Trump Supporter: Trump Campaign

trump supporter: At the event, he pointed to a Ku Klux Klan-affiliated newspaper this week running an editorial praising Trump, and a robo call placed in Utah against him by a white nationalist Trump supporter this week, according to CTV. The Trump campaign denounced both. McMullin said at the University of Utah that the rise of Republican Donald Trump this campaign has illustrated a lingering problem in the United States with bigotry, racism and misogyny. "When we have a presidential candidate who brags about grabbing women by their private parts and brags about how he can get away with it because he famous, we still have a problem with sexism," McMullin told university students. "When one of our major parties is offering up a leader who thinks that way and speaks that way and who attacks people based on the colour of their skin or their faith... that tells us something about where we are." McMullin has a chance to win enough conservative votes in Utah to defeat Trump and become the first non-Republican to win the state in nearly a half century, polls show. White nationalist William Johnson on Wednesday cancelled his robo call, apologizing for a "mean-spirited message" that included calling McMullin a "closet homosexual." McMullin called them "baseless" lies earlier this week. Shah reasserted the campaign belief that Trump campaign was behind the "desperate whisper campaign" and called on Trump to apologize. His spokeswoman Rina Shah said in a statement Wednesday in response to the apology that the damage has already been done since the robo calls ran since Monday. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
