The hypocrisy of Donald Trump.
This morning, Trump railed about the Chinese, how they are economically controlling us, and how he would put them in their place. I guess the same doesn't go for Mrs. Trump, who is premiering a line of costume jewelry on QVC. Check it out: Made in China.

3. I had just turned on my tv and saw
his face. I thought it was just going to be another flash moment. But then, I saw what was happening. I still do not understand how anyone, anywhere, can believe a word he says. He was just doing a self-promotion. And the right-wing will not change its mind by seeing a birth certificate. I became so angry I turned it off and left the room so I would not harm my tv set.

7. It was awful. And he still would not drop the issue, would not admit the certificate was
real, etc. Brought up crap about President Obama's grades (all malicious lies I am certain) and then went on to say he could fix the problem with China by fixing the currency problem, and would call OPEC if elected and would get gas prices lowered dramatically with one phone call.

Asshole. He really takes the cake, that's all I can say. And like any R, if he was eleccted he would not "fix" the thing with China because he would be serving the rich people here who are shipping jobs to China as fast as they can, and serving the oil industry who does not want the price of oil/gas to come down because then they would lose money.

Anyway most of our oil doesn't even come from OPEC. So Trump is only reaching out to the most ignorant and hateful of our population.

Jesus, the R's have figured out how to capture the stupid people of our nation as their base and so their candidates keep pandering to the most stupid of the stupid among their base. Sickening.

10. The media still gives him time. He gets free publicity
every time he is on.

4. I love her description of this cheap crap she's hawking
"In the windows of Worth Avenue, our street in Palm Beach that's just like Fifth Avenue in New York or the Champs-Elysées in Paris, I found my inspiration for this bold, elegant watch. The mother-of-pearl dial is easy to read, the sparkle is where you can see it, and the highly polished leather anchors the high-end, bold look. Offered in an array of beautiful colors, this watch is just the right size and is a classic look that won't go out of style."

— Melania Trump

6. amazing
ALL of the Melania Trump jewelry on QVC is Made In China!! I did a Google and found a whole page of artificial gemstone manufacturers in the USA. They COULD have easily had them made in USA if indeed it was such a big issue for them. The Trumps are hideous hypocrites.
