The fatal shootings this week at a historic black church in South Carolina has sparked a feud between the presidential campaigns of Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton.
Clinton suggested Thursday that Trump’s comments about Mexicans, during his campaign announcement speech three days earlier, could incite racial hatred like that which led to white male Dylann Roof on Wednesday evening allegedly killing nine black people attending a bible study inside the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, in Charleston, S.C.
“The people who do this kind of dastardly, horrible act are a very small percentage,” Clinton said in Nevada on the “Ralston Live” radio show. “But unfortunately public discourse is sometimes hotter and more negative than it should be, which can, in my opinion, trigger people who is less than stable to do something like this.”
A recent entry into the Republican presidential campaign said some very inflammatory things about Mexicans. Everybody should stand up and say that’s not acceptable…

Trump responded on social media to Clinton’s apparent criticism of him.
“Wow it’s pretty pathetic that Hillary Clinton just blamed me for the horrendous attack that took place in South Carolina,” he said on Instagram. “This is why politicians are just no good. Our country is in trouble.”(continued)

You just described Hillary, too.
I wouldn't pee on him if he were on fire and in the unlikely event that he actually files to run I will spend much of the time between now and the primaries diagramming some of his nasty real estate deals for people who have no clue as to what he has been doing.

If they want to talk about dangerous discourse, then end white shaming on America’s college campuses.
And quit giving credible air time to antisemitic race hustlers like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Louis Farahkahn (they are atwitter today with the 20th anniversary of the million man MMM march).
“Donald Trump is about Donald Trump. You are talking about a rich guy who wants the spotlight, and doesn’t want to ever go out of the spotlight. He wants the attention, and he will do whatever it takes, no matter how rediculous, to keep getting some attention.”
What has he ever done that was so ridiculous? Isn’t it necessary for a candidate, who runs for office, to draw attention to himself? Do we want a shrinking violet to be president? Can a man who inherits a few million dollars and turns it into nine billion dollars and has been courted by the movers and shakers for decades be accounted as someone who ONLY wants attention? As General George Patton advised:
“Do your damnedest in an ostentatious manner all the time.”
He would only help Hillary by running as a conservative independent. He is running for the Republican nomination, and fortunately he will influence the Republican nominee to move right, not left.
Trump helps Hillary! by sounding shrill and foolish and shooting his mouth off. He’s no conservative. He wanted Oprah Winfrey for his VP nomination. The guys a Democrat from a Democrat city in a Democrat state. He’s made big money off of big government. Don’t fall for him.
See what Perot did to the country. Had he not run, we wouldn’t be worrying about Hillary!
“See what Perot did to the country.”
Trump is running for the Republican nomination. Perot ran as an independent and split the right-of-center vote.
If Trump runs as an independent I agree, it would be Perot 2.0.
Trump may be a circus announcer, but I think there is no longer a need to pretend national politics are anything but a circus anyway.
He is bringing up some conservative issues that will force them into the open to be addressed by other nominees.
I had a hard-core Democrat tell me he would watch the Republican debates if Trump is in them. This tells me that arguments for conservatism will be heard and that is what this nation needs in the political realm. Right now the people hear sound bites filtered by a Marxist loving media.
Trump is not going to hurt conservatives unless he runs independent to give us Clinton 2.0.
