Will Trump Be Dumped?
NY Times ^ | March 18, 2016 | Maureen Dowd

Posted on 03/20/2016 7:41:10 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

MOST people would be upset to be at the center of an agitated national debate about whether they were more like Hitler, Mussolini, Idi Amin, George Wallace or a Marvel villain.

Not Donald Trump.

He doesn’t like invidious comparisons but he’s cool with being called an authoritarian.

“We need strength in this country,” he told me Friday morning, speaking from his Fifth Avenue office. “We have weak leadership. Hillary is pathetically weak.

“She got us into Libya and she got us into Benghazi and she’s probably got 40 eggheads sitting around a table telling her what to do, and then she was sleeping when the phone call came in from the ambassador begging for help. You know, the 3 a.m. phone call?”

I asked the brand baron if he’s concerned that his brand has gone from fun to scary, from glittery New York celebrity to “S.N.L.” skits about him featuring allusions to the K.K.K. and Hitler. He blamed a “disgustingly dishonest” press.

I wondered about ex-wife Ivana telling her lawyer, according to Vanity Fair, that Trump kept a book of Hitler’s speeches by his bed. Or the talk in New York that in the ’90s he was reading “Mein Kampf.” Nein, he said. “I never had the book,” he said. “I never read the book. I don’t care about the book.”

All over town, even in the building where I’m writing this column, freaked-out Republicans are plotting how to rip the nomination from Trump’s hot little hands.

How does it feel to be labeled a menace, misogynist, bigot and xenophobe by your own party? “Honestly,” he replied, “I’m with the people. The people like Trump.”

Since he prefers to rely on himself for policy advice, is he seeking out expert help on the abstruse delegate rules?

More heavyweights are jumping in to stomp Trump, including Elizabeth Warren. Asked about her jabs, he pounced: “I think it’s wonderful because the Indians can now partake in the future of the country. She’s got about as much Indian blood as I have. Her whole life was based on a fraud. She got into Harvard and all that because she said she was a minority.”

“All of these politicians have said far worse than that,” Trump said, “drunk, standing in a corner.”

LOL... I like him. I like him for the same reason I like Simon Cowell.

Title search can get messed up if using full title. A search on the word

dumped

gives the following

That’s a biased debate .

Authority is not bad if it’s appropiately used for the good !
Christians are supposed to know that !

And the problem with libtards like clintoons and obombas is that they are using a vicious authority for the bad and that they constantly LIE

The odds right now are not too promising and fear that the communists empire, Democrats and some Republicans, will dump Trump. The mass of the Republicans voters want Trump and not too sure the communists can be successful without as real rebellion on their hands.

Trump for President.

Great comeback!

Anyone who says Trump can’t think on his feet is...peddling fiction...

America needs a leader to get us turned around and going in the right direction. The ONLY one I see is Trump.

I laugh every time I see the childish name calling by the press and all the RINOs. “Sticks and stones “ was taught to me and evidently to Trump as well. I just love his instant rebukes.

His good friend was the late, great Joan Rivers.

She must be smiling right now at his ability to respond with scathing humor and truth!

The Fat Cats and media "shape" the news in an attempt to manipulate the weak minded.

On a serious note, you probably did a search for the whole title, “Will Trump Be Dumped?”. Only your thread shows up for that one. Try searching for key parts of the title, such as “Will Trump” or “Trump Dumped” that will handle the case where the poster doesn’t include punctuation.

“She got into Harvard and all that because she said she was a minority.”

She IS a member of a minority! Far less than half the population is that fake and freaky. Well, I hope so anyway.
