It's sad that videos like this with Icahn speaking has so few views but a video with anyone else (Obama, HRC, Warren, Ryan, Romney, etc.) bashing Trump will have thousands more.

this dude literally just said:

"I think it's ridiculous that people call Donald Trump racist. I mean, come in! racist? I don't even know what racist means! if we're going to be talking about that, why don't we talk about Hillary Clinton's record!"

....if you don't find humor in that, you don't understand politics, public relations, or speech lol

In Northern Ireland whenever a Catholic was shot by the police during the Troubles people assumed bias so I understand where Trump is coming from. Sometimes a persons background DOES contribute to bias. It may or may not have done so in this case. But the idea that to refer to this raw nerve is racism is just playing cynical Identity Politics.

Icahn says the obsession with the deficit is ridiculous, however that is one of Trumps main talking points, the national debt and the trade deficit that the USA has with China and Mexico.

I wonder how many favors Trump promised to give to Icahn if he gets elected
