I noticed something the other day when I saw a clip of Trump speaking... Normally, after a Veep candidate is chosen, a campaign puts out signs with both names, and it appears at the conventions, all their speaking engagements, in yard signs, etc. etc. etc. Usually, the two names are the same size, same font. Once in a while different colors. But same font, same size. Clinton/Kaine follows that pattern: https://shop.hillaryclinton.com/products/ticket-yard-sign (yard sign) The Sunshiny Wrath Of Tim Kaine: Clinton/Kaine Ticket Shines In Rousing Debut (podium sign) Here's Romney/Ryan: Romney & Ryan Believe in America US Flag Yard Sign Obama/Biden: http://www.theliberaloc.com/2012/06/07/obama-for-america-releases-new-television-advertisement-jobs/ McCain/Palin: 2008 United States presidential campaign yard sign for republican candidates John McCain and Sarah Palin Pictures | Getty Images You get the idea. That's the normal way of doing things. But not if you have a narcissist at the top of the ticket. If you have that, you get this: Official Trump-Pence 2016 Yard Sign (Set of 2) (yard sign) A Hard Look at the Trump-Pence Campaign’s Penetrating New Logo (aborted original design that made it clear Donald considered himself the top...) Trump invites Russia to hack Clinton to find deleted emails (podium sign) This is the usual design for Trump/Pence. Or should I say TRUMP/pence? That's the way you'll see it at any of their speaking engagements, etc. Yeah, it may seem like a little thing. I'm just saying I noticed it. And that a big man doesn't feel like he needs to do that. Of course, a big (or secure) man also doesn't feel like he needs to bring up his dick size, unprompted by any moderator, in his very first response to a question in one of the debates. Just sayin'.
Hardly surprising and, I believe, very indicative of many important things. (I was wondering if the penis size thing will be coming up in his debates with Hillary.)
Frankly, I was surprised they are even planned. I figured he would just out and out refuse (to be made a fool of.)
He's already setting up for it, complaining that they've been scheduled at the same time as NFL games (which has been true for over a year). He also said, at a rally yesterday, that the NFL wrote to him to complain about the scheduling (immediate denial from the NFL). The guy is mentally ill. There's no other explanation.
They also scheduled debates against football in 2012. It's just as much a bs excuse as "I can't release my taxes because they're being audited." When a reporter this week FINALLY asked the obvious question (why can't you release any of the many years that aren't being audited?), he actually said he was feeling "no pressure to do that." Sadly, that's more true than it ought to be. No question in my mind he'll weasel out of the debates. Unless he's considerably down in the polls, in which case he'll need something to move the needle and might do them. If it looks like he's trying to weasel out, we all need to start calling him "coward," "wimp," and other less-polite synonyms, on social media and try to make that the narrative. It's not that hard to get under his skin.
$20 for a yard sign is not a lot of money because it is the BEST yard sign. It's really great. I mean, frankly, there has never been a better yard sign. A lot of people are saying this, believe me. Do you know how much money Trump has spent putting his name on buildings? A LOT, let me tell you, believe me, okay? So for a lousy $20 bucks, your own lawn becomes a TRUMP lawn. It'll be just like TRUMP Plaza and TRUMP Tower and many, many other structures. GREAT structures. Your house will be worth much, much more with the TRUMP brand in front of it, let me tell you, okay?
