Donald Trump Jr. cites 'gas chamber' in criticizing media - CNNPolitics.com

That was right after spilling the beans on the reason Dear Old Daddy hasn't released his tax returns.



Donald Trump Jr. just told everyone the real reason his dad isn’t releasing his tax returns

And of course that's on top of Donnie's own foot in his mouth regarding the pastor from Flint.

Bad day all around for the Trump family.
Only in what passes for the minds of Trump's "haters". (LOL, borrowed that term from the liberal left).

Yep, any and all references to any kind of "gas chamber" is now a de facto reference to the Holocaust, because as we all know, NO conception of gas chambers ever existed outside of the context of the Holocaust, right?...


And Trump says that pregnant women would be inconvenient to a business owner, which anyone with a friggin BRAIN knows is absolutely right. It would be an inconvenience to hire ANYONE who's going to have to take 3 months off for ANY reason.

Media's back at it again I guess. They've been able to just sit on their laurels for so long because the Trump controversies have practically written themselves up till now, but now that he's behaving, they have to start manufacturing them again.

Explanation doesn't work. He could have said electric chair and gotten his point across. He is dog whistling the deplorables including the KKK.

You people are so delusional it's hilarious. Are you telling me you actually believe he was secretly trying to channel anti-semitists with his gas chamber comment?

I don't believe anyone could be that delusional, not even a Leftist.

Dog-Whistle:


1.) "A term used by Liberals to assign racism to a speech or comment that no reasonable person would ever suspect of being racist. The racism in a dog-whistle is so subtle..... that no one can hear it "

2.) "A way to find racism where there isn't any"

Considering he has a history of re-tweeting comments from avowedly antisemitic sites, it's a pretty fair bet to say it was both a Holocaust reference and a dog whistle to that contingent among the Trump supporters.

You've seen this, haven't you?

Looksmas though the BS from these folks is pouring into the troughs for the consumption and regurgitation as desired by the masses.

Oz just read Trump's medical records aloud, live, on TV. Seems old Trump is fit as a fiddle.


you: /fail.
No, he didn't. You tried to change the subject from releasing tax returns and the kids having a bad day to Trump's medical records.

He has a history of retweeting these racists because he's too dumb to look at where the post originated, not because he's a racist himself. I truly believe that.


And for a politician to effectively use a "dog-whistle", they would have to be smart. They would have to be clever. They would have to be measured and calculated. Does anyone really believe that those qualities are an accurate description of Donald J. Trump? Or is it more likely he's just a bumbling fool who stumbles in to these things accidentally? I think you're giving him more credit than he deserves.


And how is mentioning a gas chamber, even if it is a reference to the holocaust, a dog-whistle to anti-semites? What, are the anti-semites out there going "oh, he mentioned gas chambers, he mentioned gas chambers, let's vote for'em!!!"...???????????

Doesn't even make sense.
