Who died and appointed Donald Trump king?

[Punkingal]

Saw on MSNBC a few minutes ago that Trump will get his way about the debates...apparently he is not going along with the changes they agreed on Sunday night. He wants two hour restriction, etc. Mark Halperin said he will absolutely get everything he wants, because they can't have debates without him.

How in the world did he get so much power?

1. He understands the medium

He had his own TV show, a "reality" show, in fact. He understands what appeals to the people who program the magic glowing box.

2. Trump would probably tell you Jesus. nt.

3. The RNC

4. *chuckle*....

[Fritz Walter]

7. This must be an older cartoon

The correctly-labeled "Bush" plane is way too intact to accurately represent the state of that particular clown's campaign. Should be missing much of a wing and have smoke pouring out of the tail section.

Good image though. Very good!

5. If we are honest, we will admit Donald Trump is America.

Greedy, selfish, lying, corrupt, asshole.

Made his fortune using muscle to force people out of their homes.

Much of America thinks he is the perfect man.

I dont blame a rabid dog for biting me, I dont blame Trump for being the piece of shit he is.

I blame... ...

8. You know, I never thought about it that way, but it's true. He is the personification

of who we are as a country. Loud, obnoxious, showy, belligerent, always right, plus the other qualities that you mentioned above.

9. Plus, he had the kind of success all Americans think they're going to get someday.

"Born on third base, thinks he hit a triple".

6. he's the king of reality teevee shows...although republicans have no concept of reality

it's all about ratings....politics is just a by-product

[WillowTree]

10. It's show biz and he's the most entertaining show in town.

Ratings, Baby!

12. Like Napoleon. He auto-crowned himself.

And just like Nappy, everone nodded and went along,

13. I know he was asking to get paid

so he could give the money to a veteran charity. Did they agree to that?

[Punkingal]

14. Not yet, but they will according to Halperin.

15. Apparently...

it's that thing on top of his head.

16. Emporer

Your post reminded me of this (@1:39):

Melania: And when Donald is emporer --
Wolf: *President
Melania: we will build a gold castle.

17. What did you expect from the Republicans? A fair process to support voters weighing key issues?

It's a pissing contest. Trump is winning because he knows how to pee the most on the biggest tree. Ha ha, make that "biggest bush." By throwing the biggest temper tantrum and whining louder than any other primate in the jungle, he gets to be the big daddy gorilla.
