    Seems to be true. The fetus figures are supplied by Heritage House, a pro-life group and have been spotted at other events, namely something called the Jesus Camp.

    Apparently they only make white aborted fetuses. LMAO

    Yeah, really. It's going to be a boring election year. I'll still go after Hillary because she is absolutely horrible, but so is Trump. I will say that there is no question the media is going after Trump more aggressively. But he's also putting softballs on a tee for them.

    On Sunday Hillary once again lied to the American people about her emails and insulted the mother of a slain Benghazi official by implying that she's a liar. Media could be all over that, but instead Trump has to go barf all over the place about the Khan's and give the media an easy out.
    thank you weso1!

    I really think Trump doesn't want to win, but just finish close enough to blame the media and the system, which he is already doing.

    There is a story out there about Trump calling a major PR person connected with him in the spring of '15 and telling this person that he was gonna run for President but wanted to finish 2nd (in the R nomination, I assume). If this is true, and I can't imagine why it wouldn't be, it would explain everything that has followed.

    Trump's latest actions are not from a man really trying to win - Insulting the fire chief, suddenly praising Obama in a major interview, bashing the Gold Star family, lying about the NFL, and even hinting that he won't debate Hillary. He still refuses to release his tax info or create an organized campaign machine, etc. He doesn't want to win, just to make a lot of noise for himself. The idea of actually winning probably scares him to death.

    So far, he's played the American people like a violin. His only miscalculation so far is that the Republican candidates were more inept that he thought.

    I honestly just think Trump is an idiot. But I guess there is the chance that he's an elite 4d chess player.

    A decent checkers player is enough to fool the forty % of the electorate who believe Fox News. It would take less than 48 hrs to convince them that Hillary killed JFK.

    Hillary has been taken pillory-to-post throughout the campaign on a variety of things, but particularly the e-mail scandal. There was constant coverage of that. There was ample coverage of the DNC hack and how that made her and her allies look. During the primary season, every charge made by Sanders elicited an investigative piece from the press. And lest we forget: Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi.

    It's not Hillary's fault that Trump manages to say something particularly odd (and sometimes stupid) when he opens his mouth. It just hasn't stuck until now due to the novelty of his candidacy.

    I somewhat agree with Runnin in that I don't know how badly Trump really wants to win. I saw the same thing with Ventura in Minnesota. I always believed he wanted to get close enough to legitimize his stance as a critic without having to get into the messy business of governing. Could be the same with Trump.

    I'm with you here... I don't think Trump wants to win. A friend of mine has been on the conspiracy theory of "he's in cahoots with Hilary" from day one... and I'm about 70% there myself

    The NSA should have entire divisions checking and watching both of these aholes. Maybe it's like when you've been gone on vacation and you come back to work and there' so much crap to do you simply don't know where to begin?

    Hillary has had plenty of bad press too and Trump usually the maker of his bad press.

    As for Ventura, didn't he win?

    If that turns out to be true, I will admit that Trump is a 4D Chess Ninja Champion.

    Ventura won, but watching that disaster up close, I was convinced he was only trying to come close enough to boost his celebrity. He said so many ridiculous things during the debates that I was surprised he surged the way he did.

    Until this afternoon I thought "Trump Attacks Baby" was the one headline that would continue to stand as parody.

    Wow ....


    Reince Priebus Verified account
    ‏@Reince

    At time when US is newly concerned about terrorist attacks, we can't afford such unprincipled & out-of-touch leadership on world stage


    ......

    seriously thinking about taking the rest of the day off to watch this trainwreck on Twitter,
    Let's see if a) Trump makes it out of today or b) (R) just folds it's tent

    there is a lot of chatter about (R) rescinding the nomination with a Romney - fill in the blank ticket emerging
    which really screws with my prediction that 10-15 of "we" would be Trump voters

    No one stood up to him

    All of this information Clinton used Trump U, Russian connections,failed business' etc were there
    And no one except Mitt Romney had the balls to face him down,call his bluff or at least stand up and say "go 3rd party but we aren't doing this"

    Throwing the Univision anchor out of Press Conference, talking about McCain the way he did they all stood there.

    None of them will make good POTUS because they lack either backbone or political skill

    Trump won't use nuclear weapons unless he has a great reason like a hero soldier's father asks him to read the Constitution.
