In another rally by the insane, for the insaen, Donald Trump claimed that President Obama founded ISIS, and that Hillary Clinton was the co-founder. After the rally, he was asked by a reporter if he meant exactly what he said. He said ‘definitely,’ without a smile or hesitation. Now he’s ‘flip-flopping.’
“I said Obama is the founder of ISIS. The founder! And these dishonest media people, they’re the most dishonest people,” Trump said.
“So I said the founder of ISIS, obviously I’m being sarcastic, but not that sarcastic to be honest with you,” he added.
I fail to understand how any intelligent human being can support this megalomaniac. How could anyone who has any love for his or her country believe that Trump would make an even adequate president?
Trump is all that is bad about America. What he isn’t is qualified or intelligent enough to be allowed to live in the White House.
This tactic of Trump’s; to say something outrageous and then recant it later is not working. Even when he was forced to renege on his refusal to support the reelection campaigns of Paul Ryan, John McCain, and Kelly Ayotte, he appeared insincere as he read from a prepared statement.
“If his lips are moving, he’s lying.” If any one thing is 100 percent accurate regarding Trump; that old adage fits perfectly.
During that same rally, Trump revealed his desperation. Not only is he losing ground in swing states, at least three “red states” are leaning towards Hillary Clinton; Georgia, North Carolina, and Utah. Because of his losing style, Trump brought out RNC Chairman, Reince Priebus, to speak to the crowd. Although he waged a major campaign to derail Trump from the very first debate, he, too, has proven himself a ‘flip-flopper,’ and the leader of GOP hypocrites.
“We’re so honored to be working with Donald Trump and the campaign,” Priebus told thousands of Trump supporters.
“And don’t believe the garbage you read. Let me tell you something. Donald Trump, the Republican Party, all of you, we’re going to put him in the White House and save this country together.”
Why does the Republican Party hate the truth? This is a classic example. Facts are always unwanted and must be ignored when the GOP is offering such an unstable and unqualified man as their standard bearer. He is a travesty, and the final element which has divided the Republican Party forever.
Hopefully the first step taken by Republican leadership after Trump loses in November, will be to fire Priebus. He has failed his party miserably for the last eight years. His devotion to the Koch brothers, while ignoring Republican voters, is the main reason for Trump’s success.
These “I did, but I didn’t” tactics are hurting him, not helping. If Trump had the ability to tell the truth, and talk about issues instead of playing attack dog 100 percent of the time, he might be able to reduce Hillary’s lead in the polls.
Sadly, Trump is not capable of using facts or intellect.
