if trump is racist would it not have came out years ago?
it is not like he is not known
read the ing article, it goes back 45 years, up to present. ducks is a Trash supporter
Team Trash eyes new super PAC – to target Republicans
sources close to Trump were saying Trump intends to “create and fund super-PACs specifically aimed at ending the political careers of Ted Cruz and John Kasich should either run for office again.” On “Meet the Press” yesterday, the Republican nominee confirmed those plans to NBC’s Chuck Todd.
“Look, what’s on my mind is beating Hillary Clinton. What’s on my mind is winning for the Republican Party. With that being said, yeah,
I’ll probably do a super PAC, you know, when they run against Kasich, for $10 million to $20 million, against Ted Cruz. And maybe one other person that I’m thinking about.”
Asked who the other Republican might be, Trump told the host, “I won’t tell you that.”
Ted Cruz and John Kasich are still Republicans in good standing, but they’re not comfortable with Trump – so the GOP nominee is plotting to end their careers.
As Business Insider’s Josh Barro put it,
“Not that we needed more evidence, but this is a demonstration that Trump acts out of pique and will pursue non-strategic vendettas. How might that work out when Trump feels disrespected by a foreign leader and has the ability to launch nuclear weapons?”
A week from now, it’s entirely possible Trump will pretend none of this happened, and when asked, he’ll deny ever having talked about this super PAC idea at all. He’s that kind of candidate.

Are you a Ted Cruz supporter? Is that why you're mad?
why did it not come out tell now?
I mean tv shows hired him for years
Mr. Trump is not a racist. How ridiculous. Just because you disagree with his politics that doesn't mean you have to go and call him a racist. It's so old, and quite frankly, it's sad, it's very sad... if you wanna know the truth.
He's a racist, going back 45 years. He's attracting racists, xenophobes, white nationalists because of his non-dog-whistled, BLATANT appeals to racism, stealing the dog-whistled hate of the party of racism.
Xenophobic? He ran the Miss Universe pageant for Christ's sake! With contestants from all around the world! Two of his three wives were foreigners! He has hired thousands of minorities!
Look, successful businessmen (especially salesmen) can't afford to be racist. They need all the prospective buyers they can get. Mr. Trump has been involved with hundreds of business dealings for decades and almost no one is coming out of the woodwork to say that he is a racist or ever acted racist. It's really a disgusting tactic to call him a racist and it's one of the many reasons I find myself distancing myself from the democratic party... because of people like you.
Trump campaign believes job numbers are ‘massaged’
Late last week, as Donald Trump made claims about the U.S. crime rate that were demonstrably untrue, many began to wonder why the campaign was presenting fiction as fact.
Paul Manafort, Trump’s campaign chairman, said the FBI’s data may show a steady decline in the crime rate, but Americans shouldn’t necessarily trust the FBI. Federal law enforcement, Manafort argued, is “suspect these days.”
Three days later, Don Trump Jr. appeared on CNN in his official capacity as a campaign surrogate, and Jake Tapper reminded him that not only has the crime rate improved, but “unemployment is much, much lower than when President Obama took office. Trump Jr. wasn’t impressed.
“These are artificial numbers, Jake. These are numbers that are massaged to make the existing economy look good and make the administration look good when in fact it’s a total disaster.”
It prompted the Huffington Post’s Sam Stein to note,
“So, to be clear, the Trump campaign trusts the National Enquirer but not the Bureau of Labor Statistics.”
When introducing Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R) as his running mate, Trump had one talking point he was especially proud of: “Indiana, their unemployment rate has fallen, when he was there, when he started, 8.4% when he was governor, when he took over, to less than 5% in May of 2016.”
what’s the source of those Indiana numbers with which Trump is so impressed? That would be the Bureau of Labor Statistics – the same government agency Trump Jr. accused of “massaging” data and releasing “artificial numbers.”

snowden ting bricks... if trump gets elected putin would send his ass over tbh
now you're starting to phrase like him.
You think?
If Trump gets elected, it could largely be attributed to some of the information Snowden helped make public.
if snowden and trump were on good terms, he wouldn't call him a cuck on twitter
Despite distaste for Clinton, Patel said many delegates are afraid of Trump's growing strength in the polls. "I've knocked on literally thousands of doors and made thousands of phone calls for Sanders -- Democrats' doors and phone calls -- and it's terrifying how many of them have said they will vote for Trump. These are Democrats -- and I live in a swing state."

Frankly, he can't possibly be in good terms with either... Shillary is basically Barry bis, Trump represents 'Murica...
TRUMP SAYS HE HEROICALLY AVOIDED CAPTURE IN VIETNAM BY STAYING IN U.S.
AMES, IOWA — Presidential candidate Donald Trump revealed a little-known episode of personal heroism from his youth on Saturday, telling an Iowa audience that he narrowly avoided capture in Vietnam by remaining in the United States for the duration of the war.
“The Cong were after me,” Trump said, visibly stirred by the memory. “And then, just in the nick of time, I got my deferment.”
The former reality-show star said he had never shared his record as a war hero before because “I don’t like to boast.”
He said that he only disclosed the episode now because “the way this nation treats our deferment veterans is a disgrace.”
Trump complained that he received no official commendation or medal for his heroism, calling the lack of recognition “shameful.”
“Those brave Americans who, like me, avoided being captured by not serving at all—we are the true heroes,” he said.
Trump’s tale of valor appeared to move many members of his audience, some of whom waited in line after his speech to thank him for his lack of service.

I don't necessarily think they're on good terms but Snowden's asylum doesn't present any tangible danger to a Trump Presidency. If anything, he's another liberal bogeyman for Trump to use to increase state surveillance.
The death of one party, the birth of another
Nicolle Wallace, a longtime GOP strategist, had a memorable exchange with NBC’s Chuck Todd.
WALLACE: [T]he Republican Party that I worked for for two decades died in this room tonight. We are now represented as a Party by a man who believes in protectionism, isolationism, and nativism. And those were the forces that George W. Bush, and I believe John McCain too, were most worried about during their times as the leaders of the Republican Party.
CHUCK TODD: Striking comment. You believe the party died tonight?
WALLACE: Well, the voters picked this guy. This is where the Republican Party is now. They now are attracted to those forces of isolationism and protectionism. But the party I was part of for two decades is dead.
Avik Roy, a Republican health care wonk with whom I’ve disagreed many, many times, has been deeply involved in GOP politics for many years.
He spoke to Vox yesterday about the state of his party and the degree to which, as Vox put it, Republicans are “driven by white nationalism rather than a true commitment to equality for all Americans.”New York’s Jon Chait made a related point last week, reflecting on the GOP convention, explaining Trump’s rise as part of the Republican Party’s transition from a conservative party into an explicitly ethno-nationalistic, “white-iden y-politics” party.
“I think the conservative movement is fundamentally broken,” Roy tells me. “Trump is not a random act. This election is not a random act.” […]
“Conservative intellectuals, and conservative politicians, have been in kind of a bubble,” Roy says. “We’ve had this view that the voters were with us on conservatism – philosophical, economic conservatism. In reality, the gravitational center of the Republican Party is white nationalism.”
Clare Malone recently argued something similar at FiveThirtyEight, explaining the degree to which the GOP’s small-government ethos has been completely replaced by the politics of “racial and cultural resentment.”
When Republicans talk about the death of their party, I think this is ultimately what they’re referring to. Sure, some of these trends and ideas have been part of the GOP’s diaspora for years, but what’s new – what marks the death of one party and the birth of another – is the way in which Republicans in 2016 have come to define themselves, not by principles of equal opportunity and the free market, but by the ethno-nationalistic tenets the party has traditionally tried to suppress.
Those efforts have failed. It’s a new Republican Party now.

The proof of any "death of the Repug mob" will be in November, how many Repug Congressional, state, local in bents are re-elected
My guess:
Trash will be crushed, the Repug/VRWC/1%/BigCorp establishment will resume total control, and the preferences of Trash's supporters will be ignored, as always for all voters.
