Bob Schieffer-CBS-"Racism underlying Trump's assertions""

[Cha]

>snip<

Donald Trump has moved on from the "birther" conspiracy to allege President Barack Obama didn't get good enough grades to warrant entry to Harvard Law School, an assertion that CBS News chief Washington correspondent Bob Schieffer called absurd on the "CBS Evening News" on Wednesday.

"That's just code for saying he got into law school because he's black. This is an ugly strain of racism that's running through this whole thing. We can hope that kind of comes to an end too, but we'll have to see," Schieffer said.

So unlikely! I saw this before I had to leave this afternoon and didn't have time to post but knew I would the minute I could.

jane..so much garbage coming out of the mouths of racist lying sociopaths like Trump..it feels good when it's acknowledged for what it is by someone who has a nationwide mic.

Hello, Cha! Especially Bob Schieffer, whose Face the Nation I usually can't get through without being tempted throw something at the TV. (Eric Cantor, anyone?)

wow. when it gets so blatant that even the master fence-sitting MSM pundits like Schieffer blatantly call it out ...
- well, by then, we are climbing the walls with rage, but anyway -

... good for Schieffer getting it and calling it out. and good for this country hearing someone SO mainstream, and usually in denial, HAVING to call it out!

thank you so much for posting this, Cha!

I'm still incredulous about it! And, now Bob Schieffer is unique in the m$m by calling it out.

I've read some places that pro lefties think President Obama shouldn't have released it but I think Obama knows what he's doing. Now the gloating granddragon Trump is just digging deeper and deeper.

i'm with you on that, Cha! "incredulous about it!"
it is sickening that he remains unique in it!

i agree with you that the President knows what he is doing. everyone is scrambling for reasons he shouldn't have done it, now that he has - so many of the same who were scrambling to criticize him for NOT doing it, before!

also sickening, it doesn't really matter what he does, by the "pro lefties" - i like that phrase for them, thank you! - since they live to gripe about anything he ever does.

Trump's racism couldn't be more obvious and anyone who makes excuses for Trump either owes him a bunch of money and/or is a racist themselves!

[Brewman_Jax]

It's about time they told the truth!

[NJMaverick]

can clearly see that Obama has the superior intellect. So Bob is right, it's racism at its ugliest.

[Eponine]

He's absolutely correct and I'm pleased that he came out and said that.
