http://www.addictinginfo.org/2015/08/25/donald-trump-does-racist-asian-accent-at-rally-video/Donald Trump did a racist impression of an Asian accent at his campaign rally on Tuesday evening in Iowa.
Trump told the audience that he is a tough negotiator, and as an example he compared what he described as Jeb Bushs lethargic style to his own, more aggressive negotiating methods.
We want killers, Trump said, because when negotiating with the Chinese and Japanese, they get to the point and say, WE WANT DEAL!
Trump emulated a cartoonish Asian accent, and his supporters laughed and applauded.

(24,692 posts)groups of countries. We shall see if he thinks his 'fear the foreigner' campaign can be sold to his base who don't normally worry so much about 'white' countries. It could get interesting if he does go after those Canadian 'pansies' or the dreaded "Eye-talians".
