The posts, which date back to 2007, included an apparent racial slur targeting civil rights leader Reverend Al Sharpton’s daughter. Other posts called President Barack Obama “a Socialist Marxist Islamo Fascist Nazi Appeaser,” and “Kenyan” and “Muslim,” according to Business Insider, which first reported the posts on Friday.
The staffer, Sam Nunberg, has denied writing the posts, according to CNN. Nunberg previously worked for the 2008 presidential campaign of Mitt Romney as chair of a New York City students’ organization, according to a LinkedIn profile under his name. Nunberg was a “low-level” staffer for the Trump campaign, the campaign told Business Insider.
The source, who asked not to be named, declined to give further details, other than to say Nunberg was no longer working for the campaign.
Trump is leading most major polls ahead of the first Republican debate on Thursday.
Earlier this week, Trump’s special counsel Michael Cohen publicly apologized for comments he made on the subject of marital rape.
Bunch of amateurs working for a blowhard. But the rubes and other low-information voters will continue to buy into the act because, hey, he’s The Donald! By the way, John O’Donnell, a former Trump executive, wrote a book in the early 1990s in which he said that Trump routinely made racist remarks, including, in a discussion about accountants, that he wanted no blacks anywhere near his money, only “short little guys who wear yarmulkes all the time. ” Trump acknowledged when the book came out that had said it. The man thinks and talks in cheap stereotypes. He’s Archie Bunker with a large bank account.
If you love America and want to see this country survive then you must support and vote Trump. Don’t even think of lending your support to any other candidate.
It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, -that we take increased devotion to that cause for which our current president and the Democratic Party in general have not given any measure of devotion- that we here highly resolve that these past seven years of Obama’s presidency have been in vain, that this nation under Trump shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
