That medical tent’s gotta be the Studio 54 of pain killer injections. These guys are being dragged in and cartwheeling out and onto the field.

Everything Donald Trump says is for his voter base. Everything he does is for his donor base. His first term taught him that his voters only pay attention to what he says, so he can actively rob them to pay his friends and they’ll still support him as long as he yells at the people they hate.

If every time you look at a place it’s burning down, that should probably tell you something about your source.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

100%. I would overpay for all these shirts.

Portland's famous Unipiper was spotted at the Portland ICE protest where he played his bagpipes in front of Santa, Mr. Potato Head, Garfield and more -- all while surrounded by bubbles.
