Watch how his supporters will try to defend this one.

[Wiz in Wis]

He didn't say it... it won't matter.

[Gass3268]

I now know why he wasn't allowed to speak at the RNC (that and the whole killing a guy thing).

[RI]

He's black tho

[Classic Conservative]

But I thought black people were allowed to say this?

[‼realJohnEwards‼]

But I thought black people were allowed to say this?

And then white people are allowed to laugh about it? Riiiiight...

[HagridOfTheDeep]

Meh. The black community has reclaimed the word on their terms. Let me know when Donald Trump says it. Then I'll be outraged.

[Joe Biden is your president. Deal with it.]

Figures. Trump could smack a baby in the face and his supporters will say " that baby was trying to kill him!"

[Warren 4 Secretary of Everything]

Yeah this doesn't matter. He may be an Uncle Tom, but he's still black.

[MasterJedi]

Meh. The black community has reclaimed the word on their terms. Let me know when Donald Trump says it. Then I'll be outraged.

Except a huge portion of the black community hates when they use it.

He also said it in a church.

This might give some 10,000 African-Americans considering voting Trump serious pause.  Oh teh noes!

Remember that time Don King stomped a man to death in cold blood?

Doesn't keep my dad from proudly displaying the picture he has with Don King that was taken circa 1987 when he built King's office building in Deerfield. It's a pretty funny picture. My 32 year old dad, still sporting his beard leftover from the Carter presidency (got rid of the cowboy hat, the long hair, and the Saturday Night Special at least) and Don King both raising their fists in some tacky boxing pose. Next time I get down that way I'll try and get a picture of the photo to post here. This is the third Don King thread this cycle so I'm sure I'll have a reason to post it.

No. No they have not. I worry you have been drawn too deeply into the "intersectional social justice" mindset.

[Maxwell]

yes this is a non-issue, and just deflates the impact of when Trump does and says legitimately very terrible things.

have you people ever seen a Kevin Hart set?

[DrScholl]

Let's put the logic into perspective. Hillary Clinton was completely within her right to call Trump supporters deplorable, because she is white and calling other white people deplorable is totally fine. Let that logic sink in, because you can't have double standards.

Trump came very close to saying it in a rally. I was surprised he managed to hold himself back

[Green Line]

So what Im getting from this is, its OK to use the N word if youre a black man supporting a Democrat, but if youre a black man supporting a Republican, its still racist.

[Mike Thick]

Remember that time Don King stomped a man to death in cold blood?

This, IMO, is much more concerning than Trump chuckling at King's slip. It doesn't make sense to me that he has this guy campaigning for him.

The problem isn't this, it's that Trump seemed so self-satisfied about it. Like, "this is my kind of guy" and all.

[Suburbia]

So? King shouldn't have used it. President Obama has used the word "crackers" to white voters in his campaigns and got away with it.

[ProgressiveCanadian]

As if the two are equal

Obama gets away with it, King gets scrutinized.

Don King uses The "N word" at rally, Trump laughs at it

The first sentence of the linked article reads, "Donald Trump is dangerous from many different angels."

What the hell?!  that doesn't even make sense.  I've heard of angels dancing on the head of a pin, and Angels We Have Heard On High, and even angels in the outfield, but that's just silly.  Must be some new-age bullshit.  Couldn't bring myself to read the rest of the article, or even the second sentence.

Lots of reason not to support The Donald.  If you're relying on sesame street mentality stuff ("Hey kids, today's episode was brought to you by words that begin with the letter N") then you're getting desperate.  Relax, the election is still Clinton's to loose.  This silliness is not helping her.  Mostly it's more free publicity for the man who already is the master of free publicity.  Entropy will still happen, whether or not you help it along.
