Just found this online...it's a great illustration of how Trump's "arguments" are structured:

(note: before anyone tells The Donald and he sues, this IS satire...ok? It was in the comments section of this story: http://www.salon.com/2016/08/14/evan-mcmullins-presidential-run-could-potentially-blow-up-the-republican-party/ )

Many People Are Saying Donald Trump Founded NAMBLA

I keep hearing this. Good people - the best people - tell me this. Really the best, most tremendous people.

Many people are saying that Trump founded NAMBLA. He's the founder! Literally! Donald Trump literally founded NAMBLA!

Now, I'm not saying that's true. I'm just repeating what's being said. Who knows if it's true? Many people say it's true. Many people are also saying that Trump gives millions to NAMBLA each year. Maybe that’s right, maybe that’s wrong, but I don’t know why Trump doesn’t release his tax records?

One thing we know is true: even if Trump isn't the founder of NAMBLA and instead just gives millions to NAMBLA each year then that explains why Trump refuses to release his tax returns.

I guarantee it.



see how this works? I think we can do something with this.
