and made a few statements like this, it would be a National emergency and the doctors would be called immediately.
The bar of normalcy is so fucking low for this idiot, it's unbelievable!

3. Maybe his uncle could tell us. He was a great professor and scientist, after all.

Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart—you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you're a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

4. seriously, why stop at trump's madness? why not just hand over the country to an actual madman?

i mean, the media's goal is to sell ad time by attracting eyeballs, and for that they need a president that people can't take their eyes off. rather like a train wreck.

well, why stop at mere narcissism? why not just find someone who's actually bipolar, paranoid schizophrenic with delusions and give him the nuclear football.

that's sell some damn newspapers! people will be glued to the tv!

is he on his meds today? did he declare war on broccoli? news at eleven!

5. I am quite sure he is not a 10 year old.

Most 10 yer olds are capable of more serious thought and much more self -control than this jackass.

6. He actually said something quite sinister in that last jumble.

He speaks of how the internet is used to manipulate people, then points out that CNN is doing the same thing with their big poll saying he's winning. He really isn't winning and he knows it, but hey - it's good psychology because people will think he is.

7. Just like all the speculation on the up-coming debates!

The pundits are saying the bar is so low for this sociopathic moron, that if he somehow manages to speak half-way like a normal person, doesn't have an incoherent, spitting, blabbering meltdown, he can WIN! fuck...

12. He sure has the thinking of someone that age.

Actually, I'm being unfair to the 10 year old. Donald's thinking is more in the line of a bratty 3 year old toddler.

and she would never speak like this. If she did, I would have to provide her with remedial tutoring.
