So last night the eminently classy Donald J Trump — the “J” stands for “Jesus H Christ what the hell is wrong with you, dude?” — reposted this lovely meme below contrasting his SUPER HOTTTT wife Melania with Heidi Cruz, wife of Ted, a woman who once committed the terrible crime of making a weird face in public.

You might think that Trump — an orange-faced self-tanner with, you know, that hair — would stay away from looks-based insults, but then again Trump actually thinks he looks good — nay, great! And also he’s a giant baby.
The Tweet got mixed reviews, by which I mean that most normal human beings thought Trump was being a giant ass. That is, even more so than he usually is.
But the Donald had his defenders. Here are a few of the more, well, I would say “colorful ones,” but they tend to be a bit monochrome, if you know what I mean, and what I mean is that a lot of them are white supremacists.
MAKEUP ARTIST: So, Heidi, how do you want to look today?
HEIDI CRUZ: Oh, you know, the usual.
MAKEUP ARTIST: That George Soros globalist look?
HEIDI CRUZ: You got it. And make it just a teensy bit ragged.
MAKEUP ARTIST: I always do!
HEIDI CRUZ: You’re the best!
Transphobia turns out to be a major theme in these Tweets, for some reason.
#PureClass indeed.
Some, apparently referring to reports that Heidi Cruz has suffered from depression, decided to denounce her as “crazy” as well as ugly:
A gun to what, Randy? A gun to what!? Finish the sentence, Randy!
And now on to boogers:
By the way, people are still using the #TedCruzAteABooger hashtag. Not very many people, admittedly, but more than zero.
One Donald Trump parody account — run by someone who also seems to be a Trump supporter — jumped aboard the Let’s Call Heidi Cruz Crazy Train.
This fellow was one of Trump’s most, er, outspoken defenders:
Meanwhile, the artist formerly known as DJ Pop A Titty Out had this to say:
You knew we weren’t going to make it through this without that word popping up at least once, right?
Meanwhile, on the other side of this peculiar debate, not all of the anti-Trumpites were above taking potshots at Melania Trump’s looks.
This is definitely the most screwed-up presidential campaign I’ve ever seen.
(“Ted Cruz ate a booger” is kind of funny, though.)
Now Glenn Beck is making weird rape jokes about Cruz.
Paradoxical Intention, I’m a registered Republican of that contradictory mixture of fiscally conservative and socially liberal, with heavy independent leanings-basically the only reason I haven’t actually registered Independent is because I want to have some sort of voice in the future of the Republican party (which, this year, isn’t really working out for anyone who doesn’t support Trump or Cruz). I’ve pretty much resigned myself to voting Democrat this year because 1) the only Republican candidates I was able to see myself supporting either dropped out of the race or are lost causes, 2) even my remaining Repub option (Kasich, my governor) has done some things I strongly disagree with, and 3) the remaining Repub candidates are megalomaniacs and/or support many orders of magnitude more intrusions into people’s religious lives, romantic lives, bedrooms, and uteri than I’d ever be comfortable with.
Tl;dr I relate way more to your first comment on this thread than I want to.
