Controversy over Trump's tweet carrying the image of a six-pointed star similar to the Jewish Star of David became the subject of much scrutiny over the Fourth of July weekend. And Trump continues to face criticism .
In the midst of my week-long, cross-country road trip with two close friends, Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, had posted an image critical of Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee. Somewhere between Knoxville and Nashville, between the Waffle Houses and the trees, I noticed a peculiar meme on my Twitter newsfeed.
This weekend, an anti-Semitic meme was tweeted by Donald Trump . Aside from the obvious problems , this raises several questions: Nobody is mentioning this, but shouldn't a campaign either cite the source of an image, or, you know, create its own graphics? Seriously, I'm not sure if it qualifies as plagiarism, but this strikes me inappropriate for a campaign .

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is blaming the news media for the controversy surrounding an anti-Hillary Clinton tweet that appeared to depict the Star of David atop a pile of cash.

The controversy over a recent Daily Show tweet and the departure of one of the show's rising comics has put a spotlight on how few women have roles on screen and behind the camera at television's top late-night comedy shows.

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump Saturday quickly deleted a post on Twitter depicting Hillary Clinton next to an outline of a six-pointed star calling her "Most Corrupt Candidate Ever" with $100 bills floating in the background.
