President-elect Donald Trump's transition team on Friday disavowed comments made by Trump's New York campaign co-chair Carl Paladino wishing that first lady Michelle Obama would "return to being a male and let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe where she lives comfortably in a cave with Maxie, the gorilla."
That statement, along with Paladino's hope that President
Barack Obama dies of mad cow disease after "being caught having relations
with" a cow, sparked outrage on Friday from community members in Paladino's
home city of Buffalo and across the state, who charged that the comments are
racist, among other things.
Trump himself was too busy tweeting about restarting the arms race or attacking SNL or staring at his reflection to comment.
