“Democrats suggesting stronger unions in the globalized world is as silly as Republicans suggesting the free market will bring down health care costs. These aren’t serious ideas - they are the stale bread crumbs of ideas left over from last century’s meal.”

When Trump insults women’s looks, don't buy into it by assessing the women's looks. After Trump called a reporter “Piggy,” some folks posted her photo. DON’T! Who cares what she looks like? Today, Trump called another reporter “ugly.” The issue isn't her. It's the ugliness in Trump's broken brain.
