GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Donald Trump used vulgar language as he attacked Hillary Clinton during a rally on Monday night, saying her use of the restroom at the last Democratic debate was “too disgusting” to talk about and that in 2008 she got “schlonged” by Barack Obama when he defeated her in the Democratic primary.
Standing before a crowd of 7,500, Trump recounted how Clinton was seconds late to the Democratic debate stage on Saturday night following a commercial break. Trump asked the crowd four times where Clinton had gone.
“I know where she went — it’s disgusting, I don’t want to talk about it,” Trump said, screwing up his face, as the crowd laughed and cheered. “No, it’s too disgusting. Don’t say it, it’s disgusting.”
Later in the night, Trump told the crowd that he could not picture Clinton as president because she never wins at anything. He then brought up the 2008 Democratic primary, which Clinton lost to Barack Obama.
“She was favored to win, and she got schlonged,” Trump said, turning a vulgar noun for a large penis into a verb.
Donald– Ewwwwww. Just Ewwwwww
What is his problem? Has he always been the little rich boy who thought he could use women and talk trash about him? This indecent behavior towards women simply makes him unacceptable to be president. He is an embarrassment.
Those supporting him need to keep this in mind. It will rub off.
Would you want this man to date your daughter or your sister? Would you want him around your mother?
His manners about men aren’t really much better. However, we don’t have special names for men who characteristically hate other men. Trump is absolutely a misogynist.
And that’s the schlong and the schloch of it.
He acts like an immature little boy. This country face real problems yet these are the matters he chooses to discuss. He is unfit for public office and will lose badly. His party will be brought down with him.
This was a really stupid and inappropriate thing to say especially when he could have just told the truth about why Hillary was late getting back to the debate. Her highness REFUSED to share a large bathroom, with multiple stalls, with a petty commoner. Her majesty demanded that the bathroom be completely cleared before entering and waited until her will was done by one of her loyal subjects, even if it meant she would be late getting back to a live nationally televised debate.
She is just like you and me, a real down to earth people person!
With the nastiness involved in a political campaign, I don’t blame her.
Trump shouldn’t have commented on it at all. He is disrespectful.
@Jackson Bills
Maybe she needed a little privacy. I’ve been there before. Who hasn’t? Who hasn’t?
@Jackson Bills
You have inside information, I take?
So you obviously had your staff clear the entire bathroom and not let anyone else in so that you could use it exclusively. I see…
She is running for president for heavens sake. let’s just get over it. I would expect security would demand that.
Do you realize if your kid has to use the bathroom during the SOL tests that he will be escorted and if it is a multi-stalled bathroom, then he will have to wait until the bathroom empties. Then only he can go in.
Its all part of test security.
Now, lets not be ignorant and invasive. The bathroom had to be cleared. I expect Hillary had nothing to do with the decision. It’s not like she can just go behind a tree like Trump. He probably wouldn’t even bother with the tree.
@punchak
Yeah, saw it on MSNBC actually. A female staffer for the O’Malley campaign was using one of the stalls in the bathroom when Clinton went to the restroom. Instead of just using one of the many open stalls she insisted on waiting until the other woman was done and had her staff clear the bathroom and man the door so nobody else could enter thus making her return late during a live nationally televised debate. Just like any normal person, right?
You really don’t know much about presidential security.
@Jackson Bills
Several presidential candidates have security people. I’m sure
Clinton does. Furthermore, it was polite of her to let the other
woman her “business”. If she’d been mean, she would have
chased her out of the stall with her pants down. Oh, well!
There’s ALWAYS something to get upset about. Important things, of course!
Important enough for Trump to spend several minutes on the subject.
BTW / What’s disgusting abt going to the bathroom? “I can’t talk about it.
It’s too disgusting” was said at least three times. After which he threw out
the not-disgusting stuff about being schlonged.
The audience roared!
Trump has made vulgarity and coarseness into something admirable.
I looked at the audiences a few times. I see mostly youngish men and a few of their stepford wife type girl friends or wives.
Are these young people the standard? Is this what they want for their country? I suppose now I understand why they are so eager to have someone else go to war for them.
@Moon-howler
Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill said there wasn’t a security reason preventing the former secretary of state from sharing a bathroom.
You really don’t know much about this event.
@Jackson Bills
Maybe she had lunch at Chipotle
I would like to own about 100 shares of Chipotle.
@punchak
There were multiple stalls punchak, nobody would have been chased out of a stall with their pants down.
Jackson, you are attempting to use Hillary’s bathroom break as a vehicle to hi-jack this thread so you don’t have to address the fact that Trump is rude, crude, and socially unacceptable.
What do you have to say about that?
The fact that security details ALWAYS empties a bathroom when some of importance needs to use it must have escaped you. Stop proving your ignorance.
@El Guapo
Now that is funny! However, if she ate at Chipotle she probably would still be in the bathroom. 🙂
Trump won’t garner much support from women with his remarks about the bathroom. We’ve waited in lines longer than most men could tolerate (that’s why there’s an occasional run on the men’s room) and we have more clothing with which to deal. Don’t complain about women and their bathroom habits- whether the room is cleared or not. It’s a subject guaranteed to pi$$ us off.
If Trump found it so disgusting, why repeat his spiel?
This too shall pass.
No pun intended.
First… refer to post #3 where I stated “This was a really stupid and inappropriate thing to say” in reference to his disgusting comments about her bathroom break.
Second… about security, refer to post #13 – “Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill said there wasn’t a security reason preventing the former secretary of state from sharing a bathroom”.
Proving my ignorance? Do you know anything about this event other than what Trump said about it? There was NO security reason preventing her from sharing the bathroom according to HER own spokesman. As a matter of fact she had a staff member posted outside of the bathroom during the entire debate to keep all women out of it so that she could use it exclusively.
https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics/2015/12/20/bizarre-part-democratic-debate-explained/GyvaBZbnFoghvspiCHoosK/story.html:
“A top Clinton staffer who was strategically posted outside the bathroom (presumably to avoid these kinds of situations) gave Smith a verbal OK to make a quick pit stop, according to one person familiar with the ladies’ line.”
Most security will empty bathrooms. Additionally, parking garages are also a particular problem.
Why are Clinton’s bathroom habits so important to you?
I am absolutely going to defend her on this one. “Stupid and inappropriate” really is just glazing the surface. Which comment did you feel was over the top? How about getting schlonged?
You many want to wait on that… their stock is still crashing. You could get it dirt cheap in a few weeks: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/chipotles-stock-keeps-falling-after-analyst-throws-in-the-towel-2015-12-22
Well damn, you got me. Ok, I don’t want to own 100 shares of any stock worth just under $500 bucks a share. NOT.
Have you checked out what Apple is doing lately? It’s officially in bear status. I still want to own it. When you own it, you can always sell it. (and I did sell a few shares yesterday, just for fun)
@Moon-howler
Just curious, are you just trying to be deliberately nasty to me for a reason? I was just telling you that Chipotle stock (CMG) is still crashing. It has fallen over 22% in since October.
It started to flatten out but on Monday (2 days ago) the Center of Disease Control and Prevention linked yet ANOTHER E.Coli outbreak to Chipolte and it has fallen another 3.5% in the last 48 hours. But if you want to buy 100 shares go right ahead, as you said you can always sell it.
Oy vey… (shaking my head)
* ‘Security’ did not clear the bathroom, her staff did. Her spokesman has stated there was NO security issue. If you have an issue with that then Clinton’s spokesman must be a liar.
* Clinton’s bathroom habits are not important to me. I was pointing out that Trump could have used the event to show what an elitist Clinton is and has historically always been all the while trying to portray herself as ‘one of us’.
* So my defending Clinton from Trumps comments and denouncing them as “Stupid and inappropriate” did not go far enough for you? Wha?????
* I felt all of his comments on this were over the top. I have never heard of or even know what ‘sclonged’ means but yeah, that was over the top as well I suppose.
Point taken, I misspelled “schlong.” Correction made.
I expect Hillary Clinton has secret service at this point. If that is the case, the matter is out of her hands.
If I am wrong and she does not, then her security would be really off its mark to not clear a bathroom for a presidential candidate of her stature. Back to bathrooms and parking garages being lethal in the security department.
I am glad you aren’t obsessing over Hillary’s bathroom habits.
Not, not far enough….but I find Trump to be a horrible human being. I hate hearing his voice its that bad. He is the most ill-equipped person to be president of all the main stream candidates in my lifetime, in my opinion. That would include George Wallace. I never considered Lydon LaRouche a real candidate.
Okay, if I did not go far enough in my defending of Clinton with my denouncing of Trump’s comments I would LOVE to see your reaction to the Washington Posts racist depiction of Ted Cruz’s children.
“schlonged”, “sclonged”…still have never heard of either of term.
I’m not sure how else I can state this, secret service did not clear the bathroom, period. The backstage area was already secure. She directed her STAFF, not security, her STAFF to clear the bathroom so that she did not have to share it with ANY other woman.
At this point I have no clue what exactly is getting lost in translation here… her own spokesman even stated such as a FACT. There was NO security issue. I do not know why you keep referring to secret service or security when security played absolutely no role in this, again, according to her own spokesman.
If she has her private security, they are her staff. I also don’t believe everything I hear or read.
Regardless of what a staff person says, there is always a danger n bathrooms. So the fact someone said there is no security issue, I discredit it.
I think depicting Ted Cruz’s kids as monkeys was unacceptable. I don’t think it was racist–just off limits. I actually thought they were Mickey Mouses. it wasn’t until someone pointed out that they were monkeys did I realize it…or that it was about Cruz. Doh me. I think candidate’s kids are off limits most of the time, especially if they are juveniles. Cruz’s kids are cute. Doesn’t make me like him though.
Have you lived in a cave your entire life? Everyone I know has heard the expression “schlong.”
I have also decided that the topic of Hillary using the bathroom is simply off limits for this blog. I don’t care if she closed the place off or not. It’s her business and you are pathetic to care.
I don’t plan on discussing Trump and Carson and Cruz lining up at the urinals either. Its off limits. the next thing I know, you will want to discuss whether she rumples or folds her toilet paper.
…to be more specific, I would LOVE to see your reaction to Ann Telanes. The Washington Post cartoonist who put out the bigoted depiction of Ted Cruz’s children if my reaction to Trump’s comments were not strong enough.
@Moon-howler
A spokesman is not just any ole ‘staff person’. If Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill is not creditable or trustworthy then I seriously question the decision making ability of someone who would hire him to be her spokesman. That only furthers my already shaky feelings of her ability to be a leader of anything let alone the United States.
Do you think prominent organizations associated with Ms. Telanes should denounce her or demand an apology for her publishing a totally unacceptable cartoon such as this? Keep in mind this is not the first questionable cartoon of Cruz she has published.
Jackson, you are wasting my bandwidth. I don’t give a crap if they do or they don’t. Political cartoonists are sometimes outlandish. The publisher has to decide how far to take it.
I have a great idea. Let’s hire some Muslim extremists to off her because she insulted someone. There ya go!
Putting all the chatter aside, if I was heading a Secret Service detail guarding anyone whose stature was enough to warrant such, I would not allow them to go into a public restroom until I had checked out the room and maybe even waited until it was cleared or actually hastened the clearance myself. Common sense. But, then, I don’t know how they operate these days.
And, no, I never heard of “schlonged” either in all my many decades of life, including visits to some of the raunchiest seaports in the world. I’m betting it’s New York Yiddish.
It’s Yiddish. I have never heard it in the verb form, just the noun form.
I agree with you about the Secret service detail. It is common sense.
