The Trump campaign is about satiating his ravenous ego-driven appetite. \u00a0He has no moral compass. \u00a0To complete the picture, he hires the most vile of the vile to be his reality checks.<\/p>\n<p>When President Obama was elected, something must have triggered Donald&#8217;s ego to get the best of him. \u00a0What? \u00a0A black man as President? \u00a0Donald and his followers have the same motivation: \u00a0Find others who can be blamed for failure. \u00a0With President Obama in office, that excuse was challenged so Donald came up with the birther nonsense and drew every crackpot to his camp of support. \u00a0Once he saw how he could gain control of half of the Republicans, he decided to take it one step further: \u00a0Run for the Presidency. \u00a0Of course, when President Obama mocked Donald at the Press Club dinner, he went nuts. \u00a0Imagine the tantrum. \u00a0No one is going to mock Donald Trump. \u00a0He&#8217;ll show us all. \u00a0And he almost did (I hope).<\/p>\n<p>Donald&#8217;s primary challengers fell into the trap of lowering themselves to his sewage swilled level. \u00a0I&#8217;ll give Kasich some credit. \u00a0He did not do this but he drowned out by the bickering with Bush, Cruz and Rubio. This was a cage match of debates, not any intellectual discussion which Donald is incapable of. \u00a0But Hillary has kept her cool. \u00a0She will not engage in his hatefulness which is in her best interests. \u00a0And amazingly, Donald can be baited by Hillary with a simple facial expression or a brief comment. \u00a0Okay: \u00a0He&#8217;s insane and definitely a sociopath with money.<\/p>\n<p>It just astonishes me how anyone could even consider voting for this empty suit for President. \u00a0I just want to drive around the neighborhood and look for those Trump yard signs, take a photo of the sign and ask the owner: \u00a0Why do you want to support a xenophobic, misogynist candidate who mocks religion, the disabled and people of color? \u00a0Are you so worried about the Supreme Court that you are willing to put this crazy person in charge of nukes?<\/p>\n<p>Okay, I can&#8217;t go on but what I&#8217;ve seen lately in terms of the horrendous threats against anyone who speaks ill of Donald, I might be taking my chances here. \u00a0Just get out and vote in massive volume for Hillary. \u00a0And don&#8217;t NOT vote. \u00a0That&#8217;s a vote for crazy man.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Does anyone else feel like they are living in a parallel universe? \u00a0 Trump&#8217;s hate-filled rhetoric has gone over the edge. \u00a0I suspect this is all because it is nearly certain that he will lose and losing doesn&#8217;t come easy to Donald. \u00a0He is incapable of accepting the fact that he actually might not win so it must be &#8220;rigged&#8221; against him. \u00a0 And the only reason, and I mean&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[35],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1877","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-donald-trump"],"a3_pvc":{"activated":false,"total_views":0,"today_views":0},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1877","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1877"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1877\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1879,"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1877\/revisions\/1879"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1877"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1877"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manassascitydemocrats.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1877"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
