First Donald Trump just said, "You're fired." Then he ran for president and his quotes have gotten more and more outrageous over time. Here are just a few of the highlights.
1. "Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press."
You know the election isn't going well when the Republican nominee tries to bribe a foreign government to hack into U.S. email servers. Some consider this treason. Trump later said that he was being "sarcastic." But was he really? Either way, not his finest moment.
2. "When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."
Ok, Trump we get it. You're anti-immigration. But do you really think that the vast majority of Mexican immigrants are "rapists"? Even you can't be that ignorant.
3. "My fingers are long and beautiful, as it has been well documented, are various other parts of my body."
Trump? Are you really making a sexual innuendo during a Republican presidential debate? It's kind of scary that he still managed to beat all of the other candidates.
4. "He's not a war hero. He's a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren't captured." (About John McCain.)
Hey Trump, pretty sure you don't know what it's like at all to be on the front lines during a war. Not up to you to decide who a war hero is and who isn't.
5. "I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist."
Well, the use of the word "fabulous" is questionable and I don't think traditional values really control if you're gay.
6. "I've said if Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her."
A. She is your daughter. B. You're married. C. Just. Stop.
7. "Sorry losers and haters, but my IQ is one of the highest and you all know it! Please don't feel so stupid or insecure. It's not your fault."
If your IQ is higher than your haters, then they must have really low IQs.
8. "I don't wear a rug. It's mine. And I promise not to talk about your mass of plastic surgeries that didn't work."
I don't know, Trump. You sound pretty insecure about that hair of yours.
9. "If Hillary can't satisfy her husband, what makes her think she can satisfy America?"
Wow! Because the state of someone's marriage is totally related to how well they can run the country! Not.
10. "It's freezing and snowing in New York. We need global warming!"
So I'm pretty sure Trump skipped at least part of kindergarten. So, Trump, there are these things called seasons and one of them is winter. That's what you were experiencing in New York! And, by the way, global warming is a bad thing.
We all know Trump says dumb things from time to time, but it's actually incredible how many ridiculous things he's said. Good luck to us all if he becomes president and attempts international diplomacy.
