Donald Trump's debates the way chimpanzees try to dominate rivals, according to remarks from the world's most famous expert on chimpanzees.

"In many ways the performances of Donald Trump remind me of male chimpanzees and their dominance rituals,"Jane Goodall, the world-famous primatologist and anthropologist, told the Atlantic's James Fallows for a piece posted Saturday.

Dear Jane,
Go back to Africa and look for Tarzan. America can do without your interjections.

I thought Goodall respected chimps. I guess she supports Trump. :)

Actually, this is nothing but emotionalism. Didn’t Goodall once kidnap the African child of a poacher to trade for a chimp?

Because we all know that calling people “racist, sexist, bigoted, homophobes, and islamaphobes” that liberal like Hillary do is a much better and mature debating approach.

Sorry, but we deplorables on the alt-right have the Harambe meme on our side.

If what I said seems cruel, think of the thousands ot times we had to listen to Rush Limbaugh being called the fat man and that PBS woman who said she wanted Justice Thomas’s wife to feed him a high fat diet so Justice Thomas would die of a heart attack. These are nasty canasty people on the other side.

To Jane Goodall: Yes...and, it works pretty well, right? Hillary is like a wounded, sick, aged, deer-like animal just waiting for the next culling of the herd via the natural cycle.

Actually, this is high praise from her. Trump takes command, and no “Alpha Chimp” ever “leads from behind.”

Can the chimp just be in the audience watching the gorillas
fight?

She says it like it's a bad thing.

Dominance is essential for leadership. The press is so used to pathetic puppets like Jeb and Rubio that, confronted by a real man, they can only point and scream.

Much like outmatched chimps...
