Please tell me you didn’t interpret that Trump Needs To award as an “insult.” Surely no one outside of Obama has an ego that massive and that fragile.

You said: “Congratulations. You are the 100,002 th Freeper, who used the words “Trump needs to...”. You win the “Have a little perspective about your talents as a political consultant” 2nd prize. Two weekend nights in South Chicago. The 1st prize winner will be there for one weekend. Enjoy your weekend night in South Chicago.”

Yup, I’d say that is snarky and an insult, which I’m sure was your intent. How else is one to interpret “Have a little perspective about your talents as a political consultant?” If you try to pass it off as sarcasm you need to go back to school, because in English 101 sarcasm is simply an “insult with flavor.” Hell, even a basic definition in Webster’s equates sarcasm with derision and ridicule. Are not derision and ridicule insults?

Do not direct any more posts to me.
