Never admit to an error, no matter how trivial. Boy, that’s what I want in my president!

So DT Jr. has been a great asshat to the campaign, good to know Jason.

…adding, “at least he objectified refugee vermin as sweet, colorful candies. Next time he will be less benevolent.”

“Only Donald Trump will do what’s needed to protect us.”

“And by ‘us’, I think all the good, Christian, White people of America know exactly who I mean.”

(Wink, wink.)

I’m still firmly on the “Hillary’s ‘deplorable’ comment is a genius” camp.

Drumpf, Donnie Jr, and their whole campaign wouldn’t know the truth if it bit them in the ass. Being truthful is a foreign language to them.

It’s a poor analogy for those of us who don’t eat refugees.

Then again, I’m not an elephant killer, so Jr. and I differ in some pretty significant ways.

They’ve got permanent eye damage from the glare off all of the gilt in their tasteless, overdone nouveau-riche (fake-o riche?) penthouse that other people’s money is paying for. They have lost the ability to see anything real…

The method is “never admit to an error and then attack.” It’s textbook Roy Cohn.

The campaign has not vigorously followed through on that line. (At least as far as I can tell–appreciate it if you prove me wrong.) I’d like to think they were picking a fight they knew they could win, but it seems they either had to redirect to deal with the pneumonia news or they see it as a mistake.

@elbobo, @pluckyinky, @thunderclapnewman, @daveyjones64 : A bit more than a week after the “deplorables” flap. Has the Clinton campaign used it as an opening or treated as a mistake?

@sooner: where? where?
