I'm tired of dumdum and drumpf

Glad you like it!

I think it's the best one, esp. now with all the stories about his cheating and lying. And being orange, of course. Perfect fit.

8. What's the difference between Donald Trump and a bag of Cheetos?

One is a cheesy sack of toxic crap pumped up with orange dye and hot air, and sold to ignorant masses with no taste. The other is a corn-based snack food.

Can't claim credit for it, but don't know the original source. It was a pic on FB.

Dems can be pretty damn clever!! I'm finding so much material when I google drumpf, it's mind-boggling!!

That's how I came across Garry Trudeau's Doonesbury Trump retrospective-- otherwise I definitely wouldn't have

4. Was first time Donald J tRump appeared in front of a mixed non-adoring audience.

His appearances have been in front of crowds greater than 99% in love with him. Suddenly it's a 50/50 crowd. Very different. It would spook him, particularly because of his ego and his inability to introspect.

6. Trump also feeds off the applause like a parasite. If he doesn't get it every 30 seconds,

he becomes really nervous and agitated.

After 20+ minutes of silence for his first several statements, you could tell he was lost and started to say anything he thought would get an audible reaction.

I don't recall what for. So did Hillary, I think, once or twice.

I remember thinking, 1) Wow, from the same crowd? and 2) Weren't they supposed to be quiet?

of people who are "in love with him." At least in theory, the town hall style of debate is supposed to have an audience of "undecideds."

Outside the USA there may also have been some people going into shock on discovering how lame the Donald is [center]
