...Democratic Deep Cover Agent. Like Sarah Palin and all the other Republican wacko's. It's a whole MIB thing where the aliens are living among us but nobody knows, except, they're Democrats representing the crazy far Right Wing "values" and pulling out the crazy by their clownish buffoonery that finds support and credibility within the GOP.

David Duke wasn't one of those, he was serious about his racism, but his crazy was undermined by the Democratic Strategy of presenting "candidates" that are even more crazy.

I want to learn from the guy who has filed for bankrupcy FOUR TIMES.

And who better to teach about family values than the man married three times with kids with each of those families. Oh I have no issues with that just that you know, the GOP is all about family values

What a joke!

Money does not necessarily guarantee sanity. That's all I can say. And there are varying degrees of insanity as well as different manifestations of it.

If you have money, you can live quite well while insane. If you are insane and don't have a lot of money, you are likely as not to end up homeless and on the street.

Strange world we live in, and Donald Trump is among the strangest.

Or it could be that he is mentally controlled by the parasite on his head.

Or perhaps being an asshole is not considered a mental illness in the DSM.

Could be dementia, which often presents as personality changes at first, as well as delusional thinking.

If Donald Trump is mentally ill, his mental illness is BIGGER than anyone else's mental illness ever! He is better at being mentally ill than anyone else in the world. It's really just gigantic and this mental illness is BIG NEWS that everyone will talk about. It's going to be spectacular. I guarantee you're going to love it.

Scotland saw him for the joke he is, and he left there in a huff. We in the US should be so lucky.

anything true or exaggerated and to get public air time to aid Tea Partiers and the most Conservative Wing of of Government. It is a shell game people! He should NOT be allowed to do this. He should not be allowed any air time. In fact, I think he should be investigated.
