Trump Will Not Rest Until Even Kids Know About His Anti-Semitic Tweet

He managed to drag <em>Frozen</em> into this.
It seems Donald Trump has finally taken a hard look at the polls and decided that rather than attempting to catch up to Hillary Clinton, he'll try to create the most unbelievable headline ever. Here's tonight's effort: "Presumptive Republican Presidential Nominee Donald Trump Defends Anti-Semitic Tweet With Photo of Frozen Sticker Book." After days of coverage, people were starting to move past Trump tweeting an image featuring Hillary Clinton, a Star of David, lots of money, and the phrase "Most Corrupt Candidate Ever!" But Trump just couldn't ... uh, let it go.
At a rally in Cincinnati on Wednesday night, Trump went on a tirade about his alleged anti-Semitism that was bad on multiple levels (and we won't even get into Trump repeating his praise for Saddam Hussein's terrorist-killing abilities, raving about his son's height, attacking Chuck Todd, and swatting a mosquito he pretended was Hillary). Trump uttered the word "star" 28 times, rattled off a list of all the Jewish people in his inner circle, and said his social-media director shouldn't have taken the image down (which contradicts his son-in-law Jared Kushner's claim that the tweet was just a "careless" mistake).

Remember nothing is making Trump continuing to rant about this or about Saddam. I think he's deliberately trying to change the subject from Hillary and Comey. Yeah, he blasted them. But then, it was 'Enough of this, pay attention to ME everyone.' |
