Uuuooo...I can hardly wait for the shit show tomorrow.

This has been a wonderful week full of dumbassery. Wonder what's around the corner. Expect the unexpected.

Just imagine if Trump the Con were President. We would all be on pins and needles just hoping to even wake up the next day. Because of the possibility that, at any moment, a nuclear explosion, intenationally or accidently has wiped us all out. That Drumpf got his pants in a wad because some foreign country would not kiss his orange ass.

A grown women wearing a half cape comes out and immediately talks about her dream to be the circus. It was so bad I could not stop laughing.

she says that she has no employees at all, so it was just typical Trump campaign fraudulent hype. She is a multilevel marketer.

RNC press materials gushed about Van Etten’s work with Youngevity, declaring, "Michelle employs over 100,000 people and is a strong supporter of Donald Trump, knowing his policies will support businesses all across America."

The 100,000 figure is bogus; Van Etten told the Guardian's Jon Swaine "she was in fact part of a network of 100,000 sellers in the US, Canada, Mexico and other countries, in which distributors work to recruit other distributors. 'Nobody works for me, because we are all individual contractors, and we all have our own individual businesses,' she said."

and I thought that was bad enough, but THIS? A low-level seller of semi-quack, and perhaps the real thing, supplements speaking to 30 million people at the Republican National Convention?

So far, Joe hasn't mentioned THIS trumpster fire! Seriously, maybe Nicolle Wallace is right that Cruz did them a favor by not endorsing.

to see if Melania shows up or not. She did NOT attend tonight! (Wednesday.) Trump was surrounded by his children and their spouses tonight. If she doesn't, that's YUUUUGE!
