It is no coincidence that Mr. Trump is a 2013 inductee to the WWE Hall of Fame (yes, seriously). The Hall of Fame Committee must have concluded that Mr. Trump is a master faker and entertainer.

P.S. My apologies if you thought wrestling was real.

But, but...are you saying the Donald is not real?
How could that be, I mean he is on "reality" TV?

Apologize for what?

Stating the obvious?

In what world is handing out 20,000+ tickets for a 1,400 seat venue not asking for trouble?

Maybe they had to wear the "Trump" sweatshirts like the red one that fat guy was wearing in an interview on the news... You know, the guy who said he didn't have to think because Trump was doing it for him.
Edit to add: I think I was that on the PBS News hour, so probably most people here didn't see that. After all, one of the funding sponsors for that program is the National Endowment for the Arts, and I understand that isn't real popular among republicans.

I'm thinking it may be more like an inability to count on his part... perhaps part of the reason he had to go through 4 bankruptcies?

I learned not to waste my time responding to left leaners.

Let these dem lovers vote for their dem candidate and if he or she wins let them get the suffering they deserve because obviously they haven't suffered enough with Obama and Obamacare premiums/deductables and the illegals and the rest that goes with that.

They'll never learn and no use trying to reason with "liberals".

Nice try buddy. Wanting to sneak in as Trump "supporter" then start screaming? You are busted. It was amusing that the guy was crying over not being able to get in while dripping with despise for Trump. One of them said she stood in line for 6 hours. That is one determined heckler. So now we know there was an effort to scoop up tickets while supporters are left out in the cold. Kudos to event organizers.
