Saddam Hussein is trending.

[SaschaHM]

Why? Because Donald Trump felt it was necessary to praise him during his North Carolina speech tonight (after accusing Loretta Lynch of accepting a bribe.)

This is the Republican nominee for President.

1. Well, that is certainly jumping the shark...

[BlueNoMatterWho]

3. We've certainly said that a few times here before...

11. Right? If anyone is pouring Bailey's on their cereal every morning

It's gotta be that guy.

14. I love that he took the speakership expecting not to have to deal with any of the

House Freedom caucus's craziness and now he has to deal with Trump's.

2. I wonder how Harvard feels...

... being equated with terrorists?

[SaschaHM]

6. I want to read into it

since Malia Obama is going to Harvard. I wouldn't put it pass Trump to try and sling that one, but I don't think he is smart enough to dog whistle it. He's more used to the foghorn.

9. Excuse me what?

[DawgHouse]

13. I didn't watch his whole speech but I did catch this part!

He said Hussein knew what he was doing when he killed terrorists. He seemed to admire him quite a bit.

15. I have stopped shaking my head at Donald Trump

if I continued, my head will fall off.

16. Because EVERYONE knows that the US invaded Iraq because Saddam harbored al-Qaeda.

Good to see everyone getting on-board.
