This is Trump SOP. The case has been going on since 2011, with the Judge involved. The Judge has ruled for and against Trump at different times during this 5 year long trial. Yet only now does Trump come out and do what he always does, which is to attack and smear the character and integrity of the Judge.

Again, it's Trump's SOP, his MO. When Ben Carson was ahead in the polls last year, Trump equated him to a pedophile. When Cruz rose in the polls and began winning delegates, Trump began calling him a liar and attacked his family.

Now for 5 years Trump and his lawyers have had no issue with this Judge...until the story began to gain traction and the Judge ruled against him in releasing records (which had to be done due to a FOIA request).

Suddenly now the Judge can't do his job because he's Hispanic. Note: Trump did NOT say it was because he believed the Judge was associated with a radical group. I challenge any Trump supporter to show where, in the original attack, Trump said anything other than the cause being due to the Judge's ethnicity.

Another important note: the Judge's parents didn't just cross the Rio Grand back in the 80s. They migrated here in the 1920s...before Trump's parent's, who were born in Germany.

Trump has mentioned his "great German heritage," and how proud he was of it.

Why should this Judge be ashamed of his heritage?

"""Ryan on Trump's attacks on judge: "'I'm not going to defend these kind of comments, because they are indefensible""""

Ryan also called Trump's attack "textbook racism." But he endorsed the textbook racist, so there's that.

He might want to keep this statement on file, because he will have to use it a lot now that Trump is the nominee.

Remember the leaked conference call with Trump and his top operatives? On Monday, Trump had a call in which:

"''A clearly irritated Trump told his supporters to attack journalists who ask questions about the lawsuit and his comments about the judge.
“The people asking the questions—those are the racists,” Trump said. “I would go at ’em.”
Suggesting a broader campaign against the media, Trump said the campaign should also actively criticize television reporters. “I'd let them have it,” he said, referring to those who Trump portrayed as hypocrites."""

This morning on CNN, one of those top operatives, Jeffrey Lord did EXACTLY that. Followed it to the letter.

Jeffrey called Ryan, McConnell and the GOP establishment RACISTS for condemning Trump's attack.

I will say, if I'm Trump, I'm very, very happy the media is focusing attention on the attack. The reason I'm very happy if I'm Trump is because no one is talking about his refusal to release his tax records now. The tax records will be more damning than this attack against the Judge, and Trump knows it.

So he's very happy to keep the attention on the attack and off his taxes.

The father was here in the 20s, the mother came afterward. Death cert has her citizenship. Judge was born in America. He's as much a citizen as Donald J. Trump.

This is written by a guy who is following Trump's orders which were given in a conference call on Monday. Trump demanded his operatives paint anyone who questions his attack on the Judge as racist.

Dude is a shill with zero credibility due to his bias abd support of Trump.

nd - I do not approve of Trump's comments.
However, part of me wonders if there might be some validity to them.
