What Happened When A Jewish Republican Confronted A Party Official About Trump’s Hateful Rhetoric
Source: Huffington Post Politics
Alex Beinstein learned about Donald Trump’s anti-Semitic tweet on Saturday morning. The 28-year-old Colorado Republican, fresh from an unsuccessful but high-profile primary challenge to a sitting congressman, did two things next. He withdrew his affiliation with the GOP. And he contacted the state party chairman, Steve House, who had been a mentor of sorts for the political newcomer.
House had made nice with Trump the day before. Though Trump supporters had sent the GOP official death threats earlier this year over a Colorado presidential nominating delegate selection process they saw as rigged, House said he and the party’s presumptive presidential nominee were beginning to work together.
Beinstein wanted to know how committed House was to that work. “If Trump jokes about lynching black people, are you also still going to support him?” Beinstein asked House. “This is barbarically and disgracefully nuts. Pathetic and horrendous.”
The interaction that followed, documented in an email exchange shared with The Huffington Post, provides a snapshot of how Trump’s bouts of bigotry place party officials and loyalists in a bind. Beinstein repeatedly mentioned loyalty to the Republican Party and his interpretation of its core principles, but he says there’s no denying that Trump is an unacceptable candidate. House did the strange dance that’s become de rigueur for the many prominent Republicans who say they’ll support Trump and then become forced to defend his excesses.

...of the Jewish people, even after discussing the poverty this father grew up in. Bet his family could have used some assistance...and just which party would have provided that and which would have said "Poor people are lazy and don't deserve any help!"? 
Most telling of all is that comment you quoted and bolded which essentially says that Trump's remarks about Mexicans and Muslims were "obnoxious" buffoonery, but anti-semitism isn't. That's a Republican for you. They'll excuse anything until it's personal. Obamacare is evil...until they find themselves in need of it. And insults to minorities are not that bad...until the insult is against them.
I got no patience for these types. The only good I see here is that it's one more vote that won't go to Trump. Won't go to Hillary either, but at least it won't go to Trump.
were being insulted? Oh but now it offends him personally. So it's time to get all self righteous. Fuck you Alex. You lie down with fascists. You're bound to get some trump on you. 
this violin is so small that it could fit in Il Douche's tiny tiny hands.
Sexist? Meh.
Hateful to "illegal" Mexicans? ZZZZ
Bigoted against all muslims? Yawn.
Wait... Trump insults MY special group? Oh, NOW I've had it!!!
