Someone needs to make an ad pointing out that there are currently over 20 countries whose leader is a woman. Based on the disrespect Trump showed Clinton and has shown several other women, how
would he treat the women who are leaders of other nations?

Also, if you have a son, do you want him to learn from Trump how to treat women? How to treat any other people for that matter -- interrupting, harassing, trying to intimidate, lying!

I consider lying to someone to be a serious form of disrespect. So, Trump is continually treating citizens of the US with great disrespect. I wonder how the dummies who support him feel about that.

other people, especially those he consideres lesser than himself, is really a window into his relationship with himself. He absolutely lacks any form of functioning moral compass. It would be virtually impossible for him to deal effectively with the eminently qualified women that currently lead their countries.

In history, male or female.

She's worked at the highest levels of the legislative and executive branch. Few have ever been able to make that claim while applying for this job.

I have British and Australian friends who think we (Americans) are completely insane for even giving the time of day to someone as reprehensible as Trump: "What is going on there? How does someone like Trump allowed to run for president?" etc.

And frankly, I'm at a loss for a good answer to those questions, as I ask them myself. Donald Trump? THAT Donald Trump? He's the presidential candidate of a major American political party. That fact in itself is thoroughly insane! What in hell IS actually going on, anyway?

"Sniff."

Donald SNIFF needs a hanky or something SNIFF.

When I was still working, that was symptomatic of heavy cocaine use. Not that it applies here, necessarily. I was working in the late 70s and 80s.

And he's ever so slightly making faces now. Tried to interrupt her - she held firm and kept the mic. GOOD.

Is execute things like a crystal nacht specticle in the United States against a pet scapegoat of his like Muslims.

I think that William Contrell who led the massacre of American men and boys in Lawrence, Kansas as a guerrilla officer of the Confederate South would be a representation of the sort of antics we would expect from a Donnie Trump as our first ever fully fascist POTUS.
