Trump? Harumph
By Laurie Baron
LONDON, United Kingdom—Sheldon Adelson endorsed Donald Trump because he’ll be good for Israel. Sheldon, aren’t you a bit concerned about whether he will be good for the United States?
*
Hillary Clinton released a campaign advertisement featuring clips of former Republican presidential candidates denouncing Donald Trump. Trump retaliated by releasing the same advertisement but ending with Him commenting: “What a bunch of losers!”
*
Paul Ryan has declared he is not ready to endorse Donald Trump. Is he waiting for Trump to have a personality transplant?
*
Yes, Hillary Clinton is a career politician who is too Hawkish and pragmatic and who has made errors in judgment like putting her State Department emails on a private server, but she is the only person standing between sanity and lunacy.
* It was announced that Donald Trump will testify at his trial on the charge that he defrauded students who enrolled in Trump University. If he manages to get elected president, someday he might have to testify at his trial for defrauding the American electorate.
