It's becoming increasingly more difficult to know where Donald Trump stands on an issue. He'll often times respond to such questions by going the vague route ("We might have to do something about that, somehow, someway, well, maybe"), the repetitious route ("That's a good question about whether or not we should ban hookers named Chastity in Las Vegas"), or the change-of-subject route ("Interesting... So did you see my latest poll numbers? Yuge, like massively yuge, yugely yuge even!"). At the end of these (non-)rants, listeners are quite possibly less cognizant about where Trump stands on the matter than before he started speaking. Not only that, but Trump hasn't been coy about flip-flopping from one day to the next, or even contradicting himself in a single interview. The most recent example of this came on Sunday, when Trump said, "I'm not advocating guns in classrooms, but remember in some cases - a lot of people made this case - teachers should have guns, trained teachers should have guns in classrooms."
Let's think about this for a moment here. Trump in essence said he doesn't think guns should be allowed in classrooms yet teachers should be allowed to have guns. Where do teachers often reside in schools? Oh, that's right - the classrooms. So in other words, Trump is saying, "Guns shouldn't be in classrooms, but at the same time, they should, you know?" No, it doesn't make any sense, and sadly, that's more the trend than an aberration as far as presumptive Republican nominee Donald J. Trump is concerned. Given his ridiculously stupid and contradictory statement, expect him to utter the following lines at some point before election day:
- "I'm not advocating marijuana, but smoke it if you got it, you know?"
- "I'm not advocating violence at my rallies, but beat the crap out of that guy over there please!"
- "I'm not advocating war, just bombing lots and lots of people."
- "I'm not advocating birth-control, except in cases when women don't wanna get pregnant."
- "I'm not advocating dishonesty, but climate-change is a hoax, Obama wasn't born in this country, and Shaquille O'Neal's hands are like Mini-Me's compared to mine."
