Trump: Paid D.C. protesters are now ready to REALLY protest because they haven't gotten their checks

The paid D.C. protesters are now ready to REALLY protest because they haven’t gotten their checks - in other words, they weren’t paid! Screamers in Congress, and outside, were far too obvious - less professional than anticipated by those paying (or not paying) the bills!

Where the hell does he get his ideas? There's no logic, thought or factual basis for almost everything he says.

Trump is an idiot.

to appear at rallies in the past, he assumes the other side does the same sort of thing. He probably also assumes that other people don't pay the people they hire. Once again, he's talking about himself.

a babbling senile old bat.

he has to delude himself about protesters because he can't make him self believe anyone would would protest out of shear conviction.

This is typical of people with delusions of grandeur.

"We aren't paid."
"They're mad because they didn't get paid!."

So... if they aren't getting paid doesn't that mean they're not paid protesters?

Of course, Spanky never pays anybody who works for him (did the claqueurs he hired through Craigslist to come and applaud at his rallies ever get their checks?), so he's probably just projecting again.

He was sitting on his shitter wondering how he could tweet that women are whore's. This is what he came up with. Sick idiot.
