One has to wonder why the Russians love Trump so much to spend resources trying to hack the DNC

Well, to be honest, most people who are eating Mexican food on Cinco de Mayo are doing so privately in a restaurant with family or friends.

They are not sitting in front of a camera with an idiotic grin on their face eating while claiming "The best taco bowls are made in Trump Tower Grill. I love Hispanics!"

I don't get the that leftists-ethnocentrists reference, either. E.g., ethnocentrists are white national supremacist types, so they would be the opposite of leftists.

Not getting your logic. Ethnocentrists "judge other cultures solely by the values and standards of one's own culture."

Assange and Manafort both have strong Russian connections, Trump has financial ties to Russia, Russia has a vested interest in a weak NATO and a weak EU. It's not hard to put the puzzle pieces together.

And now there's evidence to suggest the leaked documents have Russian cyber fingerprints. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/25/us...86BA13&gwt=pay "metadata from the released emails suggests that the documents passed through Russian computers"

A taco bowl is gringo food, not Mexican food.

He does a lot of business with the Russians. Here's a bunch of facts for you:

Trump & Putin. Yes, It's Really a Thing

This explains why Trump doesn't feel NATO should defend countries Russia would like to invade.

I always believed the groups, in this case the democrats, that appear to play the race card left and right/calling other people racists are often the most racist themselves.

I think we have exhibit A here.
By the way, WikiLeaks deleted the tweets regarding this e-mail once they figured out that it was about Trump.....

Uh: la raza is Indian mix "Hispanic" ethnocentric. So is New Black Panthers if talking about the Black version of the KKK. If talking "my" people the Irish; I DON'T like the IRA back when they were terrorists. ALL of those groups are troublemakers and need to be put in their place, prison if needed.

I for one have no problem if Trump sides with Russia since Russia stood alone against ISIS and Turkey while ISIS was secretly moving their oil without which they couldn't function through Turkey. Turkey and the Obama administration are huge hypocrites for allowing this. Ever wonder why Obama refused to bomb their oil fields? I'll take Putin over ISIS, thank you! Hillary can pander Turkey since it benefits her catering to Islamic states, which Turkey is without a doubt well on it's way to becoming.
