Astonishingly crude and insulting remarks, from Trumps friend.

No sign of Trump disowning this awful man....speaks volumes !

[Jackdaw33]

Give it a rest. Trump is here to stay. Get over it.

Here comes the weekend ... do something constructive with your weekend

So is syphilis but it doesn't stop science trying to cure it.

[ummmm]

How are those comments racist?

[mikey4444]

I'm not sure that they are racist Ummm, but they are completely unacceptable.

His excuse was that the remarks were meant to be "humorous"

If he really thinks these sorts of things are funny, than it says more about him than I could ever say.

Thanks for addressing the issue though, instead of attacking the messenger !

[ummmm]

They are completely unacceptable. You'd think that anyone in any sort of high position would have the brain power to know when to keep their gob shut.

It's as if UKIP has come to power in the US.
Car crash waiting to happen. As long as only the right people get hurt by it

Trump is here to stay

actually, he isn't yet.

[Marshwarble]

What an absolute charmer. The spirit of the Algonquin round table is alive and well.

Idiot.

//In a statement, Trump's transition team criticized Paladino's remarks.
"Carl's comments are absolutely reprehensible, and they serve no place in our public discourse," the statement read.//

no worse than the routine brickbats from the left when they don't get their own way.

[mikey4444]

TTT....as usual !....when did the Hilary's team use these words ?

[ummmm]

I often wonder if TTT reads the same things as me.

[mikey4444]

Ummm....I think he reads the same things, but fails to understand them very well !

[Sqad]

Not the smartest comments to make.

[mikey4444]

Morning Sqad.....that is a understatement !

[mikey4444]

Could have been worse however !

morning mikey.......I'm afraid that it is the way of the world now......respect has been relegated to the few.
I remember some of the posts on AB when Margaret Thatcher died......tasteless, disrespectful and utterly uncalled for.
I suppose the media and easy access to internet forums plays a part.

Ditto jno .
