But nothing is more frightening than some of the quotes and events\u00a0of this election year! These are just a few of the scariest election year moments (at least so far!) to get you in the mood for trick or treating.<\/p>\n<h2>#1 When Trump compared his dating life to Vietnam<\/h2>\n<p>OK \u2013 this goes back to 1997, but after he made a remark in the current election that John McCain wasn\u2019t a war hero because he was captured, \u201cI don\u2019t like people who were captured,\u201d he said, we had to point out what he said on the Howard Stern show in \u201997. When discussing his dating life, Trump told Stern: \u201cIt\u2019s a dangerous world out there\u2014it\u2019s scary, like Vietnam. Sort of like the Vietnam era. It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave soldier.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>#2 When Trump\u2019s campaign manager went all Fight Club<\/h2>\n<p>In a March rally, Trump\u2019s then campaign manager Corey Lewandowski reportedly grabbed reporter Michelle Fields\u2019 arm, leaving a bruise. But what\u2019s even scarier is both he and Trump denied it, calling Fields \u201cdelusional.\u201d After a release of the video that proved she was telling the truth, Lewandowski was charged with battery.<\/p>\n<h2>#3 Trump\u2019s Demeaning Comments About Women<\/h2>\n<p>No intro needed. Some proof:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president? I mean, she\u2019s a woman, and I\u2019m not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?\u201d (on Carly Fiorina)<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYou could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever.\u201d (on Megyn Kelly)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI think the only card she has is the women\u2019s card. She has got nothing else going. Frankly, if [she] were a man, I don\u2019t think she would get 5 percent of the vote. And the beautiful thing is, women don\u2019t like her.\u201d (on Hillary Clinton)<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;if she wasn&#8217;t my daughter, I&#8217;d probably be dating her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know, it doesn&#8217;t really matter what they write as long as you&#8217;ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And last but not least\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrab her by the pussy\u201d (in the notorious video from 2005).<\/p>\n<h2>#4 When Hillary got Pneumonia<\/h2>\n<p>When Hillary got diagnosed with pneumonia, she ignored her doctor\u2019s orders to rest and continued to campaign. At a 9\/11 Memorial ceremony, she left early and collapsed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooking back I know I should have obeyed my doctor\u2019s orders to rest, but my instinct was to push through it,\u201d she said. \u201cThat is what women do every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>#5 When Bernie Sanders danced on Ellen<\/h2>\n<p>OK \u2013 it may be more endearing than scary, but it\u2019s definitely awkward. As he enters, Bernie is seen dancing into the main stage to (even scarier, to Disco Inferno!), his face growing a shade of tomato red. Snaps for the effort!<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EovzA6hejtM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>#6 When Trump pretended to be his own publicist<\/h2>\n<p>Going back in time to the early \u201890s, audio resurfaced of Trump pretending to be his own publicist, a fictional character named John Miller. When asked where he worked before working for Trump, he was vague. \u201cI basically worked for different firms. I worked for a couple of different firms, and I\u2019m somebody that he knows, and I think somebody that he trusts and likes.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>#7 Ted Cruz \u2013 Ted Bundy?<\/h2>\n<p>A \u201cTed Cruz is the Zodiac Killer\u201d meme launched three years ago, and although a laughable joke then, it may not be so laughable now. In April, his wife Heidi addressed the rumor, saying \u201cWell, I\u2019ve been married to him for 15 years, and I know pretty well who he is, so it doesn\u2019t bother me at all.\u201d So you\u2019re not denying it, eh Heidi? Of course, there&#8217;s always the<\/p>\n<h2>#8 Trump\u2019s Love for Hispanics<\/h2>\n<p>Plain idiocy or naivety, Trump decided to show his support for Cinco de Mayo by tweeting a picture of him eating a taco bowl with the caption: \u201cI love Hispanics\u201d, from his Trump tour food court.<\/p>\n<h2>#9 When Carly Sang and Fell<\/h2>\n<p>When Ted Cruz announced that Carly Fiorina would be his vice president running mate, she decided to take a theatrical approach. She sang and then accidentally fell off stage. She disappears for like 5 minutes and no one even looks for her!<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ezJpN_CaDhE\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>#10 Trump\u2019s Wall<\/h2>\n<p>His claim \u201cI love Hispanics!\u201d might not be so true. Trump declared to build a wall between the US and Mexico border to halt illegal immigration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Mexico sends its people, they\u2019re not sending their best,\u201d Trump said. \u201cThey\u2019re sending people that have lots of problems, and they\u2019re bringing those problems with us. They\u2019re bringing drugs. They\u2019re bringing crime. They\u2019re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>And that\u2019s all folks.
