Trump goes on late-night Twitter tirade against Megyn Kelly, Jeb Bush

[240 is Back]

Trump's manic late-night tweets might turn into more impactful late-night bad decisions once he has presidential power.  Look at the wording ... "speaks Mexican"?


He also retweeted a follower who called Kelly a “bimbo,” something he also did earlier this month after the first Republican presidential debate.

Damn, he really is like the political version of Phil Heath.Not a single negative tweet can go by without him "defending" himself. Not a single feud can die down. 70-year old billionaires should not act like this.

...and there are people who seriously believe this man is exactly what the country needs in the White House. He's so petty and childish.

Can there be that many, though? Are there really enough people who can ignore how much of a disaster this would be? That remains to be seen.

and simple minded and lacking in impulse control

all things that apparently appeal to a large group of republicans (I won't say Republican voters because we don't know how this side show will do in an actual primary)

It doesn't reflect well on the party though that this guy is their front runner

Trump doesn't drink - so what is it?  Just insecurity?  his own sense of "have to prove myself?"  Or is he just that immature and implusive?

See, THIS is where voters should be scared.   He's 69 years old and he's ranting in the middle of the night.  Are we supposed to believe he'll be 70 years old, and magically develop some sense of self-control once he's president? 

Trump might just be immature and egomaniac... or he may be losing his marbles a little late at night.  Retweeting calling Kelly a bimbo?  WTF is that?   

And this is when everyone's sucking up to him - WAIT til NKorea is baiting him or Putin is testing him or china hits back.  Trump is this unstable, and he's winning by a mile.. what happens when he's losing a negotiation, or looking bad, sagging in polls, etc.   He doesn't seem like a good loser, and everyone loses at times.  I could see him enacting military action to satisfy his butthurt ego.

He will just complain that they are being unfair just like Megan Kelly and the dumbfounded dipshits who support him will be wondering why he is acting like such a whiny little bitch not realizing that he was that way the entire time

YES.  There can be that many.  We're seeing a lot of repub base voters, and many anti-establishment dem voters, that are so ill-educated on politics, on manners, on global issues, on the economy, and on the candidates themselves...

They're just voting for random, chaotic change.  To shake things up.  They want to just change everything in some delusion that it'll "fix everything".  Change for change's sake.  And it could be disastrous.  

They don't realize that a manic president can start wars, if he wants.  They don't catch on that 'mixing it up' on the world stage can result in some insane trade sanctions.  

They're stupid.  They're just plain stupid.  Anyone smiling at trump saying "hey, he's crazy, but change is good" is an outright buffoon.  Period.  And it's both repubs and dems doing it now.  They're ignorant and dangerous people, and they're all around us lol.

What possible gain does trump get from this?   Is he just plain crazy?

this is perfect entertainment for the dog days of summer.

I agree.  He doesn't know how to pick his battles.  Very fragile ego for such a powerful man.  There is no way that man is going to be president.

I dunno man... the repub field should be uniting, all of them boycotting a debate with such a loose-lipped, immature jackass.

but they're not - in fact, they're all "me too!" trying to move more toward trump, than away from him.

It looks like the hive is going to have to choose between the mothership and their schizophrenic queen soon. Mixed metaphor aside, it's gonna be phantasmagorical to see the GOP's staunchest mouthpiece battling with the nominee on a daily basis. And it will be daily. At the least. I suspect Fox would bend over at some point, though.

Very very rarely do I think anyone in modern politics is being 'sexist'.   Cain liked to get laid, he wasn't sexist.  These senators banging hookers - they just like to get laid.

Trump using the word BIMBO after making a 'bleeding from wherever' reference... I think this might be the rare time that dude really is hating on kelly using the female thing as a real basis for it.   Chuck Toad challenged trump, talked a ton of shit, and trump said he was honored to be there, on the last interview.  Kelly hasn't said anything in 2 weeks, and he calls her a bimbo?
