Trump is ‘not slim and trim,’ Reid says

“[Trump] has his little hat he wears when he doesn’t want his hair to be messed up”, Reid said from the Senate floor.

Reid made the remarks on the Senate floor, where he cited a recent cover story in Newsweek that raised questions about a potential Trump presidency based on his global business ties.

Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid ripped Donald Trump Tuesday for being overweight and eating too much fast food, charging that the media “magnified” Hillary Clinton’s recent bout with pneumonia.

Reid brought up a bombshell Newsweek article that reported Trump has such an extensive web of business ties in various countries that they “cannot be resolved”, with nearly no foreign policy decision in a potential Trump administration untainted by Trump Organization interests.

“Let’s be clear about Donald Trump. He did a lot of it by swindling working men and women”, he said. “Why would he change as president?”

Reid began his remarks by expressing concern “about the integrity and the security of democracy in America”.

“Trump is a human leech who will bleed the country and sit at his golf resort laughing at the money he has made”. The answer is simple. “Trump doesn’t understand the middle class”.

He recently called the GOP presidential nominee “an American nightmare”, accusing him of being a bigot and a scam artist who refuses to release his tax returns.

Democrats need to win back five Senate seats – or four if they also retain the White House – to take the majority.

Reid – a chief Senate critic of the brash businessman – said that instead of following Trump, Republicans could help pass legislation to improve ObamaCare, ease student loan debt and toughen gun background checks.
