    "Look at My African-American Over Here"

    ‘Look at My African-American Over Here,’ Donald Trump Says at Rally

    REDDING, Calif. — In a speech in which he promoted the backing of Chinese-Americans in Los Angeles and called protesters at a rally in San Jose “thugs,” Donald J. Trump on Friday sought to project support from African-Americans for his campaign on a single man in the audience.

    Mr. Trump, at a rally here, began speaking about a previous rally in Arizona in which a black supporter was arrested after punching a protester.

    “We had a case where we had an African-American guy who is a fan of mine,” Mr. Trump said of an event in Arizona in March. “In fact I want to find out what’s going on with him.”

    As his voice trailed off, Mr. Trump noticed a man in the crowd.

    “Oh look at my African-American over here,” Mr. Trump said. “Are you the greatest? Do you know what I’m talking about?”

    Mr. Trump then returned to speaking about the Arizona episode.

    We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

    Hahahahaha!  Reminds me of someone I know who was in the hospital for a few days.  I would classify her as a racist, but she objected to my observation by telling me, "I'm not a racist.  One of the nurses that checks on me is black."
