Of the 57 percent of adults who say the nation’s leader is a racist, 8 in 10 are black, three-quarters are Hispanic and almost half are white.

About 85 percent of Democrats say Trump is a racist, while 21 percent of Republicans say the same, according to the poll, which surveyed 1,337 adults from Feb. 15 to 19.

Immigration indeed needs to be reformed and the US borders need to be tightly controlled. However Trump is shown to be often led by racial concerns on these issues.

Moreover his failure to voice on white supremacy actions is damning.

I am somewhat disheartened by the low 21% for Repubs.

Some days, I get up with three questions;
Is he dead yet?
Why not?
When will this National humiliation end?

Now he’s started a trade war with China. Sigh.

The Orange Crested Tweeter tweets:

Alec Baldwin, whose dying mediocre career was saved by his terrible impersonation of me on SNL, now says playing me was agony. Alec, it was agony for those who were forced to watch. Bring back Darrell Hammond, funnier and a far greater talent!

Feckin' snowflake.

He just can't let it go. Any perceived slight, no matter how small must be addressed even if it hurts him.

I hope Cadet Bonespurs shows up for the White House Press Corps dinner. Michelle Wolf is going to toast his lard ass.

Trump is still indifferent to learning policy and is prone to prattle in public about subjects he doesn’t bother to study. No one else can make up for his lack of diligence, ethics and decency. This is not so much as an administration as a weird fusion of the court of Louis XIV and the Mafia, all built around a cult of personality that lacks any self-restraint or awareness.

Ya think?

This is from the Comment Section from WaPo today.

While we are distracted by tweets, nepotism and self-dealing, it is the Cabinet that is doing most of the damage. These are some of the impostors:

A brain surgeon in charge of Housing (Ben Carson)
A racist bigot in charge of Justice (Jeff Sessions)
Wall Street in charge of Treasury (Steven Mnuchin – Gary Cohn)
A corrupt stooge in charge of the EPA – (Scott Pruitt)
A profiteer non-educator in charge of Education (Betsy DeVos)
An oilman in charge of diplomacy (Rex Tillerson)
A loose cannon giving pristine lands to polluters (Ryan Zinke)
A multimillionaire investor in charge of Commerce (Wilbur Ross)
A big pharma former executive in charge of HHS (Alex Azar)

Trump is using the presidency to run what looks like a crime syndicate bent on plundering and destroying the country, with the Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan, fully complicit. Godspeed, Mr. Mueller!
