Donald Trump tailored his pitch to the citizens of Delaware on Friday, praising the tiny mid-Atlantic state’s status as a tax shelter and at one point sharing a story about calling his credit-card company to find out whether it employed people in India.

"I know almost as much as the people in Delaware about banking," Trump boasted at a rally in Harrington, a small town south of the capital Dover, on Friday afternoon.

Trump said he had 378 corporate entities registered in the state, "meaning I pay you a lot of money, folks. I don’t feel guilty."

"I spend a fortune in Delaware. No one knows it," he said.

You might need an accent at the Piggly Wiggly, but I’m not sure its an Indian one.

Just co-incidentally, I experienced this foreign call service with FedEx just this afternoon. Unlike nearly all companies, backward FedEx does not have a place on their online account application to put a physical address AND a mailing address. So, if you have that scenario in your business, your SOL and have to call the call center where they are clueless and compound the problem by submitting your physical address to AMEX NOT your mailing address. Well, HELLO!...Amex instantly rejects you and the “Central American” call service FedEx hired to save a few bucks can’t understand you and no account got opened! Trump called Cruz “Lyin” Ted...............I call FedEx “backward FedEx”. Go UPS!!!

“Trump said he had 378 corporate entities registered in the state, “meaning I pay you a lot of money, folks. I don’t feel guilty.””

You can set up an LLC in Delaware for peanuts. Without having a business there. I’ll bet millions of companies are based out of Delaware, like Trump meant.

When these folks in India are not working in a call center, they are calling me to report they are Microsoft and my computer is causing problems on their main frame. For a few hundred bucks they can data mine my computer while they pretend they are fixing the problem.

The guy is super funny. Like Jackie Mason. Yesterday in Waterbury, CT I think it was, he says, “Tony De Mayo. Where’s Tony De Mayo? He was the first guy in CT to endorse me. Where’s Tony. Hey, Tony?! There he is. Come up here. Get you ass up here on the stage!”

I found it immediately suspicious that there wasn’t video or audio to go with the story.

So, did you place this in Breaking News? If so, why, it’s over 2 days old.

I saw Trump do this. He mocked no one!!! All he did was to imitate the response from an Indian worker in India doing a job that should have been kept here in the USA!!! My friend......you best hook up with “Lyin’” Ted Cruz his idiot, nutcase, Dad and that miserable lunatic, radical, Glenn Beck. You belong in the same company. LOL

It is funny that Trump brought this up. My husband and I were talking about this the day before.

There have been times I have called for help and the accent of the person on the other end was so heavy that I had to just hang up!.

By the way, FOX played this and it wasn’t mocking, it was something most of us relate to.

Please people, try to find something to criticize other than this petty stuff.

It backfires on you.

“I said to the person, ‘Where are you from?’ I wasn’t really checking on my card. I was actually finding out if this was true. So I called up under the guise I’m checking on my card, said, ‘Where are you from?’ ‘We are from India.’ ‘Oh, great. That’s wonderful. Thank you very much,’” Trump said, speaking briefly in a foreign-sounding accent before gesturing like he was hanging up a phone. “

Oh NO! Really? Someone in India might actually speak with an Indian accent?! This is it. This is the end. Trump should drop out. This conclusively proves that... um, well, he can hear.

Oh. Wait. That doesn’t mean much, does it?
