Default Donald Trump

Okay - is this guy really just a totally shameless attention ho, who will say literally anything to get in the news?

Or is he really half-crazy?

Reference: his tweets last night.

Discuss.

I'm starting to think he's not all there ....

Edit: Here are the tweets from late last night (the crazy stuff from earlier in the day not counted)

During the election yesterday, Donald Trump literally blew up twitter early yesterday night as @realDonaldTrump, tweeting
Quote:
“Well, back to the drawing board!”
He followed those up with two tweets he then deleted which read:
Quote:
“lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!”
and

Quote:
“Phoney electoral college made a laughing stock out of our nation. The loser one!”
We can’t really figure out why he deleted just those two tweets, as his tirade just goes downhill from there. Here are his tweets:

Quote:
“We can’t let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided!”
Quote:
“Lets fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice! The world is laughing at us.”
Quote:
“This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy!”
Quote:
“Our country is now in serious and unprecedented trouble…like never before.”
Quote:
“Our nation is a once great nation divided!’
Quote:
“The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy.”
Quote:
“Hopefully the House of Representatives can hold our country together for four more years…stay strong and never give up!”
Quote:
“House of Representatives shouldn’t give anything to Obama unless he terminates Obamacare.”

Looks like pretty standard fare from The Donald to me. Hate to agree with him, but he is right about the country being so divided. Maybe it's always been that way and I never noticed, but it really struck home with me last night when I was looking at the breakdown in how people voted. It was men vs. women, blacks vs. white, urban vs rural, educated vs. uneducated, north vs. south, east vs. west, and so on ad infinitum.

The division was by design, especially exploited by the Democrats and their class warfare nonsense. The Republicans do it too, no doubt, but it is absolutely essential to the Libtard playbook.

Wow. You really, really have no grip on objective reality.

I could say the same to you, except that this event happened to go your way.

Class warfare you say? When you take someone’s job and you ship it to some other country, thereby avoiding the need to pay taxes, provide a decent wage, or healthcare, or a pension, or a safe workplace, I can’t imagine why some might view this as “class warfare.” It’s Just good ole American capitalism at its finest as practiced by Mitt and other “entrepreneurs.” Well done, Mitt.

Only one thing, if you ship folks jobs overseas, they can't buy much except maybe at that bastion of foreign goods in America called Wal-Mart, but I guess thats ok. I like Wal-Mart. They're so nice. Sharing little bits of America with China. How generous can you get?

division and close elections are found far more often than a clear choice by the vast majority in this country. many times in history, the nominating process alone could take some time, with cliques inside of parties trying to get 'their guy' nominated.

You haven't noticed...so true.



He is right about the "electoral college" scam.It's a great tool for the two parties as it allows for one with lesser popular votes to have a chance to win.

But really, who cares? The Republicans were beside themselves when Roosevelt got in for the 4th time....so -----amendment!

I always felt like that was another thing taking any power from people.Shouldn't your guy get as many terms as you want him to be in office if you like him? I think all term limits ....limit.


The "electoral college"...schemes.

And finally, The Jihadist blows....The Egyptian.

I read through those tweets, and they make much more sense if you replace "our nation" and "our country" with "my combover."

Funny stuff. I don't know, you might not think this was funny, but I thought it was hysterical. After reading about Trump offering the 5 million to Obama for a copy of his transcript, I was reading some of the comments on the Yahoo article and some person said, "I'd give a crackhead $3, if he'd knock that effing squirrel off Donald Trump's head."

Donald has become a parody. All he does now is look for shock value like the National Enquirer. He longs for the 80's when he was relevant. I would think that he is becoming an embarassment to his kids.

Is that not the job of all parents? I know my dad is well on his way, my in-laws never were anything but.

You have to look through a lot of comments before you find things like that, but some of them are pretty funny. Did you see the article on yahoo the other day about the beluga whale that mimics human speech? There were a lot of comments of the usual kind about whales being interesting, people liking whales, etc. One person said "I see whales at Wal-Mart all the time, they're usually riding scooters, texting and running over small children."
