It's not just a Latino judge -- Donald Trump says a Muslim judge might be biased against him, too.

Eric Bradner
June 5, 2016

The presumptive GOP nominee was asked Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation" if a Muslim judge also would treat him unfairly due to his proposal to ban Muslims from entering the United States.

"It's possible, yes," Trump said. "Yes. That would be possible, absolutely."

Trump is already under fire for his assertion that the Mexican parentage of Judge Gonzalo Curiel has colored his rulings in lawsuits against Trump's business school, given Trump's claim he'll build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.

Wouldn't a white guy be biased for him? We can't have that either. Oh well I guess we can't prosecute him after all. In actuality you can see what the beady-eyed Trump is thinking, "Because that's how I'd be if the shoe was on the other foot!" Yep, he'd be as racist as all Hell!

racism and expects a pass on the discussion. He is a fugging ignorant, racist lying scumbag on heroin - steroids are too mild. Words and concepts have real meaning. This celebration of ignorance has to stop.
Check the interview with Jake Tapper.
