CNN Correspondent Lewandowski: Trump Can't be Anti-Semitic as He Has Jewish Friends

Makes sense. In the same way, Corey Lewandowski doesn't work for the Trump campaign as he's paid by CNN to defend the indefensible. 

Hitler may have had Jewish friends. In 2016, is this seriously being treated as a legitimate defense?

"Corey Lewandowski Says Trump Can’t Be Anti-Semitic Because He Has Jewish Friends
It’s been 72 hours and Trump’s supporters are still defending his controversial tweet."

Which begs the question: If there was nothing wrong with the tweet, why'd Trump take it down?

"It’s been over 72 hours since Donald Trump tweeted an anti-Semitic image of Hillary Clinton, and his supporters are still defending him."

"Former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, now a CNN commentator, said that Trump can’t be anti-semitic because he has Jewish friends."

“Whether it’s the senior executives of his private corporation, whether it’s the CFO or the CTO or his chief legal counsel — he has a long and storied history” of supporting “the people of Israel.”

"Lewandowski also pointed out the presumptive GOP nominee allowed Jewish people to be members of his Palm Beach tennis club."

Trump's old friend, Roy Cohn, didn't just have Jewish friends-he was Jewish as Lewandowski is. He was also gay. That didn't stop Cohn from being a raving Anti-Semite and homophobe.

Lewandowski is clearly still in campaign mode for Trump. Yet, CNN is paying for his 'opinions.' So they are basically funding the Trump campaign no matter how you want to look at it. Funding his racist, Anti-Semitic, nationalist campaign.

You have to give Huffington Post credit-they don't play the false equivalence game. Here is how they conclude every post about Trump.

"Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S."

P.S. Tom Brown directed me to this. I'm sure Donald Trump pinatas will become a-big-thing.
