        Is it possible that he made a conscious decision to speak/pander to the 'lowest common denominator'?

        @andylassner Can the public demand a full battery of neuropsychological testing to make a determination of DT's mental state and capacity?

        How about a thesis on his tweets over years? It's the 140 character condensed version of sense (or non sense).

        I liked Mr. Trump calling some people "losers" though. Teens, who were the victims of the recent terrorist attack, like this term very much!
