There's lots of overcompensating in evidence in these photos! At finger level, especially!

.... Clinton, the savvy politician, says "bring it on but I'm not going there". Trump will see that as weak. He'll see that as the woman thing. What he won't see is the double-whammy already arcing toward him, lobbed by the many who are sick to death of his ignorant, childish bullying.

What Trump still doesn't get--and maybe never will--is that for all his popularity he has many more haters than fans. Those thousands filling every venue, cheering him on, are the same thousands who filled Sarah Palin's venues, cheering her on whenever she went on the attack against the establishment. It fills a need, it satisfies an itch, clichéd beyond all reason ("I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!&quot , but it does nothing to change what most everyone sees as a dysfunctional government.

The way to make change is to get involved. In Trump's case, a first step might include a high school civics class. The GOP nominee for president has built his case for being president by showing the world it pays not to know anything about being president.

He aced the test, not by studying or giving the right answers, but by blasting everyone who tried to tell him he's not ready to graduate. He's the E-minus student running against the Valedictorian, having full confidence that he can bully his way to a diploma. ............


The high road isn't always an easy thing, but we are the better for the attempt. It is really easy to act like a grade schooler, just ask Trump.

The best Horatian satire often is. Though I'm given to understand it's lost on many people, who will rationalize that loss as "an adult sense of humor"

Sorry, but this is just not complete without a photo of his passionate love interest mounting him. The models should use protecion however, even though I'm sure Putin doesn't use it himself.

and for decades, according to Graydon Carter, Trump would send him pictures of himself (Trump) torn out of magazines, with his hand circled in gold sharpie and comments like "not so small are they!"
