Trump used the N word prior to being in office, but because he has never used the N word while in his office (though some have said he has) that clears him of being a bigot and a Racist? I did not know there was a statue of limitations on using the N-word in the past, because he might have, maybe, changed...

You only have to ask them one question. What was the cause of the Civil War? They will never admit it was solely based on the supremacy of whites and their insistence on the inferiority of Black people. This is the principle stated in their constitution and secession from the Union.

fans it in this case. I want every single GOP politician to get in front of a camera and spout spin over this. It'll only help on Nov 6.

Cheetolini needs to get at the very least the Paula Deen treatment. Lose his job and millions in lost business.

Certainly the RW pundits and this dolt have never worked so hard, sweat on brows to backpedal, apologize, spin, re-frame, re-define and make more pitiful attempts to smear lipstick on the Trump-Piggedy, even with all the practice they got at it with GWB and Ray Gun.
