Profiles in Perfidy. . . . Please come CAPTION PresiDented Trump!!!




Donald (Sphincter-Man) Trump is saying: "And then that brainless moron-manikin, Mitt Romney, all of a sudden gets religion and uses it falsely to go against me, America, and even God himself. . . . He claims that faith made him vote the way he did, but he clearly doesn't have a relationship with God like all of the other Republican senators or he would have voted like them. . . . But the truth is that Mitt Romney doesn't know God from Alfred E. Newman!"

speech patterns &c. and then stretch the sense into the outrageous. Just like a skit on SNL. The problem these days though: it's getting damn hard to be more outrageous than life.
