Republicans proving that what democrats have been saying about them for years... is actually true. Well done, gentlemen, keep up the good work. Maybe tomorrow you can debate over which one of you has bigger... hands, or who's daddy would whup who's daddy's ass.

Ted, you could be all like: "Okay, so Donald says he wants to build a wall and make Mexicans pay for it? I'll build a BIGGER wall. I mean, it's a question of who has bigger hands - and who has better hair. You all know that's me right? Anyway, forget the Mexicans, I'll make the Muslims pay for it!"

Donald, you could pull one of these: "Okay, I'm going to do a whole lot worse than water boarding to Ted Cruz - hold him down boys, I'm going to shave this bastard's head."

I'm so glad that they're working so very hard to get out the vote... for democrats.

Trump is arguably the most dishonest candidate in history (24% True, Partly True or Mostly True, I think?), but he calls Ted Cruz out as being Lyin' Ted. I've also seen both Trump and Cruz at below 10% for honesty/fact checking.

Granted, Cruz is only a few points higher than Trump, but still.

(I think both Clinton and Sanders were around 75% for True, Mostly True and Partly True)

Of course, in his mind (which is great), he doesn't remember all of his lies or will claim he never said them.

Imagine the diplomatic discussions with foreign leaders either of these two poop-flingers would have. They'd call Angela Merkel "girl" and François Hollande "Dutch." They'd keep mistaking every Latin American leader for waiters and demand to know if they were illegals.

I mean, that's the story...not that Heidi had a nervous breakdown, or whatever.

Who wouldn't have a nervous breakdown married to Lily Munster's father's son?




As for Trump/Drumpf, he's showing us just what he is:

When will the American voters understand who the GOP really is. They have Florida Gov. R. Scott, a 14 time felon, never went to prison, GOP moved him from Texas to Fl to run and Gov and he won. A 2 time GOP rapist ran for a senate seat in Idaho and won. He raped in OH and FL, never served a day in jail. GOP moved him out west to hide his past, like they did Scott and he won too.

Is the GOP really a party of honesty, truthfulness, and forthcoming to be in any leadership. Even Donald Trump said he could kill someone and the Republicans would not blink an eye.

He should respond something like "your fingers are too short to expose anything", or something similar. It is tRumps weak spot.
