CNN this morning - Republican strategist Ana Navarro smacks down Trump and his supporter

[Justice]

This was really epic. She was incredible.

[Bluenorthwest]

1. Yeah, these Republicans who 'smack down' their own nominee who they will later support

are playing a certain sort of shill role. It's the 'I used to oppose him, then he listened to us and now I know he's going to be the best President' gambit.

To smack him down they have to endorse the Democrat instantly. There is no middle ground. Navarro is Trump until she makes herself not Trump.

[Democrats Ascendant]

2. To be fair, she was VERY much anti-Dumpster the whole time.

She called that anti-Latino hate out very early on. Her rage is so intense, in fact, that she may just flip to D - and she's a BIG-TIME GO-peer.

4. Not so surprising for a staunch Jeb! supporter

[Democrats Ascendant]

7. Yup, she made no apologies for that....

But she'll have to if she wants in to the cool club, which doesn't bash Latinos and peoples seeking equality and fair representation.

9. amen

3. Truly amazing. This scumbag Jeffery Lord is on CNN each day doing the "Bagdad Bob routine...

[underpants]

5. It's telling that they allow a Trump spokesman on so openly

He was known in political circles but for the masses they have to be saying "Who the hell is THIS GUY?"

[winstars]

11. I never heard of him before but he has been on since day 1 of Trump, spewing forth his delusions....

He has a great gig actually. He is on every day. He seems mostly to just SKYPE (phone?) it in most days.

Maybe he is that guy always in all the comment sections saying he make big $$$ working from home!!!

6. Lindsey Graham Really Stepping Up to the Plate on MSNBC Exclusive

quite frankly a 100% perfect, extended answer from a lifetime attorney. Plus he vows not to vote for Trump. Well done Sir. In South Carolina that might get you nomination for 2016 Profiles in Courage.

8. An interesting exchange...

Jeffery Lord is a character straight out of George Orwell's 1984...

Lies are Truth

War is Peace

Racism is anti-racism

The guy is so indoctrinated he can't think straight.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

10. Oh yeah? Where the fuck was she for the last few decades when these ass carrots

have been engaging in the most disgusting racial politics? Fuck her.

[hamsterjill]

12. She has been on fire of late.

Clearly, the Trump comments about the Hispanic judge have hit a very personal chord with her, as it should be. I've not been a fan of hers before, but I can respect passion and she is definitely passionate about this issue - as she should be. Jeffrey Lord is obviously a very well paid shill for Trump and as far as I am concerned adds nothing to the legitimate discussion. His points make no sense and have no relevance to the issue at hand. When asked a specific question, he recites the Trump talking points of the day that have been assigned for the Trump surrogates. Whether those talking points address the subject of the question asked does not matter. He simply keeps repeating his assigned talking point. Lord never answers a question directly, which is certainly nothing exceptional, because Trump himself never does.

That said, I have loving the divide in the Republican party. As has been stated before, Trump is the outgrowth of the last decade of Republican corruption, greed and lack of compassion. So I believe they are finally getting what they deserve.

13. What did she expect when she became a Repuke? Oh wait, she was 8 yrs old.

After one of her recent anti-racist rants she was similarly lauded here, but it plays to one of those Eternal Questions: Why would *any* minority member ever be a Repuke?

Oh, she tweeted that she became a Repuke at 8 yrs old RAYGUN blah blah. Goes to show that age 8 is not when life decisions are supposed to be made.

14. "Make America Hate Again."

Brilliant.

ETA: "Donny Come Lately."

She was great!
