![[Linked Image from i2.wp.com]](http://i2.wp.com/fusion.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/cannotunsee7.gif) I love this one and have posted it elsewhere several times. This is a photoshop of where Trump mocks a disabled person. He denies it and many of his supporters believe him. The man is a creep.

Golem .... he has a very good brain, ergo he knows the best words and he uses his words quite often You're right, of course. I may sit this election out - at least the presidential part. I've voted in every Presidential election since I was eligible to vote in 1968 and I've always voted for the Republican candidate. If the GOP candidate is Trump, I won't vote for him. I won't vote for Hillary or anyone else the Democrats put up either.

There is a forum where many Trump cultists hang out. This is an ongoing list of historical, popular, and Biblical people, as well as fictional characters and animals, that Donald Trump has been favorably compared to on this forum by his cultists: - Alexander the Great
- Batman
- Battlefield surgeon
- The Blues Brothers ("We're on a mission from God!")
- Asa Buchanan (One Life To Live)
- Julius Caesar
- Churchill
- Bill Clinton
- Rooster Cogburn (True Grit)
- Cyrus the Great
- King David
- Eisenhower
- J.R. Ewing (Dallas)
- The Founding Fathers
- John Galt (Atlas Shrugged)
- Gideon
- Rick Grimes (The Walking Dead)
- Max Herschel (Just Tell Me What You Want)
- Andrew Jackson
- Jesus
- John F. Kennedy
- Obi-Wan Kenobi (Star Wars)
- James T. Kirk (Star Trek)
- Leonidas I
- MacArthur
- Jim Malone (The Untouchables, portrayed by Sean Connery)
- Charles Martel
- Moses
- Nebuchadnezzar
- Saint Patrick
- Patton
- Reagan
- Richard I (Richard the Lionheart, Richard Coeur de Lion)
- Franklin D. Roosevelt
- Teddy Roosevelt
- Babe Ruth
- Samson
- Secretariat
- Solomon
- Truman
- Darth Vader (Star Wars)
- Sir William Wallace (real life subject of Braveheart)
- Washington
These people are totally serious. Now, if I were to compile my own list of Trump comparisons, it would not be favorable. It would not be very original either. In fact, it would be all too obvious: - P. T. Barnum
- Elmer Gantry
- Huey Long
- Greg Stillson (Stephen King's The Dead Zone)

Darth Vader is pretty funny. It is a comedic cliche for the clueless character in a movie to see Darth as the real hero. Just like the judo bully in The Karate Kid...

It seems that now that Donald Trump is the presumptive Republican nominee, people are starting to pay attention to him. For him that is not good. Almost daily there is a new "revelation." He doesn't donate to charity; he isn't as rich as he claims; he won't release his taxes; he is more bigoted than we thought; he gets sued a lot; he might be indicted. His poll numbers are tanking, and he gets no love from Republicans (except some Evangelicals, go figure). Yet, like a toothache, we can't get rid of him.
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

We need to pull the tooth - it is way beyond repair. And the fun is just getting started  Can't wait to see what will happen by the time September rolls around.
