In the last 16 months we have learned many things about Donald Trump. The media has reported everything he has done and said, while holding Hillary to an enormously higher standard. One thing the mainstream media will not expose is the fact that Donald Trump has revealed himself to be far less intelligent than he claims. In addition he is “cheap.” Immediately after he began receiving money from the RNC, he raised the rent on his national headquarters which is located in Trump Tower, and repaid several of his golf clubs for expenses. So much for financing your own campaign.

Trump’s younger son, Eric, was seen at an “In and Out Burger.” He was holding a paper cup which the establishment offers for water, and only water. He allegedly filled it with lemonade.

Okay, that’s childish and immature, and not a real ‘crime,’ but what it does expose is a lack of character, and intelligence.

When Eric was making a speech in North Carolina, two sisters, who are second generation Cubans, and avid Hillary Clinton Supporters, decided to attend the rally. Annie Cardelle, 23, and her sister Ceci, 17, added a small detail to the T-shirt Annie was planning to wear. She took a sharpie and wrote the following on the white shirt: “Latina contra Trump.” For you who do not speak Spanish, the phrase means ‘Latina against Trump.’

Apparently no one in the Trump campaign knew what it meant either. After Eric spoke, the sisters followed him around. They even managed to have a picture taken with Eric and his wife, Lara.

“We weren’t protesting the fact that he’s a conservative or a Republican. We were protesting their particular treatment of Hispanics and Latino immigrants in this country. It’s been almost two years of Trump continuously putting down Latinos, making us feel like we don’t belong. So, my whole thing was to go there and say, ‘I’m Latina and we’re against you because of what you say about our race.’”

I am positive that I can assume that none of Trump’s staff spoke Spanish. Ceci, the younger sister, said she was very surprised that no one understood the simple statement on Annie’s shirt. She said that it proves how little diversity there is in the Trump campaign.

Personally, I’m not surprised. Any candidate who has a white supremacist as his CEO is not likely to have anyone other that white Americans working for him or her.

I think this is terrific; Trump’s campaign definitely needed a little humor to balance the anger and hatred.

Thank you all again for reading and re-posting.
