"DJT is a malignant clown" -GOP Sen. Mark Kirk of Illinois

This is certainly the season of the clowns !

It took a few hours for the full meaning and offensiveness of Trump’s remarks to filter through to the G.O.P. establishment. The first Republicans to react were some of Trump’s foes, including Senator Mark Kirk, of Illinois, who said in a tweet that the candidate should “drop out. @GOP should engage rules for emergency replacement.” Kirk added, “DJT is a malignant clown—unprepared and unfit to be president of the United States.”

The GOP are slow learners perhaps. A lot of us figured this one out many months ago.

Oh, and by the way, Comgresswoman Tammy Duckworth is going to clean your clock in the upcoming election.
