[Vanity] Most informative moments of the MSNBC/Trump Town-hall Meeting (2/17/2016 at 8pm)
Watching MSNBC Trump Townhall tonight | 2/17/2016 | SOL

Posted on 02/17/2016 6:57:58 PM PST by sickoflibs

The first half was little but softball questions, like Joe and Mika asking him to defend what others said about him, with little follow-up questions.

But there were a few key moments later that were very informative to watch for the future.

1) Mika quoted an editorial describing a candidate without giving the source asking who he/she was describing.
Trump responded going through the list and declared ‘That sounds like me’

Mika then revealed that the author in those words was praising Bernie Sanders, not him(Trump).
Trump then went on to explain that Bernie can't win the election but he (Don) can.

2) Trump pointed out that he (after his obvious nomination by the GOP) will win more Democrat's votes than most of the GOP candidates before him.

Might be best to keep an eye on how he tries to do that.

Trump was smart to tell MSNBC to NOT schedule this at 9pm up against Kelly. He knew to avoid getting another ratings a$$ kicking by her.

>> “Trump pointed out that he (after his obvious nomination by the GOP) will win more Democrat’s votes than most of the GOP candidates before him. Might be best to keep an eye on how he tries to do that.”

He and Hillary would debate who could better manage big government.

He could try to out-liberal the democrat nominee by reverting to his pre-conversion views; but, even that won’t work. Trump is the dems dream opponent. Rich, arrogant, rude and the “You’re Fired!” guy.

Against Hillary, all they have to do is replay all the great things he said about her.

You mean Trump's preferred network MSNBC, home of the progressives? Mika loves him.

Hey, he was playing to the Pelosi fans on the Pelosi channel.

Can't wait to see the ratings.

Didn’t Trump choose to be here? I dare say he set up the venue to detract from the townhall with Cruz that night.

Sounds like the smartest man in the room just got himself punked.

Trump, the man who never loses, was at home on MSNBC with Joe and Mika.

RE:”Brzezinski? Wasn't her dad in the politburo?”

He was the genius foreign policy advisor for Jimmy Carter.

Like Jimmy, Trump will get all our enemies to back off with brilliant negotiations and not a gun fired.

He can work with anyone because he is smarter than all the others.

Why can't we have an reasonable alternative to these liberal nutbags and the neocons like Bush and Rubio?

So in other words, that’s a “yes” on the politburo? ;p

I heard Cruz was heading back to Texas before the SC primary. Vote for Trump instead.

RE:” Vote for Trump instead”

If you are a MSNBC lib in an open GOP primary then voting for Trump makes perfect sense.

Until the general election when you vote for Hill/Bernie.

Good luck for America after you do that.
