How do we know little trumpy wasn't born in his mother's home town in Scotland. After all, it is far more likely that a women would return to her place of origin to give birth than it is for an American woman to go the third world country of her huband.
Let's see that birth certificate, trumpy, than we can all spend years suggesting it is a forgery.

Trump as the Wizard of Oz
"Don't look at the man behind the curtain, look over there!"
Remember that line from the Wizard of Oz, when Toto pulled down the curtain revealing the Wizard as a fraud? That's what little trumpy reminds me of. He doesn't want us to look at his faults, he wants us to look at Hillary instead.
In truth, everything he says about Clinton is true of trumpy in spades! What we know of his business dealings are all bad, bankruptcies, lawsuits, shady characters as partners. He doesn't reveal his taxes which might shed light of his business practices. He inflates the significance of minor transgressions on the part of Clinton in hopes that no one will pay attention to his major transgressions.
He says Clinton is secretive. Clinton? We know all about Clinton and most of it is good. We know what she stands for, she stands for the little guy, the children. She has a track record going back years. Trumpy is late to the party, he has no track record in public policy and he changes his stance from week to week. We have no idea what we would get with him as president. We do know that he admires autocrats and himself. We know that he loves money, his own, and wants more of it. That seems like a very dangerous combination to me.
Do we really want a con artist, a fraudster as leader of our great nation. I hope not, what would it say about the United States were we to elect him? What would it do to our standing in the world? Make America great? No, it would make a laughing stock out of this great nation.

It's a Woman Thing.
I know, little trumpy will use Hillary's pneumonia as another excuse to say she is not "tough enough" to be president. It is a common prejudice of men to call women the weaker sex. Weaker?
Ok, maybe women don't have the muscles that men do but what they do have is endurance. They have to. They spend nine months carrying another person around inside their bodies and another 12 to 24 months carrying that person around on their hips, back or front. In many parts of the world women travel miles to get water and wood which they haul home on backs or heads for their families.
When a woman is sick most don't have the luxury of staying in bed. Women routinely get out of a sick bed to feed their families and do household chores. They pop a few aspirin or Tylenol tablets so that they can get the kids to school, shop for groceries and run other necessary errands.
In many households women work eight hours at paying jobs (usually earning less than a man). When they get home they then make dinner, do laundry, clean house and care for the kids. Too often the big, tough man is sitting in front of the tube.
Perhaps that is why Hillary kept going, saying nothing, it's just what women do. It's a woman thing.
Before you guys get your knickers in a twist, I know, many men get up and go to work when they are under the weather, but would trumpy? I doubt it.

trump--Ventriloquist's Dummy?
I've been watching little trumpy give some speeches lately. I find it interesting that the man who used to ridicule others now uses written speeches to look presidential. Who writes these speaches? These speaches sure don't sound like trumpy.
When there is no teleprompter available he runs his finger down the page so as not to lose his place, rather like we did in elementary school when first learning how to read. Is he afraid if he diverges from the text give by his handlers that they will get angry with him and scold him? We know that trumpy doesn't like criticism, it brings out the worst in him.
So I wonder, if trumpy is elected which would we get, the ventriloquist's dummy parroting the thoughts of others or the real dummy?

The Clinton Foundation Controversy
Trumpy keeps railing against Hillery and the Clinton Foundation. I've been reading everything I can find and I don't understand the problem. As far as I can tell, the Clintons receive no financial gain from it, it is a charity. Do trumpy and his minions think that no one in government should talk to anyone who donates to the American Red Cross, The National Park Foundation, The Wounded Warrior Project or any of the many charities to which the wealthy donate.
I don't believe I ever heard any criticism of Bob Dole when his wife was president of the American Red Cross but then we didn't have folks combing through e-mails trying to dig up dirt on the Doles.
Trumpy seems to be reaching pretty far to substantiate his claim of "Crooked Hillery" the fact is there is really nothing there. Hillery and Bill haven't been sued for non-payment of debts nor have they declared bankruptcy leaving others holding the bag for there mismanagement as trumpy has done. No, if trumpy wants to find a crook he can just look in the mirror.
If you want to know what the Clinton Foundation does you can learn more from this NPR story.

trump in an Alternate Universe
I'm not sure what universe trump lives in but it sure isn't the one I live in. Little that he says has any resemblance to the real world, the one most of us know. Even trump's supporters, if they really think about it, put aside there fear and prejudice would have to admit that his view of the world is hopelessly warped.
He seems to think that the United States of America is a weak, failed state. The rest of the world knows that we are strong and look to us to defend them. True, trump's friend Putan would like to weaken us, take over as number one and if trump were to win he might have a chance for little trumpy is hopelessly out classed in world affairs by even the weakest foreign leader.
He seems to think that our nation is so dangerous we are all afraid to leave our homes. While it is true that some communities do have a problem with crime those are often minority communities, communities in which trump has little interest. Now, I am an old lady, I don't live in gated community but I do live in a senior community. Sure, we do have the occasional break in, things stolen from unlocked cars but am I afraid to go out alone after dark to take a walk? No! That's another thing little trumpy doesn't understand, Americans are not a paranoid, fearful people. There has always been crime and there always will be but we do not live in fear.
He thinks that our President isn't interested in protecting us from terrorism. Strange, it seems that it was the Obama administration that tracked down and killed Bin Laden, it has been the Obama administration that has been systematically tracking down and killing terrorist leaders for years.
I know that the economy is not what we would like, that many people can't find full time work or work commensurate with their experience and education. Does anyone really think that trumpy would change that? He's the firer not a hirer. When Obama became president the children of many of my friends were unemployed, now the have jobs. I see "now hiring" signs in local stores and read that places like Starbucks and Walmart are raising wages.
I think that living in his Ivory Tower little trumpy has little knowledge of the world the rest of us live in but he is the master of manipulation. This old lady has no intention of being manipulated (well, maybe buy my grandson, but he's special).

I'm Rubber, You're Glue
When I hear trump's vitriol spewing against Hilary Clinton I think of the old school yard saying "You're rubber, I'm glue, everything you say against me bounces of me and sticks to you"
It is trump who has left a trail of lies and crooked dealings through out his career. It is trump who has been accused of defrauding the students of trump University. It is trump who declared corporate bankruptcy and left contractors holding the bag. It is lying trump, crooked trump, deceitful trump who has been nominated by the Republicans. Small minded trump deserves no caps in his name, he is a small man who would bring down the United States of America to his level if he were to be elected.
