Is Trump a modern day John Wayne?
Self | 8/26/2015 | Boomer

Posted on 08/26/2015 12:55:14 PM PDT by Boomer

In watching the interaction with Trump and Ramos I thought of John Wayne when Trump told Ramos to sit down several times and then a final time with authority.

I like to think John Wayne wouldn't have put up with the rudeness from Ramos either.

I dunno. Maybe Trump is a cross between John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, Ronald Reagan, and of course, himself in many ways.

One thing is for sure; I know I'm tired of weak effeminate male leaders of which we have far too many in DC now starting with obummer, McConnell, and Boehner. I hate to admit it but Reid and Pelosi have bigger cajones than our current congressional leadership.

What say you?

LOL. This is hilarious. I have often pointed out Trump acts exactly the opposite of John Wayne. John Wayne never ran his mouth off like a hysterical teenage drama queen.

John Wayne wasn’t effeminate, he didn’t constantly brag and constantly talk. He didn’t get into petty feuds all the time. Trump is 180 degrees from John Wayne.

Dirty Harry.

The rest of the candidates do not have the balls, the stones, the huevos, the fortitude, the spine, the single minded drive, the FU money nor the power to take on the GOPe, the CoC, the MSM and the Corruptocrats and leave them crying and asking what in the hell just happened. Why does my butt hurt so much?

Trump does, and he has shown us he has no problem putting a lot of butt hurt into the aforementioned groups.

Do I trust Trump 100%? No!! Is he the only one who isn’t funded by the CoC or other self interested big donors? Yes!! Walker is a good man. I see that. I saw him hold out against immense pressure in Wisconsin. Cruz is a better man. Smart as hell in addition to him stand up to leadership, and call them liars. They have taken on sacred cows. I give them that.

Trump has been skewering the sacred cows on his lance as he rushes enemy positions. The mans frigging lance looks like a shish kebab. Walker and Cruz showed fortitude before they started running. Since, not so much. Trump is slaying the opposition, and driving their women and children before him before salting their fields.

He is a flawed man, but as I say, the Lord works in mysterious ways. A lot of us have been praying for a >>Dirty Harry style ass kicker<< to represent us.

That is why he will win.

John Wayne never ran for office. Running your mouth is part of the deal when doing so but I do see your point.

Cruz is the only one in my book for President, However Ted should make him the “Press Secretary”. Now wouldn’t that be fun?

Another good point, John Wayne never ran for office.

But your argument doesn't hold up, because Trump acted this way long before he ran for office. He's been this way since the 80s and he has never been manly.

Trump is winning a political campaign.

John Wayne though cool, didn’t show up in time to help Beverly Hillbilly’s Granny fight off the indians. She had to do it herself.

Reagan ran for office, and he didn’t act anything like Trump.

I can vividly picture the ‘deer in the headlights’ look from EVERY OTHER CANDIDATE (except Cruz) if they had been confronted that way

Not one of them would have had the balls to tell him to sit down and shut up

What the heck does that mean? Would you want Trump to rescue you? I’m sure he could trade insults with a cheer leading team, but if went physical, they’d kick his butt.
