Since Trump supporters think the word “pussy” is good political discourse for a presidential candidate, it should be pointed out that no one has been a bigger pussy than Trump throughout this election cycle. Hell, he couldn’t even handle Megyn Kelly.

LOL...still repeating the same old weak desperate meme that Trump ran from Kelly...lol, pathetic.

You know, if Cruz had said the same thing you would be cheering, but alas, he doesn't have the balls to say it.

I do not like the “sailor” talk in public but that does not have an impact on my support for Trump (Cruz 2nd). When looking after my family I care about food, clothing and shelter. When I look at a Presdient I expect security (physical and economic) leadership and love of country and its people. I will fight for social issues when that umbrella.

Yea, but there’s a big difference between political correctness and just being vulgar and boorish.

Trump who uses words like “pussy” and “f*ck” in his campaign speeches.

An outright lie. He has not used those words as part of his campaign speeches. Trump does speak in the vernacular, which is why he is connecting with the average voter. He is not politically correct. His comments on illegal aliens and the American victims of their crime caused people to call him a bigot and a racist. He called Bergdahl a "dirty rotten traitor" who in the past would have been shot. He called for a temporary halt in Muslim immigration because there is something "terribly wrong" that needs to examined by Congress before taking any more Muslims into the country. He has brought up the bad trade deals that are destroying American jobs. He raised the issue of sanctuary cities. Does anyone think these issues would be front and center without Trump?

Just as children will learn of Bill Clinton’s fondness for fellatio in the Oval Office, we can look forward to them learning of his pal, the thrice-married bragging adulterer,

Trump is a private citizen, not a public official like Clinton who raped and abused women while being governor and President. He was using his cigar in the WH to give pleasure to an intern who was giving him a BJ. Is being thrice married a crime? Or committing adultery? We certainly have had plenty of the latter in our history and Reagan was married twice.

Yes, if you’re a Trumpsters who blindly follows him, if you’re fond of the épater le bourgeois that says all civility is PC claptrap, then Trump has done it again. You can be proud of him. He’s shown he’s a real man, like his time spent in a military academy, which he brags about. But at the end of the day Bill Clinton’s pal, Trump, is a braggart and a phony with out the respect for the norms we normally associate with the US Presidency.

For those like you suffering from TDS, you just can't understand why Trump is topping most of the polls and touching a chord with the American people. The public is pissed off at the political class and their corporate paymasters and special interests. Trump is shaping the race and driving the issues. The RNC and the GOPe have lost control of the process. We should be thanking Trump for being in the race. He is bringing energy, enthusiasm, and many new voters. Do you think that Fox would have drawn 24 million for the Rep primary debate without Trump?

Due to changing demographics fueled by immigration and minority birthrates, the GOP is not going to win elections with just conservatives and independents. They need to penetrate traditional Dem constituencies. Trump is doing that. The Reps have lost the popular vote in five out of the last six elections with Obama receiving the two highest vote totals in our history. The Dems are on the cusp of becoming the permanent majority party. A loss for the GOP in 2016 will mean the end of the party and the country. If the GOP continues to select its candidates from the political class, it will lose.

What a campaign season!

The above is perfectly legitimate this year and serves as in depth analysis.

Honey Boo Boo!

A real class act.

LOL. Reminds be of a retarded woman once standing beside me in a store lineup muttering to herself sh.. fu.. pi..sh.. fu.. pi..sh.. fu.. pi.. over and over.

Here's a sample remark which YouTube edited in the search title. What he said is about 30 seconds into this video.

Not that big a deal (though FR pulled a comment of mine in which I quoted one of his almost-euphemistic f-words) but with Trump it's like someone has to follow a toddler around with a mop cleaning what dribbles out of his diaper.

I think you are confusing the word p*$$% with Christian. Beyond which I will confine myself to observing a striking similarity between Mr. Trump and his followers in their level of civility. Thank you for reinforcing my decision to never vote for the man.

this debate on words is ridiculous, when compared to the urgency of saving the Republic.

Thank you, needs to be repeated over and over, our enemies are everywhere , within and without the country and we're wasting time arguing over words. That's why we're in deep doo-doo! Yes there's a better word to describe doo-doo.

Trump is not a genteel politician. He is a rough and tumble real estate guy that has had to deal with the rough and tumble world of crooked politicians, mafia tough guys, and the myriad of things that are involved in real estate.

"Yea, but there’s a big difference between political correctness and just being vulgar and boorish."

Don't disagree in principle. I would say "vulgar and boorish" are an opinion. In today's culture and exposure, not may are upset. Well, RINO-lickers are. They want "tame men."

Trump isn't tame, for better and worse. Those he attracts have bigger fish to fry - or burn down, as the case might be.

If Cruz wouldn’t use waterboarding to save your life, you GGG, then he is a pussy. Pure, simple truth. Deal with it. The woman in the audience that yelled it out knows it, Trump knew it, the 9,000 attendees knew it, and you know it too.

He’s going after the crass vote and has a common character that will work well for him. And denying that Trump used the “F” bomb shows how credible you are.

If it were just that I would forgive it. Unfortunately it’s the past 2 decades of liberal positions he has taken.....that I do not forgive.

“What do you think of my use of narcissist?”

“I think you just called out Rafael Edward Cruz.”

Are those Trump issued blinders you’re wearing? Do you know what a narcissist is? The symptoms the Donald exhibits? Excessive use of superlatives instead of factual information, lack of empathy exhibited by mocking the afflicted and childish name calling. Not to mention his vindictiveness and rages. A narcissist will surround himself with two kinds of people those who pump him up and those he can put down. Trump should not be making Supreme Court or any other appointments, taking those 3am phone calls or have his finger any where near the button.

Right. No one would have had to ask Cruz about crude attacks on women. That’s Trump’s forte. Cruz doesn’t do it.

“Trump is not a genteel politician. He is a rough and tumble real estate guy that has had to deal with the rough and tumble world of crooked politicians, mafia tough guys, and the myriad of things that are involved in real estate.”

I believe that the place for Trump is back in his world of “crooked politicians”, “mafia tough guys”, “real estate”, developer, construction, casino and hotel owner, and “the myriad of other things” PLUS Reality TV. But I do NOT believe the place for Trump is the Presidency of the United States.

He’s going after the crass vote and has a common character that will work well for him.

Actually, Trump is using Jeff Sessions brilliant template for victory spelled out in his prescient article two years ago. It should be required reading for every Rep candidate at every level.

Becoming the Party of Work--How the GOP can help struggling Americans, and itself. Here is a few paragraphs from the article:

When Americans went to the polls in 2012, the following was true: Work-force participation had sunk to its lowest level in 35 years, wages had fallen below 1999 levels, and 47 million Americans were on food stamps. Yet Mitt Romney, the challenger to the incumbent president, lost lower- and middle-income voters by an astonishing margin. Among voters earning $30,000 to $50,000, he trailed by 15 points, and among voters earning under $30,000 he trailed by 28 points.

And what did the GOP’s brilliant consultant class conclude from this resounding defeat? They declared that the GOP must embrace amnesty. The Republican National Committee dutifully issued a report calling for a “comprehensive immigration reform” that would inevitably increase the flow of low-skilled immigration, reducing the wages and living standards of the very voters whose trust the GOP had lost.

Over the past four decades, as factories were shuttered and blue-collar jobs were outsourced or automated, net immigration quadrupled. Yet the corporate-consultant class has pronounced that an insufficient level of immigration is the problem. A more colossal misreading of the political moment has rarely occurred.

Perhaps the most important political development now unfolding in the U.S. is the public’s growing loss of faith in our political and financial elites of both parties. To open the ears of disaffected voters, the GOP must break publicly from the elite immigration consensus of Wall Street and Davos. Republicans have a clear path to building a conservative majority if they free themselves from the corporate consultants and demonstrate to the American public that the GOP is the only party aligned with the core interests, concerns, and beliefs of everyday hardworking citizens.

As far as your allegation, And denying that Trump used the “F” bomb shows how credible you are. the burden of proof is to provide me with a specific example. I have watch almost all of Trump's speeches as they are streamed live or the replay and I have attended one Trump rally live and have never heard him use the "F" bomb. So prove it.
