Camping World dumps the Donald
I wish Lemonis would fix his business rather than worry what the Donald says.
I already boycott Camping World for a number of reasons,
"One of the biggest NASCAR sponsors in all of racing is pumping the brakes on Donald Trump -- trying to pull a huge awards ceremony from one of Trump's properties and urging all of NASCAR to cut ties.
TMZ Sports has learned ... Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis reached out to NASCAR head Brian France to express his anger over Trump's comments regarding Mexican immigrants.
Lemonis is a HUGE player in NASCAR -- since his company sponsors the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series -- and recently signed a MASSIVE deal with the org. extending their relationship to 2022.
In his letter to France, Lemonis writes ... "Last year, our NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Awards Ceremony was held at the Trump National Doral in Miami, and due to recent and ongoing blatantly bigoted and racist comments from Donald Trump in regards to immigrants of the United States, I would like to inform you that I will not, nor will any representative of Camping World, participate or attend in the ceremonial event if it is held at any Trump property."
He adds, "I would hope that the entire NASCAR organization would agree with my sentiments."

Trump deserves it. He is very crude, not to mention un-presidential.

Freedom of expression is a right_until it comes to the POTUS. Along with that right comes responsibility. Being PC seems to rule everything these days, and someone always gets their panties in a wad.
Mr. Trump has accepted responsibility for his words, and stands by them. Heck, he could buy Mr. Lemonus out if he wanted.

For some reason Trump is way up there in the so-called polls. They never asked us!

Love the fact that Trump cannot be itimidated by PC weenies. Just ask the family of the young lady recently mudered in San Francisco by a felon illegal that had been deported several times

The man said illegal immagrants and just said what everyone is thinking. He could buy and sell all the clowns trying to be PC. He is correct on all points. As far as camping world, they are doing everything to drive me away.

All illegals are not rapists or murderers and Donald stated. Gad, I even hate to type his name. We live 50 miles from the border. Where does he live?
Good for Camping World!

I'm certainly not a Trump fan, but he did not say "All illegals are rapists or murderers". You are letting your political stripes overcome your fair play and logic.
There are way too many truths that it's unpopular to speak.

I guess it's fair based upon knee jerk reaction to dump Camping World. OK with me.
