Jeffrey Lord represents

Cable news has been flooded with coverage of Donald Trump's racist attacks on Judge Curiel, the judge in the civil lawsuit against Trump University. Many Republican leaders have spoken out against Trump's racism, from Speaker Paul Ryan to Newt Gingrich to Karl Rove to the women of Outnumbered. Surfing the cable news dial, you couldn't find anyone that believed Donald Trump was justified in claiming that the judge wouldn't "treat him fairly" because of his Mexican heritage.

But last night during CNN's Super Tuesday coverage, Trump supporter and frequent CNN analyst Jeffrey Lord took over a segment about the criticisms Trump faced.
It began with an innocent enough question from Michael Smerconish who said,
"..there's a question that Donald Trump can't answer which is, if he believes that this gentleman (Judge Curiel) is biased against him, why hasn't his legal team gone to court, followed the process and filed a recusal motion? The lawyers won't touch it and he has no response to that question." 

That's as straightforward a question on Trump's bias claims that anyone could make. If he is so unhappy and feels unfairly victimized by a biased judge, then why don't Trump's lawyers make a trial motion to remove him? 

Jeffrey Lord ignored the question entirely and started dreaming aloud about how Trump would put his stamp on the Republican party like Ronald Reagan did. No, he really did.
And then he veered deeper into crazy town by claiming that many conservatives and the Republican party have... 

"sold out on race. They have bought into this whole notion of identity politics. It's bad."
So it's not Trump who is bad for smearing a judge, who was born in America, for being unfit to try his case because of his Mexican heritage, but it's the entire Republican establishment and grassroots for acknowledging his racism.
