Trump Promises to Never Use Profanity Again
Mediaite ^ | 02/12/2016 | Alex Griswold

During a Thursday night speech in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Donald Trump promised the audience he'd never use profanity again.

Trump was railing against "political hacks," when he stopped short of using a worse term. "I won't use foul language," he said to the crowd. "I'm just not going to do it, I'm not going to do it."

They're all saying, ‘Do it, do it.' No," Trump said. "I'm not. That's better, right?"

"Even if it's not a bad word, if it's a little bit off they kill me, so I won't do it. I'll never do it again, actually," he promised.

I agree. I don’t think he considers “hell” offensive. I watched the rally last night and I didn’t hear him say that he won’t be using ANY profanity, just some words.

An appropriate promise for Lent.

"They're all saying, 'Do it, do it.' . . ." "Even if it's not a bad word, if it's a little bit off they kill me. . . ."

Notice how Trump often shifts things off to an unnamed "they"--in this case, two unnamed "theys"--instead of taking ownership of it himself.

Re: The concerned public

I was speaking (posting?) tongue-in-cheek.

Liberals don't hold their candidates to any standards of morality or civil conduct.

Victory over the evil Constitutionalists is their only concern.

Well, it seems Cruz’s parents also made promises with each of their multiple marriages and subsequent divorces. And, they might not have even been married when Ted was born. So, stop your hypocritical finger pointing - Mr. Self-Righteous, Pharisee.

I’m glad you wised p to Ted Cruz being a phony and cameleon. You just know he’s going to speak in preachy tones while in the Bible belt as he imitates Elmer Gantry.

No matter how you feel about Trump’s politics, he is taking a sledgehammer to Political Correctness every single day, and shattering the myth that only slick “career politicians” groomed by their parties and moneymen can make a successful run for President. It’s about time.

Exactly how is the word ‘pussy’ profanity?

You're right you big pussy. Any word is ok if it can otherwise be used in a different connotation.

Wouldn't you agree Dick?

Trump never apologized for the profanity he has used... Not accepting his word.

Reading some of the commentary— are we really so lacking in sense of humor that we don’t recognize it? I think it’s called tongue in cheek, what Trump said. Gotta have a funny bone these days.

"Pussy Galore . . . Pussy Riot . . . What's new, Pussycat?"

The term "pussy" is considered cool, and cheeky, and edgy, and hip when used by libs, but when a conservative or Republican uses it, it suddenly becomes vulgar and in bad taste, the subject of condemnation.

His promise is as good as his marriage vows.

Not that I know of, but it doesn’tmake any difference. You can’t point the finger at one person and give another a pass. Look - Trump doesn’t need your vote. Just stick to your self-righteous, phony, baloney, candidate, who apparently, likes to think he is the face of God.
