One of the things that has troubled me the most about Donald Trump is his lack of emotional maturity. Unlike with a reality TV show host, it is vital that the president of the United States be grown up and mature. But Trump, time and time again, acts like a child, name-calling, holding grudges, and crying when things don't go his way.
Case in point: the Iowa caucuses. On election night Trump grudgingly congratulated Ted Cruz. But now he's saying that Cruz "stole" the Iowa caucuses by repeating a news report that Ben Carson was about to leave the presidential race (which, by the way, may well be true - how many candidates do you know right now who have flown all the way home to "pick up some more clothes"?). Here's what Trump tweeted:

The emotional angle is that Trump is acting like a crybaby. At first he said he was "honored" to be in second. He even said he would buy a farm in Iowa. Then he said he hadn't really tried very hard in Iowa. Now he's saying that because Cruz supposedly said untrue things about him, the whole process wasn't "fair." (Actually, Trump was in favor of single-payer and was long in favor of partial-birth abortion, so those statements were quite true.)

Those Iowa grapes were sour anyway.
Getting tired of Trump? Trump did more to derail Dr. Carson’s campaign than Cruz’ surrogates. His unrelenting bashing of fellow Republicans is doing nothing but giving ammo to the democRATS. He states Scott Brown would make a good VP and he talks of making deals with Pelosi, Reed et al. We’re in the trouble we’re in because RINOS HAVE been making deals with the RATS. Maybe its time for the TRrumpster to start some attacks on the RATS.
Boy, have you encapsulated everything I distrust in this phony. That voice! It’s on a par with Hillary’s!
What does playing gutter politics in Iowa say about Cruz’s temperament?
Principled?? That dog don’t hunt no more.
WOW! Karl Rove Explains How Cruz Campâs Cheating Stole Iowa from Trump

I love it.
Karl Rove (the establishment hack) used to trash Ted Cruz on Free Republic.
You’re scrapping the bottom of the barrel.
What does playing gutter politics in Iowa say about Cruz’s temperament?
And what does Cruz losing U. S. Senate votes 99-1 say about his temperament? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black, LOL.
Ad Hominem logical fallacy - when you can’t refute the message. Very cute.
It's even worse than that. Here's an example of 'Trump Airlines', another Trump failure that didn't result in a bankruptcy, "just" a default:

I wonder, if you add up all the bankruptcies and defaults, would Trump's net worth be negative, or positive?
Well, well...

“...... In September of 1990 Trump defaulted on his loan and control of the airline went back to the banks led by Citibank. Unlike most other airlines that failed during this time period, the Shuttle was still a valuable asset given its business-oriented customer base and access to slot-controlled airports in New York and Washington.
Citibank put the airline up for sale, and after some lengthy negotiations with Northwest and American, settled on a deal with USAir Group. The company would take 40% ownership of the airline for 10 years, while managing the airlineâs operations under the USAir Shuttle brand. The same deal gave USAir the option of buying the entire operation outright after five years, which they did in 1997. In April 1992 the Trump Shuttle was no more.”
Same crap as before with a new wrapper. These articles only serve to keep anyone from looking at the real issues.
Oh, please! Not Jeb, not another Obama-like puppet
on strings obeying his NWO masters who are shadowy
and evil and call Conservatives terrorists.
As for that “terrorist” accusation, Pot? Meet Kettle.
Yeah, he does something about it, when he gets crossed in any way, even slightly, he calls names, ugly names, he whines, he holds grudges.
I don’t care about Cruz so much, but let’s be honest, he didn’t steal. When you fall for that lie, and repeat it, YOU lie. Not unlike your hero.
How typical of a Trump sycophant. Attack the messenger.
Yeah, nothing like those lies put out by Trump and his cult. No, nothing.
I wasn’t so much in favor of Trump, but certainly not AGAINST him, until his cult started showing just how ugly he and his group are. Now I’m implacably against him. Ugly (in the actions sense, I don’t care what he looks like) Mean. Poor character. Liar. Temper tantrums. ugh.
It tells me that Trump is a fighters and that , ONCE AGAIN, Cincinatus' Wife. is doing her damnedest to minimize Trump because Cruz is destined to be an "also ran", and she is NOT ready to handle that reality.
illegible?!!!!
Oh yes, definitely. Vote based on whose voice you like best.
