Donald Trump is a man-baby

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/oct/14/donald-trump-is-a-man-baby

Susan Campbell

"...And the Republican candidate is a man-baby, a failed businessman who lurches from tantrum to tweet storm and back again, who shows no impulse control, who won’t take responsibility for his actions, and who whines – a lot – when things don’t go his way. As First Lady Michelle Obama said at a Thursday rally in New Hampshire, even a six-year-old knows better."

"...The newest low came earlier this week. The New York Times ran damning stories from women who said Trump made unwanted advances toward them. Trump denied the allegations and then he threatened to sue. For that, he got a snootful from the Times’ lawyer (and America’s new hero), David E McCraw. His much-circulated letter ended with the bon mot that if the Republican candidate felt wronged, the Times would “welcome the opportunity to have a court set him straight”.

Boom! Wouldn’t we all? Wouldn’t it be fun to see a 70-year-old man-baby get the book thrown at him by a judge who’s not having any of it?

Most of Trump’s tweets since the lawyer’s letter was made public have centered on his comings and goings, and his rallies where he promises to make America great again. But stay tuned. Some early morning – very soon, when the lights are out at Trump Tower – he’ll rise from his crib, reach for his Android/pacifier, and do what soothes him most. There is no time-out big enough."

Male-baby is as close as I can go. He is more the result of a miscreant chromosome mash up.

There may not be a time-out big enough, but there could be an electoral beat down big enough....GOTV people! If you vote and fail to get at least 2 other people to the polls, you could do more if you REALLY want to see Trump go down in flames!!!

Just over 3 weeks to go...let's show Yammy boy what real 'stamina' is all about!!!

New York Times.

Take it to the limit!

Let's see how your lawyers representing your whining fare against the Times' legal team defending that paper's practicing First Amendment provisions.

Could be a very clarifying experience for you.

He has left us two doors and we are knocking on them daily. Make sure the people know who he is, and make sure they know Clintons positions.

"Attacking a person's character is what you do when you know he beats you on the issues."

That is actually an incorrect and one must be a simpleton to even hold the thought.
