4. I think he was acting up,...

.... and poppa Fred tossed him out of his private helicopter up about 400ft and Donnie's head got bounced off the blacktop street or concrete sidewalks a few hundred times.

His brains are not scrambled,... it seems like they are more pureed and then strained through a coffee filter or cheese cloth then poured back in his left ear or maybe a nostril.

Something about that boy - ain't just right !

9. And that exhibits "retardation"? Kinda trivializing a class of people with that word, aren't you ...

and I'm not talking about Fox viewers or Trump supporters.

There's nothing voluntary about "retardation".

in our house, and uses those sort of pics to make their point... Out on their ass and wouldn't be allowed back until they figured out why on their own and made a sincere apology. I can't believe this OP is being allowed to stand.

People admitting they're actively campaigning against Democratic candidates instead of trump. This weird trump post demeaning people with brain injuries and the people who think it's great to ridicule them. Came home from work and landed in the damn twilight zone. Glad to see one sane voice in the darkness on this one. Thank you.

17. Its the primary season. Expect enthusiasm to over-ride some brains until the convention.

Like making childish fun of Trump when there's really nothing funny about him and there are many, many real things to go after him about.

I have taken care of children who exhibited this syndrome and there is nothing funny about it. So, I am not getting the 'humor'. trump is evil, he's not a victim of abuse. Especially that shit first picture.

life. She's not! She suffered brain trauma as a child and has challenges. Like I said, anyone utters that word in our home, is asked to leave and I don't even tell them why. Luckily, it's only happened one, because everyone who knows us well, knows our feelings and would dare utter that word in our home.
