Trump Supporter Pastor Burns, Cannot Explain Any Trump Policy – Video

The day after Donald Trump and a bunch of black pastors met, one of those pastors joined Morning Joe on MSNBC to talk about the meeting they had with Trump and the policies they discussed.

Host Mika Brzezinski began the interview by asking the pastor if Donald Trump has anything to do with the deplorable race relations in America. She asked him about Trump’s recent fight with a Federal Judge of Mexican descent, and asked the pastor if he thought Trump’s claims about the judge was racist.

The pastor apparently took offense to this question and he looked visible annoyed when he answered that he knows all about racism because he is “a black man from the deep south.” An answer that had nothing to do with Mika’s question about Trump, but… okay!

Then Rev. Al Sharpton took the banton from Mika, informing the pastor that, “we lose the moral imperative if we start saying that something that is green, is red.” Rev. Al went on to ask the pastor, “what is the policy” of Mr. Trump that will help blacks and other minorities if he becomes president?

For the next 11 minutes, the interview rambled on with other members of the panel asking for Trump’s policies, but getting nothing from Pastor Burns, an avid and outspoken Trump supporter.

Republican Con-man Donald Flip-Flops on Immigration – Video

If there was one policy you thought Donald Trump wiuld be consistent with, it was his stance on immigration.

When he announced his candidacy over a year ago, shipping immigrants back to their country was Trump’s number one talking point, and he rode that talking point all the way to his party’s nomination. He would balk at his supporters at rallies telling of his deport all immigrants plan and his supporters would happily applaud in anticipation of finally getting their country back.

But all things come to an end apparently and Trump has jumped off his gravy train choosing instead to flip-flop on his most sacred issue.

Clearly motivated by his sagging poll numbers in the general election, Trump tried to con voters his way during an interview with Fox’s Sean Hannity, by softening his immigration stance. The Republican businessman/politician told his followers that his plan to ship people out if the country was basically illegal, and that he would now “follow the laws” instead.

White House Slams Suggestion that Trump Made Obama Respond to Baton Rouge – Video

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney speaks during the daily press briefing in the Brady Press Briefing Room at the White House in Washington, DC, May 14, 2013. Jay Carney said the White House had nothing to do with the operation to comb the AP's phone records -- as part of an apparent case targeting national security leakers. "We are not involved in decisions made in connection with criminal investigations, as those matters are handled independently by the Justice Department," said Carney.

You know it was all political. Donald Trump’s visit to the flood areas of Baton Rouge last week had nothing to do with the truckload of supplies he brought, but everything to do with the upcoming election and the fact that the sitting president, Barack Obama, had not made a personal visit to the Louisiana.

Yes, the President has sent other members of his administration to inspect the damages and yes, Mr. Obama has made the necessary emergency declarations, thus clearing the way for federal funds to the state. It should also be noted that the decision to postpone the president’s visit to a later date was done by the local government. But Trump’s political stunt worked and the uninformed people began asking, where is Obama? Why isn’t he here?

That question even made its way into the White House briefing. Asked if President Obama decided to go to Baton Rouge because of Donald Trump, Jay Carney appeared flustered as he shut down the reporter and his dumb question.

Rudy Giuliani References “Online Videos” to Prove Hillary Clinton’s Sickness

Rudy Giuliani has said and done some stupid things in the past. And today was no exception. In an interview on Fox News, the former Republican mayor of New York offered his proof that Hillary Clinton is seriously ill, “go online” he said, “and take a look at the videos for yourself.”

“She doesn’t need to campaign,” the former New York City mayor, who has emerged as one of the Republican nominee’s most visible surrogates, said on “Fox News Sunday.” “She has the New York Times, she has the [New York] Daily News, she has ABC, she has CBS, she has NBC. She has an entire media empire that constantly demonizes Donald Trump and fails to point out that she hasn’t had a press conference in 300 days — 200 days, 100 days, I don’t know how long — and fails to point out several signs of illness by her.”

Fox News host Shannon Bream noted that the Clinton campaign has said “there’s nothing factual” to claims about her health.

“All you’ve got to do is go online,” Giuliani replied. “Go online and put down ‘Hillary Clinton illness’ and take a look at the videos for yourself.”

The irony of Giuliani, the mayor of New York City during the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, citing Internet videos to prove a conspiracy theory was not lost on some viewers.

The Clinton campaign has pushed back against conspiratorial claims about her health in recent days after fake medical records for the former secretary of state surfaced on right-wing websites.

“As Secretary Clinton’s longtime physician, I released a medical statement during the campaign indicating that she is in excellent health,” Lisa Bardack said in a statement released by the Clinton campaign on Thursday. “I have recently been made aware of allegedly ‘leaked’ medical documents regarding Secretary Clinton with my name on them. These documents are false, were not written by me and are not based on any medical facts. To reiterate what I said in my previous statement, Secretary Clinton is in excellent health and fit to serve as President of the United States.”

Trump Supporter Ejected from Trump Rally “because of his dark skin” – Video

Way to reach out to the minority voter guys. That’s how you do it!

An 18-year-old Charlotte college student who was ejected from Thursday’s Donald Trump rally says he went from avid backer to disillusioned opponent after Trump’s security accused him of being a known protester.

Jake Anantha, who registered as a Republican and planned to cast his first presidential vote for Trump, was wearing a Trump shirt when police removed him from the Charlotte Convention Center before the rally began. He and his father, Ramesh Anantha, say they believe he was profiled because of his dark skin.

“It’s unbelievably ironic,” said Ramesh Anantha, whose parents immigrated from India. He says his son, as a young person of color appearing at a rally where the Republican presidential nominee touted his support for people of color, “should have been looked at as a perfect Trump supporter. He should have been somebody they’re putting up on stage.”

Kirk Bell, communications director for Trump’s North Carolina campaign, said Friday morning he’s looking into the incident and will respond.

Trump Adviser – “I fired the Jews!”

These are the types of people advising Donald Trump… although… Trump had previously stated in an interviews that does not rely on advisers, he watches television for advise and advises himself… 

Joseph Schmitz, named as one of five advisers by the Trump campaign in March, is accused of bragging when he was Defense Department inspector general a decade ago that he pushed out Jewish employees.

The revelations feed two themes that his opponent Hillary Clinton has used to erode Trump’s credibility: That he is a foreign policy neophyte, and that his campaign, at times, has offended Jews and other minorities.

Schmitz, who is a lawyer in private practice in Washington, says the allegations against him are lies. All three people who have cited the remarks, including one who testified under oath about them, have pending employment grievances with the federal government.

Daniel Meyer, a senior official within the intelligence community, described Schmitz’s remarks in his complaint file.

“His summary of his tenure’s achievement reported as ‘…I fired the Jews,’ ” wrote Meyer, a former official in the Pentagon inspector general’s office whose grievance was obtained by McClatchy.

Meyer, who declined to comment about the matter, cited in his complaint another former top Pentagon official, John Crane, as the source and witness to the remarks. Crane worked with Schmitz, who served as inspector general between April 2002 and September 2005.

Trump’s Campaign Chair Resigns Amidst his Russian Ties

Remember a few days ago when Donald Trump stood on stage and swore up and down that all was well in his campaign? That the campaign is the happiest it’s ever been? Well that too, was a lie.

Just hours after Donald Trump shook up his campaign leadership, installing the leader of a conservative blog site to run his campaign operations, Paul Manafort – the man who was responsible for turning Trump from a primary candidate to a general election candidate – sent in his resignation. 

Trump issued a statement on Manafort’s resignation in which he said he was “very appreciative for his great work in helping us get to where we are today.” Trump in particular praised Manafort for getting Trump’s campaign through the “delegate and nomination process.”

Manafort, who saw his role as campaign boss diminished this week when Trump appointed Breitbart News boss Stephen Bannon as his new campaign CEO, has been taking fire after multiple reports have revealed his connections to a pro-Russian political party in Ukraine.

Earlier this week, a leaked memo revealed that Ukrainian authorities have accused Manafort of organizing protests against a NATO military exercise in Ukraine on behalf of the pro-Russian Party of Regions. One American soldier who was in Ukraine at the time revealed that protesters organized by Manafort threw rocks at NATO troops en route to the training exercise.

Former Bush Official – Hillary Clinton “would be a far better President” than Trump “could ever be”

Former Bush official and former U.S Treasurer, Rosario Martin, said on Wednesday that although she is a Republican and worked in a Republican White House under George Bush, she will not be voting for the Republican candidate in 2016, but will instead vote for Hillary Clinton.

“I have disagreed with and criticized Hillary Clinton’s positions, but I have come to the conclusion that she would be a far better president than the Republican candidate could ever be,” Rosario Marin said.

“She understands that words spoken from the White House have consequences, that sarcasm is not a strategy when dealing with delicate world situations, that our friends and foes listen to every word spoken by our president and react accordingly,” Marin added.

“There is too much at stake both domestically and abroad to have a thoughtless individual at the helm of the most important economy in the world. My party and its standard-bearer leave me no choice; on November 8, I will vote for Hillary Clinton.”

Marin, who is Hispanic, said she could not tolerate GOP nominee Donald Trump’s rhetoric on immigration and the Hispanics.

“I have come to the devastatingly painful realization that my party right now doesn’t want my vote nor that of my community,” she said. “Evidently it is not important, or not as important as some other voting bloc. So, for me to consider the unthinkable — to vote for a Democrat — has been a profound soul-searching process.

Donald Trump Admits – His Campaign is in Deep DoDo

In a rare show of humility by the boastful billionaire, Donald Trump is acknowledging his presidential campaign faces challenges and could ultimately fall short, Yahoo News reports.

The Republican presidential nominee is straying from his signature bravado as he campaigns in the battleground state of Florida, even telling a gathering of evangelical ministers Thursday he’s “having a tremendous problem in Utah.” The same day, the reality show star acknowledged his lack of political correctness could cost him the election if Americans reject his blunt approach.

“We’re having a problem,” Trump told the ministers, adding the next president could get to nominate up to five high-court justices. “It could cost us the Supreme Court.”

Trump’s campaign planned to sit down with RNC officials in Orlando on Friday. But both Republican Party officials and Trump’s campaign said the meeting was focused on Florida campaign operations, and not tensions between the campaign and the GOP. The officials weren’t authorized to comment publicly and requested anonymity.

After trouncing 16 challengers in the Republican primary, Trump is encountering worrying signs as his campaign moves into the general election. Democrat Hillary Clinton’s lead over Trump in national polls has widened in recent days, while a growing number of fellow Republicans have declared they won’t support their own party’s nominee.

Rudy Giuliani Somehow Forgot the Terrorist Attacks on September 11th

He was the sitting mayor of New York when terrorists boarded two planes and took down both towers at New York’s World Trade Centers. On that same day, terrorists also boarded a plane and attacked The Pentagon, totally demolishing one side of the building. Still on September 11, 2001, even more terrorists hijacked another plane that crashed in Pennsylvania, killing everyone on board. These four attacks killed almost 3,000 people on American soil, and injured another 6.000.

But Rudy Giuliani, the sitting New York Mayor at the time of those four attacks, has gone bonkers. He has apparently forgot what happened under his watch and under the Republican leadership of George W Bush. Giuliani, an avid supporter of Donald Trump, lied to an audience before introducing Trump at a speech on national security, telling them that there were no “successful” terrorist attacks in the eight years before Obama took office.

“Under those eight years, before Obama came along, we didn’t have any successful radical Islamic terrorist attack in the United States. They all started when Clinton and Obama got into office,” Giuliani said.

Again, almost 3,000 people died and another 6,000 were injured. If this is not the definition of “successful,” I don’t know what is.

Now I get the politics – cast the blame on Obama and hope your listeners can’t make the connection. But when you were the sitting mayor of a city that suffered the worst terrorist attack in its history, and when almost 3,000 people died under your watch, lying that there were no “successful” terrorist attack is extremely farfetched and absolutely delusional. Giuliani needs to go sit down somewhere.
