Ah, as opposed the 85% that Hillary-who, the last time I checked, is white-gets from black women, for example(see below)? You completely ignored the context in which that asshole made his comment, and you didn't have shit to say about his comment about Jews; do you ever take a break from being a hypocrtical asshole?
Why 85% of Black Female Voters Support Hillary Clinton (And Its Not for the Reasons You Think)
By Constance Hilliard

African-American female voters are supporting Hillary Clinton at a rate of 85+%. We are neither the so-called "Establishment" nor are we being paid off by billionaire bankers to support Clinton. Sadly, Bernie Sanders is trying to turn back the clock on civil rights, while blathering about being a socialist, progressive, revolutionary. So, let me explain what "voter suppression" really is. It is Bernie trying to convince the superdelegates that he should be given the nomination based on the votes of "white" elitist caucus states, while the Southern primaries, where black voters helped to give Hillary sweeping victories, should be ignored. Bernie's excuse is that he can convince the superdelegates that he would be a better general election candidate against Trump than Hillary. If the Governor of California and other Democratic officials really believed that, they would already have switched to Bernie. They are politicians; their goal is to win elections.
The race is over. Bernie would be an unmitigated disaster in a general election, once the Republicans spent $500 million flinging his dirty laundry at voters? If you don't believe they couldn't swift-boat him, then see how well centrists (who are the core of American voters) embrace new programs that will cost taxpayers $33 trillion, a wife who might still be investigated for financial malfeasance at a college that has now been forced to close. Then there's prickly, thin-skinned, Bernie himself, who got his first job at the age of 40, wrote pornography, honeymooned in Russia, made speeches praising Fidel Castro, Communist Cuba and the egalitarian nature of bread-lines. These issues don't bother me. But they would disgust a majority of American voters. And he still refuses to release more than a section of one year's tax returns, even-though Hillary has released two decades worth and he's the one promising transparency .
But why should so-called low-information black voters (according to Bernie Bros), especially women like myself support Hillary? In fact, that loyalty and high turn-out in the Super Tuesday, Southern primaries became a key component in the firewall that has sealed the nomination for Mrs. Clinton. I had not taken the time to parse my fealty and that of my friends to Hillary, until a few weeks ago. Sitting in the swivel chair at a friend’s beauty salon, I followed the election news coverage on a small television screen atop the counter. Suddenly, my beautician friend leaned over me and asked: “Do you know why ‘they’ hate Hillary so much.” I shook my head, more out of curiosity than an inability to supply a host of reasons recycled from media reports. “She’s a ‘n*gger-lover’” my friend said with a loving vehemence that took me aback. And within that instant, it all fell into place. By “all”, I mean, the feelings of intimacy that I too felt for this rich, white woman.

For those, who do not live in the "deep South", it might be hard to grasp the power of that label, which is not so much spoken at its target as spat. A white southerner of the old school, would rather be called a child molester than a ‘n*gger-lover’. The social structure of the old South has never been defined purely by wealth. Social standing in the racial hierarchy was so compelling a motivator, that during election time, poor whites preferred, and still do, to vote their color-elevated status rather than their economic interests. In this social universe, you were in order of rank, a white person, a black person or a rock bottom, a n*gger-lover.
However wealthy the Clintons might be, they are in the culture of the white South little better than "trailer trash". Why? It is because of the political decisions they have made over the course of their lives. Hillary wasn't running for President as a college student at Yale Law School when she went down to Alabama, working undercover, to investigate school segregation on behalf of the Children’s Defense Fund or when she set up legal clinics for single parent families in Arkansas. Over the course of the past 40 years, the Clintons lost their privileged position in Southern white society and were despised accordingly.
Yes. This is why so many black women, especially in the South would never abandon Hillary, especially now that we’ve enjoyed the penultimate victory, which is having Michelle Obama as First Lady. So, when Bernie supporters call the woman a whore, an evil witch, corrupt and unqualified, the accusations sound hauntingly familiar. I am not suggesting that Bernie’s supporters are racists. But I am saying that they are naïvely unaware of the cultural roots of these attacks.
How does that make me hypocritical? I simply stated why race was relevant in 08' and '12. Obama outperformed Kerry by 5%. I didn't comment on the Sanders portion because I have no clue why Dave included the Jew part for Sanders. I agree with you that it was unnecessary. You need to relax. I wasn't even trying to argue with you.
Just LUV the way the GOP is rallying around their boy, lol...
BuzzFeed cancels $1.3 million Republican ad buy for Trump, citing 'offensive' statements, proposals

Online news site BuzzFeed is out: They've bowed out of a $1.3 million advertising buy from the RNC because the Donald Trump campaign is too unpalatable to stomach.
The letter sent from BuzzFeed's CEO to company employees cites Trump's long-term stances against, well, pretty much everything:
I guess we'll find out. As the BuzzFeed bow-out shows, it was easier to agree to these deals in past months, when there was still some room for Republicans to assure partners that things weren't going to be as bad as it looked like they'd be. Now that Trump really is the nominee—full racist jackass Trump, not some theoretical watered-down version—Reince Priebus and team can't make such claims. Expect other companies to bow out of prior arrangements with the party as well, citing this-or-that new Trump statement. When you know there's a train wreck coming, it's best to get off the train.

Online news site BuzzFeed is out: They've bowed out of a $1.3 million advertising buy from the RNC because the Donald Trump campaign is too unpalatable to stomach.
In an email to staff on Monday, BuzzFeed founder and CEO Jonah Peretti explained that in April, the RNC and BuzzFeed signed an agreement to "spend a significant amount on political advertisements slated to run during the Fall election cycle." But since Trump became the nominee his campaign has proven themselves to be "directly opposed to the freedoms of our employees in the United States," because of proposed bans on Muslim immigration and comments about descendants of immigrants, among other policies.
It's not clear that Trump's rhetoric these past few weeks is any different from his behavior back in April, when the advertising deal was inked, but it has at least become clear that Trump has no intention of backing away from his flagrant racist rhetoric and the RNC, despite what they may have assured advertisers as Trump dispatched with the last of his opponents, has no ability to rein in Trump's worst instincts.The letter sent from BuzzFeed's CEO to company employees cites Trump's long-term stances against, well, pretty much everything:
The tone and substance of his campaign are unique in the history of modern US politics. Trump advocates banning Muslims from traveling to the United States, he's threatened to limit the free press, and made offensive statements toward women, immigrants, descendants of immigrants, and foreign nationals. [...] The Trump campaign is directly opposed to the freedoms of our employees in the United States and around the world and in some cases, such as his proposed ban on international travel for Muslims, would make it impossible for our employees to do their jobs.
As individual companies bow out from advertising arrangements with the Republican Party, it certainly puts a spotlight on those that are left. Companies sponsoring the Republican convention, in particular, will be expected to square Trump's stance against not-white-enough federal judges, Muslims, immigrants, the press, and so forth with their desired company image and supposed company ideals; are there companies in America eager to become known as the official sponsors of belligerent, xenophobic rage?
I guess we'll find out. As the BuzzFeed bow-out shows, it was easier to agree to these deals in past months, when there was still some room for Republicans to assure partners that things weren't going to be as bad as it looked like they'd be. Now that Trump really is the nominee—full racist jackass Trump, not some theoretical watered-down version—Reince Priebus and team can't make such claims. Expect other companies to bow out of prior arrangements with the party as well, citing this-or-that new Trump statement. When you know there's a train wreck coming, it's best to get off the train.

[h=1]Carson warns Trump of 'moral descent' on judge attacks[/h]By NICK GASS and KYLE CHENEY

Ben Carson has a moral lesson for Donald Trump: Don't forget that people are individuals first.
"Every human being is an individual first rather than a member of an identity group. The moment we forget that is the moment we enter into a phase of moral descent," Carson told POLITICO in a statement through business manager Armstrong Williams.
The comment comes as the presumptive Republican nominee faces scrutiny from members of his own party over comments that Judge Gonzalo Curiel, born in Indiana to Mexican parents, should not be allowed to preside over Trump University cases. Trump has said Curiel has an "inherent conflict of interest" due to the billionaire's proposal to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, and he has similarly suggested a Muslim judge could be disqualified by virtue of his call to temporarily ban Muslim immigration.
The retired neurosurgeon and former primary opponent endorsed Trump in March.

He called for a complete separation of the races. ‘Integration is wrong,’ he insisted, ‘we don’t want to live with the white man. I’m sure no intelligent white person in his or her right mind wants black men and women marrying their white sons and daughters and in return introducing their grandchildren to half brown, kinky haired people. I want to be with my own. No women on this whole earth can please me and cook for me and socialise and talk to me like an American black woman. You can’t take no Chinese man and give him no Puerto Rican woman and talking like they’re in love and emotionally in love and physically.’
.

Explaining why he believed all white men were also ‘the devil’, Ali said: ‘I’ve heard Elijah Muhammad say that many white people mean right and in their heart want to do right. But if 10,000 rattle snakes were coming down the aisle right there and I had a door I could shut, and one thousands of those snakes meant right, they didn’t want to bite me and I knew they were good. Should I let those rattle snakes come down, hoping those one thousand get together and form a shield? Or should I close the door and stay safe?’
White people, he said, ‘kill our men…and rape our women daily.’
Ali’s rampant racism even extended to wanting blacks who had sex with whites murdered.
‘A black man should be killed if he’s messing around with a white women,’ he said.
And if a black woman was messing with a white man?
‘Then she dies. Kill her too.’
Imagine if Donald Trump said any of these things about blacks or Muslims?
