HOWL! Donald is saying he likes the old days when generals communicated by courier.

Oh, sweet Jesus. THIS is his solution to hacking. He's going on and on about McArthur and couriers.


I suppose he's never heard of Code Talkers and radio transmissions.

Now he's flirting with a woman in the audience, and now saying he doesn't like the fire marshals. He's nuts. He's utterly off the rails.

Okay, no more threads. Although it's tempting.

When demagogues like Trump were tarred, feathered and run out of town on rails.
But these days we have something even better.... our vote.
