    If it was a male, would you be making the same jokes if they had grandchildren? Many presidents have had grandchildren. I'm not sure why you think this is funny or relevant.

    Do you really find that it would be far fetched for people to refer to a candidate as "grandpa" if they were old and crusty looking? If someone referred to Bernie Sanders as "Grandpa Sanders" would it offend you?

    I honestly don't even understand this "grandma" term. Is it supposed to be pejorative? Should I call Trump "grandpa" because, well, he is one?

    EDIT - I see others have brought this up, too. Is this something texxx made up, or is it common in conservative blogs and Yahoo comments sections?

    Not only that, she's younger than Trump and Sanders.

    Just another dumb in a history of dumbs from bigdumbbb.

    Because he's a misogynist duh! He hates women and thinks a woman who complains about rape and sexual harassment should instead talk about Islam.

    Is Hillary that woman in your mind? She certainly wasn't that person when it was her husband sexually harassing woman and using his position of power in order to get into the pants of women....which some feminists believe to be a form of rape. In fact, she worked to silence those victimized women.

    If you want to defend her, you should probably pick a different method.

    I'm not even a liberal and I haven't even posted my commentary about anything regarding the debate.

    I don't know. Positions like "Climate Change is a hoax." is one of those positions that is directly opposite to common sense.

    Yes absolutely. The side with a candidate talking about shooting Iranian nuclear missiles into the air to cause a magnetic impulse that will kill millions of of Americans also defies common sense (among other things). Add to that the candidate who believes that the Pyramids were grain storage units for the Egyptians.

    There's so much lacking in common sense and outside of the world of reality that it's scary.

    I don't think you know what rape or feminism is based on what you wrote above.

    I didn't expect you to fully follow along, so it's not a big deal that you failed to.

    I am not going to let you draw me into this personal attack war you seem found of doing to people who disagree with you.

    But you make a claim that Bill Clinton is a rapist and Monica Lewinsky was a victim and Hillary is protecting her husband which I never hear any feminist making this claim - and I know a lot of feminists. So I am questioning your facts and definition which seem off. This is not about following anything but disputing what you have posted as just ridiculously false.

    This Granny is currently the most qualified person in the race. Maybe that says more about the weakness of the GOP team. They can't put up a real experienced statesman with a broad based following. Of all the Governors they elect and seven years of majority in the House and Senate they can't even muster one electable candidate from the party leadership.

    You're the one who needs to learn what socialism means and the entirety of your posting history consists of "spewing garbage," but nice projection.

    That's because the most reasonable and statesman like in the GOP want nothing to do with the s***show that has become the GOP primary season.

    You're projecting again. To be fair, I will note that both sides play the genetic fallacy far too much, but "too liberal to take seriously" is the only criticism that many conservatives have for a wide variety of sources.
