Trump claims Langer told him he stood in line to vote and wasn't allowed while some dark skinned people behind him were allowed to vote.

Problem is, Langer is a German citizen and presumably smart enough to know he can't vote. The whole story stinks.

1. Maybe Langer meant in Germany?

He also might be a dual citizen...

[Kingofalldems]

5. According to the article he is not a citizen.

2. That is PURE racism...if the color of your skin decides who can vote...well, where do

ORANGE assholes vote?

3. What the hell does the color of the skin of the people behind you have to do with

anything....Fuck you Langer...YOU LIE.

6. Langer's daughter responded and said Langer does not know Trump

and that her father is not a citizen so he would not be in a voter line.

I think Trump made up the whole thing.

8. Is this "alternative facts" or "alternative reality" for Trump?

I am really scared that Comrade Trumpsky cannot distinguish between reality and what he seems to invent in that disturbed mind of his...

11. This should be all over the news

4. "Ahead of and behind Mr. Langer were voters who did not look as if they should be

allowed to voted, Mr. Trump said, according to the staff members, but they were nonetheless permitted to cast provisional ballots. The President threw out the names of Latin American countries the voters might have come from."


Langer lives in Boca Raton, FL and is a German citizen with permanent residence status in this country therefore he's barred from voting. Trump's an unapologetic asshole.

7. More brietbart lies

[GreenEyedLefty]

9. Best line of the article:

The anecdote, the aides said, was greeted with silence...

[smb]

12. It's Better Than That

The full sentence makes it even better:

The anecdote, the aides said, was greeted with silence, and Mr. Trump was prodded to change the subject by Reince Priebus, the White House chief of staff, and Senator John Cornyn, Republican of Texas.

Even they know that the Short-Fingered Vulgarian (28 years and his nose is still out of joint!) is the drunk uncle that you try to shush so he doesn't embarrass himself even worse than he has already.

10. I DO believe Langer DID say that to Trump

But I guess the joke sailed right over his head.
