Didn't read about this, but I will. Does it offset him refusing to rent to black people?

I don't really feel like getting into it. Watch an unbiased news channel instead of Clinton News Network and they'll tell you.
Trump did it for the money. He likes to disguise his money schemes as good faith before leaving a town in ruin.
" leading Trump to file a $100 million lawsuit"
I laugh when people ask what Clinton has accomplished. It is a sign of ignorance and simply peddling conservative media hate.

50 G.O.P. Officials Warn Donald Trump Would Put Nation’s Security ‘at Risk’

Fifty of the nation’s most senior Republican national security officials, many of them former top aides or cabinet members for President George W. Bush, have signed a letter declaring that Donald J. Trump “lacks the character, values and experience” to be president and “would put at risk our country’s national security and well-being.”
Mr. Trump, the officials warn, “would be the most reckless president in American history.”
The letter says Mr. Trump would weaken the United States’ moral authority and questions his knowledge of and belief in the Constitution. It says he has “demonstrated repeatedly that he has little understanding” of the nation’s “vital national interests, its complex diplomatic challenges, its indispensable alliances and the democratic values” on which American policy should be based. And it laments that “Mr. Trump has shown no interest in educating himself.”
“None of us will vote for Donald Trump,” the letter states, though it notes later that many Americans “have doubts about Hillary Clinton, as do many of us.”
While foreign policy elites in both parties often argue among themselves — behind closed doors, or politely in the pages of Foreign Affairs magazine — it is extraordinarily rare for them to step into the political arena so publicly and aggressively. Several former midlevel officials issued a similar if milder letter in March, during the primaries. But Monday’s letter included many senior former officials who until now have remained silent in public, even while denouncing Mr. Trump’s policies over dinners or in small Republican conclaves.

More and more are coming out and saying at the very least they're not voting for Trump and some are outright saying they'll vote for Hillary instead. It's unprecedented.
Here's something I posted a little while back in this very thread:
I also do appreciate the amount of work she's put in over the years to try to get universal healthcare. I actually believe at her core, she is a decent person who honestly does care about making life better for those who are suffering. I think she's also done a lot of things to support her goals that are questionable, but as I said in the quoted post, she's helped accomplish things that have made an impact in my family's life that I know would not have happened if it were me instead of my son, and I appreciate that.
When you get outraged by something a Hillary/Trump does, ask yourself if you'd feel the same way if your favorite candidate did the same thing.
Objective judgment has no place in this race, people see it as one evil vs one good when in fact the two are both just as dirty.
Unfortunately no one can do this. That's why politics is so stupid in general. No one cares what their candidate does.
If you see the video in context. Yes. Dangerous thing to do. Just throw that out there like that. Too much left for a nut job to interpret in that comment.

Kind of a non story but still very interesting considering the man's history, the history of his son and that clinton changed the tone of her speech. They invited this guy, placed him in a very camera happy section. not sure who's idea this was but if they are trying to reach out to the muslim community then there has to be a better face. his interview was just odd.

I saw them interview him this morning. From the interview it did not sound like he was "invited". And it is probably bait to get Trump to say something stupid.
Care to explain, because otherwise I'm going to think that went right over your head...
I do believe that it is bait for Trump and I think his dumb ass will take that bait. I also am very confident that you don't get a seat like that without being placed there, so I do believe they invited him, I also heard him directly say that he was invited by the DNC.
This might just be a huge trump troll or someone's desperation to try and reach out to Muslims. No matter what the optics are fuzzy at best..
Holy s***. I just heard him say it. Are you f***ing kidding me? That was an outright call for someone to shot her regardless of tongue and cheek. There's no way to wiggle out of this. This isn't the first time he's advocated violence against someone.
His exact quote, "... nothing you can do folks. Although the second amendment people, maybe there is." That's horrifying that he said that.
