I hate to defend Trump in any way, but...

I spent a lot of time here defending Obama's relationship with Jeremiah Wright. My view is not Hillary's: you should NOT be defined by whom your friends are. To me that reeks of McCarthyism. I said it in 2008 and I'm saying it now. I don't give a damn what his butler thinks. 

Im convinced that Trump is a bigot and a racist on the strength of his own statements. I don't need anyone else's.

I'll give you a 3/4 "Like" for this post...

Well I won't defend him.  Not one bit.  If his butler was indeed that much of a racist (and it appears he was by what I read) then Trump should be ashamed for having associated with him.  Very bummed out to hear this news today.

 
Him masquerading as his own hype man is peak narcissism and him believing he could pull off pretending to be someone else while still using his own voice proves legitimate delusion. Trump is a super weird dude. 

 
I can't stand Trump, but seriously, who gives a #### what his butler says or thinks?  The guy who installed my lawn last summer was rocking a confederate flag bandana on his head. Does that make me a racist?

:goodposting:

If the idiot threatened the President credibly, then send him to jail. Otherwise, move along

This is why I'm surprised he's gotten as far as he did.  Long before he descended that escalator he was tweeting things that make Jose Canseco seem normal in comparison.  Birther. Anti-vax.  Truther.  Pretty much any conspiracy theory, he was on board.  To say nothing of the Rosie O'Donnell stuff, etc.  I couldn't believe THAT guy could even get near the white house. 

Now he might be our next president.  :scared:

Big difference between a guy who you hired blind for one job, versus a butler who you shared you home with for 30 something years.  I can't believe we are disagreeing on this.  It's like bizarro world in here today.  :lol:

I think if Donald receives the good pub from the lovingly devoted butler of 30 years he can take the negative of looking at who he keeps close to his family.

I'll add gosh darn isn't it amazing how the high profile journalists at NYTimes & Vanity Fair didn't catch this when they ran their pieces two months ago.

I'd guess that Trump isn't the kind of guy who's going to sit and have a beer and watch the game with his help.  I'm sure he has multiple different residences, and they are all probably huge.  I seriously doubt that he and this guy have had any lengthy heart to heart chats.  If it were his wife or something, then yeah, red flag.  A guy who works for him at one of his residences?  I really don't care.

Sorry for the oversight:

All 15 million people are wrong about Trump. is that better?

I wouldn't go so far as to say that they're all stupid, but it should be fairly obvious to any intelligent person that he's a bigoted misogynistic fraud who is supremely unqualified for the important job of President of the United States. I can't say why that's not obvious to those people, but hey, we all make mistakes in life. A cult of personality and a sense of belonging to a movement are both powerful things.

I do like your "if lots of people think something it has to be true" logic. Does that mean Obama did a great job in his first term?  Glad to hear you're such a big Obama supporter!  And what do we make of the fact of the people who have supported Clinton during this primary season, who by the way number 2 million more than those who have supported Trump?  Guess they must be right too, huh?  Boy, this is confusing.

Also I am not a vegan. Although I suppose it comes as no surprise that a Trump supporter is prone to simplistic and mistaken stereotyping of everyone who does not share their worldview.

How many people do Muslims need to behead? How many buildings do they need to blow up? How many suicide bombs need to go off before you wake the #### up?

The profanity might result in a banning, so let me try a version from a major newspaper:


 




There's much worse stuff than this btw, including stuff about hanging the president in the lobby of the "White Mosque" and so forth.

I'm not worried about Trump's inexperience in domestic and foreign affairs though, because he only hires the best people.

I heard a story from my friends brothers cousin that a guy who worked for Trump years ago posted something nasty on Facebook at the 31 flavors last night. 

:yawn:

 
Personally, I don't give a #### what his butler posted on Facebook, but that's based on the assumption that Trump didn't know about it.   The butler went full ####### on Facebook; if trump knew of it, he should have distanced himself immediately.

To be fair he hasn't been his butler since like 2008 and he denounced him immediately after it surfaced.

The real question is whether or not John Miller would distance himself immediately.

He still works at Mir A Lago at the gracious disposition of His Highness.

- Btw, wait a second, so Trump gets to accuse Cruz' father of being a conspirator to assassinate JFK and palling around with Lee Harvey freakin' Oswald, but Donald's actual family, kindly uncle-butler is off limits?

Don't strain anything with that reach. 

 
Donald Trump abruptly hung up on Washington Post reporters when they asked him Friday afternoon about reports that he used to masquerade as his own publicist in interviews.
The Post’s Marc Fisher and Will Hobson reported that they were 44 minutes into a call with Trump about his finances when they asked if he ever employed a man named John Miller as his publicist. Trump immediately went silent, and then the line went dead, they wrote.

Fisher and Hobson wrote that when they called back, Trump’s secretary told them, “I heard you got disconnected. He can’t take the call now. I don’t know what happened.”

The inquiry came the same day the Post published audio of a 1991 interview in which a man by the name of John Miller, who sounded like Trump, recounting details of the real estate mogul's love life to a reporter for People magazine.

Trump adamantly denied Friday that he was the person speaking with the People magazine reporter, saying “it doesn’t sound like me on the phone.”

"I have many, many people that are trying to imitate my voice,” he said in an interview on NBC’s “Today.” “And you can imagine that. And this sounds like one of these scams, one of the many scams, doesn’t sound like me."

Yet, as the Post reported, Trump had admitted back in the ‘90s that he made the call and said it was “a joke gone awry.”

Trump also testified in a 1990 court case that he occasionally used the names John Miller and John Baron in interviews with the media, according to the Associated Press.

Elizabeth Warren is doing the Lord's work on Twitter, but the way to really win this is to mock Trump, belittle him, cut him down to size with humor and watch him implode.  He takes himself so seriously that he'll drive straight off the cliff if it's done well.

This will come in handy, John Miller can be SOS, John Barron can be Sec of Defense, each personality can have a cabinet position, this will save a lot of confirmation time.

Keith Olbermann ‏@KeithOlbermann 26m26 minutes ago

Next tv interview with @RealDonaldTrump MUST begin with "Have you ever been diagnosed as a compulsive liar or with a personality disorder?"

Keith Olbermann ‏@KeithOlbermann 27m27 minutes ago


I'd ask it myself but @RealDonaldTrump would never have the guts to sit down for a television interview with me.

Wow Keith Olbermann still has a television show somewhere? That is amazing. It is also amazing that a guy I haven't heard from in a decade thinks the future president is afraid of him. What is next is Rush Limbaugh going to make a comeback on Monday Night Football?

There's a difference between dodging him and not going on his show bc he has no ratings. I'm not even sure what his show is on. Tv, internet, fair grounds?
