I don’t think they’ll do great. I think people are going to turn it on
for a couple of minutes and then fall asleep," Trump said. “I don’t want
to say this in a braggadocios way, but a person at CNN and a couple of
other people said, 'We have to put Donald Trump in this debate. We’re
going to die with it.”’

But Donnie …you are a braggart…we all know it. You should face it too. Donnie, you can’t run as a democrat and a republican. You’ve thrown your lot in with the idiots and you get to play with them.
So go play in the repub sand box…only check to be sure it was cleaned up after the neighborhood cats and dogs who visited it last night.

Mike, we watch what Donnie says and does cuz it holds the same fascination a slow motion car wreck does.
There was a time not so long ago when serious people ran for President. Now we’ve devolved to a stupidity powered clown car circus on one side and worry about an email server on the other.
Both sides should be ashamed about this.
The really depressing aspect of this is the press lets this shit go on. In any other election cycle I can remember (and my interest in politics goes back to 1956) the GOP slate would have been laughed out of existence long ago as not serious people.

Trump can’t stand that other people are gong to be the center of attention for a few hours. He has got to try and make it all about him,all the time. LOL!

Wrong audience, Don. We’re actually interested in reality-based solutions to non-made-up problems. Angry, arrogant bromides and empty faux-patriotic rhetoric are really more of a Republican thing. Which is why you’re running as one. And why we’re not that into you.

Without him ratings will be low.
Because that’s the way you pick the President of the Republic, by whoever gets the highest ratings.
We truly are becoming Ideocracy.

Well, he IS working for our side.

Some people say, they say, folks are saying, People say.
Dump is hearing shit, again.

34

Well, he’s right. Productive and intelligent discourse about nuanced topics is significantly less lively than watching a live telecast of a derailing train full of clowns being narrated by a gameshow host.

I think TPM might consider not devoting a separate column to each sentence Donald Trump spews out.
Respectfully submitted,

What? People will see candidates who are certifiably batcrap crazeeeee and thus fall asleep? We should be so lucky.

OK now I’ve decided, he know everything he says is total BS and is doing it just to show how ridiculous the whole election process. I know he’s not a great businessman, that’s he’s gotten rich only because he’s a tad bit smarter than the other suckes born on other minutes, but even as stupid as he is, he could not be even more stupid and believe the BS he says. He knows it’s totally made up.

How do you like my Tai Chi, Donald? Wanna see my "Golden Cockerel Pisses on its Left Leg Pose?

edit: Sorry Doremus. Meant to be a reply To Little Girl Blue.

Ha, Trump might be right. But, if Dems are smart, they will absolutely attack Trump and the Repugs, it will be almost as if he was there. In effigy at least.

And that will be what the media focuses on and it will be spun, by Fox, et al., that the country WANTS a GOP candidate and the “boring” Democratic Party isn’t “engaging” or “exciting”. Style over substance, it’s the low hanging fruit the media (and much of the country) chooses when it comes to election coverage.
