As if receiving the official endorsement of the Ku Klux Klan weren’t enough, our future president has yet another racist supporter: Carl Paladino.
Paladino is a co-chairman of President-elect Donald Trump’s New York campaign. He recently spoke with a Buffalo newspaper, Artvoice.
With everyone eager to bring this year to a close, they asked what he’d like to see happen in 2017.
He didn’t hold back, saying:
“Obama catches mad cow disease after being caught having relations with a Herford. He dies before his trial and is buried in a cow pasture next to Valerie Jarret, who died weeks prior, after being convicted of sedition and treason, when a Jihady cell mate mistook her for being a nice person and decapitated her.”
After throwing shade on President Barack Obama’s religion and either forgetting or ignoring that Trump is suspected of treason, he went on to berate Michelle Obama. About the gracious First Lady, he said:
“Michelle Obama. I’d like her to return to being a male and let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe where she lives comfortably in a cave with Maxie, the gorilla.”
Comparing an elegant, educated and well-spoken Black woman to a gorilla is about as racist as one can get. Suggesting she was born a man sends a resounding, sexist message to females everywhere: your only job is to look pretty.
No wonder he supported Trump, who hasn’t shied away from objectifying women and famously bragged about sexual assault.
.@ariannahuff is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision.

Michelle holds two Ivy League degrees, launched the Let’s Move Campaign to tackle childhood obesity and helped improve school lunch menus for children.
Barack brought affordable healthcare to millions of Americans, killed Osama Bin Laden and publicly supported same-sex marriage. As of last month, he had a 57% approval rating.
Paladino insists his remarks weren’t racist, saying:
“It has nothing to do with race. It’s about two progressive elitist ingrates who have hated their country so badly and destroyed its fabric in so many respects in eight years.”
In addition to wanting our current president to perish and for his wife to live with a gorilla, Paladino seemed eager about the next president by saying:
“Someone with a brain, a set of balls and a lack of fear who has enough money so as not to owe anyone anything once elected and who believes in a market economy.”
He also took a job at Lou Ciminelli, a big wig with some legal problems.
A spokeswoman for Trump, Jessica Ditto, replied to the comments by saying:
“Carl’s comments are absolutely reprehensible, and they serve no place in our public discourse.”
People took to Twitter to publicly shame Paladino.
Trump supporter Carl Palladino hopes Obama dies from 'Mad Cow Disease'. Huh, I wonder what Carl's wife has to do with it. @CarlPaladino

Sad that Trump doesn't have the class to disavow racist scum Carl Palladino's comments about @POTUS & @FLOTUS but tweets butthurt about SNL.
