Trump, for good of America, get out of race
CNN ^ | December 1, 2015 | Jennifer Granholm

Posted on 12/02/2015 5:39:48 AM PST by McGruff

Even though some say Hillary Clinton would benefit if you were to be the GOP nominee, for the good of the country I want you to get out of the race. Your lies and vitriolic rhetoric are causing irreparable damage to the nation.

In "The Leadership Challenge," a best-selling tome on leadership by James Kouzes and Barry Posner, 89% of people across the globe identify honesty as the most important characteristic of a leader. It seems counterintuitive, then, that despite spewing lies every week and managing to offend people of every race, creed and color, you have still managed to sit atop the Republican presidential candidate polls for five months. In Trump World, you can fabricate historical events to falsely embellish your golf course, or worse, spread lies about a nonexistent video that you claim showed thousands of Muslims celebrating in New Jersey after the twin towers fell.

There is no reasonable reason for CNN to publish this tripe. They go to a Democrat politician, who is actively supporting Clinton, for comments on the Republican front runner? Even for CNN, this is pretty blatant.

Furthermore, the piece itself is full of assertions and implications, and short on facts. If you think Trump is lying, make specific accusations. Personally, I think that he exaggerated the “Muslims celebrating in the US” line. IIRC, it was hundreds, not thousands, and received limited coverage. But regardless, his core point was correct.

The fact the Dems are giving Trump so much attention tells me they are afraid of him. They are trying to hide it by saying “we WANT Trump to be the nominee.”

Since Dems are Class-A liars, I’m not buying it.

It’s simply not a serious article. A leading democrat berating a leading republican shouldn’t be seen as anything except politics as usual.

Yeah, Trump, don’t get in the way of the trans-national gutting of the American middle class that our elite betters have been carrying out for the last 30 years.

"...I want you to get out of the race."

Yes, I'm sure you do. The left is petrified of The Donald. He is going to throw in Hillary's face everything that Obama has done due to her association, every incompetent thing she did as SOS, every lie, every illegal activity. He is going to body slam her and they know it. There will be no holding back.

Donald Trump: 'Putin has eaten Obama's lunch' on Ukraine


Mar 13, 2014
Eun Kyung Kim: TODAY

Donald Trump slammed President Obama Thursday on TODAY for failing to take a stronger line against President Vladimir Putin in dealing with Ukraine, saying he feared Obama would now make up for lost time with imprudent moves to "show his manhood."

The real estate mogul and reality-TV star, who has criticized Putin for sending military troops into Crimea, said Obama must now take fierce steps to prevent the situation from escalating further.

"We should definitely do sanctions and we have to show some strengths. I mean, Putin has eaten Obama's lunch, therefore our lunch, for a long period of time," Trump said. ..."

Totally ignores 7 years of destruction by Obama. Why should we listen to her?

Oh, she was talking about Obama. The "Trump" in the headline must be the editor's mistake. :)

Dunno. I’m not a bar hopper who enjoys city stuff, so I ignored her idiocy.

I just looked up some stuff. This cool cities stuff not only gave them a sign that said “we’re a cool city.” they also got taxpayer money.

See, tax and spend

As we left the state the day after our moving van departed, we had bumper stickers posted on the back of our cars that read...”Another Michigan Family BLOWN AWAY...Thanks Jenny.”

If you can try to find the video of Jemnnifer Granholm at the last DNC convention in 2012....you talk about someone spastic, she absolutely went nuts on the stage. No wonder my brother-in-law who always voted democratic voted republican in the last Michigan governors race. He said that she was totally horrible, and made a total mess of Michigan, not to mention that she was a Canadian-American.

The only rhetoric causing irreparable damage is the media trying to cover their tracks. They bring up the 911 stuff at every interview, sometimes only that subject. Their talking heads go on and on about it.

If it had just been Trump making a remark buried in an hr and half speech, no one would have noticed. But the media in their rabid mission to cover up can’t let it go, broadcast the “inflammatory rhetoric” over and over again.
