4. She is great!

She should be on more than she is since she is a very well spoken, but blunt, progressive. She puts up with very little idiocracy from the right!

5. Do Presidents usually ask for call in response in their rallies?

45: "Who's gonna pay for the wall?"
CROWD: "MRRF...N CUHH"
45: "Who's gonna pay for the wall?"
CROWD: "MUX-UH-CUHHHH"

I was expecting the next line to be:

45:"I say 'Mexi', you say 'co!' Mexi!"
CROWD: "CUUUUHHHH"

10. He has been prompting people for applause from day one - even when he addressed congress it was obv.

Ducking spellcheck man. I did NOT type promoting.
I typed prompting. And fucking! Ugh.

6. They're saying that the whole build a wall and make mexico pay for it thing was

purely a rhetorical device meant to demonstrate that trump was going to be tough on the southern border, and that even most trump voters didn't really believe he was going to actually build a wall...I could not disagree more. Most of the trump voters I've run across want a real and actual wall, and TOTALLY believed he'd build it! I think they're giving trump voters too muc credit. They lack the imagination required to understand rhetoric or metaphor. They understood he'd build a wall, and that's what they're expecting.

11. They're giving them cover to excuse what a LOSER he is.... it's gross, how much they cater to his

Base.
