        It's a metaphor for Republican incompetence, for the GOP extinction that Trump is leading you to.

        A metaphor? That's impossible. @realDonaldTrump doesn't know what a metaphor is.

        And, I doubt seriously that he could spell metaphor without the use of autocorrect.

        He never uses autocorrect because he knows all the best words and how to spell them. Getting him out of office can't come soon enough.
