Read Donald Trump’s lips: There will be no barking.

A day after Hillary Clinton barked like a dog to mock Republicans at a rally in Nevada, Trump said that because a double standard applied to him, he will not imitate her.


"She’s barking like a dog and they’re saying, ‘Oh wasn’t that wonderful, wasn’t that wonderful? Isn't that cute, isn't that great?’” Trump said at a rally in North Augusta, South Carolina, on Tuesday afternoon. “If I ever did that I would be ridiculed all over the place. I won't do it. I'm not going to imitate her. But she's barking like a dog, and they're saying, ‘Wonderful.’ Trump does it, believe me, you'd read about it. 'What's wrong with Trump?' So there'll be no barking."

Despite Trump’s vow to refrain from barking, he is fond of using the phrase “like a dog.”

Among other uses of the phrase, Trump has tweeted that the United States dropped former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak “like a dog,” that President Obama dumped his reverend, Jeremiah Wright, “like a dog” and that “Twilight” star Kristen Stewart cheated on her co-star and boyfriend Robert Pattinson “like a dog.”
