The guy is such a joke. I'll never understand what these people like about him.

If he becomes their nominee, we damn well better work our butts off for ours. Whoever he or she may be... Yikes!

The ears that take this stuff in at his rallies keep it in and let it swirl thru their tiny brains.
Your normal ears immediately reject this kind of garbage.
Different sets of ears crave different types of words.

About 6 times...that is why he doesn't need a teleprompter, as it gives him time to make up the next line. He also doesn't bore us with details like how his programs are going to work, he just brags like a 3 year old that it's easy for him, like shit canning "ObamaCare" and easily replacing it without one detail. He also spent considerable time trashing other republican candidates and Hillary. He was pathetic and also frightenly effective. I'm glad the election is more than 11 months away so he can sink into a weird footnote of history...like Herman Cann.

Isn't he the best? Gosh, I may be wrong, but I always thought these types of things were a lot shorter than that.
