No, don't worry says Glenn Beck. It was only "hypothetical".He'll overstep his bounds eventually, Beck was just kicked off radio for explaining that he has a fantasy of Trump being assassinated
He's wealthy, he's conservative extremist, so he gets around still, even though he's NEVER right about anything.

He's hoping one of his hardcore bible thumpers takes the hint and try to pull off a JFK, I think cheeto face needs a few years in the loony bin tbh.No, don't worry says Glenn Beck. It was only "hypothetical".
Remember when he said Obama was a racist?
Never listened to Glenn Beck until recently
Only conservative talk show / radio I listened to was Hannity and O'Reilly because they're entertaining. Otherwise I just tuned into BBC and WSJ

James Robison: Donald Trump Could Save America From
Televangelist James Robinson on Friday urged conservatives to rally behind Donald Trump, explaining that the presumptive GOP nominee is ripe for an evangelical conversion and could stave off demonic attacks against the country.
Robinson said in an interview with the American Family Association’s Sandy Rios that if Trump loses to a Democrat, America will be given over to Satan:

Mr. Trump handled the veteran fund raising distribution poorly but he is a hero none-the-less for making his contribution. Thank you, Mr. Trump!
How the is that a racist rant?
racist, bigoted, whatever.
Trash clearly meant to slander the Hispanic-American as a Mexican, Mexican being a 4-letter word in Trash's mouth, pandering to the xenophobes and bigots.
. I thought Gonzalo was Swedish.
Holy fail.Wait a minute Reck = white pants?
Trump takes the wrong message to the wrong crowd in the wrong way
Republican Donald Trump told a motorcycle rally on Sunday that people in the U.S. illegally often are cared for better than the nation’s military veterans, without backing up his allegation.The assertion that veterans often receive worse care than undo ented immigrants is demonstrably ridiculous, though that’s never stopped Trump before.
“Thousands of people are dying waiting in line to see a doctor. That is not going to happen anymore,” Trump told veterans gathered in front of the Lincoln Memorial as part of the annual Rolling Thunder event, which brings thousands of motorcyclists to Washington each Memorial Day weekend.
The presumptive Republican nominee was also apparently disappointed with the crowd size – organizers estimated about 5,000 people were in attendance – arguing that there were 600,000 people who wanted to hear his speech but weren’t allowed in.
Trump complained, “I thought this would be like Dr. Martin Luther King, where the people would be lined up from here all the way to the Washington monument, right? Unfortunately, they don’t allow ‘em to come in,” without explaining who “they” are or where these 600,000 people were hiding.

Trump Time Capsule #8: Illegal Immigrants Are Treated Better Than Veterans
This is not true, and no one who has thought about it for more than one second could imagine otherwise.
- A wide range of preferences and programs are designed to favor military veterans, as an incentive to ongoing recruitment and as recognition of past service. For instance: nearly 30% of the total federal workforce, and as many as half of new federal employees, are veterans. By definition, the proportion of known illegal immigrants in the federal workforce would approach zero.
- Well over a million veterans and their families have attended college with GI Bill-type benefits enacted since 9/11. For most scholarship or aid programs of any kind, proof of citizenship or legal residency is required.
- The VA hospital system has had numerous, serious, well-publicized problems. On the other hand it exists (unlike some notional Illegal Immigrants Hospital System), and before the recent scandals it was often studied and cited as a model of progressive medical practices. Many millions of veterans receive medical care through the VA. Illegal immigrants are not eligible for Medicaid, Medicare, treatment under Obamacare exchanges, or most private insurance coverage and generally rely on emergency rooms or cash-up-front treatment centers.
- Veterans can go to their congressional representatives or the press for redress of grievances. Illegal immigrants by definition have a very limited range of rights, and few ways to assert them.
I would go on, but it’s kind of an insult to public intelligence to treat this as a serious claim. (“Donald Trump said yesterday that two was a larger number than five. Let’s examine why this is not true….”)
It was a pure statement of grievance, fitting Trump’s skillful-but-dangerous pattern of expertly reading, and then pandering to, the audience in his immediate range and in position to cheer in response.

how did he imply that his supposed being hispanic or mexican made him less qualified? or less of a human being?
just because you mention an ethnicity that doesn't make you racist
Why did he mention the judge was Mexican, if not to slander him, and pander to you bigots?how did he imply that his supposed being hispanic or mexican made him less qualified? or less of a human being?
just because you mention an ethnicity that doesn't make you racist
you still haven't explained how it's racist
Wanna get technical? Mexicans are Native Americans, are racially East Asians, so are a different race (yellow).
Above all, Mexicans are not Americans, so Trash panders to white supremacist, bigoted nationalists.
how is calling a man mexican being racist? do you know what racist means?
if you are implying that calling somebody mexican is an insult, then maybe you're the racist one putting down the messicans

Euro-white supremacists and jingoist nationalists depend on treating The Other (like blacks, Mexicans, etc) as inferior human beings.
Euro-whites are superiors, non Euro-whites are inferiors.
aka, Euro-white (male) iden y politics is the Repug base: low-education, low-info, low-wage losers need to emphasize that others are below them, gotta have somebody to blame for the Euro-whites being losers, while the kids are shooting up heroin, addicted to opiods, etc, etc.
It seems that a lot of that demographic has realized such "superiority" bull isn't really helping them, takes them nowhere, so they are killing themselves in historical numbers with alcohol, guns, drugs, shocking the demographers with their declining longevity, the only such decline among all industrial countries.
btw, Trash won't help these Euro-white losers, either. He won't "bring back the jobs" or "deport all the illegals", or etc, etc, etc. It's a lies and con job, suckering the suckers.
And how did calling him Mexican imply that he was an inferior human being?
They have a little Mayate blood too
Boo, Mexico is clearly part of the Americas, you freaking racist.
CosmicParasite, "Americans" in USA refers to USA, not Canada, Mexico, or south of the border. Do Mexicans or Nicaraguans refer commonly to themselves as Americans?
Boo, Mexico is clearly part of the Americas, you freaking racist.
Trump’s veterans controversy goes from bad to worse
It no doubt seemed like a good idea at the time. In January, Donald Trump was in the middle of a spat with Fox News, so the Republican presidential hopeful boycotted a debate ahead of the Iowa caucuses, instead holding a fundraiser in the Hawkeye State for veterans. The GOP candidate boastedthat he’d raised $6 million for vets, and he’d contributed $1 million out of his own pocket.
The trouble, however, started two weeks ago, when the Washington Post started asking what happened to the money. The newspaper found that
Trump did not raise $6 million as he’d claimed,
and making matters worse, though his campaign said
Trump had already made a $1 million contribution, that turned out not to be true, either.
Yesterday, the presumptive Republican nominee held a press conference to set the record straight, though as the Washington Post reported, it didn’t go well.
Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he had given away all the money he had raised four months earlier for veterans – and at the same time bitterly attacked the news media for pressing him to explain what he had done with the money.
“Instead of being like, ‘Thank you very much, Mr. Trump,’ or ‘Trump did a good job,’ everyone’s saying, ‘Who got it, who got it, who got it?‘ “Trump said during a news conference here at Trump Tower. “And you make me look very bad. I have never received such bad publicity for doing such a good job.”
Yes, it appears that in Trump’s mind, journalists are supposed to thank Donald Trump when he thinks he’s done something worthwhile.
But even putting that aside, whether the Republican presidential hopeful realizes it or not, yesterday’s explanation for the controversy arguably made matters worse, not better.
The AP reported yesterday, for example, “Phone calls to all 41 of the groups by The Associated Press brought more than two-dozen responses Tuesday.
About half reported checks from Trump within the past week, typically dated May 24, the day The Washington Post published a story questioning whether he had distributed all of the money.”
In other words, four months after his big fundraiser, where Trump touted a tally that turned out to be untrue,
Trump only started cutting checks to a variety of groups after the Washington Post published a story that made the candidate look awful.
At another point yesterday, Trump insisted, “I didn’t want to have credit” for the charitable donations, except we know that’s not true, either: he obviously did want credit, which is why he held a televised fundraiser in which he boasted about his self-proclaimed leadership on raising money for veterans. There’s also the matter of Trump not actually deserving credit for the $1 million his campaign was caught fibbing about.
Adding insult to injury, Trump insisted yesterday, “When you send checks for hundreds of thousands of dollars to people and to companies and to groups that you’ve never heard of, charitable organizations, you have to vet it.” He even demanded tax materials from the organizations before they became eligible for the money.
Even if we put aside the irony of Trump demanding tax materials from groups while he insists on keeping his own tax returns hidden from the public,
and even if we overlook the fact that his operation doesn’t appear to have done an especially good job in vetting, there’s also the inconvenient fact that, according to the Trump campaign, the groups were chosen in advance in January – suggesting the vetting he had heard of the organizations and that they’d already been vetted.
So where does that leave us?
Trump said he’d raised $6 million for veterans, but that wasn’t true.
He later claimed he never used the $6 million figure, but that wasn’t true.
His campaign insisted Trump had contributed $1 million himself, but that wasn’t true.
Trump said he “didn’t want to have credit” for the fundraising efforts, but that wasn’t true.
He said he and his team were vetting groups they’d never heard of four months after the fact, but that wasn’t true.
And as of yesterday, all of this, the Republican candidate insisted, is the media’s fault. Indeed, Trump thinks journalists should be “ashamed” of themselves for scrutinizing his claims that turned out to be wrong.

One group Trump donated to benefits fundraisers, not veterans
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/05/31/one-group-trump-donated-to-benefits-fundraisers-not-veterans/
You Trash supporters.
Maddog has blown whatever credibility she had when she started. She has become a lying, distorting tool of the far left.
Asking for 401C paperwork clarification before donating money is as standard as it comes. It's not "asking for tax returns". Using the phrase "tax do ents" (Bookaki's black highlight) only fools idiots like Bookaki.
