"Donald Trump's use of a blatantly anti-Semitic image from racist websites to promote his campaign would be disturbing enough," Mrs Clinton's campaign team told US media.

"But the fact that it's part of a pattern should give voters major cause for concern."
'Often used by sheriffs'

Mr Trump hit back in a statement, saying it was a "basic star, often used by sheriffs", and that accusations of anti-Semitism were "ridiculous".

He accused Mrs Clinton of trying to deflect attention from her husband's meeting with the US attorney-general

The swastica: "often used by Buddhists".

If Trump was running his own propaganda campaign I could believe that he had simply used a generic star shape and that it was that simple. However, he has a (presumably) multi-million dollar marketing team and the suggestion that they didn't realise that there were connotations in this image? Hmm. They either knew or they are incompetent. Take your pick.

Trump's getting more and more desperate as his campaign continues to implode and Clinton's lead continues to grow and Republicans jump ship to her side:

Trump was just caught illegally trying to get campaign contributions from foreign leaders. He's desperate as ****.

:facepalm: Trump was using the image to attack Clinton NOT the Jews. If guilty of anything OTHER than that, it is in his relying on a marketing team who do not think things through.

I was going to use this 'Cross of St George' flag as my avatar, but I'd better not now, seeing how at sometime, somewhere, some organisation of mindless racist, xenophobic facists will have used it.

Yes because what Donald Trump wanted to do was attack a non jewish woman with a a nazi message as they thought it would get votes?


:laugh2:

Well, using the Star of David has brought more attention to this than he would have got if he'd used any other shape. He's beneath contempt... but his marketing and press team are getting him column inches even he couldn't afford to buy.

You KNOW my support of the Jews AND Israel Liv, and I am not a Trump fan - you can search EVERY thread on Trump and not find a post of mine defending him, but this accusation is yet another ridiculous example - a la Farage, and anyone DARING to address 'Immigration' - of the Left being eternally Right (pun intended).

Welcome to American politics

The insult trading is bad enough in the UK, but the US have almost a year of it. It must be so draining :laugh:

The picture was created by, and originally posted by, someone on a white supremacist message board. This has been confirmed. At the very least you should be worrying about how Trump (or rather, his team) came across the image in the first place. Why would they be searching white supremacist sites to copy their propaganda? It's far from "innocent" no matter which way you paint it.

Hmm. I guess being an unwitting mouthpiece for white supremacists is better than actually creating the content.

think of it like accidently using a Daily Mail fact at a dinner party:hee:

[Liberty4eva]

The way things are i would not be surprised that had Trump used a circle people who worship the sun or moon or earth would be offended. And the right wing groups also uses crosses so let us all get offended when Christians use crosses. This is the politically correct culture we live in where everyone always looks for a reason to be offended. In all seriousness it's like a game we play and I am sick of it. I have no problem with the image. I'm mad trump deleted the tweet.

You mean; just as a lot of the 'Left Wing' in the UK are 'unwitting mouthpieces' for terrorists?

Trump is trailing badly to CLinton and it can only get worse for him. Dont know why Trump fired his old campaign team and hired this one they seem much less competent.

[y.winter]

It's like Hopkins vs. Perez minus the fun plus it's real and it's USA's future.

Trump's "marketing team" seem to specifically peruse fascist and supremacist material in order to find things that support their campaign. If the implications of that aren't obvious to you already, then there's not much point trying to make it more convincing. It speaks for itself. The VERY least of it, is that they obviously believe that these messages will resonate well with Trump supporters.

The UK left wing retweet / spread propaganda images made by terrorists? That seems like a bit of a leap but if you have any examples, I'd be interested to see them.

[JoshBB]

Erm.. yeah.. that's anti-semitic. Given the longer-than-time racist myth that Jews are corrupt, this was certainly inappropriate and with a marketing team like his, it is very unlikely that this would have been an accident.

It's disgusting. But no surprise that he's racist tbh

Whoever made the video should have dug a little deeper. The image was made and posted on a white supremacist website and (to counter the idea that they wouldn't know where it came from) - before it was tweeted by Trump's team, someone photoshopped it to add the banner at the bottom specifically to cover up the watermark that showed it was made by someone with white supremacist tendancies. But yeah, it's "just" because of the star. :hehe:

[user104658]

What is it with people posting irritating arseholes vlogs as arguments in threads, by the way? First the utter tit with the Brexit / US Independence video and now this sh*tweasle? Stop it! Use your own words, guys.

[lostalex]

The title of this post is complete bull****. Clinton didn't call him out, the press did. Why are you blaming Clinton for something the twitter sphere called him out on? and why did he delete it quickly and replace it if he didn't think it was a mistake?

[the truth]

time to outlaw these endless false accusations made by this idiot clinton

trump has posted a price sticker in the same shape on a book of frozen to expose killary clintons fake racist accusations https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
