The New York co-chair for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign said his wishes for 2017 are to see President Obama have sex with a cow and die from mad cow disease and for Michelle Obama to be “let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe.”

Carl Paladino also said he wants the outgoing President to be buried next to close advisor Valerie Jarrett, who he’d like to see convicted of treason and decapitated in prison by a “jihady (sic) cell mate who mistook (her) for being a nice person.”

As for the First Lady, Paladino — a former GOP gubernatorial candidate — said “I’d like her to return to being a male and let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe where she lives comfortably in a cave with Maxie, the gorilla.” The comments from the man, which the Daily News dubbed "Crazy Carl" during the 2010 gubernatorial campaign, were too toxic for Trump. Paladino recently met with the President-elect at Trump Towers.
“Carl’s comments are absolutely reprehensible, and they serve no place in our public discourse,” Trump’s transition team said in a statement.

Gov. Cuomo blasted his former opponent’s comments as “racist, ugly and reprehensible.”
Paladino, who has not ruled out another run for governor in 2018, “has embarrassed the good people of the state with his latest hate-filled rage,” Cuomo said in a statement.
Paladino offered the comments to ArtsVoice, a weekly Buffalo publication that asked prominent figures from the region what they want for 2017.
Hours after his comments appeared, Paladino was unapologetic, even branding his critics during a radio interview as “retarded liberal people.”
In a separate statement, the businessman who also serves as a member of the Buffalo school board, denied his comments were racist in nature.
“It has nothing to do with race,” he insisted. “That’s the typical stance of the press when they can’t otherwise defend the acts of the person being attacked.” Instead, he said, his comments were meant to be about “2 progressive elitist ingrates who have hated their country so badly and destroyed its fabric in so many respects in 8 years.”

“And yes, it’s about a little deprecating humor which America lost for a long time,” he said. “Merry Christmas and tough luck if you don’t like my answer.”

Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz, a Democrat, called on Paladino to resign from the school board. “Anyone who has these beliefs is unfit to hold public office and especially unfit to oversee the education of children,” he said.
State Board of Regents Chancellor Betty Rosa called Paladino’s comments “unacceptable for anyone who touches the lives of our children.”
It’s not the first time Paladino has raised eyebrows with vulgar comments and behavior.

During his 2010 run, he made headlines by forwarding racially and sexually offensive emails and video clips, including one that featured bestiality. Another from 2008 showed an African tribal dance that was labeled an “Obama inauguration rehearsal.”

Paladino in his statement accused the Obamas of diminishing respect for the United States across the globe and “demeaning and weakening” the country’s military. He blasted President Obama’s record as commander-in-chief and accused him of doing nothing for eight years for “black children in our urban centers.” And he said “Michelle hated America before her husband won,” he said, accusing her of then enjoying the perks of being the President’s wife.
