Trump's antics remind me of every schoolyard bully

I remember from Grade School. And people are actually DUMB enough to vote for him? Cue the scene from the Wizard of Oz to her last words as she is melting: "What a world..what a world!"

smart kids in school. When I went to a 20 year class reunion, the only one I attended, those bozos were all still living in the small town where we were raised, working minimum wage jobs saying they had been screwed, they were jocks for heavens sake!

Love seeing her do this to a bully, for all of us!

Besides the minimum dead end jobs,many are on a first name basis with the County Jailer. But,it is someone else who caused their predicament.

but it was some one else that caused it. Just ask my mamma. That was the statement from one of the town bullies. Wow!! And I knew his mommy and she was a trip.

until later on when he thought about things. Expect the antiwoman bluster to get a lot worse over the next week or two.

All a bully ever really understands is a punch in the nose. The bloody nose tells him he can get hurt, too, so he goes off to find an easier victim. It's just unfortunate that Clinton can only deliver this rhetorically, a real life bloody nose is what he desperately needs.
