I don’t know what Kellyanne did to her deranged loser of a husband, Moonface, but it must have been really bad. John Weaver lost big for Kasich (to me).

His mother was an organic chemist from the Philippines. He is half-Filipino----OK, let's see how [lying] Kellyanne will spin this statement. Guess he was being comedic.
HarlanPepper (2,008 posts) 1. Hmm. Have to admit I've never heard of that one.I had no idea Conway was Asian either. I thought it was a remark about his complexion or a weight joke.

dawg day (4,560 posts) 10. You're probably not old enough (lucky!) to have heard all the many racial slurs of the early 20th CTrump no doubt heard slurs like this from his racist father who came out of the time when the Klan had enormous power even in the North.Now that he is descending into dementia, we'll probably be hearing more terms like this from him. My senile uncle -- who had never been openly racist-- started using the most terrible terms when he was losing control of his mind. It was awful because most of the kind people at the nursing home had to put up with him calling them names.Trump's never had much in the way of inhibitions-- Noel Casler, who was a staffer on the Apprentice shows, said Trump often used racial slurs and that's why the outtake tapes are kept under wraps.But he's obviously unable to contain himself even when-- as here-- he's insulting one of his most (gag) loyal aides (KAC). That's going to harm him, but he can't stop.
