Here's a graphic displaying the google search frequency of "La Raza" over the last week.

The media has been going wild over Trump's comments about the Mexican judge. They would have you believe that this will surely sink Trump's campaign.

But once again, Trump is playing everyone like a fiddle. This is the same result we saw when he first announced his campaign. He says something controversial about building a wall, the media freaks out and calls him a racist, but then people look into it and say, "Wow, Trump is actually on to something".

So now Trump is forcing people to get informed about La Raza. All this is going to do is increase his support, especially after the San Jose riots. "Maybe a wall is a good idea if these La Raza guys are cropping up..."

This may be my favorite move of his yet. The guy is simply a genius. His social mastery is unrivaled.

Every "officer" who obeyed the order to stand down should be punished as if they were the perpetrators committing the violence or worse. I wish someone would leak the name of whomever gave them the order.

Any future violence is on the hands of the enablers (law enforcement). They're the ones communicating to everyone that terrorism will be tolerated.

You should not assume just because the police officers have Latin names that they are anti-Trump. Many Latino-Americans are pro-Trump and dislike the Hispanic gangsters and troublemakers like the ones who caused trouble in San Jose.

STATEMENT REGARDING TRUMP UNIVERSITY
It is unfortunate that my comments have been misconstrued as a categorical attack against people of Mexican heritage. I am friends with and employ thousands of people of Mexican and Hispanic descent. The American justice system relies on fair and impartial judges. All judges should be held to that standard. I do not feel that one’s heritage makes them incapable of being impartial, but, based on the rulings that I have received in the Trump University civil case, I feel justified in questioning whether I am receiving a fair trial.

Over the past few weeks, I have watched as the media has reported one inaccuracy after another concerning the ongoing litigation involving Trump University. There are several important facts the public should know and that the media has failed to report.

Throughout the litigation my attorneys have continually demonstrated that students who participated in Trump University were provided a substantive, valuable education based upon a curriculum developed by professors from Northwestern University, Columbia Business School, Stanford University and other respected institutions. And, the response from students was overwhelming. Over a five year period, more than 10,000 paying students filled out surveys giving the courses high marks and expressing their overwhelming satisfaction with Trump University’s programs. For example:

Former student Tarla Makaeff, the original plaintiff in the litigation, not only completed multiple surveys rating Trump University’s three-day seminar “excellent” in every category, but also praised Trump University’s mentorship program in a glowing 5 plus minute video testimonial. When asked “how could Trump University help to meet [her] goals”, she simply stated “[c]ontinue to offer great classes.” Once the plaintiffs’ lawyers realized how disastrous a witness she was, they asked to have her removed from the case. Over my lawyers’ objections, the judge granted the plaintiffs’ motion, but allowed the case to continue.

Art Cohen, a lead plaintiffs in the litigation, completed a survey in which he not only rated Trump University’s three-day seminar “excellent” in virtually every category, but went so far as to indicate that he would “attend another Trump University seminar” and even “recommend Trump University seminars to a friend.” When asked how Trump University could improve the seminar, Mr. Cohen’s only suggestion was to “[h]ave lunch sandwiches brought in” and make the lunch break 45 minutes.

Former student Bob Giullo, who has been critical of Trump University in numerous interviews and negative advertisements from my political opponents, also expressed his satisfaction, rating Trump University’s programs “excellent” in every category. When asked how Trump University could improve its programs, Mr. Giullo simply asked that students be provided “more comfortable chairs.”
Indeed, these are just a few of literally thousands of positive surveys, all of which can be viewed online at http://www.98percentapproval.com.

For those students who decided that Trump University’s programs were not for them, the company had a generous refund policy, offering a full refund to any student who asked for their money back within 3 days of signing up for a program or by the end of the first day of any multi-day program, whichever came later.

Normally, legal issues in a civil case would be heard in a neutral environment. However, given my unique circumstances as nominee of the Republican Party and the core issues of my campaign that focus on illegal immigration, jobs and unfair trade, I have concerns as to my ability to receive a fair trial.

I am fighting hard to bring jobs back to the United States. Many companies – like Ford, General Motors, Nabisco, Carrier – are moving production to Mexico. Drugs and illegal immigrants are also pouring across our border. This is bad for all Americans, regardless of their heritage.

Due to what I believe are unfair and mistaken rulings in this case and the Judge’s reported associations with certain professional organizations, questions were raised regarding the Obama appointed Judge’s impartiality. It is a fair question. I hope it is not the case.

While this lawsuit should have been dismissed, it is now scheduled for trial in November. I do not intend to comment on this matter any further.

With all of the thousands of people who have given the courses such high marks and accolades, we will win this case!

Paul Ryan's statement on the Trump/Judge thing

Quote:“I disavow these comments. I regret these comments that he made,” Ryan stated during a press conference Tuesday morning. “Claiming a person can’t do a job because of their race is sort of like the textbook definition of a racist comment. I think that should be absolutely disavowed. It’s absolutely unacceptable, but do I believe that Hillary Clinton is the answer? No, I do not.”

Ryan is garbage.

So questioning a judge who has left leaning pro immigration views that has the name La Raza related to him is now racist ?

Regardless if it's the actual La Raza organization or not, it still means the same thing and has the same views.

Trump turns down hundreds of millions to pick Gingrich as VP

Quote:Donald Trump refused $200 million in donations to take Newt Gingrich as vice president, insiders told Infowars.
The mainstream media reported that casino magnate Sheldon Adelson was willing to contribute $100 million to Trump’s campaign, but what wasn’t reported was the extra $100 million the establishment offered Trump in exchange for picking Gingrich, one of the first D.C. insiders to try and cozy up to the mogul.
When Trump declined the offer, however, Gingrich started lashing out at him publicly, including his recent claim that Trump made “one of his worst mistakes” for pointing out the federal judge handling the Trump University lawsuit has ties to the controversial La Raza Hispanic nationalist organization.

"I don't know what Trump's reasoning was, and I don't care,” Gingrich told the Washington Post.
It’d be unlikely for Gingrich to take such a weird stance in the matter unless he was already bitter at Trump – and trying to pressure him to change his mind.
But it’s in Trump’s best interests to pick someone close to him ideologically as VP, such as Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), to avoid a potential assassination attempt.
Case in point, Ronald Reagan was nearly assassinated after only serving 69 days in office – and after the establishment forced him to take George H.W. Bush as his VP.
If Reagan died in the attack, the elite would have taken back the Oval Office, but even though Reagan survived, the establishment still gained influence over him – with Vice President Bush serving as a constant reminder to stay in line.

Similarly, the GOP elite want their own person as VP to restrain Trump, and when he refused the offer to take Gingrich, establishment Republicans united to attack him despite their calls for party unity just last week.
Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) in particular accused Trump of racism on Monday, despite Sasse’s own state GOP party reprimanding him last month for his outspoken criticism of the presumptive nominee.
The freshman senator is risking political suicide by condemning Trump, yet he strangely continues to do so, indicating he’s a puppet controlled by a wealthy donor.
And Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) even had the audacity to claim Trump was a “very, very unpopular candidate” despite Trump consistently polling at over 50% while Congress’s approval rating is only 6%.
In short, the GOP elite want Gingrich or another insider as VP to keep Trump under control – and they’ll help Hillary get elected if they don’t get their wish.

And a hypocrite. Ryan required members of his staff to read Ayn Rand, a writer who has been called racist more than once. A few examples:

The media is going on and on over trump university and the Mexican judge. CNN fir example have the usual pundits who are anti trump for the last year and they are all up in arms. Duh,,,, what answer do you expect these pundits to give.

Trump needs to present Isis chopping off heads and the leftists complaining about his tone in commercials. he needs to shock and awe.

This is the sentence that matters most about Trump's statement:

Quote:I do not intend to comment on this matter any further.

He will stick to this pledge, and the matter will be forgotten within a couple of weeks. This should have been done days ago (indeed, he shouldn't have commented on the case to begin with, because there was absolutely nothing to gain from doing so) but better late than never.

Despite the Year Zero media frenzy that surrounded it, this episode will not seriously damage Trump's campaign. It can even be a good thing if he learns to a) not get distracted by extraneous nonsense of this kind, and b) listen more closely to Manafort. Manafort has been counseling him from the outset not to talk about this judge and about the case, but Trump listens to Corey too much and that's a problem. I hope he takes this lesson to heart and goes back to campaigning on his winning issues: jobs, trade, immigration, rebuilding America's infrastructure, hitting the worthless and crooked Hillary Clinton, and Making America Great Again.

I'd shade PA and OH red right now. FLA, IDK, I'd like to think old people will go red.

VA, NJ, and NY..VA, should be in play but there are so many government contractors there that make money off the Waste.Fraud.Abuse that they will vote in their own interests. NY & NJ will probably be blue.

The perfect storm of identity politics and increasingly crazy prog "tranny/blm/illegal alien" pandering is turning sensible "altruistic" (ie virtue signaling) americans off while the brazen, no bullshit on the uptick trump train is the most attractive mode of transportation seen the Model T.

No Joseph.. Hillary is in fact terrifying.

http://pagesix.com/2016/06/05/tell-all-b...ite-house/

Quote:Hillary Clinton has a “Jekyll and Hyde” personality that left White House staffers scared stiff of her explosive — and even physical — outbursts, an ex-Secret Service officer claims in a scathing new tell-all.


Gary Byrne, who was posted outside the Oval Office when Bill Clinton was president, portrays Hillary as too “erratic, uncontrollable and occasionally violent” to become leader of the free world
, according to advance promotional materials exclusively obtained by Page Six.

The allegations from Byrne, a 29-year veteran of the military and federal law enforcement, threaten to derail her campaign days before she is expected to clinch the Democratic presidential nomination.


He describes Hillary Clinton as acting friendly one moment, then raging the next.


“What I saw in the 1990s sickened me,” he writes in the intro of the book, “Crisis of Character: A White House Secret Service Officer Discloses his Firsthand Experience with Hillary, Bill, and How They Operate.”

The book claims she repeatedly screamed obscenities at her husband, Secret Service personnel and White House staffers — all of whom lived in terror of her next tirade.


Secret Service agents had discussions about the possibility that they would have to protect Bill from his wife’s physical attacks, Byrne writes, and the couple had one “violent encounter” the morning of a key presidential address to the nation.

Meanwhile, a paranoid Hillary Clinton tried to have the Secret Service banned from the White House and once tried to ditch her security detail, Byrne says.


“Hillary Clinton is now poised to become the Democratic nominee for president of the United States, but she simply lacks the integrity and temperament to serve in the office,” he writes.

“From the bottom of my soul I know this to be true. And with Hillary’s latest rise, I realize that her own leadership style — volcanic, impulsive, enabled by sycophants, and disdainful of the rules set for everyone else — hasn’t changed a bit.”

The book isn’t set for release until June 28, but pre-orders have sent it to No. 1 on Amazon’s best-seller list.


Byrne — who was subpoenaed to testify before the grand jury that investigated Bill Clinton’s affair with intern Monica Lewinsky — claims in the book that he interrupted the president’s sexual shenanigans in the White House.

Byrne says he walked into a room where the president was “involved inappropriately with a woman” who was neither his wife nor Lewinsky.

And he says he once threw out a White House towel stained with a woman’s lipstick — and the president’s “bodily fluids.”

Byrne describes arriving for work one day in 1995 following a loud fight between the Clintons the night before.

The dust-up, he says, left a light blue vase “smashed to bits” and Bill sporting a “real, live, put-a-steak-on-it black eye.”


Byrne’s book amplifies earlier allegations of mistreatment of Secret Service personnel by Hillary Clinton — including in 2014’s “First Family Detail” by former Washington Post reporter Ronald Kessler and last year’s “The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House,” which also detailed a fight between Bill and Hillary over the Lewinsky affair.


Hillary Clinton’s campaign downplayed Byrne’s book and compared him to Edward Klein, author of last year’s “Unlikeable: The Problem with Hillary.”

“Gary Byrne joins the ranks of Ed Klein and other ‘authors’ in this latest in a long line of books attempting to cash in on the election cycle with their nonsense,” spokesman Nick Merrill said. “It should be put in the fantasy section of the book store.”

A spokeswoman for presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump suggested Byrne’s book would be grist for his campaign as prepares to face Clinton in the general election.

“The issue of temperament is more a problem for Hillary Clinton,” said the spokeswoman, Katrina Pierson.

“I don’t recall Mr. Trump ever screaming at the Secret Service, calling them pigs, throwing vases across the room and clawing the face of his spouse, which Hillary Clinton has been reported to do,” she told CNN.
