They all want to repeal ObamaCare. Wow, I didn't know that.

They all want to bomb everybody. Breaking news!

Anybody with skin darker than a Chick-Fil-A napkin needs to STFU. What a decisive candidate!

This was a joke. And Blitzer didn't help. He was horrible, but maybe nobody could moderate those nut-jobs.

Trump just said he was being audited because of his religion, since he was such a strong Christian.

Please, if only to help me sleep at night, tell me nobody in America fell for that line.
