Gotta call BS on that. Trump is demonstrably all of the above, but his supporters aren't necessarily so. Tough talk just happens to give them a woody, regardless of how nonsensical it is.

He-man machismo, obligatory religious reference and vapid flag waiving plucks the heart strings of every (R)-box checking nincompoop in the country and Trump knows it. Trump is no stooge, he's the Pied Piper of stooges. He squeezes the bag, strikes up the pipes and our friend Coolidge dances like the mindless marionette he is.

"It's gonna be YUGE and you're gonna love it!" (Whatever it is.)

You forgot "stooge", "dumbass", "redneck", "tightwad", "bigot", "lackey", "flunky", 'ass kisser".................

We could go on all day, there are so many words that come to mind.

What you need to see isn't the individual trees, it's the forest behind them. And, that forest is the government that runs at the behest of the financial elite and a moronic ideology (Conservatism) that thinks the answer to this problem is to give said financial elite tax breaks, deregulation, less oversight and a totally docile and compliant work force............ Because they somehow think this is a path to "freedom for all". Allowing powerful, monied interests free rein to run our lives unhindered with no Democratic institutions empowering the common man to fight back........

Yeah, sounds great.

Gee, Thanks.

"Yuge" is Bernie's. Trump's is "great" or "very big".

Former Obama intel official: Hillary Clinton should drop out

"If it were me, I would have been out the door and probably in jail," said Flynn, who decried what he said was a "lack of accountability, frankly, in a person who should have been much more responsible in her actions as the secretary of state of the United States of America."

For the last 20 years of my Federal career, I had a security clearance as high as Hillary's, and I know for a fact that I would have been fired and likely prosecuted for doing what she did. No doubt about it.
