    The look on his face was priceless. Internet had fun with that.

    Or as Barns said, Christie. Those are my 2 best guesses. A lot of the articles I've read say Carson though.

    If Carson is his vice that honestly gives him a ton more gravitas in my book. Basically he goes from "less than zero" to "some" which is a massive leap.

    I like Carson and I like his ideas, he was just incredibly boring as a candidate for President and did not have a strong enough screen presence to compete on that stage.

    He's still a very intelligent man and one that I'd be proud to have representing us.

    This guy cannot become president, he can't. He's unhinged, he's psycho, he'll divide the country, he'll start world war 3, if he's up for election I'm voting for the other guy, even if it's Hilary.

    Hillary is basically a neocon posing as a democrat. She's just as likely to start WWIII as any Republican.

    @Weezy your response is exactly what I fear happening...

    The reality is Clinton is every bit as bad for this country as Trump is, but that's not the narrative being sown by main stream media... Sad.

    NOPE!

    I haven't seen one thing that tells me Trump is racist. Wanting a wall is not racist. Enforcing the laws (same laws every other country has) is not racist. Wanting to ban Muslims from entering until they're vetted is not racist (note: Carter who won a Noble Peace Prize did this same thing).

    Are some in his base racist? Of course. Just like some of Clinton's, Obamas, and every other politicians.

    I don't think the BLM girl was there to listen to his ideas. They didn't want the nonsense, but got it anyway. She served her purpose to the left.

    Spreading fear. That's what the Left is doing. I'm honestly shocked they still use the racist tag. I know I'm tired of it.

    Having said that, I'm not in favor of Trump, but it's not for any of the nonsense Newsome or BLM claims.

    I may philosophically disagree with Bernie on some stuff, but he's got a vision that I can at least respect. I can not respect either Trump or Clinton. Unfortunately Trump is going to win this nomination and Clinton is going to finagle her way into the Democratic nomination somehow WITHOUT massive controversy despite the shady things she's done even in the last few years. Just insane!

    I wonder if Bernie could find a way to get on the ballot as a 3rd party what would happen...

    I'd vote for Bernie before Hillary or Trump, but he'd fail Economics. By all accounts, he walks the walk and will end a lot of the corruption in Washington. I love that he didn't vote for the Patriot Act.

    My real fear with him is the economy. Socialism doesn't work. You can't tax a nation into prosperity. He doesn't know the definition of "free."

    What happens if Hillary gets the nomination and then goes to jail?

    She'll get sworn in to office in a nifty orange jumpsuit.

    I can't agree with that. If she didn't do anything, why can't she be at a Trump rally whether she is with BLM or not?

    There's another video of he being shoved and yelled at and grabbed to get her out, and she isn't doing or saying anything in any of these videos but being there.

    Unfortunately it's still working. In fact there was an active KKK rally in Anaheim of all places last week. Anaheim, California a home for KKK rallies in 2016? Doesn't that sound incredibly strange?

    The nation has never been more divided on race issues. Obama was supposed to be a bridge to fixing racial barriers, but that never really happened. If anything I'd say it's much worse than before.

    How do we know she didn't do anything?

    MSNBC interviewed a black guy at a Trump rally, expecting him to say how racist it was. He said, "I just met this man right here and he's now my friend (old white guy) and this race stuff needs to stop." They cut back to the MSNBC lady who didn't know how to respond.

    Black lady just gets kicked out and just happens to be BLM, but she didn't do anything? What are the odds of that?

    I'll add, if she was totally innocent and got kicked out, that's not Trump. But that doesn't matter to Newsome and the Left. But a black girl approached Hillary at Starbucks yesterday and asked her about calling black people Super Predators (Google it) and Hillary ended up telling her to go run for office herself. Newsome have a comment? Hell no. He has an agenda to push.

    If she did anything, you'd think some Trump supporter would have said as much, but I haven't seen anyone say anything.

    Also, how do we even know she had anything to do with BLM? No sign. Not yelling anything as far as we know.

    Trump supporters are all racists, sexist, homophobic, and some, I assume... are good people.

    Hillary's camp made her leave. Told her she was rude and inappropriate.




    And another one Newsome won't comment on. Hillary told her to go run for something and then gave a strange laugh.


    I'll be honest -- I never heard of her calling black people SuperPredators until yesterday. She said this 20+ years ago. Should she be punished for something she said 20 years ago? I'd say more than Trump being labeled a racist for anything his base did, or didn't do.

    Yeah, don't misunderstand me.

    I'm not saying Trump is racist. I think he's an idiot in a lot of ways, but I haven't seen him say or do anything I would say is racist for sure.

    Some of his supporters, I'm sure

    This is the guy MSNBC interviewed. Gotta watch her reaction after he talks. She didn't get the response from him she hoped for.




    I feel like I'm defending Trump. I'm not for him. But people need to save the racist label for those who are racist.

    I almost want him to bring Carson along with him so we can see all the names Carson is called from the Left.
