I'm finally impressed by Trump
Vanity | 5/31/2016 | Self

Posted on 05/31/2016 8:35:56 AM PDT by JimSEA

I've not been impressed by Trumps tactics and ridicule and don't care for some positions. HOWEVER today's press conference and Trump's handling of the press is changing my mind. He's doing extremely well and the press is being leveled for the most part. Credit given where credit due.

Go Trump.

I think the thing that stands out most for me is not a particular policy position... either what I like or what I don't.

What stands out for me is that Trump loves America and he is having the time of his life running for President.

Every time I watch one of his conferences or rallies, it is evident that he is having fun. What a contrast to the dour, sour, subservient Republican brand.

And the difference is glaringly obvious when you contrast with the Death March vibe from the Crooked Hillary campaign.

First he took the media to task for dishonest reporting particularly on Veterans contributions. All facts, amounts, organizations and dates. The kind of answer l appreciate.

You should make an exception for Trump press conferences. Those are quite different from “watching the press.”

Yeah, panties all in a twist on CNN. Cruz surrogate, Kerry surrogate, etc. This is exactly why Trump calls them sleazy. And of course nobody mentioning Hildabeast never holds pressers.

Trump kept repeating Sessions’ name, “Jeff Sessions” at least 3 or 4 times. I think that might have been a hint at who his VP pick might be.. Hmmm..

You might be right. Newt just made some disparaging comments about something Trump did. He may have received some disappointing news.

“...VP pick...”

I am hoping for Allen West as VP pick however I totally trust Trump’s judgment.

Watch some of his rallies.

He comes across as being sincere and believable. Especially pay attention to his connection with the audiences. He talks TO them, not AT them.

The others come across as typical politicians making typical promises that they have no intention of fulfilling.

Trump is coming from the outside. I figure if he does 1/2 of what he promises, then he will be 10 times better than the last 4 presidents.

What did Newt say?

I was one of the early Trump skeptics myself. But he’s won me over. The presser really validated my choice. I’m all in for Trump.
