Trump's "locker room" speech in Sioux City, Iowa

Donald Trump went to my old home town this week and humorously asked Iowans, "What the Hell Are You People Doing to Me?" He was referring to the latest polling results which show Iowans preferring Carson over Trump. Ace links to Joe Scarborough enjoying watching the video of Trump's speech in Sioux City.

I endured many locker room speeches in Sioux City. My favorite was when at half time all the guys started singing Tennessee Ernie Ford's Sixteen Tons, and then we went back out and kicked our opponent's butt in the second half!

Trump taunts Iowans, after learning Carson now ahead of him; blames a "young intern" for the retweet.

Ace of Spades writes,
Trump Taunts Iowans: I think this is a retweet. It's not smart to retweet it, given that Iowans are very, very proud (and thin-skinned, and jealous) of their early-voting privilege.

"@mygreenhippo #BenCarson is now leading in the #polls in #Iowa. Too much #Monsanto in the #corn creates issues in the brain? #Trump #GOP"

Monsanto is a major agricorporation. I guess the suggestion is that corporate Montsanto dollars are fueling this...? I'm not sure.

Creeper says he's making some allusion to Montsanto's "chemicals" in their farming methods. That's even worse than the money angle! If that's the case, he's retweeting someone saying that pesticides have made Iowans mentally impaired!

This guy just can't stop talking about ratings -- polls. This is a major problem for him. His very serious sensitivity to every bad "ratings number" makes him overreact to them.

Update: Trump says it was a "young intern" who retweeted that.

The young intern who accidentally did a Retweet apologizes.
