It's going to be hard to work with someone this delusional.

In addition to winning the Electoral College in a landslide, I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally

Also, some asswipe did this, but got suspended. Lots of other nasty tweets in response, but mostly people who agree

Sorry the picture is so large! LOL - but they got suspended pretty fast, so that's good

Yeah, Jesus would most certainly post that same kind of shitty, insulting, intolerant, mean-spirited, and jingoistic crap if He were here now... That was exactly what His teachings were all about, weren't they.

The guy was born in Texas. So, he is a native born american. Thus, he doesn't even belong "south of the border"! He's just as american as the idiot who wrote that tweet.

I can't believe the behavior I'm seeing! Bullying and loutish and mean-spirited. Graceful in "victory" they are NOT!!! I put that in quotes because I will go to my grave reminding everyone that trump LOST the popular vote, and lost it by A LOT.

Whenever I see or hear or read about somebody like that, I keep asking myself - "would you raise your kid that way? Would you want your kid to act that way or treat people that way?"
