Republicans: Tell ‘racist, mean-spirited’ Trump to shut up

With a full clown car of Republican presidential candidates, it amazes me that not one of them is telling the frontrunner, Donald Trump, to shut up. Not one of the lineup of extreme, right-wing Stooges has stood up and said, “Donald, your arrogant, mean-spirited, yuppie, racist comments are not welcome in the now further to the right moving GOP.”

The more Donald “Look at me” Trump shoots his mouth off, the more Bill Clinton goes out collecting boxes for his and Hillary’s move back to the White House. Even if he has to sleep on the couch again.
