I dont feel that ANY candidate needs to stop and spend time on "no bodies", refusing their "endorsements" or support because doing so, gives them credibility.
You think Duke is worthy of the attention, I disagree.. I dont give a rats ass if he knew or didnt know who he was, he isnt worthy of 5 minutes of discussions or his own thread, let alone Trumps time to even discuss...
That's just it. So why not just out and out refuse the endorsement?
Where did this notion that candidates need to stop and spend time denouncing supporters that they made no special effort to receive, originate from?
I'm curious, do you expect every candidate to stop and get a list of everyone who's endorsed them, and then check off those who they approve of? What other candidates have you expected this from? Care to enlighten me on who the Democrats have "denounced"?
Not at all what anyone is saying, Trump was asked a specific question regarding a specific endorsement by the KKK and white supremacist groups.
What is he going to do when half the Republican Party walks out of the convention? He better get used to protests because he is going to get a summer of hell, everyone from actual conservatives to BLM is going to be gunning for him. He won't be able to utter a single world without protesters shouting him down.
The students, who were standing silently at the top of bleachers, were visibly upset as they were escorted out by Secret Service agents at Valdosta State University, The Des Moines Register reports. “They said, ‘This is Trump’s property; it’s a private event.’ But I paid my tuition to be here,” said Tahjila Davis, 19.
Why in the world would he have the black students removed? Why is this okay to Trump supporters?
The sight of the students, who were visibly upset, being led outside by law enforcement officials created a stir at a university that was a whites-only campus until 1963.
What were these students doing that warranted his throwing them out? They were standing there. That's it. Obviously he thinks throwing blacks out of his rallies will gain him more votes than losing them.
Perhaps.
He would not be the first or only politician to use race to win votes.
Back when, the Southern Strategy was employed by the Republican Party in the South to appeal to racism. It turned some blue states red. Everything old is new again?
On the other hand, it was a private event for Trump's supporters. Hecklers are routinely escorted out of political events. I was not there. I DK if those escorted out heckled or waved signage or in some other way, attempted to disrupt the event.
Were all black people at this event shown the door or just this group?
I do not care for any candidates, on either side, and have no horse in this race.
