1. Where do you check to see if he sent this, or if one of his minions did.

I read there's a way to see if it was sent via an iphone or android, but don't know where that is indicated.

4. I don't know how to do it myself,

but here's an article that talks about it. I haven't tried it because it looks a little involved.

UPDATE:
This is probably a better/easier explanation: http://www.sixtwodigital.com/how-to-see-where-people-are-tweeting-from/

6. Thanks - this is when I really miss my techie nephew

He'd smile, do a couple of key strokes and hand me back my lap top with that 'You're so quaint, Auntie.' smile on his face.

That being said, it's just offensive enough for me to guess it came right from Trump's personal android.

[sarae]

7. hah! I can't figure it out either,

but I have no doubt that it came straight from him; it's apparent that the person who wrote it has no ability to empathize with people.

[Siwsan]

8. I'm going to do the 'google' thing to see if someone has a site that unmasks the tweets

I know I've seen some posted with the identifier revealed. If someone isn't doing this, is might be a good idea for someone to start.

2. What's his plan? Move them all into Trump Tower and lock the doors?

[KeepItReal]

9. We are not allowed to live in his buildings, remember?

Eom

3. Based on polling numbers

their belief in Don the Con's leadership abilities is completely SHOT. Nearly 100% of these minority groups feel that way. Way to go, Donald the uniter!!!

5. Two comments I've heard

On TV directly after he opened with "rapists" I saw a A-A guy say "If he thinks that about them, he thinks that about us"

Co-worker on Trump's "What have they got to lose?" --- "He must not know that we aren't all poor, settle for bad schools, and live in war zones".

He has no hope.

10. The Mexican rapist thing

should have been the canary in the coal mine. Maybe I am just sensitive, with the wife being Mex-Am and all.

12. +1, Chris Rocks abbreviated for of Niemöller poem.. "If they talk about Jews that way black folk...

... are next"

He didn't say black folk but you get the idea...

We're not excluded from the hate talk once any minority group is talked about in a negative light.

[ProfessorPlum]

14. That's an extremely important point

and the same is true for Jewish people, too. Hate doesn't seem to make fine distinctions. When one group is threatened, all of us are threatened, and we should react accordingly.

11. Off to the greatest. nt

[Jeffersons Ghost]

13. K&R

[Person 2713]

15. Sick and desperate and just pissing people off . Like a stalker date you said no to fifty times

Not happening dude

[bucolic_frolic]

16. TRUMP thinks he's a protection racket?

Shows you where his mind is and the people he associates with

[Coyotl]

17. Blame the landlord who wouldn't allow POC into his safe hood. You Donald created the unsafe hoods.

Would that fit in a tweet?

[63splitwindow]

18. Considering the source, that sounds like a threat.

[lastlib]

19. 'How many more have to be shot before they vote for Trump?'

Probly ALL of 'em........

just a little .........

[ecstatic]

20. Unbelievable. Once again, are we being punked?

Is he a real candidate or is this the best satire ever?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

21. His plan is to strut around making America great again.....

On day one.

Problem solved.

[Beartracks]

24. What is that GIF?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

26. Mussolini doing a Trump impression.

[Beartracks]

31. LOL - Wait, is that really...

... an un-touched-up Mussolini "clip"? Wow, that is a lot of brash, tough-ass 'tude.

=======================

[Spitfire of ATJ]

32. The resemblance is eerie.

[napkinz]

29. yep ...

[tblue37]

22. Good grief! nt

[IronLionZion]

23. What exactly is his case for why minorities should vote for him?

You'll die if you don't?



How's Trump going to keep people safe from gun violence by encouraging more second amendment solutions?

[Beartracks]

25. "Vote for me or die." Yeah, that sounds like democracy. n/t

[Wounded Bear]

28. At the risk of being accused of supporting slavery or something...

a popular saying from a few years ago comes to mind.

The floggings will continue until morale improves.

The typical authoritarian response when force doesn't work is more force. You know....when your only tool is a hammer, all your problems start to look like nails. The whole right wing has reduced itself to ineffective cliches.

30. ...

If you don't eat your meat
You can't have any pudding
How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

[napkinz]

27. that's right, it'll be like "the good old days"
