Trump Is No April Fool's Joke

Because Trump's not part of the GOP crackpot Band, he's not politically correct within the finely attenuated right-wing circles where everyone knows you're never supposed to say out loud what he clumsily stumbled into it, that of course women would go to prison for getting an abortion in Republican-world. Even Mike Huckabee, who's been hoping some crumbs would fall his way from a Trump administration, was on Morning Joe admitting that Trump "handled that poorly… It was a terrible answer.

Herr Trumpf: "I'm Not A Settler"... He Is A Liar Though

The point of watching Herr's Trumpf's statement above is really to show whomever doesn't already know, that he's either delusional or a bold-faced liar... or both. We'll get to the lies in a moment. But if you've been watching TV as much as Herr Trumpf does, you've seen the "settler" ads he subliminally referenced a couple times in his statement. You noticed, right? "And you know what?

Remember When Paul Ryan Said He Was NOT Interested In Being Speaker?

Now he says he's not interested in running for president, not even to save his party-- not to mention his country-- from the monstrosity pictured just above.
