Is Donald Trump The Most Racist GOP Candidate?

Just a week into his campaign, Donald Trump has already managed to alienate an entire demographic. At a speech last week, Trump told a crowd that Mexico is bringing drugs, crime, and rapists into the United States. Trump followed those comments by saying that he would build a great, great wall along the southern border of the U.S. to keep these so-called problems out of our country.

Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses Trump’s pitiful 2016 chances.

Insulting a key voter bloc? Not classy. Using a Neil Young song without permission? Not classy. Hiring people to make it look like you drew a crowd? Not classy. Yer just not a classy guy.

. . . certainly the man who took out a full page ad in ALL of the New York dailies calling for the executions of the 5 boys known as the "Central Park Five," who were arrested and railroaded into false convictions in the Central Park Jogger case is WAY up there!

this dirtbag in the White House?
It's hard to decide which would be worse, incompetent plutocratic tyranny or the humiliation of that awful comb over or toupee representing us around the world.
