Democratic leaders nationwide sought to exact a political price from Republican officials and candidates on Monday for continuing to support Donald J. Trump after his explosive remarks challenging the objectivity of judges with Mexican or Muslim backgrounds.

In an unusually coordinated series of attacks leveled from congressional offices and the Senate floor, in state capitols and sidewalk protests, Democrats excoriated Mr. Trump as racist and demanded that Republicans either stand behind his comments or condemn him and even rescind their endorsements of his candidacy.

It’s time to point out the obvious: La Raza and similar organizations are no different and no better than the KKK.

And Judge Curiel is very cozy with them.

The NYT sleaze rag is desperate to find even the tiniest sliver of an issue with which to flog Trump. He batters the PC crowd into sniveling, blithering idiocy every time he opens his mouth. Libs have no ammunition, none.

By using it, they will force Republicans to either join Trump’s war on Political Correctness or side with the Liberals.

Just more lies from the Slimes.

Neither Trump not I have any problem with people of Mexican descent. We do have a problem with racists who are or were literally avowed members of a group that translates as “The Race.”

Pretty sure that’s also true for the vast majority of Trump supporters.

GTH Slimes.

In the last few weeks, the US Supreme Court ruled in a Georgia case that it was unconstitutional for an all white jury to sentence a black man to death. The case comes from Rome, GA. If that is the case, if the court believes color of skin does matter, why doesn’t Trump’s folks cite that case as their benchmark? Of course, it is ok when its a lunatic leftists being helped by the color of your skin, not so much when its a white person.

It means that Trump has allowed this to go too far without a firm response, probably on the advice of his handlers trying to make him more “presidential.”

99% of the public don’t know what the judge represents. They don’t care about the fact of the case against Trump University. They would care about the judge’s solid ties with racist organizations. They would care that his main affiliation has vowed to hurt Trump financially. But Trump has said nothing.

I fear that Trump is being converted into a Republican eunuch.

As per the 14th Amendment, Judge Curiel is not even an American citizen.

By dint of his racist associations, any ruling of his against a white person is a possible hate crime.

The judge belong to The Race Lawyers Association which has ties to The National Council of The Race.

Don’t use the Spanish version of their name, they chose it, make them own it.

The Race, not La Raza.

The racists are in the groups named The Race.

Good point, call it “The Race” and the point will be made clearer.
