Is he for real? He wears a perpetual grimace on his face, and a dead, bleach blonde ferret on his head – he’s Donald Trump, and he’s currently a front runner in the race to become the 45th President of the Unite States. Trump has marched ahead in the polls thanks to the support he has garnered from his armada of bigots, supramacists, intellectually bankrupt citizens who consider him to be the solution to America’s current slew of problems.
Given that Trump happens to be a billionnaire, he doesn’t feel the need to abide by accepted campaign etiquette, and continues to make extremely sexist, divisive and racist remarks. Here are some of his biggest doozies, starting with his latest blunder:
1. “All muslims should be banned from entering the United States”
Extracted from his latest campaign statement, Trump once again finds himself on international air waves thanks to the most recent of his reckless remarks which suggest that “all muslims should be banned from entering the United States until the representatives can figure out what is going on”. The statement was met with roaring approval from his patrons in South Carolina, though a large part of the U.S remains, once again, shocked and hopelessly embarrassed.
2. That time he decided to step into pharmacology
I am being proven right about massive vaccinations—the doctors lied. Save our children & their future.

3. His divisive, ignorant and misinformed take on mexican immigrants “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” 4. And his breathtakingly daft solution to it “Build a wall with a big beautiful door for legal immigration.” —GOP Debate, August 2015 5. The time when he conveniently dialed down Earth’s biggest, or possibly, second biggest threat – global warming.
NBC News just called it the great freeze – coldest weather in years. Is our country still spending money on the GLOBAL WARMING HOAX? — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 25, 2014
4. Nothing like borderline incest, to improve one’s chances of becoming one of the most powerful men in the world
“I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.” (As told to The View, in 2006)
5. It takes a tumour to recognize the source of another
Remember, new “environment friendly” lightbulbs can cause cancer. Be careful– the idiots who came up with this stuff don’t care.

6. When he looked very presidential while taking a dig at Huffington Post co-founder Arianna Huffington
.@ariannahuff is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 28, 2012
7. Diplomacy isn’t his thing really. Hopefully all his sexist remarks will send the women running to the Hillary camp
While @BetteMidler is an extremely unattractive woman, I refuse to say that because I always insist on being politically correct.

8. There is a line. Trump crossed it 8km ago
Hey @realDonaldTrump – In case you’re looking for that tweet you deleted .. I got it right here. pic.twitter.com/a6F98q5xGU — Lenny Jacobson (@Lennyjacobson) April 17, 2015
Realizing that he may have gone a step too far, Trump deleted the tweet, but not before actor Lenny Jacobson, took a screenshot of it and slammed it into Trump’s face. Too bad he is immune to ignominy.
9. Sorting out matters of national importance
Robert Pattinson should not take back Kristen Stewart. She cheated on him like a dog & will do it again–just watch. He can do much better!

10. The moment when he justified rape
26,000 unreported sexual assults in the military-only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together? — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 7, 2013
