Trump would sound inarticulate at a Sarah Palin convention.

The man has such a limited vocabulary, and such poor ability to construct even basic sentences. How could this man have ever graduated from secondary level schooling, much less university level?

It was word salad idiocy on crack!

It still stuns me that Nicole Wallace and Steve Schmidt helped to select her for McCain! I think they both shake their heads too.

I am struck by how intelligent and aware they are. It truly makes no sense that either of them thought Palin was anything other than a pair of tits and nice legs (sorry...).

They are also good with geography.

Palin thinks Africa is a country and Trump recognizes the country of Nambia.

of Tina Fey as Palin on SNL. It always makes me laugh.

I also enjoyed the time that Fox was talking about her book "Going Rogue" and they had on screen the parody book "Going Rouge".

His fans wanted someone who would “shake things up. Drain the swamp.” He tells it like it is.

At least that is what they said they liked about him. I’m sure that at least a few of them are rethinking that now. But most are still deluded and under his spell. Brain washing is hard to wash out.

I don’t know how anybody can stomach being around him. Even his children must have to steel themselves to be near him. Believing you’ll enrich yourself and your wallet by to,resting him is a powerful motivator. Imagine being his wife? On second thought, don’t bother. It will just make you sick to your stomach and sick at heart. I hope Melania has an air tight agreement or she’ll struggle to make ends meet since she gave up her best years to be Mrs. Donald tRump. She might have to resume her soft porn career. Oh, the horror!

I really hope I live long enough to see how he is treated by historians. It is not going to turn out like he thinks it will.

A fifth-grader with his verbal construction skills would be held back for ten years.
