Donald Trump mistook a black supporter for a protester and called him a “thug” - Vox: "“We have a protester! By the way, were you paid $1,500 to be a thug?” That was Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump addressing a black man in the crowd of a Kinston, North Carolina, rally Wednesday night, according to the Raleigh’s News & Observer. Using that slur would have been in pretty bad taste (not to mention arguably racist) in any case, but what makes it especially embarrassing for Trump is that the person he was yelling at — whom he ultimately had removed from the event — turned out to be a supporter."  'via Blog this'
