Trump mocks Rubio, Romney

The GOP created this craziness. I hate to admit it, but I do enjoy seeing the other Republicans clutching their pearls over this mayhem. Trump is the nominee, we need to make sure the Democrats win the general. Quotes below:

“Let’s talk about our lightweight senator from Florida, who’s losing big in the polls,” Trump said, alluding to Rubio, whom he called a “nervous basket case.”

“You had to see him backstage. He was putting on makeup with a trowel,” Trump recalled, referencing Thursday's debate, as the crowd burst into laughter. “I don’t wanna say that. I will not say that he was trying to cover up his ears. I will not say that. He was just trying to cover up — he was just trying to cover up the sweat that pours…Did you ever see a guy sweat like this?”

(Cut)

"Moments later, after calling Rubio a “nasty guy” and a “baby” in addition to suggesting Cruz is smarter and tougher than the Florida senator, he held up a bottle of water and dubbed it "Rubio." Then he pretended to down the bottle of water and tossed it off stage.

If he's smart he's got a HUGE room full of comedy writers working their fingers to the bone.

I honestly think every Democrat should watch a few Trump's speeches.. most people on here have NO IDEA what long form Trump is like.

Go to 13:20 if you really wanna see what the hell we're in for this fall.
