Guardian: A Trump campaign chair in Ohio says there was 'no racism' before Obama

[kennetha]

Donald Trump’s campaign chair in a prominent Ohio county has claimed there was “no racism” during the 1960s and said black people who have not succeeded over the past half-century only have themselves to blame.

Kathy Miller, who is white and chair of the Republican nominee’s campaign in Mahoning County, made the remarks during a taped interview with the Guardian’s Anywhere but Washington series of election videos.

“If you’re black and you haven’t been successful in the last 50 years, it’s your own fault. You’ve had every opportunity, it was given to you,” she said.

“You’ve had the same schools everybody else went to. You had benefits to go to college that white kids didn’t have. You had all the advantages and didn’t take advantage of it. It’s not our fault, certainly.”

1. Women, it's our fault.

The rump, and his misguided followers are sinking below my yard stick for the lowest measure of misogynistic, racial, and religious tripe.

Well, just another reason to show up for early or at the polls voting for me.

2. Pay attention kids, Mr. Giuliani and Ms. Pierson are trying to teach Republican History 101

9/11 was caused by Obama and Clinton. They were the ones piloting the planes and used their time machine to warp out at the last second to create ISIS and plan their attack on Benghazi 11 years later. There were no Republicans in the equation really at all. Please do not bother confirming dates or anything regarding this matter.

What was that Jimmy...who killed Osama Bin Laden?

George Bush got bin Laden. Killed him with his bare hands. And then he landed on an aircraft carrier wearing a flight suit that totally didn't have socks stuffed in the codpiece to declare "mission accomplished".

Any other questions? Now let's move on to the German attack on Pearl Harbor. Which was also Obama and Clinton's fault.

3. Well, I will admit they hid it better before the Obama Presidency...
