I know it when I see it - Trump called President Obama the N-word yesterday.

The intention was clear and his followers know exactly what he meant.


“Right now, we don’t have a good relationship,” Trump said of the U.S. and Russia. “Putin has said things over the last year that are really bad things, okay? He mentioned the N-word one time. I was shocked to hear him mention the N-word. You know what the N-word is, right? He mentioned it. I was shocked.”

“He has a total lack of respect for President Obama,” Trump said of Putin. “Number one, he doesn’t like him. And number two, he doesn’t respect him. I think he’s going to respect your president if I’m elected. And I hope he likes me.”

The Intercept

The media is focusing on Trump asking a foreign government to spy in the US but, to me, this was clear. Trump, if asked, will say he meant "nuclear".
