Out of context, this is funny.

I've been fixated on the faces he makes for hours.
His face is hilarious.
This scene still pisses me off, though.

Dude yes. Policies aside, he's the best. His correspondent's dinner stand up slays.

The problem I have with Trump is that he says stupid stupid things and then has to re-explain himself, it would be nice to see him think before he speaks.
With Hilary it almost seems to measured, I get that she has been training for this for years and years and is well scripted but none of it seems real.
They are both fakes for different reasons, trump has a false bravado and Hammettesque sense of his own importance. Hillary is a calculating politician.
Obama was a weedhead, he def knows "funny" but most crucially he has timing.
Trump was a headline [and backpage] chaser who knows how to ham it up for the camera. He thinks before speaking, the problem is it's the first thought that pops into mind...which winds up being blurted out. HS lunch buddy-funny.
HRC is 5000% Vote Quimby. Otherwise humorless.
Romney: UNFUNNY.
McCain: senile funny/tragic
Palin: only funny as a punchline
Kerry: funny because he looks dead-on Tree Beard from LOTR
Bush: ne'er do well screwup who is funnier on accident than most people are on purpose
Cheney: comic book villain-tier hilarious
Gore: McBain doing standup-funny
Clinton: Quagmire-funny (Family Guy)
Nader: Buzz Killington-funny
Bob Dole: Bob-Dole-deadpan funny
Ross Perot: Funniest person* to run for president

I'm covering an event Saturday that McCain has been invited to. It's a US Senate Republican Candidates Town Hall Forum.
Not remotely excited.

That wasn't my favorite of his roles though. I liked it when he automatically became a "loser" when his plane was shot down over Vietnam.
It is telling, however, when one-in-five members of your own party want you to drop out of a race. Don't think that ever happened to McCain though.

Trump: breaking preconceptions and building walls.
At least he follows through on his campaign promises.

“You know, if it gets a little boring, if I see people starting to sort of, maybe thinking about leaving, I can sort of tell the audience, I just say, ‘We will build the wall!' and they go nuts.”

He is such a salesman,
Surprised he isn't trying to start an boys band to shut down the local pool hall.
