She raised the fact that Russia interfered with the US elections and he said Crimea happened under Obama. He forgot Georgia happened under Bush and went straight for her race.

Remember how Republicans hated Clinton for deigning to protest Vietnam on foreign soil? Good times. I'm sure that they will issue a strongly worded press release attacking Trump over this. any.minute.

Trump is a tiny man whose words mean nothing.

Everytime Trump speaks, Democratic voting participation goes up.

a lousy president. And, IIRC, Bush didn't trash Clinton either once he became president, and Clinton didn't trash Bush I, and Bush I didn't trash Reagan, and Reagan didn't trash Carter, and Carter didn't trash Ford; and Ford, far from trashing Nixon, actually pardoned his sleazy ass.

His attacks on the press are horrific enough, but add the fact that he considers lunatic fringe sites like OANN and The Daily Caller news is scary. Not to mention how often he tweets and retweets Fox News crap and conspiracy theories...

trump's nuking hurricanes 'suggestion' was, after the automatic science links showing trump's remarks as nonsense, treated as just another inane trump remark by commentators.

This afternoon, CNN's Cilizza, traced trump's fascination with 'nuclear' - as in used as a threat/violent response, deterrent, general good other uses cited by trump, as well as the hurricane thing. This context, shows how trump's specious mind works, - and one can better sense the danger of the trump problem.
