Trump Trashes ‘Lightweight’ Rubio: ‘My Hair is Better Than His Hair’

In a Wednesday night speech, Donald Trump trashed fellow Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio, saying that he was “no Reagan” and that Trump had better hair.

“I see these people, I see them, I look at Rubio,” he said. “He’s a lightweight, he’s a lightweight. Everyone say ‘Oh Rubio, he’s the next Reagan.’ He’s no Reagan, that I can tell you.”

“Hey, he’s a young guy, maybe he’ll do well,” Trump said. “My hair is better than his hair, that I can say. And I’m a little older.”

“These people… they are politicians, all talk and no action, nothing gets down,” he continued. “They are controlled by special interests. It’s not going to happen, folks. It’s not going to happen.”

On an entirely unrelated note, here’s an old Letterman sketch showing average people can’t differentiate between Donald Trump’s hair and an orangutan’s.
