Donald Trump seemingly
continues to derail his own campaign train with his latest diatribe
against a sitting federal judge, who is sitting on the case against
Trump and the charges of fraud over Trump University. Forget about the
issues and all the other trivia associated with the upcoming trial. The
trial is personal to Donald Trump and has nothing to do with his bid
for the GOP presidential nomination and the inevitable match up with
Hillary Clinton, the most corrupt woman in American political history.
Trump should have never brought up the subject, since it smacks of
racism to demand a judge be recused from a case simply because of his
ethnic heritage, without one shred of evidence pointing to judicial bias
by the judge
Trump
has publicly called the judge out as being biased against Trump because
the judge has an Hispanic surname and is of Mexican heritage, although
he, the judge, was born in Indiana. It was the judge's parents who
were immigrants to the United States from Mexico, but somehow Trump has
called for the judge's recusal from the Trump U. case for some imagined
bias on the judge's part. It's interesting to note that none of Trump's
lawyers have called for the judge to recuse himself from the case.
As
has been noted before, when someone crosses Trump, there will be
retribution to pay and judge Gonzalo Curiel is the latest victim to
receive Trump's wrath. When Trump feels he has been wronged he will
seek, by any means, to destroy the object of his enmity. Judge Curiel
is no different. Sadly, Trump will continue to beat this drum of bias
falsely based upon the race/ethnicity of Judge Curiel.

Trump
has placed many of his political supporters in a very precarious
position of having to deny Trump's charge of racial bias, while denying
that Trump is a racist in a presidential campaign that will need all the
Hispanic American votes possible in order to win the presidential
election this November 8th.
Trump's
behavior is not a one off aberration. Since Trump entered the GOP
circus marathon, he has managed to alienate just about every voting
demographic group possible, from Hispanics to Muslims to women to
politicians he will have to rely upon for their political support, if he
expects to win the presidency.
Perhaps
Trump's phenomenal campaign style will be able to sustain such hateful
vitriol with all the accompanying negative consequences from denigrating
Judge Curiel. I'm beginning to wonder if that is a possibility, which
then raises the question of what kind of people actually support Trump
and his highly questionable judgment and temperament to be president.
I
no longer expect Donald Trump to ever demonstrate presidential
temperament and judgment. I fully believe that Trump's cognitive and
personality disorders are too firmly engrained within his narcissist
personality to be able to change. What we see in Trump is the real
person, a liar and amoral individual, not exactly engaging attributes
for someone seeking to become the president of the most powerful country
in the world.
