So, this type of phlegm is what fmr Pres Trump would base his decisions upon should he return to the Oval office?

Apparently his supporters seem to lap it up.

Elderly dementia patient yells at clouds.

When you look at where this lie came from it was Stephen Miller. He had an epic meltdown being interviewed by a member of the press when he repeated the lie that crime is non-existent in Venezuela because they are sending all their criminals here. The reported asked him where he got his numbers from and Miller lost his shizzle screaming about people being murdered and crime is out of control in the US because of the immigrants. He would never answer the question posed and became increasingly unhinged about the question of where did you get your data.

Pee Wee German was coaching donOLD for the debate with Tulsi, so you know this is where he got this lie.

They are pathetic.

Didn't fact check that.

Apparently? No, with certainty. I have been asked multiple times what I know about it.

Many people are saying that Gullibility is a prized trait for a world leader. My friends in world leadership, including Mr. Xi, Li'l Kim, Vladimir Putin (I like to call him Vlad), and Viktor Orban all say that the best leaders are gullible...

Racist Trump aide Stephen Miller was spreading his own nonsense, yelling at reporters as he refused to answer a specific question.

VIDEO:

I asked Stephen Miller, one of Donald Trump's top advisors, what is the evidence for saying that Caracas and Venezuela are safer than the United States. He began by answering that it is the government's numbers. I asked him if he trusted Maduro's numbers. And this was his ... pic.twitter.com/qkXTNiGmt0

Campaign Manager Miller looks pretty stupid out there mouthing off when it turns out this is one apartment property that couldn't pass an inspection in Haiti, much less in Colorado.

Stephen Miller should move to Caracas.

Good riddance to that wannabe Nazi.

Stephen Miller is not only racist, he's sounds as deranged as Donald Trump. Also, the story about Venezuelan gang members has been debunked by Colorado.

Stephen Miller is a 21st century version of Joseph Goebbels and Heinrich Himmler.

One spreading propaganda (Goebbels), the other (Himmler) eager to get the jack boots on the street arresting "others" and anyone else who'd dare criticize Trump.

Don't tell BullBringer.

He's sure Colorado is burning down and immigrants have taken over our southern states.

Not rumors as FoxNews for says before the debate was showing the footage form the hallway coms of the complex, Then again, likely the dem media may never shown that footage of the armed gang invasion.

I saw the footage. I also did not see anything illegal being done in the footage I saw. No one was shot. No one was assaulted. Just a bunch of dummies carrying long guns around like redneck bad arses like to do.

Isn't Colorado an open carry state?

Why are you complaining about laws you support? This is the Wild West America that you wanted isn't it? With everyone able to carry weapons openly everywhere? Heck it was in a hallway not even in a Walmart this time. What was the exact problem you are worried about?

Was it possibly because of the color of the persons who were open carrying those weapons?

Interesting how Trump and the right aren't mentioning that Aurora is run by conservatives.
