Trump to black columnist: 'You are the racist, not I'

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) —Donald Trump might be a presidential candidate mired in an ongoing national controversy, but he still makes time to offer feedback to newspaper columnists.

This time, the scribe who drew Trump's ire was the Washington Post's Jonathan Capehart, who called out the billionaire's "baldly racist xenophobia" in a column earlier this week.

In response, Trump sent Capehart, who is African American, a handwritten note: "Jonathan - You are the racist, not I," Trump wrote. "Get rid of your 'hate.'"

He will NEVER be ALLOWED to win, he will be destroyed and probably at the hands of the RINO ESTABLISHMENT, with FULL demoRAT support.

Neither party can afford to have an ‘OUTSIDER’ win, sanders is in the same boat, he can’t be allowed to beat Hillary.

He’s gonna run third party and Sarah Palin will be his running mate.

Whoa, that is one wild prediction.

I have no idea I you're correct but I do know the FR servers would crash faster then you could say "I need to make some popcorn!"

I’ll never vote for Trump, either. Unless he is the Republican candidate.

The only Repub that I am currently planning to sit out for is Jeb.

A lot of people will join up here who are in favor of Bush - volunteers, etc. We have that every time there’s a primary. And these volunteers are vicious. The Romney and Perrybots were crazy!

Capehart is a flaming gay, black, Republican hater.

“FOX will have managed by then a way to shut Trump out.”

Are you kidding me? This is ratings heaven for FOX. Can you imagine how many eyeballs will be watching that debate, just to see The Donald in action? FOX is thrilled! Trump is their Rock Star.

"Did I miss anyone?"

Yes Rand Paul has not condemned Trump either. Paul just refuses to comment when asked about Trump. Kinda disappointing, I thought Paul has more smarts then that, but still he has not condemned Trump.

"Great job on immigration. But we’d be wise to not to fawn over him too much until we know where he stands on lots of other issues."

There is only one issue this election an (illegal) immigration is that issue. Here is a conservation I had on another thread

I am reposting your comment since you are EXACTLY CORRECT and your comment needs to be repeated .... often

"If the left can get Amnesty for those 20+ million illegals they will have power forever. It wont matter who in the GOP runs it wont matter how bad the economy is or if we get attacked by ISIS, it wont matter because those 20 million + illegals are in the bag for the Democrat Party. Just as long as they are given free healthcare, food stamps, and welfare all the Democrat Party asks in return is for their vote which they will get"

On another thread I posted

"The USA like 1930's Germany is becoming a fascist state. A fascist state is one there big government and big business collude to acquire absolute power over the people. We are almost there and if Americans are no different then 1930's (keep you head down and don't rock the boat) Germans then we will become a fascist state."

"If the fascist big business/big media/big government can take down Trump there is little hope for our Republic. Like it or not the battle line is drawn, the only question is will we (the people) join the battle or like the 1930's Germans eat pop corn and enjoy the show."

The democrats must be crazed. Trump is exposing the destructive results of the Obama administration.

We have Trump and you don’t.

Without.a.doubt.

First they try to Alinsky him.

If that doesn't work--you know what happens.

One thing though, the longer they allow him to get away with (gasp!) speaking the truth--the more they are exposed and the more people see it. And the more the guy who does the same but isn't Donald Trump gets the idea, momentum, cajones, whatever it takes to grab that power that is ripe for the taking.

I am sure they have competing responses to all of it. Yes, they like to feature Trump, but they also like to carry water for the GOPe.

Simple things like “Bush lied, people died” which even the MSM have stated and used, is completely stupid considering that Congress, including Democrats, voted for and voiced the same concerns leading up to the vote for the use of force.


And Karl Rove, didn’t advise Bush to throw this back into their face with a simple press conference to point this out.

The Donald today in the same spot

Look, you guys... Congress believed what I did and supported me.

All you want to do is tear me down, how about them... I know you are too much of a coward to state that truth.

Next question
