Donald Trump’s campaign is disavowing the real estate mogul’s former butler, after he posted to Facebook Thursday that he wants President Barack Obama to be killed.

The comments, which Senecal posted on his Facebook page, were first reported by the liberal outlet Mother Jones. Meanwhile, he also referred to Hillary Clinton as “Killery Clinton” and to Bernie Sanders as a “Commie”. “Hanging, shooting – I’d prefer he’d be hung from the portico of the White House, or as I call it, the white mosque”, Senecal said in a phone interview Thursday.
The Secret Service is investigating Facebook posts made by Donald Trump’s longtime butler, Anthony Senecal, where he called for President Obama to be shot and hanged, a spokesman for the agency told BuzzFeed News.
The US Secret Service said it is aware of the matter and will conduct an “appropriate investigation”. Consider that Senecal posted shots of the Confederate flag and once addressed President Obama’s legacy, saying that “only a FEW Negroes and josh earnest will even remember him”.
When asked by Mother Jones to comment on his most recent rant, Senecal said,”I wrote that”.
“Come on America put your big boy trousers on-this election you have a choice-GET YOUR [expletive] OUT AND VOTE!!!!”
Although some of the posts, which dated to 2015, were written publicly while others were visible only to friends, Mother Jones said that Mr. Senecal had confirmed that they were his words: “I wrote that”. He also thinks Obama secretly practices the religion: “Our current “president” is a rotten filthy muzzie!!!!!” Senecal wrote on September 13, 2015, in reference to Obama. Like the fact that staffers at Mar-a-Lago judge the mood of Trump – the “king”, in Senecal’s coinage – by the color of cap that he’s wearing.
Senecal, 74, worked as a butler for Trump for 17 years before becoming the unofficial historian at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
Let the record show that there is at least one man in this world more unhinged than Donald Trump: his butler.
Trump’s campaign has been marred by his defamatory remarks against minorities in the US.

Although Trump disavowed Senecal, it’s interesting that he continues to be surrounded by racist supporters.
