    And nothing surprising either. He's a really weird and amazing form of Teflon Don.

    And, yes. I know there are many Trump supporters here. But if the shoe fits, you fucking wear it. Every. Single. One. Of. You.

    It's not being racist to be a Trump supporter, at least on the 100% blanket level you just threw on it. And for many, it is not about being a Trump supporter - it is very much about being extremely anti-HRC.

    His main policy positions stem from racism. It isn't possible to separate.

    I apologize for not dumbing my point down enough for you.

    Just to clear it up so even you can understand, I was saying that even if you don't think the original message was anti-Semitic, it is still makes Trump look bad because he posted something that would obviously be seen that way. That shows very poor judgement on his part.

    At some point the antidote has to be worse than the disease.

    There's gotta be a point of diminishing returns. I'm just wondering what that would be for some of you. What would he have to do or say where you'd be like-- ok that I can't abide.

    To be fair, you think all Republicans are racists, so I don't think this comes off quite as indignant as you hoped.

    If he said we have to bring blacks to heel, I think that might do it.

    At least you have your line.

    A six sided star also looks like a sheriff's badge.

    I'm not sure what the point of a Star of David would be. Hillary isn't Jewish.

    Trump's messaging is pro-Israel, and he's courting the pro-Israel Jewish vote.

    What's the underlying racist message here?

    This. Period. The End.
