    Leftards now claiming they were so easily fooled only because Trump is so awful. Actually, they are easily fooled because they are such demented clowns they are ready to believe anything so long as it seems to further their Trump-hating agenda.

    Isn’t that what they claim President Trump supporters are, easily fooled?

    This is some scary ‘stuff’.
People actually think up and or believe this?
This is intellectual drool...

    Don’t miss the point—that anti-Trump types are often mentally deficient.

    Pretty silly, really, because everybody knows the gorillas on the screen can't hear you. They listen only to me.

    The first entrepreneur to launch an actual gorilla channel will be rich.

    People with working brains can tell that is total nonsense. Apparently the alphabet networks prefer to hire brainless ones.

    LOL, 17 hours a day, face four inches from the screen, yelling at the gorillas.
And they FELL FOR IT! What a bunch of dopes. They think Trump is “mentally deficient”!
 
To: Enchante
    I’m surprised! Don Cheadle is smarter than a gorilla. But not much.
