MUST SEE. Trump further disqualifies himself--damning call-in to Morning Joe 20/05/16.





Just unbelievable. Even with the giddy guidance and cheerleading of Joe and Mika, he would not be deterred from showing his unhinged mind and loose cannon mouth.

Then, just before the end of the show, Kasie Hunt and Joe both had to show the Clinton campaign's instant response to Trump's BIG LIE of the day about his "objection" to engaging in Libya.

Quotation of Trump from 2011 saying (paraphrased): "We need to go in there and take this guy (Kaddafi) out".

He has to be destroyed politically. I'm no fan of Robert Gates but he was right to take on Trump for his reckless ideas on "what he doesn't know." I thought Gates had some very good points.

3. Gates was absolutely spot-on--the only adult on the set or the phone.

Trump is manifestly, constitutionally incapable of "pivoting" to any semblance of a Presidential stance or demeanor. Even HE is NOT that good of a bullshit artist.

Most people who have not been paying attention, and who only know him as a TV personality, will have a rude awakening if and when they start to asses him as Presidential material.

About the Nabisco moving operations out of the U.S.? He barked "No more Oreos for you!" right at Christie...

It was like the way Fredo was being slapped around by Moe Green in The Godfather.

8. How much more abasement will Christie allow from the mouth of the Donald?

The public mortification is a spectacle worthy of a Greek tragedy.
