When asked to contribute something, Trump said “Tiffany? That sweetpiece bartender down at...what’s that place? No? Oh Tiffany. Marla’s kid, yeah. Nice kid. Sure, I’ll say something nice. Remind me later.”

Aka -she never got molested by Donald.

Tiffany,

“I had the blessing of raising her pretty much on my own,” Ms. Maples said.

Anyone else feel like, really bad for her? I know’s she’s probably enjoyed fabulous wealth all her life but still.

“Tiffany is a tremendous young woman with a big and beautiful heart. She was always a great student and a very popular person no matter where she went. I am incredibly proud of Tiffany and how well she has done. — DJT.”

THANK YOU. She wasn’t held up as a “paragon”, Donnie. She was held up as a person who didn’t deserve the shitty, racist, misogynistic bullshit you put her through.

That was excellent and brings home what has niggled at me when I’ve read transcripts of his remarks. I watched the debate and knew he was barely coherent and monosyllabic as I was listening, but reading the transcripts the day after is even more painful.

I’m a technical writer/editor and my head explodes every time.

He’s a pageant owner -- he probably really buys the bullshit about a pageant queen needing to be a pillar of the community, a pinup hottie who’s also an angelic virgin. So if she made a sex tape, if she’s not a virgin, she must be a whore. Yet another reason to end pageants and their poisonous ideals of womanhood.

No it wasn’t. There is no Alicia Machado sex tape. That’s the worst part. Trump libeling her is the worst part.

It is nearly impossible to try to read a transcription of his speaking.

Is that an actual rule, or just preferred? I don’t want to defend Trump about anything, and especially not to an English teacher, I just didn’t know that rule. If I were to write such an insulting message I probably would have done it the same way and now I feel bad :( Like ddawn23, I put my parentheticals immediately…

His syntax is FASCINATING! I don’t think he is able to embed clauses. I’m an SLP student and transcribed his Hannity rant after the debate just for fun and he only had 5 grammatical utterances in 1:43 of speech, and all of them were single-clause utterances. One of the 5 was three words long. Another was two words.

Let’s start a Super PAC. English Teachers and Copy Editors For Hillary.

And I love the implication that Clinton has the power to grant citizenship or that Machdo only became a citizen so she could be a prop.

thats an insult to 5th graders everywhere

Did Crooked Hillary help disgusting (check out sex tape and past) Alicia M become a U.S. citizen so she could use her in the debate?

I understand that he has words, the best words. I don’t know, maybe someone pointed him towards thesaurus.com?

Maybe that’s the only time he can get his phone back from his aides? Serious question: how much of his constant attacks on Machado are a heavy handed attempt to frighten other women who have also been mistreated by him from going public?
