"Look at my African-American over here! Look at him!"

[tres borrachos]

WTF?

The African-American man singled out by Donald Trump at a recent rally says he does not back the New York businessman.

"I am not a Trump supporter," Gregory Cheadle told NPR News. "I went to go hear Donald Trump because I have an open mind."

During a rally Friday in California, Trump was talking about a black supporter's actions at a previous event when he spotted Cheadle in the crowd.

"Look at my African-American over here! Look at him!" Trump said. "Are you the greatest? You know what I'm talking about, OK?"

Look at my African-American over here? Is he for real? Is he a moron?

Yes. I wondered too. That was even more bizarre than most of his song and dance. But it was entertaining in an odd way.

Yes. He is really a moron.

I'm confused. Is this really still a question on people's minds? I thought him being a moron was supposed to be one of his selling points.

 

[Jetboogieman]

Yes. He is really a moron.

Certainly not a question in the mind of those mentally deficient enough to vote for him.

Just wait, it will be genius before the thread ends.

I feel sorry for you guys, I mean this is seriously a bad joke.

Our election last year, I didn't agree with the three Main parties 100%, but any one of them, Harper, Trudeau and Mulcair were more than capable leaders of the country.

But this... Jesus... Gotta ask you personally, did Sessions coming out for Trump piss you off?

I feel sorry for you guys. You aren't making this incredibly stupid decision, but your world is going to be heavily impacted by it.

I'm from Alabama. I have always trusted Sessions - hell, I've called his office just to leave messages thanking him as a constituent for standing up on one issue or another, telling them that he made me proud to be from Alabama.

That, though.


That was probably the greatest WTF moment of the entire primary. Even Chris Christie and Jerry Falwell Jr, didn't come close to rivaling that. Conscience of the Senate No More, and if I ever move back home he'll never get my vote again.

It didn't really piss me off. It was a bit deeper of a blow than that. It was the beginning of my realization that all of these figures who I assumed were part of the Conservative fight were, in fact, self-interested and/or easily conned. That my enemies were going to include my allies, and, that, like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, my allies would shrink regularly, turning into barely-recognizable husks of themselves.

I go to sleep at night now like Arya Stark:

Sean Hannity
Chris Christie
Greta van Sustren
Jeff Sessions
John Boehner
Lou Dobson
Mitch McConnell...

Don't we all have one though?

Well, when you [not you CP, but the party first, then his supporters later] publicly [as opposed to private] praise the virtues of being an outsider and having a lack of intellectual social status, does it not surprise that lack of intelligence is likewise seen as virtuous when a clown like Trump shows up?

The elected GOP officials rarely, if ever, actually believed in this nonsense, but stroked the egos of the unintelligent and misinformed populists for decades, all the same.

The GOP's public anti-intellectualism is coming with some serious consequences. The voters are following what they've been told is good judgment--namely, a lack of good judgment.

Good afternoon TB,

Any day now, I expect that Trump will tell us that he was great friends with Mohammed Ali and that Ali was a supporter of his campaign.

Exactly!

Through greed & self-interest, the GOP politicos laid the foundation of Trump's takeover of their party! Whether it was the President lacking a birth cert, to him being a Kenyan, to ACA death panels, and a myriad of other offenses, they made this happen. There was no fictional nonsense too delusional for them not to support. No matter how false and incredible the item that was stated as fact, they *never* spoke-out against it or their Party! Right now, It's the PR version of the Hastert rule (and let's ponder that a bit!).

They conditioned a large subset of their voters to believe anything!

And Trump's got them believing it!

If the party were to slide-off into oblivion, I'd not shed a tear. As bad as Trump can be, I feel the GOP establishment is as bad if not worst - just in a different manner.

Good riddance (hopefully). If Trump were to get in, he will eventually be replaced. But the current incarnation of the GOP has been around for decades, and only seem to be getting worse.

Perhaps one day I'll share how I *really* feel about them! :mrgreen:
