You know what's weird? The press gets less angry at Trump outright insulting them than they do about things like this:

In reply to Lurker, you question is

In typical fashion, the orange-bigot attacked the black pastor from Flint.

Trump's hypocritical " outreach to the blacks" guarantees that the majority of young black voters views the GOP as a party that stands for white supremacy.

As an added insult, he thought it was a good idea to joke about Flint water at one of his white people's rallys.

Do you really believe that big money backs Trump?

In reply to So you let David Duke choose

Lurker, your question is disappointing, but predictable. Trump supporters and I have nothing in common. I described Donald Trump as an entity that discriminated against housing people of color. He led the racist birther movement. He never apologized for wanting the death penalty for the Central Park Five. He says that he has the support of 'the blacks". You observe all of this and still support a white supremacist. You ask me if I am allowing David Duke to decide my vote. David Duke did not decide my vote. Duke's support of Trump confirmed my impression of the Donald.

Trump supporters see the world much differently than I see the world. At the RNC, Trump supporters applauded when they were told that a black man with was carried out of a Baltimore police van with a severed spine and the officers in charge of his care were not found guilty of any crime. I am repulsed by Donald Trump. I am repulsed by the RNC attendees. I see the GOP leadership unwilling to address the racist their party nominated for President. I see an ongoing attempt by Republicans to suppress the votes of black people.

David Duke did not make me vote against Trump. Donald Trump and his supporters accomplished that feat. You support a racist. Trump supporters place my family at risk.

Edit to add:

Trump attempted to use the black citizens of Flint as campaign props. He was shut down by a black female pastor. The orange-bigot is not welcome.

It's not just that Duke and other white supremacist support someone like Trump. It's that they make a rational case based on their standards explaining why they support him. They couldn't do that with Hillary.

Interesting questions.

Interesting questions.
If a celebrated white supremacist decided that supporting somebody who is opposed to everything he believes in would be the best thing for his cause, I would have to admit that would freak me out. The condition would not make me vote for Trump but it would require me to rethink why the people aligned with Trump see him as their best choice.
Maybe Trump is not the best choice for white supremacists. Here is your chance to explain why.

So you let David Duke choose

In reply to Peter, we all know that the

So you let David Duke choose whom you vote for? If he switched his allegiance to Hillary, would you then vote Trump?

Lol. I watched Olbermann's

In reply to Well remember Ramona,

Lol. I watched Olbermann's list yesterday and I swear I got my second wind! The best part of his being on GQ online is nobody is likely to fire him for being politically incorrect or for donating to the Dems. Or even for being an asshole, which he is wont to do. But he's OUR asshole so I'm fine with it.

Yes, I think another way of putting the conclusions from Mike and my discussion up-thread is that the press still hasn't been taking Trump seriously as a presidential contender. And when Hillary had a big lead, they didn't think they had to.

Well remember Ramona, Hitchens would not cotton to 'Mother Teresa'. hahahahaha

Of course, depending upon brandies downed, Hitchens never liked anyone. hahahah

And for The Donald, Just hit the Slate link.

But Olberman's video is superb:

Oh God I miss Keith!

Oh, and 'they' just hate Hillary because she is 'left'. There is no reason of course. I think of Ailes and hundreds of other satans and I see no logic in any of their positions on the subject.

Oh, and by the way, if 'we' were to lose the rich liberals, we are toast.

Except the liberal rich were born with SOULS. hahahaha

Hillary is right. 50% of the T-Rump supporters are despicable.

Or Deplorable.

Nice read Ramona, as always.

I'm worried now, but I wont be worried long.
