Trump?...Insults nothing but insults?

Sep 16, 2015 5:13AM PDT

and a lot of ego.

Donald Trump vs. the Republican establishment. Not a fair fight

Rand Paul, says Trump, "reminds me of a spoiled brat without a functioning brain."

Rick Perry "should be forced to take an IQ test."

Senator Lindsey Graham, another candidate for the GOP nomination, is a "stiff," a "loser" and "not as bright as Rick Perry."

Jeb Bush, the former governor of Florida and an establishment favorite, is "weak" and "terrible."

Carly Fiorina, the former Hewlett Packard CEO, is physically unattractive: "Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that?" (Combed-over and running to fat, Trump truly has no sense of irony.)

His closest rival, Ben Carson, is "an OK doctor," but not as religious as he claims, and maybe not even very smart. (Carson is a famed neurosurgeon who once separated twins conjoined at the head.)

And on, and on.


The "circus" comes to town tonight.

Discussion is locked

perhaps you should have also posted all the insults that were hurled at Trump from the very beginning, not only by the liberal media which were pretty brutal, but also from many of those candidates running.

Let the games begin.......will you be watching the debate? If so, perhaps many of those who will be watching are going to watch BECAUSE of Trump just as they did for the first debate, which brought in the largest audience in history.

Those who mock Trump should watch out

It may just well be that, without "the Donald" as the headliner, far fewer would attend the show and get to know how good some of the other performers are. I can't count the number of times I've been more impressed by the warm-up act than the featured performer.

What would they do if he just decided to skip that debate, or a next one?

Could happen......when he's done playing with the public/media.

But I don't think he's done yet.....

When people have "ALL THAT MONEY" they have to amuse themselves some how.

I look at him as a really rich, real life troll..the internet doesn't quite cut it with the Donald.

Questions will be asked tomorrow...a quiz?

and you'd actually listen before giving your take on what happened? Devil made me do it.

It's going to be past my bedtime so guess I'll need to just catch the media spin later.

I can only predict certain events...I predict there will be insults...I just don't know what they will be.

Any statements I comment on...will have been made BEFORE I comment on them.

I will NOT comment on statements that were not made.

It's going to be past my bedtime

You should be finished eating by now and laying on the couch headed for the Land of Nod (sleep) Wake up in a couple hours Bright Eyed and Bushy Tailed.

That's what I do.

They are more about the questioners than the candidates. If I want to see or play a game of "Gotcha", I come here.

You 'kinda have to'????????????
Sep 16, 2015 11:51AM PDT

No, you don't 'have' to.........questions where? Here at SE? Will you actually have the correct answers to them or will you actually do what you normally do..........ask nonsense questions rather than answer anything.

You want me to do your job?

I did find this, BUT they were hurled BACK at him HE threw the first rock.

Link is from July so...there's a lot that's not included...he was just getting warmed up back then.

Perhaps you'll have better luck finding insults that were thrown FIRST by OTT (other Than Trump).

I think his tongue has some bite marks on it.
