But the man called out by Trump -- Gregory Cheadle, a Republican candidate in California's first congressional district -- didn't seem to mind the attention.
"I never, ever sensed any racism on his part," Cheadle told CBS News in a phone interview Saturday. "Looking at it now, I can see on a script -- in a transcript, or even somebody watching the clip -- I can see how they would jump to the conclusion that it was racist. But I never felt anything at all."

And a little more:
“”It’s a compliment to me,” said Cheadle, who briefly met Trump when the billionaire waded into the crowd after the event.
Their exchange, reported by the Redding Searchlight, happened after Cheadle had called out, “Uncle Donald, Uncle Donald.” Cheadle told the local news outlet that Trump “recognized me as the guy he had called out” and they chatted briefly about job creation.”
But but Racism...the media is a joke and a disgrace
He obviously meant to say “My African-American friend” and didn’t quite get it all out.
They are so grasping at straws.
Milo points this out regularly...their game is over. It’s exposed and we’re done with it.
Pepper spray the sh_t out of ‘em, if they go violent.
I just figured it was a joke. The lying MSM is grasping at straws. Is Trump still a Nazi because of his German ancestry? That would be bad news for about 40% of the US population, since they would ne Nazis, too.
Let's not forget Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, John Rockefeller, Andrew Mellon, Allen Dulles, Prescott Bush and many others who were Nazi sympathizers. Standard Oil, DuPont, Alcoa, and Dow Chemical were crucial in supplying the Nazi regime with the materials needed for war as well as financial support.
Interesting that CBS called him to begin with.
Let's not forget that the real Nazi sympathizers were those who supported the Nazi war effort. They were Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, John Rockefeller, Andrew Mellon, Allen Dulles, Prescott Bush and many others who were Nazi sympathizers. Standard Oil, DuPont, Alcoa, and Dow Chemical were crucial in supplying the Nazi regime with the materials needed for war as well as financial support.
Is Trump a pedophile and Muslim because he is a descendant of Muhammad? ;-)
40 percent!!!! wow. really?
Good!!How sad for the press.
It was an affectionate name...I have been ignoring most of the reporting but this accusation was too absurd not to notice.
It worked when they attacked Romney’s “Binder full of women”.
+1
Not going to work this time.
+Joe Kennedy
But it won’t work here and it’s not like that. That was nothing like this election. That was a choreographed garden party compared this historic election. They’ve attacked Trump 24/7 since 6/15/2015. Non stop from every direction. Nothing has worked for them and half of it backfired in their faces. So this wont either.
I guess they know how to cast their votes, then.
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana...plenty of Germans out there.
