\"GOPRacism\"Donald is not entirely alone in his narcissistic, self-reinforcing bubble. And he can’t be everywhere at once. So, he has his minions and sycophants to help make his bizarre case to the world.<\/p>\n

One of these mouthpieces is a helmethead by the name of Jeffrey Lord, who went on CNN to make the most specious of claims about the KKK in a discussion with Van Jones.  The utterly reasonable and ever sane Jones did nothing but speak sense, patiently explaining to Lord that the KKK is a terrorist organization that kills people on the basis of their race, and Donald Trump, proud anti-terrorist that he is, ought to acknowledge that.<\/p>\n
