They constantly sound like a kid trying to meet a word count on an essay.

Even News Nation has to corner him.

If a candidate tells you what would happen if the other nominee is elected - and it happens just like she said - by definition you cannot say she ran a bad campaign.

This huge, brown straw man will kill you instead of your insurance company.

How dare people investigate my crimes!

You guys fucked up your own party so bad it abandoned democracy. Now you're gonna tell us to cut taxes, too?

Maybe setting up government by people who must cling to power to avoid jail wasn't the best route.

He has absolutely no concept of caring about the people you represent.
