Donald Trump's refusal to debate in Iowa is being diagnosed as just part of some radical-new-political strategy based on proving Trump can do whatever he wants without losing supporters. However, Barack Obama already proved this is possible in 2008.
Many Americans refused to believe their lying eyes when it came to Obama's alarming relationship with Jeremiah "God-Damn-America" Wright. In fact, Donald Trump's campaign spokeswoman, Katrina Pierson, is one of those Americans.
Today, Ms. Pierson is not Jeremiah Wright reincarnated, but she should definitely be more of an issue than Trump's decision to skip the debate in Iowa.
The Daily Caller reports that Ms. Pierson harbors a real animosity toward Christians, worships Malcolm X, and believes Republicans are racist. Shouldn't rational people question why Donald Trump would appoint someone with these views to be the chief spokeswoman for his campaign?
As reported, Ms. Pierson has a contempt for religion in general and she has mocked Christians in particular on numerous occasions. Her twitter account is loaded with her anti-Christian feelings. On one occasion, Pierson actually stated, "There are no such things as Christians. Just people who call themselves Christians."
With that in mind, does Pierson believe Donald Trump is someone who just calls himself a Christian? And if she does, would Mr. Trump consider that an insult?
While sneering at followers of Jesus, Pierson also boasts that she idolizes Malcolm X. Yea, Jeremiah "Love-the-Hell-Out-of-Rich-White-People" Wright was a big fan of Mr. X's, too.
Of course, the liberal media has no problem with Donald Trump's spokeswoman idolizing a notorious America-hating Muslim or her anti-Christian views. Liberals are only appalled that Pierson, who is half black, called for a "pure-breed" president in 2012. Who knew the liberals had a problem with black people using racial insults?
I mean, didn't Pierson's idol Malcolm X call all honkies "white devils"?
And didn't Barack Obama's racist reverend say he was sick "of negroes who just don't get it"? Furthermore, doesn't Wright now refer to Obama as our "Halfrican-American president"?
Why is it that the only problem liberals have with blacks using disparaging racial language is when Donald Trump is the Republican frontrunner and his half-black spokeswoman uses the phrase "pure bloods"? I just can't figure it out.
Meanwhile, the media is good to go with Pierson's contempt for Christians and her idolizing a racist Muslim who hated America. You know, because all of that is what patriotism is really about.
Having Ms. Pierson as the spokeswoman for Trump's campaign should raise legitimate questions about Mr. Trump's judgment, dependability, and loyalty. If Trump were president, what sort of Supreme Court justices would he appoint? What sort of people would fill his administration? Would they be individuals like Katrina Pierson who idolizes an America hater?
When Pierson landed her position as Trump's campaign spokeswoman, she said, "This is a nontraditional campaign. I can be a little bit more who I am. That's what I mean when I say it's like a perfect fit." Considering her opinion of Christians and her fawning over Malcolm X, I would say that is a fairly accurate statement.
Ms. Pierson's defenders have noted that she volunteered for Ted Cruz in the past and that Cruz has complimented her as "a fearless and principled conservative." Nevertheless, Ted Cruz never hired Ms. Pierson, and he certainly never considered making her the chief spokeswoman for his campaign. Even Donald Trump would have to concede that is a "Big difference."
Without question Ms. Pierson has every right to believe and say whatever she wants, and Donald Trump has every right to appoint whomever he wants to represent his campaign. But an anti-Christian bigot who idolizes a man who hated our country -- that's the person Trump believes should be representing his campaign to Make America Great Again? How motivating.
Trump joked over the weekend that "[he] could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and [he] wouldn't lose voters." What he should have said is that he could bring a spokeswoman -- who insults Christians, idolizes a man who hated America, and believes Republicans are racist -- to Iowa and not lose voters. But currently he's not bragging about that, at least not directly.
When you stop to think about it, maybe Obama has transformed America. In fact, it would be really interesting to know just how many of Trump's supporters voted for Obama in the past.
The best news for Donald Trump is that Jeremiah Wright wasn't even enough to derail Barack Obama. If Christian Republicans in Iowa are anything like Barack Obama voters, Trump has nothing to worry about.
On the other hand, can the same be said for America?
Hit piece! Donald is perfect!

Evidently Mr. Culpepper is another of those poor folks who have fallen and can’t get up.
Mr. Culpepper.
Here’s a question, and you can have ten chances to get the answer right.
Who is running for office?
Donald J. Trump
Katrina Pierson
Get back to me when you realize whose beliefs she is representing each day. You get added points if you can admit to me he is a Christian.
She agree to push his agenda.
He did not agree to push hers.
You do realize that right?
Uh, no he doesn’t...
Katrina Pearson sure didn’t get these hit pieces written about her by “conservatives” when she was still working for the Ted Cruz campaign!
Poor Donald can’t win for winning. How well is the lady actually representing Donald’s current policies? If she’s warping them to better fit her own prior personal politics, then she’s liable to get fired by Donald. If this is happening, let’s raise the issue. Otherwise this is between her and Donald.
One wonders, though, why a lefty would want to serve on a righty campaign. Is she just saying she will be anyone’s prostitute, so to speak? If she DOES cause mischief then we should be concerned wherever she is.
She’s an incredibly sharp spokeswoman.
The case the journalist makes for her being “anti-christian” is unconvincing to me here.
In any case she is a spokeswoman and is not the candidate in question.
Imagine the uproar if he made it public he wouldn’t hire atheists.
Imagine if he said he wouldn’t hire anyone who admired black cultural heroes.
Hey, I think Malcolm X was a bad character. I think it’s bad that she could like him. It’s just that there is this double standard applied to Trump. He’d be ripped to shreds no matter what choice he maid on these things.
What about this primary are you NOT on top of?
The desperation is palpable.
I suspect that Trump doesn’t mind some conservative criticism at this point. He gave us low-key assurances, and now he’s trying to unite low info patriots.
You Trumpbots are pathetic

What other history does the gal have. It sounds like she has traveled in varied circles. She might want little more than to be where the action is, whether it is lefty or righty. I had an aunt who was a journalist who was that way. She leaned left, but she would not refuse to meet with anyone of any party.
I take it she likes to work.
That’s probably as extensive as it gets.
Yeah....
Keep in mind that Katrina Pierson was pretty high up in Cruz’s senatorial campaign staff in 2012, and that he all-but-endorsed her in her run against Pete Sessions in 2014, granting her the coveted “utterly fearless” rhetorical award in the process.
Trumpbot central sounds a trumpet fanfare to salute your continued interest....
Yeah, sounds like Trump isn’t the only one who wanted to be flexible. Politics makes downright weird bedfellows.
