The chairman of the Illinois Republican Party said credentials for one of Donald Trump's delegates have been pulled after she made a racist comment online.

Reports say Lori Gayne admits she was the author of a Facebook post made under a different name at the 2016 Republican National Convention.

Gayne posted a photo of law enforcement officials in Cleveland. The description said, "Our brave snipers just waiting for some n***** to try something. Love them."....

Did the Trump campaign event vet their delegates?  Furl to those who want to believe the GOP is racist.

You know the hoary old saying that?

Not all Muslims are terrorists,
but all terrorists are Muslims.


Trump's managed to change the public view of the GOP into that of:

Not all Republicans are racists,
but all racists are Republicans.

The environment in the country leads to this also though we are responsible for our own actions naturally.

Even Hannity was airing some extreme AA preacher the other day, some recorded sermon of his but he's got to be very obscure.

Some people see the shooting of police officers and say something inappropriate. The delegate's statement is an example, a stupid twitter post or what have you.
