    I'd vote for Harry Reid for President if you could assure me I'd never hear (or read) the verb "unpack" used that way again ...

    We know Harry Reid is a liar. We know Harry Reid says Trump is a racist. Thus, we know that it's a lie to say Trump is racist.

    This certainly follows with most Democrat "logic."

    Sounds more like old_tony logic.

    Insulting Khan's wife for "not being allowed to speak" is racist.
    Saying an American-born judge of Mexican heritage can't be fair to him is racist.
    Not distancing himself from white supremacist groups is racist.
    Flaming the already debunked birther issue for five years against Obama is racist.

    Still bitter at that "Romney doesn't pay taxes" thing, are we?

    Totally not racist ...

    Next in the Trump record on race came a 1991 book by John O’Donnell, who had been president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City. O’Donnell quoted Trump saying,“ Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys wearing yarmulkes… Those are the only kind of people I want counting my money. Nobody else…Besides that, I tell you something else. I think that’s guy’s lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks.”

    O’Donnell’s report was shocking, but Trump did not contest it at the time. In 1997 he was interviewed for Playboy by author Mark Bowden and he confirmed that the O’Donnell book was “probably true.”

    Actually, that's rather low on his list of sins with me ... It's Top 25 material, to be sure, but definitely not playoff-worthy ...

    Do the networks have this on any kind of delay in case Trump says something obscene, or would they get a pass from the FCC?
