Just another pile on Trump thread.

Good point!

No.

I don’t claim to be holier than Thou.

I said that based on my observations of his behavior and based on his personal history.

I could say the about any public figure.

Is there some sort of new rule around here that you cannot criticize DT at all? That he is above all forms of criticism. Of course he is free to attack anyone he wants, say anything he pleases, use foul language, sleep with anyone he wants. Call people names like pussy and liar. Spout outrageous conspiracy theories. He can sure dish it out, but he can’t take it.

Don't they usually call themselves "the Face of God" or some such?

Ted tries to bring Jesus to everyone. You can see it in his 100% pro-life stance.

[Balding_Eagle]

Your tagline is a lie.

It's a lie because it's only half of the truth.

Trump says, "I've been greedy, greedy, greedy all my life. Now I'm going to be greedy for the Country.

You knew that, of course, but you have nothing positive to go on, so lies are what you are reduced to.

[Guenevere]

Oh he took it alright...
..they enjoyed beating up on him all night!

But he’s still standing, God love him!

Trump is audited for the same reason Ben Carson and Tea Party members are audited - because liberal elite thugs are bullies.

The more one knows Jesus, the more they can read another’s heart. It’s not that difficult.

I saw trumpy say that he is getting audited because he's such a strong Christian. I was expecting lightening to strike. Pile on trump thread??? Are you serious?? Someone needs to smack orangehead with a 2x4 and tell him to quit lying, taking advantage of, and deceiving simpleminded people.... people like.... hmmmm.. well is there anyone here that he is fooling...???

[Night Hides Not]

In a previous career, I did contract work for a number of publicly traded companies. I always prepared workpapers on issues that the IRS might audit.

Taking that extra step often earned me a return engagement.

Brilliant! Genius! Trump’s so dreamy!

[arl295]

Don’t forget to add Cruz, Rubio, JEB and the rest of the GOPe to your list

"His statements become more bizarre by the day."

I understand his Twitter Tweets this morning are really something. He also misspells lots of words.

[Milton Miteybad]

Maybe they are auditing him because he is saying how many billions he has and the actual returns are not reflecting that number.

Ladies and gentlemen...we have our winner!

This is the kind of thing Trump does that really does worry me. He uses Christianity to draw evangelicals. Trump doesn’t miss a thing and he heard Dr. Carson say he started getting audited right after he spoke at the prayer breakfast. I like much of what he says but not this side.

That being said my daughter said she like Dr. Carson today and I agreed. But, I told her, there’s no choice this election. It’s Trump or them, freedom or tyranny. She agreed.

[Milton Miteybad]

Its a brilliant bit of campaign theater.

While I can agree that it is campaign theater, I would have to say that your bar for "brilliance" is pretty low. ;-)

"Trump says, "I've been greedy, greedy, greedy all my life. Now I'm going to be greedy for the Country."

So it is ok with you if we become a Greedy Country?

[Spunky]

"And then there are people who think he is the greatest thing EVER."

I am calling this the Obama factor. It seems there is a majority of people who now worship Trump just like those who worshiped Obama. They now feel like we have our own God and no matter how much you prove what he is like (just like we tried to show what Obama was like) they are not going to listen.

It is unbelievable what our society has become.

[SeaHawkFan]

Exactly.

[Balding_Eagle]

Well, I have a much higher reading comprehension level than you do, obviously, so my answer is yes.

Yours may vary.
