Drumpf Goes Wild, Makes Racist Remark About Obama

http://www.addictinginfo.org/2016/03/05/trump-goes-wild-makes-racist-remark-about-obama-video/

Flustered by a series of protesters, including one just a few feet away from him that the candidate decided to stand up and single out by pointing, Trump told his audience, “we have a terrible president who happens to be African-American.”...

Trump went on to promise his diehard supporters that “we have a divided country folks,” and that “there has never been a greater division” that exists in America today. Trump also claimed he was upset about “the hatred, the animosity” in the country, and promised, “I will bring people together.”...

The White Power/White Nationalist movement has expressed a high level of support for Trump, especially due to his promise to build a “beautiful wall” on the U.S. – Mexico border. Other white nationalists have said that Trump is their preferred candidate, and in return the campaign has given press credentials for white power radio shows to broadcast from his campaign rallies. His son, Donald Trump Jr., even gave an interview to a radio show alongside a white nationalist who favors a return to slavery....

It has also become a problem for so-called “establishment” Republicans, who fear that a candidate so directly connected to the movement will spell disaster for them in the fall election. They dislike that Trump has said in public what has often been said behind closed doors with hushed tones.

....people standing in line to kiss his ass. Even celebrities. He won't be the nominee and when it's all over for him he will be at a completely different place than when he started this race. The racism, building a wall, etc...will have lost him a lot of friends. He'll be the butt of all jokes. It will be very entertaining to see the fall of the Trump.

near the White House without a visitor's pass.
But his words in your post are not racist. Stupid? Fuck yes! He makes enough truly racist statements that no embellishment is required.

Because I Donald Trump am a smart guy. I'm a nice guy, I have the best words. And I have a gigantic penis. Yeah I know that's not kosher to talk about, but in this day and age we're going to elect a president who has had a dick pick posted online. It may as well be a guy like me who is very successful and very rich. The beauty of me is that I am very rich.

Absolutely! A brokered Dem convention will indeed select Anthony Weiner, who will cruise to victory in November!

I missed the racist remark.

Is it racist now to say African American?

Or was the word "terrible" some kind of dog whistle?
