"Seems healthy": Internet cringes over fans claim he salutes 6-ft cardboard Trump daily

‘Seems healthy’: Internet cringes over fan’s claim he salutes 6-ft cardboard Trump daily



http://www.rawstory.com/2017/02/seems-healthy-internet-cringes-over-trump-fans-claim-he-salutes-6-ft-cardboard-trump-daily/




Pres. Donald Trump attacked the press and invented a terrorist attack in Sweden that never happened on Saturday at his rally in Melbourne, Florida, but some people will remember the rally for one reason only: Trump supporter Gene Huber.

“A star is born,” said Pres. Trump on Saturday after he invited ardent supporter Gene Huber on to the stage to address the audience.

He told CNN after the rally, “I got a six-foot cardboard box of Pres. Trump in my house and I salute that every single day.”

Huber continued, “And I pray. I tell him, ‘Mr. President, I pray for your safety today. And I’m not lying. I do that every day.”

But, from what I have seen, the large majority of Trumpsters would believe he is perfectly normal.

That's what Drumpf said as that fellow left the stage. Donny Drumpf, maker of stars. Too busy to finish making the hundreds and hundreds of appointments to keep the country functioning.

Quite frankly I'm glad. Trump has over 100 judge appointments to make. The longer he doesn't, the better for our country. You know they are going to be awful appointments and only needs 50 votes.

Trump has 100 judges, only needs 50 votes. And of course you put in your anti-hide qualifier at the beginning.

Gene Huber is a life-long Democrat and a hardcore Hillary supporter. The only reason he said those things is because CNN paid him a handsome amount of money to help make Trumplings look bad.

At least that will be the reasoning of other Trumplings. Unless they actually like the idea, then expect several more six-foot cardboard boxes of Trump.
