No he isn't lol. The majority of Americans don't care about a racially biased judge.
Yeah, but it is like 1 of 2,443 things that Mr. Trump has done that normal Americans would question.
Donald John Trump (2016): "I am often misunderstood. . . . despite quadrupling-down on exactly what I meant. The judge is stupid anyway, he clearly didn't understand that I love Hispanics and taco bowls from our cafeteria."
That's not a walk back, it's called an explanation for dummies. Only ignoramuses thought he said something else because they can't think for themselves.
Except, of course, he did say something else.
And he reiterated his bigotry by extending his doubt that someone of Mexican descent could give him a fair trial by extending that same doubt to Muslim Americans.

I agree with him on this for the most part so you are wasting your breath.
Speaker Ryan says he disavows Donald Trump's comments about judge: "Claiming a person can't do their job because of their race is sort of like the textbook definition of a racist comment ... It's absolutely unacceptable."
Well the Judge does have ties to La Raza and does have Mexican heritage.
Now that everyone is hearing about this and googling "La Raza", and finding out what they stand for, I'll bet Trumps support increases.
So now Trump is forcing people to get informed about La Raza. All this is going to do is increase his support, especially after the San Jose riots. "Maybe a wall is a good idea if these La Raza guys are cropping up..."
Look at it this way:
The Trump University case was a point of weakness that needed to be dealt with.
If you remember, Trump got hammered pretty hard over it in one of the debates and that was one of the few moments where he looked vulnerable.
He had to expect Clinton's team to salivate at the video of that and then make plans to come hard at him from that angle.
So he made an aggressive defensive move by attacking the impartiality of the judge.
I think the Trump team is just circling the wagons and waiting out the fallout from the aggression of this maneuver.
It was a pretty ballsy move to attack the judge's ties to Mexican groups and even some of Trump's most ardent supporters got upset about it (e.g. Newt Gingrich).
But it was a good risk to take because now whenever Hitlery tries to bring up Trump University, everyone will think, "Yeah, but that ****ing racist Trump DOES have a point... that judge IS biased and probably would have been disqualified as a juror if Trump's lawyer made an objection on the same grounds."
It was a risky move and it brought some heat on Trump, even from his friends, but in the long game of the general election, it actually will turn out to be genius.
But all you Anti-Trumpers, go ahead and have your fun now.
