That's the scary part...what he believes in.

Nothing wrong with calling judge a Mexican. It's only wrong because the media is biased against whites and republicans. Let's be honest.
I think you are wrong about that. I identify myself as American. Now, if someone ASKS me what my heritage is, I'll tell them.

But, I certainly do not identify myself as any type of European. Never met anyone who did, actually.

I was born here; I'm an American. Curiel was born here. He is an American.

He was not born in Mexico. He is not a Mexican.

The judge may be biased in the case Trump thinks... he's being bullied by the media. It's b.s.
Why do you keep saying this? over and over and over

It's like the jokes just write themselves.

I'd really love for him to double down on the whole "Mexican" judge thing. He'll soon out, along with his cult, just how much those "Mexicans" stick together.

Great campaign strategy telling someone from a culture KNOWN for hard work that they are not qualified for their job.
Yes, it's similar to TRUMP consulting with himself. Simply following the example set by The Leader.

Except you can't claim prejudice solely based upon ethnicity, gender, or political views. If you were allowed to do that we would have to hired a million more judges so a Buddhist Transsexual and a Polish atheist could be appointed a judge 'just like them'

Bias against white people is so bad in this country...that Mexican is not even a race. Yet if a white guy refers to a Mexican American, as Mexican.. you're racist. But when 50 minorities surround a white woman throwing bottles at her head, and eggs in her face.... Nobody cries racism or bias, or hardly covers it. But if 50 white Trump supporters did that to a black woman... It would be the end of the world.
What in the name of God are you even talking about?

Do you guys get it now or will it have to be repeated over and over?
Oh, did you forget that Trump, himself, called the judge 'A MEXICAN'?

He didn't say Mexican-American, he didn't say a judge with Mexican heritage.

No. Trump called the judge A MEXICAN.

Multiple times.

I guess you aren't familiar with the number of Americans who refer to themselves as Mexican or Mexican-American then? That's not the case where I live or those who identify as African-American? Many whites do the same thing.

On # 5, yeah, he called the judge Mexican, and said he couldn't be his judge because he was Mexican. But, not to worry, trump now says he doesn't care if the judge is Mexican or not. But, he still treated poor trump soooo unfairly, even though he gave him a continuance that trump wanted. Guess those danged Mexicans just can't win with trump - no wonder so few of them vote for him.
And, on #2, Trump practically forced the woman to put a bathing suit on. She was not there to participate in a pool party. He didn't just 'politely' ask the woman if she wanted a bathing suit.

Exactly. This is why they need to quit hiding under covert innuendo and coded phrases. Trump is your leader, and you should take his example. If you are a racist, shout it from the mountaintop. There is no longer a need for you to hide speaking in code. Of course, there will be ramifications, but let the consequences fall where they may. It is time to quit pretending and endlessly whining out excuses. This would be a public service. I would much rather know you are a bigot out of the gate than waste any of my time, money, or resources dealing with you. Stand up, and be proud.
