I know, I know, think of the children!
But seriously, it's like he's giving master lessons in how to be a successful bully. He's modeling bigotry and ignorance. His values are putrid. His manners are grotesque. The list goes on.

(101,361 posts)He seems to use his youngest son as a lifestyle accessory. His elder 2 sons seem pretty nasty human beings, so I can't see his relationship with them as something to be approved of.

(660 posts)I never thought that I would hear a presidential candidate cursing in presidential debates and public appearances.
I never thought that I would hear a presidential candidate resort to childish name-calling as the primary message of his campaign.
I never thought that I would hear a candidate trying to convince people that his sexual equipment is of adequate size.
I could go on, but that's enough. What do junior high children think when they come to realize that in many respects they are already more mature than a major presidential candidate and when they see their parents cheering for that candidate? This can't be good.
