19. Grandpa gaffed and everybody freaks out.

The Trump Campaign shouldn't go down this rabbit hole. They'll be taken to school;

Remember this;

“What do you have to lose by trying something new, like Trump?” he asked a crowd in Virginia on Saturday. “You’re living in your poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs, 58 percent of your youth is unemployed — what the hell do you have to lose?”

I'll invite Joe Biden to the Barbeque before I invite a Black Trump Supporter.
