May we please stop with the implied eight dimensional chess Donald Trump references.

Not every stupid thing he does inures to his benefit. If you believe that suggesting Hillary be knocked off or clumsily withdrawing his charge that President Obama is an undocumented alien helps his campaign I have some dry land in the Everglades I want to sell you...

He can not win with his base of deplorables. He needs to expand it. This tomfoolery doesn't help.

It's really as if they enjoy working their own misery.

you are right... he certainly isn't capable of 11-dimensional chess but playing the media isn't that. It didn't work today but he was smart to clear the air before the debates. He should have done it a long long time ago but better now than on September 25th.

Trump walked into a whole swimming pool full of shit today by pulling this SCAM on the press, his BULLSHIT-FILLED and dismissive so-called "admission" that Obama is actually a U.S. citizen, and with his latest violent comment about Hillary.


The guy is a FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT CON ARTIST, and the media is FINALLY waking up to it because THEY got scammed.

I've also posted about some the outrageous things that the media has said or done today, which makes them complicit in Trump's lies. How they think that they can allow a presidential candidate to lie about everything, to their faces, and they simply roll their eyes, if they do that? And when Trump or his surrogates are questioned about it, the media gives them equal time and is quite respectful even when they know that they are lying.

He only thinks how he can make a buck off it. Showing off his hotel was it for him. The only thing 8 dimensional about what he has done is each of his advisors give him a script and those are at odds with each other. So it's more a 8 dimensional board that has been run over.

with the cover the MSM has provided him, he would be winning right now. He's a freaking dumbbell, a functional halfwit.
