Trump's Buddy Carl Paladino's Racist 'Raccoon' Slur: Classy! (AUDIO)

They just can't help themselves. So much for the 'kinder gentler more presidential' Trump campaign. They couldn't keep that up for 24 hours.

(SNIP)

“It doesn’t matter what kind of person is the exterminator, they want the raccoons out of the basement,” he declared.

Racoons in the basement or attic is a BIG problem all over N.Y. and even in the cities. THERE IS NOTHING AT ALL "RACIST" in that remark!

Some moronic people see "racism" everywhere and in everything; they are the ones who have the PROBLEM!

Outside of the Link being a Liberal Cesspool, what am I missing, Trump’s Friend is a Racist for saying Raccoon?

No, I didn’t click on the Link.

What are you talking about? He’s using a metaphor, not a racial slur.

(And yes, Paladino is a verbal loose cannon.)

Maybe you should consider voting for Hillary since you see “racism” everywhere like she does.

This is the kind of nonsense that needs to stop.

I heard this earlier on the news and it never even occurred to me that it was racist.

The term has been so over used that I no longer know what a true racist is

I thought the race card was limited out a long time ago.

As long as enough people can make gains by using it, it’ll never have a credit limit

Raccoons are racist?

I admit, I have a very stunted 'racial dog-whistle' antennae. I was shocked, some years ago (Jena High School), to find out that hanging a noose up had a racial connotation. Having grown up in the Southwest, I always took nooses as something associated with cattle rustlers, or other scurvy dogs. I even joked at work about hanging up nooses for people who did a bad job (or some other faux offense). I had no idea that nooses were reserved for racial messages.
Likewise I find watermelon and fried chicken (but no hot sauce please) to be special treats...

One needs an ever expanding list of words not to say.

Racoons are definitely a nuisance. Racoons fighting in the back yard make the most horrific shrieking noises that can be imagined.

The racism is from the knee-jerk left. They immediately think of specific minorities when something negative is mentioned.

If the Trump campaign were as race obsessed as the idiot that wrote this article they would complain whenever somebody's else's campaign mentioned Florida...interpreting it as a racist crack about orange skinned people. Afert all, everybody knows Florida is a place they grow oranges.

Oh wait, it’s about real raccoons, and it’s what Paladino was referring to in his comments.

You’ve been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoons. Hundreds of rabid, messy, mean raccoons have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately… You call the city, 4 different exterminators but nobody could handle the job…

But there is this one guy and he guarantees you to get rid of them, so you hire him. You don’t care if the guy smells, you don’t care if the guy swears, you don’t care if he’s an alcoholic, you don’t care how many times he’s been married, you don’t care if he voted for Obama, you don’t care if he has plumber’s crack...you simply want those raccoons gone! You want your problem fixed! He’s the guy. He’s the best. Period

Here’s why we want Trump, yes he’s an egomaniac, but we don’t care. The country is a mess because politicians lie, the Republican Party is two-faced & gutless, and illegals are everywhere. We want it all fixed!

We don’t care that Trump is crude, we don’t care that he insults people, we don’t care that he had been friendly with Hillary, we don’t care that he has changed positions, we don’t care that he’s been married 3 times, we don’t care that he fights with Megan Kelly and Rosie O’Donnell, we don’t care that he doesn’t know the name of some Muslin terrorist.

This country is weak, bankrupt, our enemies are making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegal’s, we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo and Hasid is a special group with special rights to a point where we don’t even recognize the country we were born and raised in;

“AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED” and Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want.

We’re sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, Republican Party, and sick of illegals. We just want this thing fixed.

Trump may not be a saint, but doesn’t have lobbyist money holding him, he doesn’t have political correctness restraining him, all you know is that he has been very successful, a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he’s also not a politician, he’s not a cowardly politician. And he says he’ll fix it. And we believe him because he is too much of an egotist to be proven wrong or looked at and called a liar.

Also we don’t care if the guy has bad hair.

We just want those raccoons gone.

Out of your house.

NOW.

Do the coons eat the roaches? (This being New Yawk, there must be no shortage of scurrying roaches!)

WTF is this new round of idiocy?

Not that anyone cares, but nobody in the hills even says “raccoon”.

You have coons in the barn/garden/trash.

Only a total paranoid froot loop would see racism, there.

Unless, of course, they were feverishly ~looking~ for it.

*sigh*

The ZOT was insufficient, apparently.

Coal is black, therefore, coal is racist, so his user name is anathema.

:P

“We’ll have to stop there,” NPR host David Green interrupted...”

That’s a trigger. NPR went to the safe space
