http://theplantain.com/donald-trump-promises-to-build-giant-net-around-wynwood-make-mosquitos-pay-for-it/<snip>
Speaking to a capacity crowd of elderly racists in South Florida, Presidential hopeful Donald Trump announced that he has a plan to contain the Zika virus, which has been found throughout Miami's Wynwood Arts District.
"Folks, I'm going to stop the Zika. Stop the Zika," the Republican nominee shouted, "and here is how we're going to do it, folks. We're going to build a net. A tremendous net. You've never seen a net this good. And we're going to make the mosquitoes pay for it."
"Build The Net! Build The Net!" the crowd started chanting.
"They are taking our jobs!" shouted retired post office worker Herbert Miller before being told by his wife Elaine that Mr. Trump was talking about mosquitoes and not Mexicans. "oh, well...Obama is a Muslim!" yelled the confused man.
Mr. Trump then assured the crowd that he was "the only one" that could stop the spread of the Zika virus. "You know who did this to you folks? Crooked Hillary Clinton. She started Zika. I mean, have you seen that video of her? There is a video of her, folks, of Crooked Hillary starting Zika, but the press, which has been so unfair to me, am I right? So unfair. The press doesn't tell you that."
"Lock Her Up! Lock Her Up!" chanted the crowd.
