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

So true, but it shows the level of desperation the media is in to help Hillary.

To liberals this passes for an intellectual discussion.

In order to ask Jane Goodall’s opinion you must first care about Jane Goodall’s opinion. You must then believe she is knowledgeable about anything other than apes.

This is desperate, grasping, juvenile stuff from the so-called highbrow Atlantic.

Interesting that you can sign up for a “news alert” on the page. It appears that the Examiner knows very little of “news”. Maybe they should try to find some journalists? Are there journalists any more? What a laugh of a story. Doubt that they’ll be around much longer.

The progressives want to treat people like animals because they disbelieve the divinity of human beings, so now they get upset when someone on the other side is appealing to them on an animistic level, and not their Beta male pandering, but Alpha Male dominance...

Screw them, they are hypocrites

Bad news: We are 99.999999999% made of chimp dna. I get the insult ... but life is true this way. What it leaves out is that part of chimp dominance is also intelligence ... and so far the Trump chimp is running circles around (rather than bullying) both the media and the democrats. Trump is out chimping them on both toughness and intelligence.

So -> I'll take the compliment. Meanwhile, chimps also manipulate ... and in the background Obama has to be thinking 'I can't believe the media and dem chimps are so bad at manipulating the naive and ignorant.' O is an evil chimp, hillary a corrupt chimp.

It would be racis' to liken Obama to a chimp, so I'll take that back and just stick to the recent parasite scientist's characterization. Because if the scientist said Obama is a parasite ... well then that's settled science, the debate is over.
