I have to give it to Colorado Congressman Keith Ellison, this is a great analogy for Muslims who vote for Donald Trump.

Meanwhile, Trump not only rejects Susana Martinez for VP but insults her right in her own state of New Mexico.
"During a 65-minute speech in Albuquerque last night, Donald Trump laced into New Mexico Republican Gov. Susana Martinez. He blamed her for the state’s economic problems, for the growing number of food stamp recipients and for not doing more to reject Syrian refugees. The billionaire even mused about moving to the state to run for governor himself."
“She’s got to do a better job,” Trump told thousands of supporters, per Jenna Johnson. “She’s not doing the job. We’ve got to get her moving. Come on: Let’s go, governor.”
"Martinez’s press secretary, Mike Lonergan, responded with a blistering statement: “Apparently, Donald Trump doesn’t realize Governor Martinez wasn’t elected in 2000, that she has fought for welfare reform, and has strongly opposed the President’s Syrian refugee plan. But the pot shots weren’t about policy, they were about politics. And the Governor will not be bullied into supporting a candidate … Governor Martinez doesn’t care about what Donald Trump says about her – she cares about what he says he will do to help New Mexicans. She didn’t hear anything about that today.”

Some Trump supporters on Twitter defend his comments by arguing that she insulted him first-during the primary. She was not positive about his campaign then, it's true. But is this the way to win her over?

Now that the primary is over, even the GOPers you fought with you would still be trying to win over if you were smart. But then this is Trump we're talking about.
It surely will do nothing to improve his abysmal numbers with Latinos and women.
Another group he's charmed: Asians.

There is also a clear anti semitism shown by many Trump supporters.
Yet, this morning Politico ran a piece about how the Bernie bros are going to vote for Trump as he's an outsider who's going to bring change.

Again, Hitler was change too. And, no. Trump is not Hitler. He just keeps a copy of the Fuhrer's speeches in a cabinet by his bed.

Clearly not Hitler.
I guess it's not surprising that some Berners vote for Colonel Sanders as he has the same candidate as their own candidate.
