Insult-a-palooza

Watched the Sunday morning shows yesterday and got a big kick out of the Trump surrogates (including his VP choice) pretending they were shocked (shocked!) at the language Hillary used to prove Trump has been delivering racist dog whistles (by using his own words against him). All of them said some variation of this: "Mr. Trump would never engage in personal attacks like that".

I give the interviewers credit for not laughing out loud.

Here's a list of 258 people Trump has personally attacked (including the attacks themselves)...and that's just on Twitter. Take away personal attacks from Trump and he literally has nothing at all. It's what he does all day and night. It's part of his DNA. And these are not policy attacks. They are fourth grade playground "I know you are but what am I" attacks.

It's got to be tough to be a Trump surrogate. You can almost see them thinking "Why did I agree to do this?"
