The 15 most offensive things that have come out of Trump’s mouth
While claiming to ‘cherish women’ and to be the ‘least racist person,’ Trump has offered up some shocking comments.
By NICK GASS 12/8/15, 10:21 PM CET Updated 12/9/15, 3:29 PM CET
Donald Trump’s outlandish statements have been the hallmark of his six-month-old rollicking presidential campaign, but the billionaire businessman has been throwing out incendiary comments about religious and ethnic minorities, women and the broader American society for years.
While Trump has consistently claimed that he is not a racist, that “I cherish women” and that he “loves Muslims,” other comments and policy proposals from both his campaign and the prior decades put the man leading national Republican polls in a different light.
Here are 15 of Trump’s most offensive comments to date:
1. The ‘total and complete shutdown’ of Muslims entering the U.S.
With the country rattled by the San Bernardino shooting in which a Muslim husband and wife massacred 14 and wounded 21 others, Trump’s came out on Monday with a doozy of a statement, calling for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on.”
While the proposal triggered condemnation from most candidates in both parties, Trump said it was necessary to protect the homeland.
“Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension. Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine,” he said in a statement released through his campaign. “Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life. If I win the election for President, we are going to Make America Great Again.”
In a telephone interview with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Tuesday, Trump summarized his message for Muslims: “We love you, we want to work with you, we want you to turn in the bad ones, we want you to practice vigilance, we know that if you know a lot, in many cases, we want you to turn in the bad ones. We all want to get along. We want to get back to a normal, peaceful life.”
2. ‘I’m a negotiator like you folks’
The previous week, Trump addressed the Republican Jewish Coalition on Dec. 3, calling himself “a negotiator like you folks,” one of many Jewish stereotypes the Manhattan real-estate mogul dropped throughout his speech.
“Is there anyone in this room who doesn’t negotiate deals?” he joked. “Probably more than any room I’ve ever spoken.” He also generated some boos for not answering whether he would support moving the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem from its current location in Tel Aviv.
“You’re not going to support me even though I’ll be the best guy for Israel,” he told the audience, remarking that he did not expect much support from them.
3. ‘the blacks’
“I have a great relationship with the blacks. I’ve always had a great relationship with the blacks,” Trump told Albany’s Talk 1300 in April 2011 as he mulled a run for the presidency at that time, which he did not ultimately pursue.
4. ‘I am the least racist person there is’
In May 2011, Trump pointed to the fact that an African American man, Randall Pinkett, won the fourth season of his NBC show “The Apprentice” as evidence that he is the “least racist person there is.”
In a telephone interview with “Fox and Friends,” Trump was asked to account for a campaign by an African American advocacy group trying to get then-“Celebrity Apprentice” contestants Lil Jon and Star Jones to condemn him for “race-baiting.”
“Well, you know, when it comes to racism and racists, I am the least racist person there is. And I think most people that know me would tell you that. I am the least racist, I’ve had great relationships,” Trump said. “In fact, Randall Pinkett won, on the as you know, on ‘The Apprentice’ a little while ago, a couple of years ago. And Randall’s been outstanding in every way. So I mean, I am the least racist person.”
5. ‘Laziness is a trait in blacks’
“I have black guys counting my money. … I hate it,” Trump told John R. O’Donnell, the former president of Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino, according O’Donnell’s account in his 1991 book “Trumped!” “The only guys I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes all day.”
Trump, according to O’Donnell, went on to say, “‘Laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that.”
In an interview with Playboy in 1999, Trump remarked that “[t]he stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true. The guy’s a f—-g loser. A f—-g loser. I brought the guy in to work for me; it turns out he didn’t know that much about what he was doing. I think I met the guy two or three times total. And this guy goes off and writes a book about me, like he knows me!”
6. ‘a well-educated black’
In an interview with NBC News in September 1989, Trump remarked, “A well-educated black has a tremendous advantage over a well-educated white in terms of the job market.”
He continued: “If I were starting off today, I would love to be a well-educated black, because I believe they do have an actual advantage.”
7. ‘They’re rapists … some, I assume, are good people’
Trump kicked off his presidential campaign on June 16 from the Trump Tower in Manhattan, and immediately touched off a furor with his comments about immigration.
“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people,” Trump said at his campaign announcement. “But I speak to border guards and they tell us what we’re getting. And it only makes common sense. It only makes common sense. They’re sending us not the right people. It’s coming from more than Mexico. It’s coming from all over South and Latin America, and it’s coming probably— probably— from the Middle East. But we don’t know. Because we have no protection and we have no competence, we don’t know what’s happening. And it’s got to stop and it’s got to stop fast.”
8. ‘I have thousands of Hispanics that work for me’
Addressing news of a coalition of Hispanic organizations protesting his hosting appearance on “Saturday Night Live,” Trump was frank.
“I’m leading in the polls with the Hispanics. I mean, you look at Nevada, I’m leading in the polls with the Hispanics because I produce jobs, and they know it. I have thousands of Hispanics that work for me, my relationships to Hispanics is better than those groups,” he told “Fox and Friends” in an Oct. 19 interview. “Those groups are looking to fundraise; I know all about those groups.”
9. No bones about it
Following blowback from the comments regarding Mexican immigrants and rapists, Trump sought to tamp down the controversy with comments to “Entertainment Tonight” on July 1.
“I don’t have a racist bone in my body,” Trump told the show. “The fact that I want a strong border and the fact that I don’t want illegal immigrants pouring into this country, that doesn’t make me a racist, it means I love this country and I want to save this country.”
10. ‘the Japs’
Speaking to Time magazine for a profile published in January 1989, Trump was asked to give an estimate of his total wealth.
“Who the f knows? I mean, really, who knows how much the Japs will pay for Manhattan property these days?” he asked in response, using a racial slur for the Japanese.

Here are 15 of Trump’s most offensive comments to date:
One thing I know for sure is "Lube" did not write this. Good job cutting and pasting Lube. Come up front and get a gold star.
1. The ‘total and complete shutdown’ of Muslims entering the U.S.
Temporarily, until we can properly screen.
2. ‘I’m a negotiator like you folks’
The official mission statement of the RJC is to foster and enhance ties between the American Jewish community and Republican decision makers in the United States. In other words, INFLUENCE OR NEGOTIATE WITH REPUBLICAN DECISION MAKERS.
3. ‘the blacks’
Would you prefer he have a bad relationship with the blacks? How is your relationship with Blacks, Whites, Asians?
4. ‘I am the least racist person there is’
So saying, "I am the least racist person there is" makes him a racist?
Read the article in the link OCG posted.
5. ‘Laziness is a trait in blacks’
Hear say, not worthy of a response.
6. ‘a well-educated black’
This is true. There are many programs out there to help minorities in business. Including special financing, college admission, and preferential treatment in securing government contracts. It does not make you a racist to state facts.
7. ‘They’re rapists … some, I assume, are good people’
8. ‘I have thousands of Hispanics that work for me’
What the fuck is your point on 7 and 8? They don't send their best. There best come in legally. He has 1000's of Hispanics working for him, and...?
9. No bones about it
And?
10. ‘the Japs’
27 years ago:
Japs were Japs, not Japanese.
Handicapped were Handicapped, not Special, Disabled.
Mexicans were Mexicans, not Hispanic.
Illegals were Illegals, not Undocumented Workers.
Whores were Whores, not Escorts
Blacks were Blacks, not African Americans.
Waitresses were Waitresses, not Food Servers.
Then the word police came along..
27 years from now it is possible all those words will again be acceptable and the words we use today will not.

Look how Trump has already divided the party he's making a mockery of the party and you are either too blind or dumb or perhaps both to see it for yourself.
Since I assume you are a fairly elderly fellow were you a Barry Golfwater supporter back in yester year ? You are just too ashamed or have too much pride to admit that we made a colossal mistake in electing trump to represent the GOP. From day one I thought he was a joke and a sideshow attraction just like Ben Carson and like Herman Cain in 2012. Entertaining but no real shot of becoming President. I can't believe our party was duped into nominating the jack ass.

^ you're quite opinionated for someone that has made it his life's work to sit on the sidelines with meaningless votes .Meaningless? You mean I failed to vote for one of the Establishment choices offered to me? That I did not support a $29 trillion debt? That I did not support numerous meaningless and illegal wars? That I did not support efforts by both parties to limit our freedom, debase our money, and turn our country into a police state? Because that is what both political parties stand for. When the two major political parties' candidates are owned by the same banks and corporations, you are wasting your vote if choose one of them.

If someone other than Hillary Clinton were the Democrat nominee, I'd happily support Gary Johnson. We just can't make the mistake of electing Hillary. The consequences are too great. There is not enough time before the election to make the case that a Libertarian can win. Defeating Hillary is Priority I.

I've been around this before, back when you went by WeeEndowed. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuyI don't know what the hell you are talking about or what kind of name is weeendowed or is that a typo?

You are really off your rocker.
Back to the topic as someone has mentioned you really have been voting for losers pretty much all your life and somehow you think Trump is the savior? Whom are you kidding?
You are living in a fantasy world and yep I agree Clinton isn't trust worthy but we are talking about politics. What canididate do you know that has a squeaky clean record and never got their hands dirty? Politics is a dirty game and so is business. I am pretty sure trump has made some dirty back room deals and screwed over a lot of people. I am not saying it's right or fair but it's politics pal.
If you truly been in the military you know war is a very dirty reality. The average American probably thinks during war if we capture the enemy we bathe and feed them 3 times a day and let them call home to their loved ones. It's all bullshit and it's part of life.
