Trump’s racist comments about judge
Donald Trump has been rightfully reviled for his comments about U.S. District Court judge Gonzalo Curiel. Those comments are racist and bigoted and motivated by pure, wrong-headed self-interest. The only reason Trump took to the airways to complain about the judge was because of an order against him in a pending civil case, forcing him to disclose documents in a class-action fraud action based on the activities in his so-called Trump University.
Is this guy nuts? Being a racist or bigot is one thing. Trump is also showing his true colors by exposing himself as a crooked, cheap huckster, concerned only about his own bottom line and nothing else.
