To, you know, make sure that the marks are big enough and make up for his short fingers.

(28,928 posts)Focusing on Trump having a small penis and demoralizing his manhood is exactly the type of thing his supporters would be impacted by. If it becomes a focal "point" (no pun intended) and he gets more and more on the defensive it could really do some damage to his macho persona.

Sanders Sends Vegan Thugs to Attack Peace-Loving Nazis
BY ANDY BOROWITZ
CINCINNATI (The Borowitz Report)Republican front-runner Donald Trump was crying foul on Monday after Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders allegedly dispatched an army of vegan thugs to attack a rally of peace-loving Nazis in Cincinnati.
According to Trump, he had begun to address a group of orderly and civil Nazis at a downtown arena when his audience was suddenly set upon by an unruly mob of angry vegans, many menacingly clad in Birkenstocks and sustainable garments.
The Sanders supporters, singing an alarmingly militant version of Simon & Garfunkels America, marched into the arena and began intimidating and threatening the Nazis, Trump said.
Make no mistake about who is starting the violence at these rallies, Trump said. Its the vegans.
