Anderson Cooper tells Donald Trump he argues like 'a five-year-old'

Moderator Anderson Cooper had no time for schoolyard excuses Tuesday night during the CNN Republican Town Hall, telling Donald Trump that "I didn't start it" isn't an argument that should be used by a presidential candidate.

Look at what he has accomplished in his life though.

[Mechanicos]

My sticking point was that he was another Ivy League DC insider Lawyer who was full bore Globalist (writing NAFTA, In Bush staff, etc) prior to creating “conservative optics” preceding his hitching his wagon to the Tea Party in his run for office.

Now that hes in trouble he puts his Globalist spots back on and links up with them.

A leopard does not change its spots.

Look what having an “eloquent talker” got us 7 and half years ago. Talks good (so they said) but had accomplished nothing. Big fat zero.

There are thousands of journalists and only one Donald Trump here.
They are far more guilty of misbehavior than he.
Simply observing how his children comport themselves and how his current and previous employees speak about him is evidence of his off-camera courtesy and decency.

“I didn’t start it” is a precise statement. No parsing, no political mumbo jumbo, no nuance.

[pogo101]

No, you illustrate mine: You and about half his supporters are just worshipers who paste your “they’re denying my Comb-over God what is due unto him” nonsense in thread after thread, no matter what the topic.

Look at your fellow worshipers’ comments here. “But Cruz didn’t deny affairs,” even though Donald has not only not denied affairs but boasted of them. Double standard much, worshiper?

[glorgau]

The proper reply to that is : “neener, neener”

[MarDav]

The suggestion in Cooper’s and other’s observation is that, as Trump could very well be the next POTUS, he should ACT like it.

Anderson Cooper has far, far more to lose here professionally.
President Trump will not readily provide him access for interviews.

[FreeAtlanta]

You have a lot of emotional investment in him. I understand.

[Blue Jays]

I find myself rolling my eyes at childish questions and immature behavior demonstrated by Anderson Cooper.
He should know better by now as a professional journalist. Anderson Cooper has very little room to criticize others.

[circlecity]

"What did you say Anderson? Remove the testicles from your face so I can hear you."

Anderson Cooper has had more balls on the chin than a major league baseball catcher.

Did The Donald reply by telling Cooper to stop following him into the mens' room?

[apostoli]

“I’ve heard worse from the current WH occupant IIRC.”

Wow... Freepers now defend TV Star by an Obammy comparison.

Sad really.

[papertyger]

He talks like one too. But the DrumpfHumpers love him for it.

Baaaaaah. Four legs good!

[Girlene]

WHen did Trump attack Cruz’s daughters?

[duffee]

“The media should start treating Donald Trump like the Republican Presidential frontrunner who very well could be the next POTUS.”

They probably will when he starts acting part.

[null and void]

Cooper is incorrect in that he missed by about 10 years.

Whereas most politics is as if they all were three-year-olds.

Even a five-year-old would be an improvement!

[cymbeline]

Cooper can say that about Trump.

Did Cooper pass judgment on Cruz for his ad showing a sexy Melania? Cruz did start something that called for a response “in kind”.

[Safetgiver]

Saying, “I didn’t start it,” is very juvenile, and Anderson Cooper is correct......But no media person has ever said the same To Obama. “Bush did it”.
