The biggest standing ovation since Peyton Manning...

http://www.deathandtaxesmag.com/316420/trump-cia-standing-ovation-vs-peyton-manning-super-bowl-50-investigation/

David Muir was interviewing Twitler last night on ABC and asked him if it was possibly over the top self-promotion for him to be talking at length about his inauguration day crowd size in front of the CIA memorial wall to agents killed in action.

Trump's response to whether he was spending too much time inflating himself?

"That speech was a home run....In fact, they said it was the biggest standing ovation since Peyton Manning had won the Super Bowl and they said it was equal."

Is it possible for him to be any more continuously egomaniacally delusional? There have to be 200 million people in America who would have been a more stable, rational choice for this job.

Also, I have heard that coyotes are very smart and creative at life..(not Wiley E Coyote)..perhaps a brighter coyote would have been good..
