http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/gop-primaries/263833-trump-calls-on-gop-to-boot-low-polling-candidatesRead this article. Holy fuck, I know this dickweed has a limited vocabulary but this is ridiculous. Look at the number of words and sentences he repeats over and over again.
"zero for months"
"30 seconds"
"she should not be allowed to run" (THREE TIMES!)
"so sad" (again, three times)
"jealous as hell"
He could give Dubya a run for his money in terms of poor speaking abilities. They're both horrendous communicators but in entirely different ways.

(50,986 posts)what he says and what he says seeks to limit other people's citizenship.
He wants to ban Muslims from immigrating. He wants to ban nuance from political discourse, too.
A Stone Age mentality blustering his way through the modern world.

(32,704 posts)He is an entertainer, stand up comedian, etc. Honestly, I don't want our nominee to face him because he's too unhinged and plays by a different set of rules.

gratuitous
(82,849 posts)The Scots were having a hearing about siting a wind farm off their coast, which just happened to be close to a golf course Donald Trump owned or had his name associated with. Trump was testifying against it, and using his usual array of dazzling rhetorical points to claim that the wind farm would be the worst thing ever, and it would absolutely ruin his magnificent, world-class golf course. When one of the moderators asked him who his expert was, Trump bellowed that he was his expert. The room broke up laughing.
Americans should get used to that if they're serious about electing this buffoon.
