    Donald Trump is HUGE on neo Nazi sites. I'm not saying that he is a neo Nazi but a lot of the crap he spouts is what they love. I don't think Donald Trump is a racist but if you go the bed with dogs you wake up with flees.

    And yet my Mother and Grandmother still support him even after I told them about this.
    They said they don't believe it and think people are just trying to smear him. :icon_roll

    I wouldn't be surprised if he had a secret shrine to Hitler in his closet and a swastika tattooed on his ass, the only surprising thing would be letting everybody know because that could mean bad publicity, even from his messed up supporters.

    100% expected. And how is wanting to "build a wall" to keep Mexicans out because "they are rapists and terrorists" not racist? And what about all his Islamophobic bullshit about "banning Muslims"? Or that one time he said he would personally beat up any "Black Lives Matter" protesters who attended his rallies?

    No, no, he spelt Trump wrong :icon_wink

    Looked up Trump's twitter upon seeing the thread, and checked the tweet. People do their best to smear him, even when the tweet has nothing to do with neo-nazism.

    ''Poor Jeb. I could've sworn I saw him outside Trump Tower the other day!''

    Apart from the fact that Trump might not have known the person was a Neo-Nazi at the time he re-tweeted, even if he did, he's only re-tweeting comments which support his campaign, or which ridicule Jeb Bush, Cruz, the Clintons and Bernie. He's not accepting the other guy's personal views regarding Nazism in doing so.

    A.k.a the media is really getting desperate.

    I think this is a ridiculous distraction; he didn't retweet an actual fascist statement; only a silly joke at Bush's expense.

    Trump himself provides more than enough content for substantive criticism. Almost everything he says and every claim he makes can be addressed pretty easily, though apparently that has no impact on his polling.

    Technically the Mexican stuff isn't racist. He never said "Mexicans are rapists" he was saying that the Mexican government is sending over criminals. Which is a valid concern considering the amount of people that get over here illegally.

    He said that a vast majority of the immigrants that come from Mexico are bringing drugs and are rapists, which goes against all data collected from first generation immigrants to the United States that have a lower crime rate than native born citizens. We could debate all day long about whether or not that quote is itself racist, but it's clear that he is pandering to the racists within the GOP with comments like this. Also, Mexico as a country can't send any immigrants to the US, and that claim has been rated "pants on fire" false by politifact. And in the case of Mexico, net immigration to the US is below zero, which means more Mexican immigrants leave the US to Mexico than enter it.

    ^He probably wasn't paying attention to the person he retweeted, just the joke itself.
