In a rare display of bipartisan harmony, Democrats and Republicans joined together Monday in rejecting Donald Trump's comments about the ethnicity of a judge overseeing a class action suit against his shuttered university.

Members of both parties derided the brash billionaire for his racist remarks on how U.S. District Court Judge Gonzalo Curiel — who is presiding over an enormous fraud class action in a federal court in San Diego against Trump University — wouldn't be fair in the case due to his "Mexican heritage."

At a rally outside Trump Tower, in Midtown, more than 50 people, led by New York City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito, rallied in calling for the temperamental tycoon to take back his claims about Curiel.

Saw a scroll with Kasick condemning Don the Con and demanding that he apologize to the Judge

1. "calling for the temperamental tycoon to take back his claims"

The point of him "taking back" such statements would be what?

2. Well poor Kasick just wants to be relevant again

There's no point to anything any of them say - they all supported and encouraged his racist birther madness against President Obama.
They all know he's a woman hating racist fascist con man yet they endorsed him. Fugg the 'collective pack' (as a close friend likes to say).

3. At his point it would be the same as doubling down.

4. Could you imagine if Ds were calling on Hillary to apologize for something she said?

The press would be writing her political obit.

With Trump, hey! he's colorful and different!

5. That hypocrisy always hits, no matter who.

The Dem gets slammed, the Rethug gets a pass.

Ugh.

6. i don't trust the media for a 30 second commercial break....they are pathetic.

they, along with the gop, created this monster and now they're shocked that he's a racist.

he called Mexicans rapists and murderers way last year and they did everything possible to make him the nominee.

8. Even the Republicans know that ful-on undermining of the judiciary is dangerous in the extreme

Most of these guys are lawyers, after all.

Trump's attacks are odious and fascistic even to the odious fascists that fill the Republican caucus.
