Serena is awesome. tRump is............. well, let's not get into that.

He's said enough to torpedo a vote by any thinking human, but we all know that most Repukes react best to bigotry (check, tRump), ignorance (check, tRump), and fear (check, tRump).

almost everything of his mouth is self satire.

have you seen the Cincinnati rant? it was awe inspiringly insane; rapid fire non-sequitur, on a stream of consciousness highway without a stoplight

here's my favorite example, but check the long version on youtube for as long as you can take it. they're all on the same page as this:

the first seventeen seconds of that should run until November, without comment

the man is completely out of his mind.
