You can't make this stuff up folks. It's sheer stupidity at work here.




Trump has permanent foot in mouth disease, and he has no clue that what he's saying
is totally offensive.

As Bugs would say: "What a maroon!"

It's quite the damning commentary on our country that he's got any support whatsoever. He's an embarrassment.

If you want to be unhappy with Trump and his supporters, you could start with his TV shows. How did hundreds of hours (or is it thousands?) of Trump productions get on TV? Who watches? www.imdb.com/name/nm0874339/

Today Trump said that Hillary Clinton “Killed hundreds of thousands of people with her stupidity.” He was talking about the Middle East and Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State.

That statement will set off a week of media yapping about how many thousands of people Clinton “killed” with her policy contributions as Secretary of State. As always, Trump sets a high anchor of “hundreds of thousands” and makes everyone think some form of “Can’t be more than 50,000, tops.”

As a bonus, the country and the media will also discuss Trump’s claim she was the worst Secretary of State of all time. That gets you thinking past the sale. The “sale” is convincing you that Clinton did a bad job. If you start wondering whether she was the worst, you have already accepted the premise that she is in contention for the title.

The secret sauce with Trump’s kill shots is that they are never random. This latest one, like the ones that came before, has enough maybe-truth to it (in your mind, if not in reality) that it will stick like sap. Clinton won’t be wiping this one off with a damp rag. It’s part of her now.

I have to be honest here, sometimes I would but it was mainly for a particular celeb.
But he was no where nearly as obtuse as he is here during the campaign.....who knew!?

It is the way we have been "conditioned" and the media blitz of, what I call, stupid pet tricks. Where have I heard that before? Anywho, we have us a small crisis regarding our level of involvement in the human race.

As usual, Republican voters like their particular candidates for purely emotional reasons. There is no other reason to like Trump, who has no real ties to the Republicans. He's never held elected office as a Republican. He happily donated to Democrats. His public pronouncements over the years have been all over the map ideologically. And even while disguised as a conservative Republican he's espoused heterodox opinions on Social Security, Medicare, and foreign policy.

What is needed to replace Trump is an evangelical Christian with orthodox conservative views on immigration and economic policy. Which is to say that what's needed is Scott Walker. But Walker's campaign already crashed and burned for reasons that are mysterious even in retrospect. I guess Walker did not emotionally appeal to Republican voters. But Trump is all emotion, all the time. Trump can't turn his emotions off, or even down a little bit, and get more self-control.

For the Trump bubble to burst, many people would have to slap their foreheads and say, “Wow, he’s not a serious person! What was I thinking?”

And very few people ever do that sort of thing. Someone who has spent months supporting Trump — which means something like a third of Republicans — will go to great lengths to avoid conceding that she has been foolish.

Even if Trump does finally decline, his support is likely to flow to another overly emotional candidate. Everyone in government who knows Ted Cruz well hates him; in this environment that probably enhances his appeal.
