(On edit I changed what to the inattentive might be taken for fact. Yet it tracked with the Alex=Jones type of wacko theory.)

(64,030 posts)That's how ugly talking points get started. If people believe trump said it, they'll believe it's true because they think trump never lies.

(64,030 posts)Promoted. Why bring up something from 2014 you and I know is absurd, but birthers and trumpers will want to push now?
I'm not seeing the rush to caption trump on this, probably because it's so serious an allegation.
Sorry, skip fox, nothing personal. But it pains me to see that bogus crap resurrected.

(19,502 posts)This is already out there. The wackos are at it.
I usually hate anything that smells of censorship, but in this case (and knowing how people don't understand satire), I did change it. But note this fecal sludge is Trump's daily diet. He listens to Alex Jones religiously. (And that's useful knowledge.)

(19,502 posts)The CAPTION has to provide enough context so that everyone will understand the issue/event/occasion/etc.
The CAPTION should provide a peek into the subject's true self. (In my original post, I wrote something I that felt Donald Trump would like to say if he thought he could get away with it.) Or I try to exaggerate the absurdity of the subject's thinking (As in the new OP). Or I try to show the hypocrisy of the subject. Etc.
The CAPTION should reflect the subject's speech patterns, verbal tics, etc.
The CAPTION should be funny (even if wry, Stewartesque, or Doonesbury-lite, etc.)
The CAPTION should give some important information about the subject's thinking.
So I don't write these flippantly.

(34,845 posts)"Many people say the GOP hates me because I'm my own man and I don't take any prisoners but those people are stupid. They're stupid. And they're illiterate. They can't read as good as me if their life depended on it. It's a fact. Why does the English language only have five vowels? See how easy it is to propose a question? No one else thinks about stuff like this. No one. I'm an outside-the-box thinker. I'm so far outside the box you can't even see it anymore. It's gone. Kaput. Finished. Just like ISIS will be once I get my hands on some missiles!"

You're always fulfilling all the conditions of a good CAPTION, especially the humor. Part.

(25,769 posts)That's right I've given out two awards in the same year. I know, I know you're saying Donald you can't have two MVPs. You can't. If you're the most valuable player then the other person can't be most valuable too. It's like you're perverting the meaning of the word most. I get it. I'm just saying it's a split award this year. Two gold metals and a bronze. I don't know who gets the bronze. Perhaps Jimmy Carter. It might be him. I just know most people are saying that John Kerry is like the Cy Young of ISIS. I'm not saying he is, but people are saying. My good friend John Miller says it. People say it. Good people say it. I have the best people and they say this.
