Well said.

“The Last Word With Lawrence O’Donnell,” it might be unfair to make too much of a 17-year-old Donald nodding along with his dad while he said all that, because people raised by bigots sometimes grow past their roots. The problem is that Donald Trump “has shown no sense that he’s changed at all”

Cutting this Bozo way too much slack. I was raised in an extremely racist household--although not the different from a lot of white/Irish/Italian/Polish/whatever families on the old south side of Chicago. Not long ago I was talking with my sister about how ALL the "jokes" around the dinner table (or so we both recalled) were racist garbage. And when I was 17 I marched with the Chicago Freedom Movement for open housing in Marquette Park, led by Martin Luther King.

Scary as hell--I knew how insane those people were. A lot of people in the open housing campaigns did the same thing and most of them much more--including all those who weren't able to hop on the EL and turn into just another anonymous white guy, protected by the color of his skin.

Sorry, but by the time a person is 17 he knows right from wrong--unless his is a psycho like Trump who still hasn't figured it out.

tl;dr--Trump hasn't changed since he was 17 unless to get worse

I don't know if this is true or not, but "I've heard" that Donald's German dad Fred suffered injuries in a World War II Nazi concentration camp.

He accidentally fell out of his guard tower.

You'd think they'd get clued in by the fact that aliens only abduct white people.
