Donald Trump Leaves His Neo-Nazi Tweet Posted on Twitter, Says Nothing
Apparently, Donald Trump is just going to leave his neo-Nazi-sourced tweet about “black crime” with its totally false statistics posted on Twitter, and just ignore the whole thing.
Not a word from Trump today about this; and since our LGF post has been written about in quite a few media sources now, he must know about it. He did find time to tweet an attack on the Associated Press for “dishonest reporting” without a hint of irony:
.@AP continues to do extremely dishonest reporting. Always looking for a hit to bring them back into relevancy—ain’t working!

Will any of the cable news channels call him out for this outrageous behavior? Or is it just expected now that the leading Republican presidential candidate will cite imaginary statistics from neo-Nazi sources to smear black Americans?
I know this won’t damage his support among the right wing base; it’s already been amply demonstrated that his unvarnished racism is a big part of his appeal to them. But the big cable networks have a duty to inform the rest of America exactly how debased and racist Trump’s campaign has gotten.
