Transcript:
Donald Trump: So people have been asking me, "Donald, shy are you having a major press event?" Fair question. And the answer is that people keep stopping me on the street saying, "Donald, we need you to take our country back from that Kenyan!" It's incredible! They've been begging me to use my unbelievable wealth to investigate the truth! It's crazy! Roland: How many people we talking here, sir? Donald Trump: Thousands! I'm mobbed! I can't even get a hot dog! It's incredible!

The “thousands” that he can count on the fingers on one hand!

A Trump rerun? That’s the best they can do?
One day GT should explain the joke behind the hair. It looks like it went through the climactic storm scene from “Captains Courageous.”

It is a swirling mass, that is all over the place, just like his position on most things.

I made a connection in LaGuardia shortly after Thanksgiving last year and saw a big jet parked there with his name on it.

“Trump” is english slang to break wind i.e. fart. Coincidence, I think not.

Would you?

Yes it’s a rerun. ’Til mid November, as he works on Alpha House. Sundays are new.
(Whenever I don’t post, someone asks…)

People who know better ask just to get our goat; best thing to do is ignore them.

In other news, isn’t it nice and peaceful in here…?
Given That TEA Party has vanished from the record as Guard SGT before him (“Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia…”), my guess would be he was suspended for a week and then told to come back and play nicely. Obviously an impossible task.
I hereby open the sweepstake on when his next sockpuppet will first appear, and claim 5 November (Guy Fawkes night, good British date…) as my guess.

“When is GT coming back from holiday?”
Please go back to, say, the beginning of September (use the little calendar icon above the last panel) and read the plethora of comments on the subject.

. . . or just take Astolat’s word for it.

Isn’t it funny how nobody questioned Obama’s citizenship when he ran for senator,but it somehow became an issue when he ran for president? And people were even debating the year his home state of Hawai’i became a state (1959-Obama was born in 1961)? Even debating whether it is a state??? Talk about insanity!

I have never been to a Tea Party meeting, but I have seen some websites. Not an “Official” website, but I’ve followed links to articles posted on Facebook. If ignorance scares you, seeing these sites would be terrifying!

I almost hope the GOP continues with the crazy for election, actually. They only had one decent candidate last time, Jon Huntsman. He didn’t get far.

I agree with kaffekup in that some are trying to bait others into an argument. It gives them pleasure in trying to upset. Don’t argue with fools. And yet, there could be another reason. They may have come from households in which arguing was the means of communication. TV’s “The Jeffersons” comes to mind. I read an informative book, “The Argument Culture” by Deborah Tannen, and I learned a couple things.

Mr Trump isn’t very popular with the locals where my mother lives in Aberdeen! But some good comes from most things, witness this song (in protest) about Mr Trump’s plan to build a hotel and Golf Course near Aberdeen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQMNRNWQifs

Remember Trump was the chief fundraiser for Willard the ChickenHawk. -No word yet on whether he believes Ted Cruz is eligible to be president.

Hmm, I see Tea-Party/Guard Sgt not only isn’t here today – but he’s not there yesterday either; his posts have disappeared, and my reply to one no longer has the “@TeaParty” at the top. Likely another outright ban. Astolat already grabbed Guy Fawkes day, so I’ll go with Nov.18, on the assumption GT starts regular dailies then and that lures out a new Tea/Guard sockpuppet.

It must be his real hair; with his money, he could afford a much better rug. On the other hand, if it’s the world’s most complicated combover, he could afford hair plugs…Maybe he just keeps it that way as a trademark.
