I thought throwing tomatoes was a great American tradition. What do I know.

My only problem with this is it should have been a cream pie.

Even glitter would’ve been preferable. Now that would have been just Fabulous. Would have been a hell of a thing to get out of that rat’s nest he has sitting on his head though.

He took the tomato pretty calmly, actually. The thing to do is fly an eagle at him, he can’t handle that.

He really is a chickenshit in real life. I think the guy is having a mini-meltdown actually. The Iowa caucuses are freaking him out, even if he does come off like he’s confident he has it in the bag. If he doesn’t have it sewn-up when they call in the votes, he’ll be exposed for the pompous ass he really is, and all that braggadocio will have suffered its first real blow. He might even have to tone it down a bit on the bluster…but somehow I just can’t see that in the cards.

How did they tell which was the tomato and which was his head?

Stupidity like this only helps Trump. You don’t stoop to his level. Grow up.

I feel sorry for the thrower, he was only trying to make ketchup so the local school children could have their vegetable of the day, Reagan style!

I think so too. And of course he’s petulant and a bully on a good day. Just read an interesting piece that says this boycott stunt, if he goes through with it, vastly increases the stakes for Iowa. If he wins the state, he’ll look even more bulletproof, but if he loses, he’ll look like a blundering fool.

Pfft. No arm at all. A lot more practice and a lot more ammo would have served him better if his goal was for his arrest to totally have been worth it.

Now that dude who threw his shoes at Bush, now there was a guy with an arm. If GWB hadn’t had years of baseball to train “OHFUCK!!DUUUCK!!!” into his muscle memory, the shoe thrower would have nailed him. But he had no way of knowing that there’s no sport on Earth that trains the duck reflex like American baseball. If W. had grown up playing soccer, he’d have taken both of those shoes right on the fizz. I confess I was grudgingly impressed.

Good article. The media letting him off the hook and allowing him to get away with such extreme behavior has led him towards moral hazard. This could prove to be his Achilles heel.

Better arrested than beaten and stomped by the Trump Sturmabteilung.

Thats assault! He could set an example through the judicial system that that sort of nonsense is unacceptable and there is no place our society for it! That person could face some serious financial woes if Trump looks to punish for such a poor decision…

MattinPA: If he wins the state, he’ll look even more bulletproof, but if he loses, he’ll look like a blundering fool.

if he loses he’ll claim he woulda won if he debated. but he had to take a principled stand against fox’s unfairness to him. this is getting curious. how does trump think that being on the outs with the fux republican news network is a good thing? is it arrogance or the meltdown thingy?
