“The Children went to the circus”.
What do you have against veterans?
Trump could have held this event at any time. Instead he used it to promote himself.
Sure he got some heroic veterans to speak at the event, but the principle reason why he held it on Thursday night was to stick it to the other candidates and promote himself.
The debate was a lot more educational than if Trump was there. With Trump at the debate it would have been a circus, but Trump took his circus and left town. I guess it was a win win. Trump wins and gets his much needed self promotion. And the voting public won by not having the two year old whiner at the debate making faces and calling people bimbos and otherwise acting like the @$$ that he is and always has been.
