Trump "has really cool stuff in his office." Except for that FACE. Can you imagine?

On Monday, Carly Fiorina blessed us with an expert tutorial on the art of sucking up.

After the former CEO of Hewlett-Packard met with President-elect Donald Trump ― who is reportedly considering her for the position of director of national intelligence despite her lack of experience in that area ― Fiorina shamelessly heaped praise on the man who once mocked her face and instilled horror in her.

“First I want to say, he has really cool stuff in his office,” Fiorina told reporters after the meeting at Trump Tower. “All of these athletes have given him all this incredible memorabilia. I was particular taken by Shaq O’Neal shoe, which is huge.”

“I guess it takes a champion to know a champion,” she added, referring to her former primary rival.

WASHINGTON — The race for the Republican presidential nomination came to a head Wednesday as outsider candidates who have surged in the polls since the first GOP debate last month hurled personal insults at each other.

In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine published on Wednesday, current GOP frontrunner Donald Trump was quoted remarking about the appearance of former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina, the only woman in the Republican field, when she appeared on his television set.

“Look at that face!” the real estate mogul said. “Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?!”

Are they trying to get the government to fail from within?

Trump treated them like shit and now they are sucking up to him without any shame whatsoever. It's repulsive. Is there no politician on the planet who has an ounce of pride left?

...I'll take it any way I can get it. The bullying behavior of Christie came full circle, via Trump, and bit him right on the ass.

Trump may have humiliated Cruz and Rubio in a similar manner, but Christie thought he had a shot.

And he never did, as long as Trump's son-in-law is Jared Kuschner,

Kuschner got his revenge, and Trump had a laugh at Christie's expense.

Karma is still a bitch.
