I couldn't tell who attacked me, but I believe they were all speaking Swedish.

#3 I do not think Trump is racist in any way for his comments on that judge.

It is just common sense if you have a policy of building a wall on the border to keep out lllegals (and making mexico pay)

And that policy was misrepresented by lying establishment media to say "trump hates mexicans"

And that angers some mexicans (illegals and those who believe the lies)

Then it is only common sense to say that judge with mexican parents might be biased against him

And yes, same goes for a muslim judge vis a vis his great idea of a temporary halt on muslim migration

I think Trump is a tremendous candidate. I like his policies. I like that he is not taking millions in donations from Saudi Barbaria unlike Shillary Clingon

I like that he will roll back theno-borders multiculturalist fascism we have been forced to accept for 20 years

I would vote for him if i could

gO Trump!

#4 Elan Kagan said, "ethnicity will play a part in a judge's decisions". If Trump was black and the judge was a KKK member would Trump be pilloried for his comments?

#5 Mitch McConnell Paul Ryan, Lindsey Graham,

So why aren't these boys just rubber stamping O's SCOTUS nomination? Mayne because the judiciary has become just another arm of politics. The presumption of 'fairness' and adherence to the letter of the law has long ago evaporated and is indeed politically influenced. Right Justice Roberts?

#6 Trump, a man who annoys all the right people?

#7 "La Raza" or 'the race.' Could be any race I suppose. But it isn't, is it? Why can't we simply identify organizations and causes for what they actually are ?

#8 Our troll is back?

Yes, pretty much. As long as he colors between the lines he can stay and be a chew toy.

#9 If Judge Gonzalo Curiel is pushing La Raza (The Race) and other Mexican causes, it is right for Trump to question Curiel's fairness. Curiel ought to recuse himself. Trump is not being racist, he is just asking for a fair trial regarding Trump University. If the Judge is interested in fraud and corruption, he might Google the Clintons, the Clinton Foundation, and Pediophile Island.

#11 Trump, and Trump Univ we certainly have grounds for appeal if he loses. He can claim judicial bias because of his Hispanic bias and focus. He does not belong to any white support groups, and is public about his feelings on Trumps agenda. His being public on his political beliefs, as a judge, he sets himself up for appeal. The courts will be forced to relook it.

#12 The one with "La Raza" in the name apparently isn't the same odious "La Raza" that we know (though it's curious that they invite the confusion).

It's not the same but it is related to it through the La Raza Lawyers of California which lists the odious La Raza as an affilitate.

Looking at the LRLASD web-site they make a big deal about the definition of La Raza. Seems that it can also mean groups of Mexicans too.

A distinction without a difference to me.

Exactly. You just hit the nail square on the head.

#14 Considering a lot of the flak against Trump's statements comes from the very people that said there needed to be more diversity so they could take care of (aka be biased towards) their "people", I don't think Trump should apologize.

However, this is noise that confuses the real topics and the sooner Trump stops this bullshit and starts hitting Hillary on the stuff that matters and has people pissed off the better.

#15 Darth, I think Trump needs to make the point here that the judge is bias so that (a) the judge recuses himself (b) the judge has that subtle pro-Trump lean to avoid claims of bias (c) Trump has claims for the public and the courts to explain the loss.

There is time to get back at Hillary. In fact time is on Trump's side.

#16 The judge might not be Biased but there is definitely the appearance of bias.

Hispanic National Bar Assoc.
Latino Judges Assoc.
Natl Hispanic Prosecutors assoc.
and of course:
The Race Lawyers assoc. (translated)

Lots of racist names there...

#17 In California the Bench and Bar is riddled with La Raza activists. La Raza has great influence when it comes to judicial appointments, both at the Superior Court and Appellate levels. They have their own agenda, and it doesn't include non-Latinos. Everything within La Raza Nothing outside La Raza.
