Doesn’t Trump’s insecurity stem from having a “tiny orange penis”?

I am quite confident _Hustler_ is searching for a male Little Person willing to be died orange and wear a wig for the inevitable porn film.

ETA: I posted too soon.[It’s already out starring Evan Stone playing The Donald,](http://decider.com/2016/08/16/donald-trump-porn-parodies/) who is actually a pretty good actor (especially by porn standards.)

Now Trump is claiming that the people who went to that concert left because of the “bad language” Jay Z and Beyonce were using so that by the time Hillary came out, there place was empty. Yeah, right.

It [wasn’t a dud](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Arutyunian), just fortuitously prevented from working as intended, and it actually didn’t get close enough to W to even potentially hurt him. It did land close to the Georgian president, his wife, and Laura Bush, though, not to mention the rest of the surrounding crowd, so it certainly would have been a great tragedy if the grenade attack had worked as intended.

Certainly makes one wonder in a secret ballot election just how much everyone seems to know about who voted and how.

I’m disappointed that they took Donald’s Twitter access away. It would’ve been an epic tweetstorm in these final days and hours.

I think they should give it back to him at midnight tonight. Throw the guy a bone (as it were).

I’m really hoping he gets his twitter account back in time for the election results, so that we can see him blow up every time a state is called for Hillary with only 3% of the votes counted. (Donald, it’s _Maryland_. Relax!)

Good gracious, Gerty! The last thing I’d ever want in my porn is a Trump of any kind. Talk about a lady boner-killer.
