No disrespect on your post PO 1 William Nagel, but there is something I found interesting in this article, and if you do not read it through to the end you will miss it.

Wright was the employee that was terminated, but the Trump Institute was just a company who bought Trumps name for their scheme (and it was apparantly a crooked organization).

At the end, Mr. Wright himself said it was not Trumps responsibility, so he had no issue with Trump, just the NGC which ran it.

Mr. Wright then stated he is hoping for the opportunity to vote for Trump.

The interesting thing is not the article to me, but the editors notes. Here is the exact wording:

"Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S."

The editor goes out on a pretty big ledge for libel on that comment.

Here's my point:

I'm not a huge Trump fan, but I am tired of these websites and news stations taking stories out of context for sensationalism.

This headline should have read "Former NCG Employee FIRED For His Military Service."

It's not just Trump which it happens to, and we as a society should be just about fed up with news stations giving you an opinion instead of the facts.

Just wanted to get that out there, because the victim specifically stated he didn't blame Trump.

Now for the obvious question that will be on your mind but will never know the answer to: Did Trump pay Mr. Wright to say this? LOL
