all 3 candidates are like this then is it a result of dumbing down? like news papers using simpler english to get more readership because of comprehension.yurimon
  • BusterBoy5

    Apparently the only judge suitable enough for Donald Trump is a white Christian male. A Mexican or Muslim may have a conflict or be biased against him.

    But go ahead and believe your little fairytales of how this fuckwit isn't a racist, bigoted pig.

    • good, good, let the hate flow through you, give in to the derp sideterry_cloth

    Oh Drumpf,

    On Saturday morning, Donald Trump shared a tweet from a supporter, '@Don_Vito_08' that purported to show a black family on the “Trump Train.”

    people on Twitter were quick to point out, the photograph first appeared last year on an article about a Midwest Black Family Reunion in August.

    also the image is among the first pictures that pop up on Google when you search for “black family.”

    LOL.

    re: transgenders

    why are the righties so up in arms about this?
    who gives a fuck what sex you want to live as, the only problem is that you're not easily pigeonholed into a boy/girl category.
    oh but perverts raping everything in sight, the conservatives say. no, that's just regular old men.
    i mean, they're trying to pass as whatever sex they chose to live as, they're not in it to ogle anyone, they just want to blend in.
    why spend all this energy fighting something so banal?
    if someone does something inappropriate in any bathroom, there's plenty of laws covering that already, and they'll be busted for it.
    are you worried you might accidentally pick up a dude when the beer goggles are on? well, that should be disclosed at some part during the evening, but hell, you might like it. give it a try.
    if someone can achieve happiness just by switching their sex on a form and dressing that way, why try to cure them of some perceived mental illness and spending millions on therapy that'll be ultimately unsuccessful? they've still never managed to pray the gay away, this won't work, either.

    the only thing i'm against is holding prisons responsible for sex changes, do that shit on your own time. it's one thing if you're coming in already on the hormones, but don't start there and hold the state responsible, that's not our problem.
