I know who Trump reminds me of --
Joe McCarthy. With both of them, it's always "I heard" or "they say" or "rumors are." And that blowhard ended up doing a lot of damage.

Trump had the majority of Americans thinking that maybe Obama wasn't a citizen. Are we sure he couldn't do some serious damage, if he keeps going? I'm glad he didn't manage to get a toe-hold in as a Senator.

1. Not if President Obama keeps up a sustained thrashing of him
when he pops his head up. He is so thinned skinned that he will blow his stack.

3. I have a live one on Facebook. She slurps up every drop of right-wing slop.
I made the point that as a young man Obama's birth certificate was good enough to get him his passport. She countered with, "it supposedly was not a U.S. passport." Evidently parroting this long ago debunked story.

My girlfriend comes up with these occasionally. Lately, the latest news is, if you want to buy American gas, buy Mirrastar gas. Without even looking for anything to back it up, I explained to her how the gas distribution works. If that were true you wouldn't need to find out about it in a email. Walmart would promote the living shit out of that! For a smart woman, she can sure swallow the bagger stuff sometimes.

9. No but close. Cartman is suppose to be an 8 year old Archie Bunker.

6. That ploy is so old, I'm surprised it works...
"'I've heard'...Donald Trump has wild orgies where kittens are slaughtered and puppies ate catapulted into the ocean by the bucketful; he hasn't been near a woman since Ivana caught him with Daisy the goat...now I'm not saying it's true, but 'some say', this is the honest truth."

What a pathetic excuse for a human being...:eyes:

8. You're getting warmer. Roy Cohn, McCarthy's henchman, was one of Trump's mentors.
