One can also find good deals at the Super 8 Motel chain.
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

It's like a Klan rally gone nationwide: It sends the message that it's okay to be racist and xenophobic, you'll have plenty of company.
But a year from now, it certainly won't be okay. There's going to be a massive denial that they ever supported that aspect of Trump's philosophy.

So now the presumptuous Republican candidate, Donald Trump, has declared himself the "law and order" candidate. I'm guessing he is against blue-collar crime, since he would be standing in a courtroom right now if the proceedings against him for bilking people out of millions through Trump University hadn't been postponed until after the election. And he further claims that he will solve the Veterans Administration problems by picking up a phone. He's going to root out (like a pig) the fraud and wrongdoing. And he is a guy that knows a lot about fraud and wrongdoing, at least from the perpetrator's point of view. Good grief. Will this guy never have to answer the hard questions, or tell how he is going to accomplish these miracles, or show his tax returns, or be held accountable for HIS crimes? I just don't get it.

Trump staffer responds to Trump lawsuit over ‘leaked’ Page Six story - Page Six. Former Donald Trump campaign staffer Sam Nunberg has filed sensational legal papers against the presidential hopeful’s campaign, alleging he was wrongly accused of leaking a story to Page Six about a “lovers’ quarrel” between the mogul’s publicist and campaign manager.
Nunberg, who worked as a strategic adviser for Trump but was fired last year, claims in the papers that, because he then endorsed Sen. Ted Cruz, the Trump campaign is “attempting to bring a frivolous and retaliatory arbitration proceeding against me essentially to punish me and shut me up.” This after Trump, in typical Trump fashion, Trump seeks $10M from ex-aide in confidentiality suit. It is a tactic Trump has used dozens (if not hundreds) of times in his business dealings. ( You’re Sued: Donald Trump’s Long History of Litigation - WSJ.) It may be a sign of how he would govern, too.
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

The deadliest weapon against Donald Trump? His own words. - WaPo. It’s notable that highlighting Trump’s stance on specific issues — and not just his awful quotes — is seen as the way to reach these voters. The focus on climate in particular as a motivator of millennials is an underappreciated facet of this election.
Beyond this, the ads — which were launched in conjunction with other groups, such as Planned Parenthood, the League of Conservation Voters, the Latino Victory Fund, and EMILY’s List — also once again reveal two core assumptions driving Dem strategy against Trump. First, Dems believe that one of the most potent tools for generating enthusiasm among key Dem constituencies, and key swing constituencies such as college educated white women, remains Trump’s rich store of disgusting quotes and ideas. Second, for all of Trump’s widespread media exposure during the last year, Dems remain convinced that many of these voters are still unaware of the full existing range of specific quotes and ideas in all their Trumpian wretchedness. When voters are exposed to them, Dems believe, they will conclude that a Trump presidency could be nothing short of a full blown catastrophe for this country and its future. In other words, Dems are trying to scare the sh-t out of you, and there’s plenty of fodder with which to do it.

Unable to obtain "A-list" speakers, the Trump campaign skipped the "B" and "C" list and settled for 4th tier speakers. Republican convention speakers: Tebow, Ivanka Trump, Gingrich, Lt. Gen. Flynn - CNN. Tim Tebow? Really?! You thought talking chairs were bad...

Trump says ex quitter governor Sarah Palin is not speaking at the GOP convention because Alaska is too far away from Cleveland, Ohio. He really IS a science denier. I bet the Wasillabilly is pitchin' a fit.

No, that was the Kremeland, where president Rasputin lives.
