Ana Navarro: I believe Donald Trump is a racist

Ana Navarro, a prominent Republican activist who backed former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in the primaries, blasted Donald Trump as a racist on Monday, brushing aside reports of the Republican presidential nominee's outreach efforts over the weekend to Hispanic voters.

“I can very much look into the camera and say, ‘I believe Donald Trump is a racist.’ You don't get to make textbook racist remarks for a year and not be a racist. You don't get to make textbook sexist remarks for a year and not be a misogynist,” Navarro said on CNN, where she is a regular commentator.

Speaking with Jesus Marquez, a Las Vegas radio commentator who attended Trump's meeting with the National Hispanic Advisory Council for Trump, she downplayed any reports of him softening on immigration issues, noting that Trump “burned those bridges” with Hispanics “a long time ago.” “To me, he is a disgusting human being. I'm glad you guys are having an open conversation with him,” she said to Marquez. “I hope he takes your advice.”

Tiny hands has spent a year insulting every demographic except white men. There is no pivot that could put lipstick on this pig.

I like to read this - but isn't she just going to "I stand by denouncing him but I"m voting for Trump" spiel tomorrow?

They are all wimp.

To me - she's a wimp until she's not.

My only exposure to her has been her repeated appearances on Bill Maher's show. Never before did it seem to bother her much to stand with republicans over the interests of most Latinos. She positively is in love with Jeb Bush, however, she even was ribbed about "her Jeb" a few times and she didn't deny it. She was outraged at the way Trump humiliated Jeb and she turned on him instantly.

to actually say she will not vote for tiny hands. She really does hate him.

But yeah, there are too many others, like Collins and Ayotte, who are wimping out. They claim they don't stand with him, but they'll vote for him.
