Governor Fallin: Birther Trump is a “Racial Healer”

Written by SK Ashby

This may be a bit of a shock to those of us who know Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump as an unrepentant birther and rabid xenophobe.

Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin appeared on CNN over the weekend where she said Trump is running as a "racial healer."

FALIN: "I think he is trying to campaign as a racial healer. I think that has been part of his message. If you watch what he’s said this week, he talks abut how devestating this was for Dallas, how we need to respect our law enforcement, how we need to pray for those who were killed and those who were injured."

To say that he's "trying" to run as a racial healer manages to be slightly worse than simply claiming he's running as a healer

If he's "trying" to, I can't imagine what his campaign would look like if he wasn't trying. This is a man who launched his campaign by declaring that immigrants are mostly criminals and rapists.

The cornerstone of Trump's entire platform is building a racially-divisive border wall on our southern border. He has called for banning Muslims from entering the country. He has the support of Sheriff Joe Arpaio. He's the number one candidate for white nationalists and supremacists.

Are Trump's birth certificate investigators still in Hawaii?
