“Donald Trump is already doomed: Why his campaign is a bigger disaster than his hair,” screamed the headline of a July 6 Salon headline.
The TV billionaire has only just announced his candidacy--yet he's already made enough mistakes to last a lifetime.
In fact, Trump was not doomed at all. On June 10 of this year, a week before Trump announced his candidacy, I explained why. “The Republican nominee for president,” I wrote, “will be that candidate who best learns that there is no future in apologizing.”
When I wrote this, I had no idea Trump was planning to run for president.
In the subsequent two months, he raced to the top of the polls not because of his character or his wealth or his policy positions, but precisely because he has refused to apologize for the provocative things he has said.

Yup, and yet there are those who like to point out that since he hasnt any experience, et al. He is not qualified. Then, out of the other side of their mouth they spout...GOPE GOPE GOPE!!!!!
What has the GOP stood for since whenever? NOTHING BUT SHYSTERISM. Thats what.
Jack is an excellent writer-—sometimes right, sometimes wrong, but not afraid to go out on a limb. He did a good book on Ali and Frazier.
Trumps mother was a McLeod, whos clann motto is, Stand Fast.
Interesting and seems very true. Like the comments says, Trump is the only one with the balls to say what he wants and stand by it. While the others hide, parse their words, and go begging for money, Trump is out campaigning. No one owns him, which is a big asset at the moment.
Apologizing to liberals is like apologizing to a rattlesnake - the snake does not even know what you mean by it, and will sink his fangs into you anyway. Regardless of consequences.
Liberals would be GREAT players in the Middle East. They would provide entertainment to the various Muslim factions for a short while, just before they are demolished completely, and whatever goods they brought with them would be confiscated and become tools for one or another of the remaining factions to attempt to defeat their neighbors.
Trump always is and will be Trump. That may be what we need.
Duncan McLeod, the Highlander? Famed for his immortality, you know, from the series.
“There can be only one!”
Bttt
My concern is that Trump is being used by the left, which controls the enemedia, to foist a ¡Yeb! nomination on us. Just as they are controlling the airwaves with All-Trump-All the time now, they can wait till a more agenda-appropriate time to inject Trump poison into the campaign, where ¡Yeb! is the main guy still standing, to reap the change in front-runner.
Who else would have had the guts to say what he did about Huma, Hillary and Weiner. He puts the blunt truth out there, doesn’t back down and forces the opposition to eat it.
There can be only one.
The only way to fight the left is to stand tall. You have to be able to take their crap. You stand tall by knowing you are right and realizing that when they get their way, the country and the culture are being torn down with your capitulation.
Crossing the aisle, or joining with them, is a total loss.
I can't stand the GOP anymore because they act like losers and have accepted the leftist narrative as their own. The worst part is that they have no will or courage to lead. They are an embarrassment.
With no fighting opposition, this country is about at the end of the road.
Darnit, you beat me to it.
Trump has far more experience at all things than Barack Hussein ever had.
ahhh..... thus the Presbyterian heritage
it was southern Presbyterians that turned the tide against Cornwallis and thus the revolution
meanwhile..... go Scott
concern?
Trump's already been killed by his illegals comments and his McCain comments....
“The Republican nominee for president,” I wrote, “will be that candidate who best learns that there is no future in apologizing.”
Someone please print this on 1000 posters and stick them up all over the hall where the Republican debate is planned.

I am so sick and tired of hearing this type of drivel. Listen up folks ... why would Trump put everything on the line to throw the election to somebody else. It DOES NOT make any sense. Get over it, he’s in this to win it.
