The teleprompters have joined the microphones in opposing Trump!

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/301144-trump-breaks-his-teleprompter

Donald Trump dismantled his teleprompter at a Friday night rally in North Carolina, and told the audience he wouldn't pay the company that provided the faulty equipment.

"Here's the way government works — so the telemproter is a bummer, it doesn't work. That means the company doing the telepromoter is in the back, that means they didn't do a good job. So I won't pay them," Trump said to cheers in Charlotte.


I just ran out of popcorn. Does anyone have any to spare?

Therefore malfunctioning teleprompters will become a part of the international conspiracy.

manufacturers of these products. She is working in concert with them..it's so obvious.

That filthy sewage slug admitted to not paying the company and that was met with cheers? He is just the epitome of a consummate dirtbag
