Did Newt Gingrich, Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell do their La Raza homework before calling Trump a bigot?
It appears they may not have. Or worse, they’ve done their homework, but chose not to factor in the nature of the organization named La Raza.
Jerome R. Corsi, in WND posted an article entitled “Judge, Law Firm Bringing Trump U Case Both Tied To La Raza.” It begins:
“The federal judge presiding over the Trump University class action lawsuit is a member of the San Diego La Raza Lawyers Association, a group that while not a branch of the National Council of La Raza, has ties to the controversial organization, which translates literally ‘The Race.’”From there, the case gets worse for Trump’s GOP critics:
U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel was “a member of the selection committee for the organization’s 2014 Annual Scholarship Fund Dinner & Gala {that featured President Obama as Key Note Speaker}. Meanwhile, the San-Diego based law firm representing the plaintiffs in the Trump University case, Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd, was listed as a sponsor of the event.” {As noted in a Corsi article linked below, that law firm made a major donation to the Clintons.}

In deciding to call Trump a bigot, albeit with typical, political, circuitous language, they illustrate what it is about the GOP that caused so many Republican primary voters to reject the multiple candidates they favored over Trump (eventually, all of them, even Cruz).

San Diego La Raza Lawyers = La Raza = Mecha = Aztlan
Make America Mexico Again.
Hasta la vista, Southwest.
I have no issue with Trump takin him to task about his associations but that isn’t what he did at the start. At the rally he first injected he was Mexican. First off he is a US citizen born in this country. Why he injected this to create this firestorm is beyond me but it is as it is. He should have just simply stuck with his associations and stated he didn’t feel he could get a fair trial and leave it at that....OR
not even made mention of it....who the hell cares!? The world is burning we have much larger fish to fry and I have to hear how he may be shorted in a lawsuit about his University? This is the most pressing matter of our time? Rise above it and go after target numero uno Hillary.
What has he done? Now put himself as the focal point instead of Hillary and her bad decision making.
Before anyone comes with oh its strategy blah blah he stuck his foot in it...save it
Democrats don’t see any problem with their octopus arms mixing other areas, like the law, with their religion: politics.
The problem for the rest of us is—neither does the GOP-e.
See: Lois Lerner, Koskinen, the IRS and selective targeting of conservatives ... absolutely nothing done except pro forma talk-talk. (Also see: Benghazi debacle and several dozen other issues: trade, infanticide, our `Swiss cheese’ southwestern border, profligate spending, etc., etc.)
This particular incident is an example of one of the reasons Trump is resonating with the public: A simple slip of the tongue threatens someone’s career, with the future of the country at stake....people are sick and TIRED of it.
“Did we give up when the Mexicans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!”
He’s finally saying something about the lefts’ sacred cows in our living room, and it’s not over until Trump says it’s over. He’s afflicting the comfortable and comforting the afflicted. Forget it. That’s the way he rolls.
So relax jarhead. One thing we all agree on (except maybe the few remaining nevertrumpers here): this is a critical election. It is imperative that we bar Clinton and the `rats from the White House.
Trump is going to beat Cankles like a baby seal. He knows what he’s doing. Go Trump. Give `em both barrels!
Impossible, because Donald Trump *IS* the *ONLY* GOP luminary.
Of course Republican officials know all about La Raza. Jeb Bush's entire campaign was centered around pandering to La Raza, and his brother spent much of his Presidency doing the same.
lol
They all got on that politically correct speech bandwagon... for several days. It was the major “news” story. How childish it sounded to start a “news” story with this. To see grown men and women talking about this for days, as if it’s important.
It goes on all the time.. to screen Supreme Court pics with what their prejudices are... to take a man, Clarence Thomas, and do to him what they did.. to make up lies to gain favor and ruin a man... you all on the left.. and you all who are still trying to be politically correct... it isn’t going to work any more.
the National Council of La Raza
*****************************
The National Council of The Race
We should always use the full English translation for clarity.
They named themselves The Race, make them own it.
They really, really want the media to like them.
Slowly the truth comes out in right-wing publications. But that is not where the truth needs to come out.
