The "Fucking Mexican" Comment Shouldn't be Overshadowed [View all]

To me this is as disgusting and potentially more damaging to Donald. It’s racism targeted at a demographic we need to win back and it’s once again disrespectful of the military. And it’s also sick to promise to pay for anyone’s funeral and then refuse to pay when you get the bill.
The John Kelly Hitler stuff may land, but a number of people won’t take it seriously. They’ll believe Kelly, but think the threat of dictatorship is just fear mongering.
The funeral piece and the revelation about not wanting to retrieve bodies of lost soldiers bc they “failed” has more damage potential and shouldn’t be swept off to the side.
