Donald Trump on Wednesday night falsely smeared Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer as a “proud member of Hamas.”

The Republican presidential nominee made the insulting remark about the top-ranking U.S. Jewish official at a rally in Pennsylvania. It came on the same day that Trump separately sparked an angry backlash for questioning Vice President Kamala Harris’ racial identity.

    I have a real hard time believing in a mythical voter who has no problem with “grab 'em by the pussy” but draws the line at the hard-r n-word.

      I think open sexism is more normalized than open racism. There’s no “it’s just boys being boys” or “locker-room talk” description of dropping the n-word.

      Black conservatives blindly holding out hope it’s not true that he’s a racist?

        If they’re able to think that after all he’s done, they’ll find an excuse to ignore it just like everything else.
