Each time he retweets from white supremists, he is encouraging them. After the first retweet that got Trump in trouble, his campaign should be vetting the origin of every retweet.

And by not apologizing for the tweets, he is further encouraging them.

He needs to be called out on where the tweets are coming from, even it they way apple pie and motherhood.

he's demonstrated he has very thin skin - and, I love how Elizabeth Warren gets under his thin skin so frequently.

Anyone with a brain knows he's going to appeal to the lowest common denominator of the population.

Or is it his former caddy, who is now Trump's social media director?

His caddy is his social media director.

Trump campaign cannot be for real. It's either a fake campaign, or he's broke, and can't afford any campaign staff.

So, on here I can let loose.

Even if Hillary Clinton were guilty of all the crap with which she has been criticized.....which she is not, she would still be a better choice than Trump.
