Just so we’re clear: Our President, tonight, attempted a sort-of rape joke that was also a kind-of racist joke that then ended up not even being a joke. To a crowd that laughed and cheered. #MAGA

Trump suggests he would like to test Elizabeth Warren for Native American heritage, "but we have to do it gently because we're in the MeToo generation."

keeps him charged up for his rants.

In reality, Trump wouldn't spend five minutes with any one of those knuckle headed morons unless he could profit materially.

Color me shocked that it didn't go well. I don't know any professional comedians, but I know a lot of people who enjoy telling jokes, and each and every one of them just loves to laugh. For all his extensive time in front of a camera, I have never seen Donald Trump laugh. That means he can't tell a joke, because he doesn't know what's funny.

you are a star, they let you do anything. grab em by the pussy".

They voted for him after that explicit statement. Do you really thing they get the subtle jab at "you have to gentle with #MeToo folks".

Is rudely insulting others and lying. Nothing funny about him.

And the same jokes told over and over are wearing thin. He has no material.

Have you ever heard a Native American complain about it? It seems they would have some grounds, but I've never heard any of them gripe.

A Native American. He called her an Indian. Shows just how far off the wall he is. Crude and rude.

I imagine Native Americans would welcome her.

It's a win win for her (and America) no matter the results of the test! Even in the improbability that she fails, she'll be The Champ who pried those tax returns out of Don the Con's filthy little hands.

whats the deal about Elizabeth Warrens heritage, It make not one bit of difference about anything. But just of word of warning Mrs Warrens, don't make a deal with him he would have to get another fixer lawyer, to fix your little red wagon, and he wouldn't do it gently.I hope to never hear another trumpian talk about civility .
