Joe Scarborough just went off on Donald Trump’s ‘racism’
washingtompost.com ^ | 6/6/16 | By Callum Borchers

Joe Scarborough is done with Donald Trump.

After months of amiable interviews and a report that their "friendship" was making NBC executives uncomfortable, the host and the presidential candidate have recently been bickering on Twitter. And now the feud has ratcheted up another level, with Scarborough on Monday ripping Trump's "racist statement" that a federal judge of Mexican descent is inherently biased against him.

Scarborough, a former Republican congressman from Florida, has criticized Trump before. He has said he could never vote for the presumptive GOP nominee, so long as Trump refuses to back off his proposal to temporarily ban all foreign Muslims from entering the United States. He also has called Trump's delayed disavowal of support from white supremacists "disqualifying."

Haha!

"Hispanic" is not a race. It would be fun, though, to watch the race-hustler's Just-us Department try to define how Central and South American nations with Spanish-cutural traditions are defined as among the "Hispanic" race, while actual Spaniards who exported those same cultural traditions are to be considered in the Caucasian race.

Look Folks....get with it!!! CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS.......and maybe, Fox News Channel (Megyn Kelly) are all in the tank for Hillary Clinton....100%!!! However....their viewship keeps dropping with each passing year. You also must realize, that the Mitt Romney’s, Paul Ryan’s, John McCain’s, Mitch McConnell’s, etc., of this world, are all whimps that cave in, run & hide, anytime they get challenged. The Judge on this “Trump” trial is all in for “La Raza” and their protection of Illegal immigrant, criminals, drug dealers and border runners, rioters that destroy peole and property!!!

And Hillary Clinton & Barack Obama are right in there with them!!! Now...if you all are happy with this farce....”TRUMP is not”, then you go right ahead and cast your vote for Hillary Clinton, and you soon will singing “The Star Spangled Banner” of Venezuela, I can assure you, you will not be eating to well, either!!! Have fun!!!

The pundits just can’t stop telling us how smart they are. They are the experts on everything from soup to nuts. They will never stop talking, giving their worthless advice to Trump, advice he has never asked for and doesn’t give a damn about. The media are losers, sitting in the dugout, criticizing the home run record holder for missing a fast ball that none of them could have hit either. How did Trump get where he is if he hasn’t done it his way, which is the way he will keep doing it. I detest pundits who believe they are so politically astute, yet all have been dead wrong this time around.

So, another one falls on his sword rather than support Trump.

Too bad the house cleaning isn’t permanent. They will be back. They always return. Like zombies, risen from the dead.

FoxNews even resorted to dropping the {hypenated}-American to provide cover to the judge by claiming the judge was of Hispanic parents but was born in America.

I really believe this is the end of the Morning Joe Trump interviews.

Be careful Joe or Trump will start talking about why you really left Congress so abruptly. And it won’t be pretty but it will be just as true as citing the judge’s La Raza connection.

Well stated.

We can’t imply that Curiel may be prejudiced against Trump because of his connections to La Raza and that he is first generation Mexican.

So tell me again why we should be concerned about who should be on the Suprreme Court? Or why did Sotomajor make a point of being a “wise Latina?” Our judicial system is highly politicized, which is why both parties make the point quite publicly that the ability to appoint judges to the courts at all levels is crucial to furthering their agenda.

Again, Trump has not been PC, stating some obvious facts about our judicial system. It is the reason why DOJ will not prosecute Hillary even if the FBI makes a recommendation to do so.

Let him vote for Hillary!

He’s made up his mind.

Of course that’s the media MO, and thus it will be interesting to see if Trump uses his Trump card and finally gives the background of the judge thus justifying his criticism.

I tend to think Trump will not shy away from an opportunity to defend himself fully. But we will see.

This will also be an interesting test to see who, or what, is more powerful: Trump’s defense of himself or the media (negative) spin that usually accompanies the Republican nominee.

Because we know more of this crap is coming, to usher in the weakest candidate of them all: Hillary Clinton. The media is in full court press for her. This will be thus interesting to see how effective the media is in shilling for the Democrat this time around.

La Raza and MECHA do not recognize US international borders. MECHA is a La Raza sub-group.

We all knew this was coming we just didn’t know the specifics. We all knew though that cries of “racism” and or “gender inequality” would be fitting the shan when it came to a Trump (or any Republican) candidacy.

So NOW we will see who is the bigger dog. Who has the most bark and bite. The media shill machine or Trump.

It will thus be either a long and grueling summer as the media continues its usual successful approach or it will be a summer to remember as the time when a Republican finally fought back against the bias in the media, and won.

It’s decided here.

If that were the case, it would be the end of Morning Joe.

This is all a game, like Trump and Vince McMahon...but played for politics.

He’s been pretending to be a republican for a long, long time. AND don’t forget, a dead woman was found in his office, while he was a Congressman.

Sometime in the 1940s Texas government voted to allow Hispanics to attend public school, not as ??? but as Caucasians, which they have been for quite a few centuries.

Mika has said she’s voting for Hillary. She does appear to be friendly with Trump though.

Is this the same Joe Scarborough who didn’t give a damn about Trump supporters being beat up? Under the watchful eye of Bull Conner?

Eff ‘em...

For decades, the Left has been saying that virtually all whites - consciously or not - are racially prejudiced. This is dogma. Now, Trump is under fire for saying the same thing about ONE judge.
