Yes, anyone saying this is a "good" thing for Trump that will win him more voters should quit punditry forever https://t.co/cEmL0FZm0X

Does anyone have a good story/list of the all-time most disgusting/deranged things Breitbart has published in the last few years?

Super excited for another day where the candidate with the CEOs of Fox News and Breitbart on his payroll continues whining about media bias

The RNC shouldn't give a dime or help in anyway a campaign run by Breitbart. It's like funding CDC run by a Witch Doctor.

I hope to never face a crisis in my life so dire that Breitbart is the answer

I ask again: where was Trump radicalized? How do you go from Clinton donor to Breitbart in 8 years because of a black president?

Another inane move by this campaign. SMH I'm telling you a toddler could make better decisions. Trump IS going to lose. #Breitbart

Listen up America- @realDonaldTrump DOES NOT WANT to be President. Hiring nutter from #Breitbart to run his campaign is a cry for help.
