Here is another unfortunately frequent reminder that Donald Trump is the worst:

An embattled Donald Trump urgently rallied his most visible supporters to defend his attacks on a federal judge's Mexican ancestry during a conference call on Monday in which he ordered them to question the judge's credibility and impugn reporters as racists.

"We will overcome," Trump said, according to two supporters who were on the call and requested anonymity to share their notes with Bloomberg Politics. "And I've always won and I'm going to continue to win. And that's the way it is."

There was no mention of apologizing or backing away from his widely criticized remarks about U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who is overseeing cases against the Trump University real-estate program.

When former Arizona Governor Jan Brewer interrupted the discussion to inform Trump that his own campaign had asked surrogates to stop talking about the lawsuit in an e-mail on Sunday, Trump repeatedly demanded to know who sent the memo, and immediately overruled his staff.

"Take that order and throw it the hell out," Trump said.

Told the memo was sent by Erica Freeman, a staffer who circulates information to surrogates, Trump said he didn't know her. He openly questioned how the campaign could defend itself if supporters weren't allowed to talk.

"Are there any other stupid letters that were sent to you folks?" Trump said. "That's one of the reasons I want to have this call, because you guys are getting sometimes stupid information from people that aren't so smart."

So, to recap: Trump actually said "We will overcome" in defense of his racism against Judge Curiel. And then he threw his campaign staff under the bus, saying he didn't even know one female staffer and calling additional members of his staff stupid.

He's terrific and running a tremendous campaign. Obviously.

In related news: Senator Lindsay Graham, who last month was encouraging Republican fundraisers "to get behind the party and support the party and do what we need to do to raise the funds necessary to make sure that Donald J. Trump is our next president of the United States," is now urging Republicans who endorsed Trump to rescind their endorsements, citing Trump's attacks on Judge Curiel.

"This is the most un-American thing from a politician since Joe McCarthy," Mr. Graham said. "If anybody was looking for an off-ramp, this is probably it," he added. "There'll come a time when the love of country will trump hatred of Hillary."

Welp.
