Blacks are 13%, Latinos are 17% but women are 50%. You can't go shitting on half the country REPEATEDLY and come out roses. Also rofl that quote | ||

Gives Trump enough time before the debates to pick out a few choice quotes.Expect him to mention Clintons "dream" for open borders (Speech to Banco Itau in May 2013) Nothing was really leaked though... no gotcha comments or scandals or really anything of any substance. Way too much hype for nothing. | ||

I guess after the hundredth sexist comment or action by Trump, people have had enough. | ||
