Trump is a racist,
http://netrightdaily.com/2016/03…
“When Donald opened his club in Palm Beach called Mar-a-Lago, he insisted on accepting Jews and blacks even though other clubs in Palm Beach to this day discriminate against blacks and Jews. The old guard in Palm Beach was outraged that Donald would accept blacks and Jews so that’s the real Donald Trump that I know.”
The Washington Post report continues, “Trump’s lawyer sent every member of the town council copies of two classic movies about discrimination: ‘A Gentleman’s Agreement,’ about a journalist who pretends to be Jewish to expose anti-Semitism, and ‘Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner’ about a white couple’s reaction to their daughter bringing home a black fiancé.”
Sometimes, in judging the character of an individual, it pays to see what people actually do when nobody’s really paying attention. When it came to segregation in the South at private, all-white country clubs, it might have been in Trump’s business interests to simply look the other way. Instead, Trump did the right thing and insisted on desegregation at his golf resort.
And he won.

Trump could prove to be the worst president of our lives, but you have to stand in awe of this one thing:
He fucking took over a political party.
So nuts.

The Surge Of Trump-Fueled Anti-Semitism Is Hitting Jewish Reporters Who Cover Him
When Jewish journalist Julia Ioffe published a lengthy profile of Donald Trump’s wife Melania in April, her computer was reportedly flooded with an avalanche of angry, anti-Semitic tweets in response.
Ioffe began retweeting the attacks to highlight their unsettling intensity, such as photoshopping a Jewish star used by the Nazi regime onto her clothing or digitally inserting her face into an image of a person detained the Auschwitz concentration camp.
She also received death threats by phone and email, prompting Ioffe to solicit the help of the Anti-Defamation League and file a police report alleging that the hateful messages included a “threat to kidnap or injure a person.”
- yeah, it's offensive, but lets not forget that the internet has always had ruthless trollingIRNlun6
- #TrumpTrollsutopian
- The trolling is less concerning than the fact that young people are getting turned on to this kind of ideology.yuekit
- It's 2016 FFS, I expected hoverboards not ISIS and white supremacist :/yuekit

Did anyone else roll their eyes when Trump claimed that as soon as he becomes president, the crime and violence will stop? Does he really think that by simply becoming president people will stop hating and hurting each other? He certainly doesn't provide any insight on how he's planning to stop it all "very quickly." At one point he said he was the most informed and best equipped person alive to handle the situation, and even his audience took a major collective pause before he literally demanded an applause.
- In all seriousness, I applaud the man for thinking he can and should fix things. But at the same time, implying that the current administration makes it worse..monospaced
- ... that's just insensitive, misinformed and naive.monospaced
- To belong to a party wanting smaller government, he's sure going to need to make it bigger than ever to: manage state and municipal police (not a federal role)mg33
- ... To deport tens of thousands of immigrants, to build and manage a border wall, and to do plenty of other things.mg33
- One could argue President Obama has not made things better. What policies has he personally championed that where implemented or successful?IRNlun6
- ACA is his only big legislative success, but with major insurers opting out and premiums increasing, it is not doing well.IRNlun6
- With the continuation of conflicts in Iraq/Afghanistan, and complicity in Ukraine, Libya, Syria, Egypt, Sudan, Honduras, his foreign policy is disastrous.IRNlun6
- And you've outlined my point precisely. Trump is claiming that nothing has been done, but at the same time, proposes nothing specific.monospaced
- As if any president could singlehandedly stop racism and violence in a significant way using methods that aren't already in place today.monospaced
- And, he wasn't talking about global conflicts. He's referring to domestic violence and the murder rates that make this nation so unique.monospaced
- So basically mono just nullified the need to vote for hillery as well. not to mention his vote obama was useless also

The Young Turks vs Alex Jones
Damn!
- that cenk is such an airbagGnash
- I remember Alex used to scream his head off about politics in Austin as a young skinny kid and would often get in trouble with cops.robotron3k
- back then his voice was pretty normal, now it's raspy from the yelling...robotron3k

Thanks, Robotron3k, great doc indeed.
Thought this should be posted here. It's very long but worth the watch.

...just saw the Trump speech, he DID kill it. Seems like people don't like that he's so confident, boisterous and brash. I look forward to Hilary's speech
- yes he did, he Killed peoples brain cells with over an hour of repeating himself without any details on any policy of any kind.moldero
- too bad he's not remotely capable of this kind of dialogue without it being written for himmonospaced
- Sounds like Obama no? we had even more hope in him. I almost voted for him but 2 wks before the election he was for banker bailout, then I knew he was a zombie.robotron3k
- just watched it. gotta say, yes, he killed it for a convention speech. well written and delivered.renderedred
- still, taking into account he's an idiot, guise, he IS probably the next pres of the US.renderedred
- Hillary thinks she has it in the bag, it's going to be her downfallmoldero
