Trump on His Foreign Policy Advisers: "I'm Speaking With Myself"

http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2016/03/trump-foreign-policy-advisers-speaking-with-myself

On March 8, Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski asked Donald Trump whether he had a foreign policy team. Trump gave a rambling response, saying, "Yes, there is a team. There's not a team. I'm going to be forming a team. I have met with far more than three people." On Wednesday morning, Brzezinski gave Trump another shot at the question. She asked him again about his foreign policy team and strategy, and specifically, who he consults with consistently.

Trump replied: "I'm speaking with myself, number one, because I have a very good brain and I've said a lot of things. I know what I'm doing, and I listen to a lot of people, I talk to a lot of people, and at the appropriate time I'll tell you who the people are. But my primary consultant is myself and I have, you know, a good instinct for this stuff."

He talks to himself? Voices in his head? Multiple personalities perhaps?

No need for a cabinet, no need for advisors, he just has to consult with himself. Won't have to pay anyone

Wonder what the voices are telling him about Eurasia for instance? We should get some idea if The Donald trots out shirtless.

Tribbles are forced to sit atop Trump's head. I think that's cruel.

Free the Tribbles!

Especially since I'm really getting worried about the little critters: they obviously aren't multiplying. When he stands under the light you can see they're wasting away. His bald head is showing through.

the same people who had discovered "things you wouldn't BELIEVE" in Hawaii about Obama's birth. You know, back when he was doing the "birther-in chief" thing. We never did find out what "his people" supposedly discovered in Hawaii.
