Cheato just called Chris Christie

a fat pig at his "rally". The crowd roared.

Maybe tomorrow would be a good day for Chris to endorse Joe? C'mon, Chris, you know you want to.

And say what you will about Christie, he's good at verbally taking down trump. I mean he has a gift. We could use him on our side.

Born 1944 when Mississippi was about 1/2 inch removed from slavery.

Left at age 18, never looked back.

Spent a LOT of time in southern Appalachia -- NE TN, SE KY, SW VA, SW WV.

I know white trash when I see it. In fact, I have a PhD in Whitetrashology.

Trump supporters are white trash. They would sooner die of a dread disease than see a penny of their tax money go to cure the disease if the cure benefits n#####s and Muslims. Believe me. That's the way they are.

when I was young, about the age when you left. I was born and raised in the Chicago area and the culture shock blew me away. I had no idea how bad it really was until I lived there. This was right before the Civil Rights Act passed. I may have seen you leaving!

I remember graffiti on the lockers at school: "The South will Rise again" and "Rebels". My American History teacher entered me in an essay contest and the prize was a portrait of Jefferson Davis for the school. Fortunately, I didn't win.

The racism was rather nonchalant and accepted like the weather, just a part of normal life. If I questioned people about it (which I did frequently), they were often caught off guard, as they apparently had never questioned it.

And the N-word was used in casual conversation without second thought, as if it was an acceptable noun like Italians or Germans. "Granny hired a N-word to clean the apartment for me." (A friend actually wrote that to me in a letter.) They felt no need to use a more polite word, because they saw nothing wrong with it. I think the casualness is what was the most offensive. It was rarely in anger or necessarily hateful, it was just their name for black people. Of course, there was anger and hate, but most of the time it was maddeningly ordinary.

Having grown up in the south and having rocks thrown at me, because I'm part Native American and Catholic, I understand. When they called me Jesus killer, China man, Spick etc:, I didn't know why at first. It started when I was 12-13. One day, the lady next door, explained to me, they are just 'white trash'. That was back in the 60s. She said just remember, 'Ignorance Is Bliss. I joined the military and never went back.

The GOP puts party before the good of the Country.

I really first noticed this with Pence; he made a comment that his priories were God, family and party. No where did he mention the country.

So, the GOP members that hate/dislike/disagree and hold contempt for everything that Trump is and stands for, at the end of the day they will vote for him.

That White Nationalism is strong in the GOP - no denying what they are.
