Trump angry more Republicans haven't defended his tweets: report

We need to ask every Republican what would they have done or said to appear less racist and mean. If they avoid the challenge, they are saying who they are.

You'd think all this anger, combined with his age and obesity, would cause his vile body to shut down. Damn.
