His troubles with "the blondes" are well-documented, but now Donald Trump is in hot water with "the blacks" _ the cringe-worthy term he used this week to describe African-Americans, a segment of the population once warm to his potential run for U.S. president.
"I have a great relationship with the blacks," Trump said earlier this week in a radio interview.
He added that the overwhelming African-American support for U.S. President Barack Obama is "frightening." The remarks come on the heels of the mega-mouthed billionaire questioning whether Obama was born on U.S. soil.
Oops.
America's black community, in fact, recently viewed Trump favourably, an NBC poll found.
The survey was conducted, however, before Trump revealed himself to be one of the "birthers," the fringe group of Americans _ many of them Tea Party adherents _ who believe Obama is illegitimately serving as president because he wasn't born in the United States but in Kenya.
Trump, whose high-profile divorces from Ivana Trump and then Marla Maples hogged headlines in the 1990s, says he believes there "is a big possibility" Obama may have violated the Constitution since it prohibits anyone not born in the United States from serving as president.
"I want to see the birth certificate," Trump in an interview last week on NBC's "Today" show.
Officials in Hawaii have certified that Obama was born in that state, and many African-Americans consider suggestions to the contrary to be downright racist....

Exactly.
I’m sick of 96% of blacks voting for Obama because he’s half black and that NOT being called racist.
How many vastly majority black countries with free elections have voted for a white man to be their leader? Zippo.
Everyone is so damn sensitive and walking on tip toes. They call you racist. So what?
Donald is doing it right — go straight at Obama. Shut the government down on your watch, it’s on you, Barry.
Start calling him “Barry.”
Ask him to show his social security number.
Get ‘cool’ Obama mad and out of control and the facade will be off the fraud Kenyan.
I don’t understand. They don’t want us referring to them as “blacks?” They wanted, then didn’t want, to be referred to as “Negro.” Then “colored.” What’s the objection here?
Screw you, Lee-Anne Goodman, and the PC donkey you rode in on. I take great offense to you insisting that I identify myself with your phony, hyphenated term.
I'm not an African-American, and neither are 99.9% of the black people in this country, you moron. Almost NONE of us were born in Africa, and nearly all of us can trace our roots in this country back in terms of centuries.
How dare this leftist piece of trash define me?
A lie told often enough becomes truth ain't gonna work this time.
I can guarantee you that most black folks wouldn't blink if you referred to them as "black". Political correctness demands that blacks call themselves that, but the majority honestly don't give a sh!t.
The leftist moron who wrote this piece is horrified that Trump actually used the word, "black", but she's not black herself. How the hell would she know whether black folks will even react to that?
Trump’s comments about Blacks are irrelevant. All 70 million of the 15 million black voters are going to vote for their Messiah anyway. FUBU.
The feigned outrage is cute. almost as believable as Macaca.
Pray for America
They keep changing the PC name to keep everyone on their toes.
doing the BD - Black and Democrat or Barack and Dirty, it doesn’t matter. 95% of blacks begin their thought analysis on who to vote for with BD and end a nanosecond later with BD.
It is a sad and sick fact. It is disgusting.
And so the race card is pulled on trump.
Surprised it took so long.
Shove it media whore. I hope Trump chokes the lot of you with this stupidity.
Well, guess he gets a few more protest votes.
Worrying about what the “blacks” think helped get us an impudent little boy for a president.
Enough is enough.
All blacks should read the story of Nathan Bedford Forrest if they want to know the true essence of the Democrat. Complete genius in battle. Typical democrat when it came to racial issues.

Their objection isn’t “blacks” it’s “THE blacks” that’s raised their hackles.... this time.
Whatever happened to, “Say it Loud, I’m Black and I’m Proud!”
Except at the end of his life when he was born again and renounced all his previous bigotry.
Dems can’t debate this man...so they will ridicule, insult (call him crazy), and play the race card.
If Trump or any other republican could steal black votes from Obama that would be a miracle. They can’t. Period.
The author didn’t notice obama already is running a racist campaign by inciting blacks and hispanics.
And how did this article veer to the birther issue so quickly?
If elected I think Trump would serve “the blacks” well.
Let’s see.........
*the blacks* = can’t say that!!!!
*the Catholics*
*the Jews*
*the Chinese*
*the undocumented*...{PC for *the illegals*]
*the bithers*
*the right-wingers*
*the obama haters*
*the tea-baggers*
etc.
