Greatest defeat?

At his rally in support of Bevin in Kentucky, Trump said of Bevin, “If you lose, they’re going to say, ‘Trump suffered the greatest defeat in the history of the world.  This was the greatest.’  You can’t let that happen to me!”

But it did happen.  Greater than the Germans losing at Stalingrad.  Greater than the Confederates losing at Gettysburg.  Greater than the British losing at Yorktown.  Greater than Hastings, or Troy, or Waterloo.

Of course that is silly, but I will say this.  It was a really great defeat for Trump.  One of the best defeats ever.  A bigly defeat.  A perfect defeat.
