Donald Trump Wishes Hillary Clinton A Quick Recovery--Huffington Post


Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump took a gracious tack on Monday, wishing Hillary Clinton a speedy recovery from a bout of pneumonia that has forced the Democratic nominee to cancel a fundraising trip to California this week.

“The coughing fit was a week ago, so I assume that was pneumonia also ― I would think it would have been ― so, something’s going on. But I hope she gets well, gets back on the trail and we’ll see her at the debate,” Trump said in a Monday interview on Fox News.

In a separate interview on CNBC on Monday, Trump called news of Clinton’s illness “quite sad” and said he did not revel in it.

“I don’t take satisfaction. ... I hope she gets well and I hope she gets well soon. But, you know, it was ― it was quite sad, to be honest with you,” he said. “I hope she gets well soon. No satisfaction, believe me, whatsoever.”

North Korea bans sarcasm

North Korea bans sarcasm because Kim Jong-un fears people only agree with him ‘ironically’


North Korea has forbidden people from making sarcastic comments about Kim Jong-un or his totalitarian regime in their everyday conversations.

Even indirect criticism of the authoritarian government has been banned, Asian media reported.

Residents were warned against criticising the state in a series of mass meetings held by functionaries across the country.

“One state security official personally organised a meeting to alert local residents to potential ‘hostile actions’ by internal rebellious elements,” a source in Jagang Province told Radio Free Asia’s Korean Service.

The caution was also issued in neighbouring Yangang Province, sources revealed.

Officials told people that sarcastic expressions such as “This is all America’s fault” would constitute unacceptable criticism of the regime.

“This habit of the central authorities of blaming the wrong country when a problem’s cause obviously lies elsewhere has led citizens to mock the party,” an anonymous source said.

Another mocking expression, “A fool who cannot see the outside world,” was also said to be circulating in the totalitarian state, referring to the country’s notoriously isolationist leader.

The phrase was apparently conceived when officials voiced shock that Mr Kim did not attend celebrations held in Russia and China to mark the end of the Second World War.

Regional media have reported an increase in public acts of dissent in the country of late. Graffiti mocking the government and its leader have appeared twice in recent weeks.

Hillary Clinton Calls Out RNC Chairman For Telling Her To Smile

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/hillary-clinton-smile_us_57d16d90e4b00642712bc259?


Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton took a hit at Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus on Thursday, the day after he tweeted that the presidential hopeful should have smiled more during a televised forum.

In a tweet posted after NBC’s Commander-In-Chief forum, Priebus criticized Clinton for having “no smile” while talking about foreign policy.

Clinton brushed off Priebus’ comments during a press conference, saying she didn’t smile during the forum because she was talking about serious issues.

“I don’t take anything seriously that comes from the RNC,” Clinton said.

She also criticized Republican nominee Donald Trump for praising Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Maybe he did it with a smile, and I guess the RNC would have liked that,” Clinton said.

* So sexist. What is this crud about women have to smile all the time wtf?*

Taken from, 'Is Ivanka for real'

Not long after her parents’ very public, very mortifying divorce, an adolescent Ivanka Trump sat with her father in the back of his private plane, waiting to leave New York for Palm Beach. The doors were closed and the engines were on, but they were still missing Marla Maples. Donald’s second wife—the woman he had left Ivanka’s mother for—was late. She was always late. This drove Donald crazy.

They were just about to take off when Ivanka spotted a distressed Marla rushing toward the plane. Ivanka tapped Donald to alert him to the figure on the tarmac below. Maybe, she thought, he could tell the pilot to cut the engines. But Donald merely raised his hands. Pretty soon his wife was just a speck on the ground.

“Come on, Dad,” Ivanka said, once they were airborne. “She’s just five minutes late.”

“No, Ivanka,” he replied. “You have to be on time.”
