Donald Trump is relentlessly attacking Carly Fiorina after her rise in the polls
businessinsider.com ^ | SEPTEMBER 21, 2015

Real-estate tycoon Donald Trump has a new campaign-trail foe: former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina.

On Sunday and Monday, Trump has gone out of his way to trash Fiorina's candidacy, blasting her business record, her electoral prospects, and even how she sounds when she speaks.

"I think that she's got a good line of pitter-patter. But when you listen for more than five minutes, you develop a tremendous headache," Trump said Monday morning on "Fox & Friends."

Trump had a similar line during a Sunday interview on ABC's "This Week."

"She's got a good pitter-patter," Trump observed, according to an ABC transcript, "but if you listen to her for more than five minutes straight, you get a headache."

But Trump has even more aggressively bashed Fiorina's tenure at HP and Lucent, another technology company.

"She did a terrible job at Hewlett-Packard. She did a terrible job at Lucent. I mean, those companies are just a disaster and she destroyed Hewlett-Packard,"

Kinda like Bob Dole always talking about himself in the third person. :-)

All you have to do is look at the tone of the discussion on this board.

Idiotcracy made real.

Trump even said Oprah Winfrey would make a great Vice President. Oprah Farking Winfrey! Let that sink in for a second. Then tell me different.

Anyone who advocates the DREAM Act and any other accomodation of illegal aliens and their employers is not on the side of the citizens or the rule of law.

Are you talking about Trump? If so, I agree, the guy would not make a good president.

I have heard her say the very same things word for word in her campaign speeches.

They didn’t need to give her the questions before hand. They just needed to listen to her speeches and give her an opening to utter her memorized lines.

These Trump people are going to be the end of the Republican Party.

It can’t be Trump or nothing. It can’t be Trump or there’s a scorched earth policy.

Keep an open mind. Stop being the terrorists of the Republican Party.

Too late....the Republican Party created the “Trump people”.

It’s payback...very predictable...and necessary.

Years ago I always bought H.P , but they kept breaking and the last straw is when I had to call an Indian center who told me his name was Steve and the only English he seemed to know what “No problem”

Apparently, you have no sense of humor. He was kidding just as he said Kanye West would make a great VP or Gary Busey for Supreme Court Justice. Let that sink in for a second, then buy yourself a sense of humor.

Well the two things I always bought for my business were HP computers and printers. I still have my HP printer and its going strong 10 years later. My HP desktop is still doing great at about 10 years. I don’t use it much anymore except to print Mr. GG2’s business cards and other minor things but its a very fast and powerful computer. I wish my laptop was as fast. I keep it in case we decide to start another business. I don’t know about the new HP stuff. Probably inferior.

I’m aware of your conspiracy theory. I’m just trying to figure out why you guys think Trump is the solution.

Listen, the last seven years have drained any desire to have anybody thinking the Presidency is some kind of joke or internship.

You may not care about the likelihood of a tabloid-style presidency, but I do.

I’m tiring of all of them already and that’s likely not a good thing. iCarly was awful at HP. It’s pretty much not even a debate if you remove the affect of the Compaq merger from her tenure - a deal which brought no value to HP shareholders.

I wonder what Trump thinks of Rubio?

HP donates millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood. Not bought an HP in years.
