They are probably all thinking the same thing "when is the other guy going to pack it in?".

The answer is probably after Iowa.

They won't pack it in until they run out of money. As long as they at least have one millionaire willing to throw his own money away, they have no incentive to drop out. That's what Citizen's United has given us ... a bunch of losers, who know they're losing, staying in the race just for the hell of it.

Foster Freeze? Remember him? He's the one who thought that sticking an aspirin between your knees would be just hunky-dory inasfar as birth control goes.

Are you in the US middle class? Try our income calculator | Pew Research Center

If you end up in the lower 29% should you vote democrats?
If you end up in the upper 21% should you vote republican?

What exactly did he think she was doing in there, sniffing seats?

The BBC gets it, though:

"Mr Trump, a billionaire property tycoon with no political experience ..."

Well yes, but why would anyone even begin to think that it would be a good idea to talk about it? It makes him sound like an 8-year-old boy with a screw loose.

I think it's obvious what he's doing. She's disgusting and/or dirty for having to actually use a toilet. Women shouldn't be engaging in that sort of filthy and unladylike behavior. All women should be perfect and free of bodily waste just like Donald's daughter who he not-so-secretly wants to have sex with.
