Following Anti-Semitism Charges, Trump Super PAC's Absurd Counter-Attack on Clinton

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NancyBlueINOklahoma (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Completely ignoring Donald Trump’s own sordid history with white supremacists and neo-Nazis, a super PAC supporting the presumed Republican presidential candidate recently launched a website absurdly attempting to link Democratic rival Hillary Clinton with the Ku Klux Klan.

Thursday, the pro-Trump anti-Clinton group "Crippled America" sent an email request to donors asking for money to air an advertisement on Clinton and the 2013 Benghazi attacks, Raw Story reports. The email was sent from info@KKKlinton.com, a website showcasing the Clintons' friendship with the late Sen. Robert Byrd, a reformed KKK member who eventually disavowed the hate group. The site includes a video touting the relationship between Clinton and Byrd, along with a pop-up that reads, “This image is of Hillary Clinton kissing Senator Robert Byrd who was, until his death, an avid racist who Hillary Clinton praised at his funeral and throughout her Husband’s presidential runs.”

so he can emerge on October 20th on a white horse with his
first coherent message of the campaign and attempt to sway
minds that are confused, tired, weak with populist nationalism,
racism, and probably inclusion too

Call the looney bin white suit crowd, we have a live one in need
of time out and medication

He's following Rove's rule #1, attack an opponent on your own weaknesses and their strengths. He's trying to hide that he's the KKK supporter by saying she's racist. Unfortunately, he's so dumb he keeps sourcing memes from white power groups, showing what he truly reads and supports.
