Donald Trump's 2016 General Election Campaign

Attacking your opponent’s weakness makes you an unethical jerk?

“I noticed that the cornerback covering my wide receiver had one leg in a cast…but it wouldn’t be ethical to throw that direction. Don’t want to be accused of jerkiness.”

Right.

When you sweep the leg, yes.

:smiley:

Trump was at a majority-black church in Flint today, invited there by the pastor to speak about Flint and its problems. When he began mouthing his usual anti-Hillary nonsense, the pastor interrupted him and told him that wasn’t why he was there.

What executives?

ETA: Kudos to the pastor for standing up to the Cheeto.

GT, we don’t allow the copying and pasting of articles like that. In the future provide a link and a brief quote. Continuing to do so may result in sanctions.

Apparently he was thanking the executives that used to run the now-closed water treatment facility:

Now, I don’t know what he thought he was thanking them for; perhaps someone should ask Mr. Trump.

Lead contamination leads to a boil order?

Actually I can’t even leave that as a facetious question. You can’t boil lead out of water. If anything that would increase lead concentration. Who made that statement, Snowboarder?

Who made what statement? The text is quoted from the Politico story linked upthread by Rick Kitchen.

[VICE has filed a lawsuit seeking Trump’s IRS audits!

](We’re suing the IRS for audits of Donald Trump’s tax returns)

Yes, it turns fact into fiction. Your point, sir?

I’m no expert, but when I read the quotation:

…I assumed that the residents have to boil their water because it’s no longer being treated (due to the center being shuttered).

(Emphasis in the quotation is mine.)

No problem. I got carried away for a momemnt.

The mods here are great. I appreciate their even temperament.

The boil order was because the water wasn’t being treated, which is why 200 people in Flint had gotten legionnaires disease.

If Trump loses, blacks will kidnap white women from Walmart & rape them. Yes, David Duke just said that.. Yet Mike Pence can’t bring himself to call Duke deplorable.

Sounds to me like David Duke has an interest in seeing Walmart stock tank.

Is David Duke smart enough to play the stock market that way? I have my doubts.

Some quick easy steps to tell if you’re a deplorable:
[ul]
[li]You think a woman’s worth is first and foremost described by her appearance[/li][li]You think African-Americans were better off on the plantation[/li][li]You think we should ban all Muslims from the country[/li][/ul]

It’s got fuck-all to do with being on food stamps, knowing the words to the national anthem, or anything else like that, and Howie Carr is either an idiot for not understanding this, or a shitstain for intentionally misrepresenting it.

I’m gonna go with “shitstain” even tho I’ve never heard his name before today.

What do I win?

It’s sad though that the article you linked to just teed things up for the “alt-right” to “prove” their claims about media obfuscation. I’m referring to this passage:

So an “alt-righter” reads this and snorts, “Vast majority? There are five times as many whites as blacks in this country, but whites don’t even commit twice as many crimes!” Now what are we on the left supposed to say back? This is just not helpful at all. :smack:

You win the nail which you have hit squarely on the head. I catch snippets of his radio show every once in a while. He’s one of these tough talking dicks who chuckles after every racist comment, followed closely by bitches and whines about liberals and elites calling him racist.

He used to have a piece on his radio show where he would read names off the police blotter that sounded Hispanic. No other context, just, “Paco Rodriguez, shop-lifting, Jesus Gonzalez, driving without a license, Pedro Santiago, aggravated mopery …” etc.

Yeah, he’s a real winner. He’s the guy who did the Native American whoop at a Trump rally to needle Elizabeth Warren.
