Obama White House calls the kettle black

White House denounces Trump and his followers

The White House on Friday delivered a sweeping indictment of Donald Trump — and the larger Republican party — for the billionaire businessman's failure to correct an audience member who called the president a Muslim, saying such comments are destructive and pandering to "offensive views."

The man, Trump's first audience questioner at an event, also said O was not an American.

During the campaign of 2011, Trump personally, repeatedly, and urgently questioned O's religion and his status as a native born US citizen, a necessary qualification for the US presidency.

. . . .

“Mr. Trump isn’t the first Republican politician to countenance these kinds of views in order to win votes,” Earnest said. “In fact, that’s precisely what every Republican presidential candidate is doing when they decline to denounce Mr. Trump’s cynical strategy.”

. . . . 

But Earnest didn’t limit his critique to Trump, or even the Republican’s 2016 field. Unprompted, he issued a selected history of the past few years in Congress.

“You will recall that one Republican congressman told a reporter that he was David Duke without the baggage. That congressman was elected by a majority of his colleagues in the House of Representatives to the third-highest-ranking position in the House,” Earnest said, referring to Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.). 

“Those same members of Congress blocked immigration reform. Those same members of Congress opposed reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act. Those same members of Congress couldn’t support a simple funding bill because they were eager to defend the Confederate flag. So those are the priorities of today’s Republican Party, and they’ll continue to be until someone in the Republican Party decides to summon the courage to stand up and change it.”

Just this past Tuesday, Valerie Jarrett was having a nice sit down with some of the #BLM leadership at the White House.

O has always had a problem with race, and many of his closest black advisers and friends do indeed hate America - white America, anyway.

Some of his admirers say he has been freed to be more himself by the constitutional presidential term limit.

He can't run and isn't running in the 2016 election.

He doesn't need white voters, anymore.
