Trump: "I promise you that I'm much smarter than Jonathan Leibowitz - I mean Jon Stewart...

[fried eggs]

Who, by the way, is totally overrated."

Trump isn't putting on an act. His bigotry and stupidity has been evident for years.

[Buzz Clik]

1. All this and anti-Semitic, too. What a national treasure.

[Arkansas Granny]

2. What an ugly, ugly human being. And his followers love it.

[onehandle]

3. His pool of voters is getting smaller every time he communicates something.

Hillary will kick his ass.

[Silver_Witch]

4. Something is seriously wrong with this man!

Seriously! And Bill Clinton and Hillary C!inton are friends with him. It is amazing how money can build strange bedfellows. Wonder if they regret that friendship now?

[immoderate]

10. Nothing wrong with Bill and Hillary?

Think before you answer.

21. Bill and Hillary Clinton won't be regretting their friendship with Trump...

...if he ends up putting them back in the White House.

[LibDemAlways]

5. Trump's bigotry and attempts to appeal to the worst

in his fans knows no boundaries. Did he forget that his daughter Ivanka is a convert to Judaism? Throwing one's own family under the bus for the sake of votes from morons is about as low as one can go.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

6. His campaign keeps refuting that they're supported by white supremacists...

And then he tweets or says something wholly antisemitic like this. And nobody calls him out on it during interviews.

Then again, Ted Cruz went there with his "New York Values" comments, too.

[gort]

7. What do you mean by that, Mr Drumpf?

Ooh, sorry I meant to say Trump.

[randome]

13. He's trying to get back at John Oliver by going after Jon Stewart.

[Johonny]

8. You don't have to promise a thing like that. You either are or you aren't smarter.

promises have nothing to do with it.

[Gothmog]

9. Trump is too stupid to know that he is stupid

[whatthehey]

11. More a generic statement than a specific one

But generally speaking anyone who routinely uses "smarter" to mean "more intelligent", without quoting Yogi bear, usuallly isn't.

[Democat]

12. Anti-semite?

What is wrong with Trump's supporters.

And why are so many of them allowed to post here on DU?

[USMaid]

14. What a putz

[smirkymonkey]

15. Not even close, Crazy Pants! This is absolute proof

that he is completely delusional. The man's opinion of himself is so vastly superior to the reality of who he is. He has no concept of humility.

[KamaAina]

16. His Jewish daughter and son-in-law could not be reached for comment.

[napkinz]

17. and next Trump will be telling us, "THE Jews love me"

he always uses THE when speaking about African-Americans, Hispanics, Muslims ... as if they're the "other"

Trump

[Solly Mack]

18. In his dreams, which are obviously taking place while he's awake.

I think we can call them delusions.

[phylny]

19. He is a bully, plain and simple.

Don't his remarks remind you of the sorts of name-calling insults bullies used in middle and high school?

He is a sick man.

[nemo137]

20. at the risk of dragging us into GDP-land, this is why I was never sanguine about BS in the general

We haven't seen the beginning of the ugliness.

[JHB]

22. Von Clownstick says what?

[Wounded Bear]

23. It's his schtick...

Like when he says "I'm not going to tell you how stupid/ugly/disgusting (insert name here) is. No, I'm not going to say anything about that. No, I'm not going to call (him/her) stupid and ugly. I'm not."

Anybody with an operating brain can see and hear what he's doing.
