We thought there’s a line, apparently not. Donald Trump suggested that he has a large penis during the Fox News Republican Presidential debate on 3 March 2016. This really did happen, for those of you who are in denial.
All this unfolded during an exchange between Trump and Rubio. Rubio made a statement that Trump deserves to be attacked because he attacks people so much. Last week, Senator Rubio made a comment on Trumps fingers saying;
I don’t understand why his hands are the size of someone who is 5-foot-2. And you know what they say about men with small hands? You can’t trust them.
Trump obviously couldn’t keep quiet about the personal attack. He responded to Rubio saying, ‘Rubio hit my hands. Nobody has ever hit my hands.’
Look at these hands. Are they small hands? And he referred to my hands – if they’re small, something else must be small. I guarantee you there’s no problem, I guarantee.
Trump has famously been defensive of his hands since Spy magazine first called him a “short-fingered Vulgarian” in 1988. Trump still occasionally sends the editor of the now-defunct publication pictures of his hands to prove that his fingers aren’t short.
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton posted this to her official Twitter page.
From being an actual presidential debate, it has spiralled to become a comedy sketch. Well done, candidates. Well done.
