I think Dr. Carson is a good man and I would like to see him in the next administration in some capacity, but he’s not going to be elected president.
Sorry. I no longer have much use for Dana Loesch.
Not since she outed herself on that bastardly TNR issue.
Dana => Glenn => Cruz
This is a Cruz team member telling Carson to get out. Bad.
Precisely.
If one follows the link, and googles other links, one finds that it was, at least for a short period, an issue for Trump to discuss. This period happens to align with a significant drop in Carson’s Iowa polls and surge in Trump’s Iowa polls.
What a waste of stump time, to discuss this with it’s simultaneous change in poll positions, in lieu of the economy, debt, military, Constitution, private property, liberty, ....
I saw someone else that did that earlier today.
I ROFL’d at that.
Hate to foist a little truth on you, but the “pathological†part of this came from one of Carson’s own books, not Trump - who, by the way, simply said one doesn’t get over a pathological tendency for violence (which is what Carson said he had), anymore than other pathological problems, such as child molestation. He didn’t by any stretch of the imagination infer that Carson had this problem.

Yea, the blood was coming from Megyn’s eyes and the wild gesticulating while talking about the handicapped guy was just Trump doing his normal stuff (well, except that he never has done the same thing before or since).
If Trump is so smart, why would he leave these things out there to be so misinterpreted?
Answer: Because they are fully intentional, while giving him plausible deniability for the low information voter.
There are other pathological conditions more closely related to the anger management issue that Carson revealed than child molestation, but Trump went with the worst on purpose. And it stuck in people’s minds. And you would have us believe that it was not intentional.
No sale.
“If one follows the link, and googles other links, one finds that it was, at least for a short period, an issue for Trump to discuss.”
Big deal. That absurd “stabbing” story and that lunacy about the pyramids was the beginning of the end for Carson. All Trump did was capitalize on it in order to hurt Carson in the polls... and it worked.
“Yea, the blood was coming from Megyn’s eyes and the wild gesticulating while talking about the handicapped guy was just Trump doing his normal stuff (well, except that he never has done the same thing before or since).

I don’t really care what you believe, but it’s silly to think that if someone says something that YOU can misinterpret, that THEY’RE somehow stupid.
And I said Trump was stupid where, Pravious?
My point is that he is smart enough to provide himself with cover while saying exactly what he wants people to hear. It’s quite clever to be able to say one thing and have people hear something else.
So, while I don’t care in the slightest for Donald Trump, I am paying him a compliment.
Reading comprehension appears not be a strong suit.
Correct. Trump now owns the rhetorical field. He uses so few words to spread his message that what he says is important. In using so few words and repeating so many of them, his rhetoric is open to interpretation when he uses certain words or phrases only once.
BS. Trump most definitely implied that Carson had that problem and that the only cure for someone like that (Carson) was the death penality or castration.
"He wrote a book and in the book, he said terrible things about himself," Trump said of Carson. "He said that he's pathological and he's got basically pathological disease ... I don't want a person that's got pathological disease."
"I said that if you're a child molester, a sick puppy, a child molester, there's no cure for that - there's only one cure and we don't want to talk about that cure, that's the ultimate cure. No there's two, there's death and the other thing. But if you're a child molester, there's no cure, they can't stop you. Pathological, there's no cure."
You do know that Trump was nearly thrown out of his private elementary school in the 2nd grade because he punched a music teacher in the face just because The Donald didn't think the teacher knew much about music. Trump actually wrote about it in The Art of the Deal - a book BTW only second to the Bible according to The Donald.
"In the second grade I actually gave a teacher a black eye -- I punched my music teacher because I didn't think he knew anything about music and I almost got expelled," Trump says. "I'm not proud of that, but it's clear evidence that even early on I had a tendency to stand up and make my opinions known in a very forceful way. The difference now is that I use my brain instead of my fists."
How is that pathological and violent behavior and learning another path, any different from Carson's?
“And I said Trump was stupid where, Pravious?”
Here, dmz. When you wrote:
“If Trump is so smart, why would he leave these things out there to be so misinterpreted?”
Dana is racist
It’s Carson who described himself as pathological, not Trump (who was merely quoting him). You can work yourself into a Trump Derangement Syndrome fit all you want. Have fun.
In a few weeks I’m pretty sure it won’t matter.
“If Trump is so smart, why would he leave these things out there to be so misinterpreted?â€

LOL.
Are you familiar with the meaning of the word IF? Apparently not.
Again, go back and read the original post but really slowly this time. Maybe you’ll understand, maybe not. I’m leaning towards the latter.
The entire point (which you clearly cannot see due to the blood coming out of your wherever) is that Trump is saying/doing these things intentionally, knowing full well that his low information voter base will take him at face value when he denies the obvious, and the rest will provide cover for any number of reasons.
Which category are you?
If you want to parse words and ignore the meaning of them, go converse with Bill Clinton. I’m done.
Dana used to be cute and funny, now she is always angry and wagging her finger at the camera - not to mention she’s started to make herself up to look like she is auditioning for a spot as one of Fox’s bimbos.
But then, I’m sure she and Glenn Beck are bleeding viewers, considering that they are practically 24/7 anti-Trump - insulting a large part of their paying audience in the process - so I can understand why she would want to have something lined up with another network for when Beck’s empire collapses on itself.
Carson will drop out when Carson says it’s time, not when Ted Cruz and his mouthpieces say so. In the meantime, I do hope he takes some votes away from Cruz. Kharma can be a real b!#*h sometimes.
