TRUMP EXPANDS ATTACKS TO INCLUDE GEORGE CLINTON



Unveiling a strategy that some Republican insiders deemed unwise, Donald Trump on Tuesday unleashed a blistering attack on George Clinton.

In a furious tirade at a rally in Youngstown, Ohio, the Republican Presidential nominee seemed to take his audience by surprise by tearing into Clinton, the founder of the legendary funk ensembles known collectively as Parliament-Funkadelic.

“Anyone who is knocking me for my locker-room banter has never heard ‘Atomic Dog,’ ” Trump told his audience. “It’s disgusting.”

“If I went around saying, ‘Why must I feel like that, why must I chase the cat, it’s the dog in me,’ the media would kill me,” he added.

Side A will be recordings of Sarah Palin--in the original, unaltered
Side B will be recordings of Donald Trump--in the original, unaltered

I just hope America keeps its sense of humor, because with candidates like these on national tickets, the joke is on us.
