In private meeting Trump instructs Repubs on hill to only say "great" things about him

“It would great if you could say we had an unbelievable meeting. ‘Trump loves us. We love Trump.’ It’s going to be so good. Okay?” Trump said, according to a detailed account from a person who attended the meeting. “Honestly, if we could say it is great, we have a unified party, I’ll tell you what, you are going to see a difference immediately. That’s what I’m going to say.”
...
“If when we leave we could just go out and say, ‘We love Trump, he’s going to be great.’ I love you, we’re doing great. As a team, we can’t be beaten,” Trump said. “Say great things, because anything you say that’s even a little — well you know, they magnify it. Just say it’s great. You gotta say great things. Any little negativity that you have, they are going to blow it up twentyfold. You’ve got to be positive.”

What? Isn't that how all the great presidents talk?

And he loves the Constitution. He thinks it's....great! When asked about his understanding of Article 1...

“I am a constitutionalist. I am going to abide by the Constitution whether it’s number 1, number 2, number 12, number 9,” Trump responded.


There are seven Articles and he's an idiot running for president.

The Speaker after the Say I'm Great Meeting-

“I thought he did a great job engaging with our members, and I think our members appreciated it.”


Here he is with his tiny, grubby hands on our flag

He seems to be unsophisticated, his speech is simplistic and uninformed. He received a decent education, didn't he absorb anything of what he was taught? I may disagree with almost every Republican, but I sort of feel bad for them. When confronted with this clown they must have felt horrified that their nominee is a narcissistic simpleton.
