It's like Trump has never seen those initials before in his life.

Q can also mean Queer, which is a catch-all for everything else.

Queer, which to a lot of people isn't a slur any more (although to a lot of people it still is, and those people tend to hate its addition to The Acronym).

Why make the speech about crime? How is going hard on crime going to win over swing voters when it's at a historic low??
He's speaking to the GOP base, who believes that crime has gone up, unemployment up, deportations down, and the stock market down under Obama even though the opposite is true. They live in an alternate reality.

I'm not a Republican, but haven't you seen Ferguson?

Again, it's the same logic as those who think it snowing one day means climate change isn't real. Weather is isolated day to day and climate the trend.

I can't watch any more of this.

Gonna be a rough eight years for you, little buddy.

Don't count on it. White supremacists don't get elected President.

Absolutely wonderful speech. Drumpf is delivering with excellence.

If you liked that, I hear there's an absolutely electric totalitarian regime in North Korea right now that you might like.

The base eats that up and the past few elections have been essentially "get out the base" contests.

Maybe it's irrational on my part.
