In a telephone interview Donald Trump was asked by CNN's black journalist Don Lemon if black lives mattered. Trump avoided answering the question but noted that police must do their job. Trump voiced his disfavor that the US governments deal with Iran was bad because it states that the US government would have to defend Iran if attacked.

ISRAEL MATTERS but BLACK LIVES DON'T

There is a huge hump on the road for Donald Trump in his bid to become the president of the United States. In a recorded telephone interview with CNN's Don Lemon on Tuesday September 1 (USA time) Lemon asked Trump if black lives mattered.

Trump responded to this hot button question that he didn't know that and he couldn't answer the question. He went on to say that the police have to do their jobs and that the people want them to do their jobs.

In sidestepping a question that involves race and the ongoing police brutality against people of color Trump was quick to disclose his position on Israel.

Trump made a point that he was not in favor of the Iran deal that the US government made with that Arab nation. His major problem with the agreement was that the US government would have to protect Iran if attacked. He vehemently noted that it would mean if Israel attacks Iran then the US government is obligated to attack Israel.

One can say what they want regarding this topic but at the same time it would be prudent to consider the war crimes and theft of Palestinian land Israel has committed for the past 70 years with the US governments blessing, funding and assistance.

Also on September 1, RT News showed a MASKED young Israeli soldier applying a CHOKE HOLD on a 12-year-old Palestinian boy in the West Bank. The boy's crime was THROWING STONES at the soldier.

The child's relatives which included other children his age were seen coming to his rescue by hitting and slapping the soldier with their fists and hands on his head urging him to release the child. In the process they pulled off the Israeli soldiers mask. The outcome was not clear as the video failed to show the boy being released.

The point is why would Trump endorse a state that conducts themselves in this manner? Repeatedly they have murdered children for THROWING STONES. Is it difficult to understand why the Palestinian people are angry that the Jews have stolen their land and treat them as prisoners in their own land? Why would Trump endorse this RACIST STATE that describes Palestinians as Arab sand niggers?

Trump made a point of insisting that he would not accept donations from special interest groups. He pointed out that millionaire opponent Jeb Bush has accepted $100 million in donations which are largely from special interest groups.

Trump noted that he will accept small donations. He started out by stating small numbers as low as $5 and $7. At the tail end on that point of the conversation with Lemon he raised the ante to admitting that he would accept donations from $100 to $300. His rationale is that it comes from people that want change and not special interest groups that want favors.

He pointed out that once a political candidate accepts money from special interest groups that they are bought and sold (out) and that they owed something to those that funded them.

His conversation with Lemon, who is a black man, leaves a lot to be desired since he sidestepped the issue of do black lives matter. Lemon failed to follow up and press Trump on the issue.

Trumps pro Israeli stance is understandable since he is a wealthy businessman and most likely does business with companies that have interests in Israel. This is another hot button topic that should be pressed on by the media but as usual…. AVOIDED. In journalism this practice is referred to as self censorship.

Trump's daughter Ivanka is married to a Jew thus it raises the question, IS THAT WHY ISRAEL MATTERS to Trump and BLACK LIVES DON'T?

Trump's daughter, Ivanka Trumps' Jewish husband Jared Kushner's father Charles Kushner is a major donor to the Democratic Party, most notably to former New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevey.

In 2005, following an investigation by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey, Kushner was convicted of making illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion and witness tampering and was sentenced to two years in prison. He has since been released.

Kushner's parents were Joseph and Rae Kushner, who were Holocaust survivors and that apparently ties in Trump with his Israeli connection and opinions. AGREE OR NOT?
