(21,998 posts)Your list is pretty good, DetlefK, and it's fairly comprehensive based on my memory.
The problem is that later today, Donald Trump will utter a new inanity followed by another insult tomorrow. It's an unending process and I suspect that you have much more interesting things to apply yourself to. (wink)
On taking Holy Communion: When I drink my little wine which is about the only wine I drink and have my little cracker, I guess that is a form of asking for forgiveness, and I do that as often as possible because I feel cleansed.
On Carly Fiorina: Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?
On his comments about Fiorinas face: I mean, shes a woman, and Im not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on: Are we serious?
In response to George Stephanopoulos question about how hed deport 11 million men, women, and children living in the U.S. without legal papers. George, its called management.
They would be out really fast, immediately.
On how he would get people back in, the really good ones, as he pledged: My specifics are very simple. Im going to get great people who know what theyre doing.
On tax reform: Look, nobody knows the tax code better than I do. OK. I know it better. I'm the king of the tax code. And Im going to come out with a plan, a simplification, a plan, getting rid of some of the deductions, which are ridiculous and complicated. I want to get rid of H&R Block. I want to put them out of business.
On getting Vietnam-era deferments after attending a military-themed boarding school. I always felt that I was in the military [because] I had more training militarily than a lot of the guys that go into the military.
I never had to do that, but I felt that I was in the military in the true sense because I dealt with those people.
On a Time magazine column by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar asserting that Bernie Sanders exhibits more grace than Trump. Kareemnow I know why the press always treated you so badlythey couldnt stand you. The fact is that you dont have a clue about life and what has to be done to make America great again!
On his feelings of superiority: For the most part, you cant respect people because most people arent worthy of respect.
On debating Hillary Clinton: I can probably think of nobody I would rather debate. I think beating her in a debate would be one of the easy challenges of my life.
His personal Vietnam was avoiding STDs
He has better hair than Rubio
Hillary's bathroom break was disgusting
He will kill families of terrorists
He will use nuclear weapons on ISIS
"I'd like to punch him in the face" about a protester
You have to treat women like shit
If Ivanka wasn't his daughter , he'd be dating her
"I love the poorly educated"
More to come

From the JD journal
Summary: Donald Trump has a way with words. Weve compiled 25 of his most outrageous statements below.
1. I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.
2. I saw a report yesterday. Theres so much oil, all over the world, they dont know where to dump it. And Saudi Arabia says, Oh, theres too much oil. Do you think theyre our friends? Theyre not our friends.
3. If Hillary Clinton cant satisfy her husband what makes her think she can satisfy America?
4. You know, it really doesnt matter what the media write as long as youve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.
5. If I were running The View, Id fire Rosie [ODonnell]. I mean, Id look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers, Id say, Rosie, youre fired.'
6. When Mexico sends its people, theyre not sending the best. Theyre not sending you, theyre sending people that have lots of problems and theyre bringing those problems with us. Theyre bringing drugs. Theyre bringing crime. Theyre rapists
And some, I assume, are good people.
7. The U.S. will invite El Chapo, the Mexican drug lord who just escaped prison, to become a U.S. citizen because our leaders cant say no!
8. I mean, part of the beauty of me is that Im very rich.
9. Well, somebodys doing the raping, Don. I mean somebodys doing it. Whos doing the raping? Whos doing the raping?
10. Rosie ODonnells disgusting both inside and out. You take a look at her, shes a slob. She talks like a truck driver, she doesnt have her facts, shell say anything that comes to her mind.
11. @ariannahuff is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a manhe made a good decision.
12. If you cant get rich dealing with politicians, theres something wrong with you.
13. A certificate of live birth is not the same thing by any stretch of the imagination as a birth certificate.
14. We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we cant get a f school in Brooklyn.
15. Hes not a war hero. Hes a war hero because he was captured. I like people that werent captured, OK, I hate to tell you.
16. The wall will go up and Mexico will start behaving.
17. She wanted to breast pump in front of me. I may have said something thats disgusting, I may have said something else. I thought it was terrible.
18. Our great African American President hasnt exactly had a positive impact on the thugs who are so happily and openly destroying Baltimore!
19. Laziness is a trait in the blacks
.Black guys counting my money! I hate it.
20. The only kind of people I want counting my money are little short guys that wear yamakas every day.
21. I have a great relationship with the blacks.
22. When was the last time anybody saw us beating, lets say, China in a trade deal? They kill us. I beat China all the time. All the time.
23. Free trade is terrible. Free trade can be wonderful if you have smart people. But we have stupid people [in office].
24. You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever.
25. One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace. Good people dont go into government.
Touché, Mr. Trump. Or shall we say, Toupee.
