Spelling “potato” wrong was disqualifying within my lifetime.

Come the 2020 election, Trump is going to tell people that he did build the wall and the fake news media is suppressing that to make him look bad, isn’t he?

I refuse to believe that Trump’s spelling problems are the result of anything other than an idiot brain. Unless he ever calls the Mueller investigation a witch cunt. Then he may know something no one else does.

Thing is, if Trump ever has a microphone failure/blooper like old Ronnie, nobody would notice, because it’s always the same old blathering.

If a recording turns up of Trump calling Hillary the c-word, or Obama the n-word (and I’m sure he has)…what’s it going to do, cost him votes among women and African-Americans? They’re not exactly his “base”.

I think his support is locked in at a solid 40% and nothing will ever change it, higher or lower.

I was not a Reagan supporter, but I thought it was funny.

IMHO, openly confirming to abuse your social status to harass women physically is MUCH more condemning than once calling a woman a cunt, though that’s bad enough. But what did that revelation change in the voter’s minds?

You know, at the time I was already living in Germany, the first battlefield to be grounded in a cold war gone hot, and I wasn’t amused.

Interesting–thanks. Guess he doesn’t want anyone copy/pasting his words on the subject…it would be brutal to be held accountable for a claim that Donald Trump possesses basic intelligence (or more, as Adams has been claiming since before November 2016).

For a bit, someone was posting transcripts in the comments.

But that stopped.

Then I stopped.

Trump won white women 52% to 43%. Never forget. The term “white women” brings up all sorts of associations, but sometimes it’s useful to picture Tulsa, OK in late spring, 1921.

white women (not all, of course, just moreso than minorities) rely on their husband for status. If the husband is a racist, misogynistic sob, the wife will probably also be so inclined. Education fixes that. Being in a culture where men are often no more than sperm donors tends to toughen up women and broaden their POV. At one time, women membership in the KKK was in the millions.

It is very hard for educated whites, mostly liberal, to convince minorities we are really trying to work together with them. For every positive contact, they receive a dozen negative ones.

Today’s set of lies from the Liar-In-Chief:

> [@Individual-1](#):
>
> The Democrats and President Obama gave Iran 150 Billion Dollars and got nothing, but they can’t give 5 Billion Dollars for National Security and a Wall?

1. By most estimates, somewhere between $25 and 56 billion;

2. It was Iran’s money to begin with;

3. The release of some of Iran’s frozen overseas assets was a fundamental condition of Iran’s acceptance of the nuclear rollback agreement; you know, the one that Trump blew up for no good reason. So we did get something (quite a lot, really) from the transaction, even if one happens not to agree with the method.

>
> In a wide ranging phone call to Fox & Friends, President Donald Trump repeated his objection to the 2015 nuclear agr

And no, Donald, IMHO $5 billion for your stupid fucking wall is 5 billion too much.

Well, let’s see. The caravan refugees want 50k, and Trump wants a wall.
