Man accused of using the "N" word calls a black woman a "dog"

And it is shrugged off.
Has the bar really been set that low for this POS?
I am sure the media will report how this is great for his base (which is all they seem to care about)
Rosanne lost her show over calling a black woman an ape. But all is allowed for the Asshole in Chief.

a 'bitch' but he knew he'd catch hell for that, so this is his alternative.

for both men and women, regardless of race, so they don't see it as being racist in this instance.

In fact, I read an article a few months ago that was entirely about his predilection for using the dog insult.

Trump’s favorite insult is to call someone man’s best friend.Yesterday Glenn Beck told Fox News’ Megyn Kelly that he wasn’t sure that Trump would be a better president than Hillary Clinton. Trump, as is his wont, turned to Twitter to undermine Beck’s credibility, gloating about how Beck was once “fired like a dog.”


Here is another time he used it:

This is not the first time Trump has called someone a dog on Twitter. In Trump’s world, Mac Miller, a rapper with whom he feuded over a song called “Donald Trump,” is a dog:


He called Kristin Stewart a dog:

class="excerpt"]Robert Pattinson should not take back Kristen Stewart. She cheated on him like a dog & will do it again--just watch. He can do much better!


He said Eric Erickson was fired like a dog:

Wow, great news! I hear @EWErickson of Red State was fired like a dog. If you read his tweets, you'll understand why. Just doesn't have IT!


He didn't use "dog" for Omarosa because she is black or female, but because he considers it to be a particularly insulting slur, so he uses it a lot for any person he wants to put down. (No pun intended with "put down," by the way.)

It is worst insult a man can come up with .

It is way worse than lowlife or low IQ.

This guy is so despicable he makes my skin crawl.
