When your president all the things you do get amplified to 11. Your critics don't shut up. In the case of Trump the train wreck is unavoidable if he wins and the taint of being associated with him will be a taint that never comes off.

I have to believe that the roasting Pres. Obama gave tRump at the White House Correspondent's Dinner a couple of years ago had something to do with his decision to run. He has to show that awful black man pretending to be President that nobody insults the Donald and gets away with it.

Inside the Night President Obama Took On Donald Trump

“It was April of 2011. For weeks, Donald Trump had been fanning the flames of the 'birther' movement and attacking President Barack Obama on television — demanding that Obama produce his birth certificate, implying that he was not born in the United States, and questioning both his religious identity and the legality of his presidency.

But on April 30, the tables were turned. Trump was the recipient of President Obama’s jokes at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner — and Trump political adviser Roger Stone tells FRONTLINE in The Choice 2016 that the dinner was a turning point for Trump.

'Donald dreads humiliation and he dreads shame, and this is why he often attempts to humiliate and shame other people,' author Michael D’Antonio tells FRONTLINE. 'This is a burning, personal need that he has to redeem himself from being humiliated by the first black president,' D’Antonio adds in the final moment of the film’s opening sequence.

Premieres Sept. 27 at 9 p.m. EST/8 p.m. CST on PBS stations nationwide."

you can see the origins of her nonsensical utterance. She is just as much an opportunist as he is but didn't inherit the kind of money that he did, let alone have his advantage of being white and male.

Opportunists are "users". They identify circumstances where they feel they can benefit and act on them, no matter how unethical or unsavory. Most fail eventually (see Christie) and she will too, but those who have already developed an exit strategy will move onto something else.

I've seen his loudmouthed supporters paraphrasing this stuff online; everyone WILL kneel to Trump, he WILL become President, you can do NOTHING to stop it, etc. Truly frightening.

I still believe Clinton will pull off the win, and I cannot wait to open champagne and see the infuriated reactions by the Trump minions, the nastiest, most unpleasant, distasteful and morally disgusting people I have ever come across.

I'd like to think they'll slither back into the sewer then, but they won't. They'll be moaning "Clinton Foundation... Benghazi.... Email Server... Bill raped every single female on the planet... Vince Foster...." and on and on for decades.

But they won't be anywhere NEAR the White House (in terms of holding political power) so I can live with that!

There are certain flavors of crazy that are tolerable to the General Population in our politicians, and 'Make me King' ain't one of them.

In that video from Right Wing Watch about the Exorcism done on Trump to dispel those satanic influences. That video was posted today on DU - take a look. Maybe that is her, and she, being the director of Trump's black outreach program, had to go along for the ride on that one, even though she really hated being there... Am I imagining things, or is that really Omarosa behind the Donald?

Omarosa worked in the office of then-Vice President Al Gore during the Clinton Administration as a scheduling correspondent.[21] Omarosa has since falsely inflated her role in interviews to have the title Deputy Associate Director of Presidential Personnel.[21] According to a People magazine article, she was transferred due to disruptive behavior.[21]
