Donald Trump goes racist by accusing Florida Democratic gubernatorial nominee Andrew Gillum of “allowing crime to flourish” in Tallahassee after his stunning upset over Gwen Graham last night. Of course, Trump is lying….

Gillum immediately clapped back: “What our state and country needs is decency, hope, and leadership. If you agree, join us at http://AndrewGillum.com . Also, @ me next time, @realDonaldTrump.”
Donald Trump tried the same line when Stacey Abrams beat Stacey Evans to become the Georgia Democratic gubernatorial nominee. He accused Abrams of being an “open border, crime loving” opponent for Republican Brian Kemp. You know, “crime loving” is code for black.
Congratulations to Brian Kemp on your very big win in Georgia last night. Wow, 69-30, those are big numbers. Now go win against the open border, crime loving opponent that the Democrats have given you. She is weak on Vets, the Military and the 2nd Amendment. Win!

What Donald Trump fails to realize is that he is energizing Democrats and independents with these racist attacks. He should have learned from the shellacking Republican Ed Gillespie took from Ralph Northam in the Virginia governor’s race. Or when he backed accused child molester in the Alabama Senate race, which led to Democrat Doug Jones winning the seat in a huge upset.
