Trump Hits Clinton, Kaine and DNC Flap in Virginia Stop

Source: NBC

ROANOKE, Va. — Monday brought the Trump Pence ticket back on the trail together for the first time since the Republican Convention — and into Sen. Tim Kaine's backyard.

Campaigning in the newly picked Democratic VP candidate's home state, Donald Trump came armed with barbs against Clinton, Kaine, and former DNC Chair, Debbie Wasserman-Schutlz.

"Debbie. Wasserman. Schultz," Trump said, emphasizing each piece of her name. "I always knew she was highly overrated!" The GOP nominee went on to brand her resignation as a sign of Hillary Clinton's disloyalty.

"There's no loyalty there, right?" Trump said. "It gets a little heat and they fire her." While Trump riffed about loyalty, a member of the crowd re-appropriated an often heard line at Trump rallies. "Lock 'em all up!" a voice cheered.

1. What I "love" about Trump is he can literally make two arguments in opposition

and his brain doesn't even register the fallacy.

DWS was overrated
&
Her "firing" shows no loyalty.


So is he saying loyalty should be extended even to those who are incompetent or he is he saying she wasn't incompetent in which case his first attack was false. He does this all the time and they are hardly subtle yet his drones just nod and shout. It is maddening.

Don't give AF.

There's no logic/reasoning/thought going on in their teeny-tiny-eensie-weensie little 'brains', it's just a base, reptilian-like instinct ...

"They aren't me/mine, they are 'other', therefore I hate them, and love to hear negative things about them even if they have no logical consistency because 'actual thinking' is for elitist liberals. And by the way ... duuuuuuuuuuuuuuh".

...Today, Trump's solicitation of foreign citizens for support is perfectly acceptable, including foreign cyber espionage.

These loons would have been completely discredited even by the Reaganites.


Now we've got a Republican party that would undoubtedly reject Reagan for being "too establishment" and "too liberal."


Incredible. If only my dad were alive to see it. "Oy vey" he would say.
