      What’s crazy is that the news treat this as if he’s staying a serious policy instead of calling it what it is. They phrase it as “Trump says he’s open to restrictions on contraception”. They should be saying “Trump clearly flounders and doesn’t know what contraception means.”

      This man does not have a single serious policy, other than his own personal goals.

      Remember that scene in Chicago, where Roxy Hart was sitting on Billy Flynn’s lap and they sang?

      Basically like that.
