The White House lashed out at congressional Republicans as a party of racists Thursday, calling the GOP defenders of the Confederate flag and silent partners to Donald Trump’s Mexican-bashing rhetoric.
White House press secretary Josh Earnest opened his daily press briefing with an unsolicited broadside on Republicans, saying they are “out of step” with Americans’ values on race relations and immigration.
He blasted GOP lawmakers as “eager to protect the status of the Confederate flag on National Park Service grounds” and reminded the public that the third-ranking House Republican, Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana, was once described as “David Duke without the baggage.” Mr. Duke is a former leader of the Ku Klux Klan.
The White House spokesman also seemingly went out of his way to link the flag issue with Mr. Trump, a leading GOP presidential candidate who is under fire for characterizing many Mexican immigrants as rapists and drug runners.
“These are the same congressional Republicans who have declined to criticize the race-baiting rhetoric of a leading Republican presidential candidate,” Mr. Earnest said, without mentioning Mr. Trump by name. “That’s to say nothing of the Senate Republican [Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas] who saluted that candidate.”(continued)

Beg to differ.
I believe the "Washington Cartel" -- your Media-Crony Capitalist-Political Complex -- has lost control of this one. And they're not going to get it back.
Trump, I believe, is just the beginning of their problems.

These totalitarians are tone deaf to anything anyone says. They will tell you what they think you said and hell’s bells if what they say is the truth.
The GOP ticket in 2016 will be Bush/Fiorina.
The Dem ticket will be Clinton/Castro.
To be determined -
1). Will Trump run as an independent?
2). Will there actually be an election?
“The White House lashed out at congressional Republicans”. etc. etc.
*sigh* “Journalism” like this just pisses me off.
The f*cking “White House” is a building and cannot SPEAK.
Please pardon my French.
Love,
