Related: About this forumO'Malley Tells Off No Labels
Trump accepts No Labels prize, as OMalley calls him racist, fascistBut O'Malley, who also spoke onscreen, got his loudest applause when he asked what No Labels was doing, exactly, by lending its brand to Trump.
'When Donald Trump says all immigrants are rapists and criminals, that's not being a problem solver," O'Malley said. "There are other adjectives for that one of them being racist. When he calls for ID badges for Muslims, that's not being a problem solver. Thats called making a fascist appeal. I would encourage you not to dumb down this label."
Good for you, Gov. O'Malley!

This is the "Democrat" Obama picked to whip up support for the TPP.

would heap praise towards one of the most controversial and polarizing political figures. They're a farce, and so is Lieberman.
