Trump was out of control in South Carolina debate (Delusional? Only in your fetid imagination troll)
NY Post ^ | 2/14/2016 | John Podhoretz

Posted on 02/14/2016 8:36:23 AM PST by DCdude

Donald Trump was so awful, so horrible, so disgusting in the latest Republican debate — his lies, his distortions, his deceits, and his libels thicker and fouler than they’ve yet been—that he’s done us all a favor. If he wins easily in South Carolina after his monstrous turn, he’ll be going straight to the Republican nomination.

Such a victory in a classically conservative state like South Carolina after his romp in idiosyncratic New Hampshire will prove Trump’s repellent personality is the real key to his success. You want me to delineate his dishonesties? That would be like asking me to count how many breaths he took.

We will not be able to labor under any delusions after a win comparable to his triumph in New Hampshire. We will know for a certainty that the man Republicans want for their tribune in 2016 is a disgusting jerk they somehow believe will have their backs when the only back he’s ever had is his own

The GW Bush Administration relied on “intelligence’ from a low rent lowlife named Achmed Chalabi and his organization which spun a series of lies about WMDs and other “incentives” to drag the US into war. Chalabi was a convicted felon in Jordan, a decent Muslim country, and was suspected of being in cahoots with Iran. Isn’t it interesting that we ended up doing Iran’s dirty work for it, they got rid of an enemy next door, we lost 5000 of our best young men and women, have tens of thousands maimed for life, spent trillions of dollars and we have a first class mess in the Mideast as a result. What else did we get? Obama as president, two left wingers on the Supreme Court, the end of Christianity in Iraq (their eviction follows that of the Iraqi Jewish community by about sixty years) and Jeb Bush still trying to figure out whether the war was a good idea.

"Planned Parenthood does great things"

Abortion, no. Health screenings yes.

"Bush lied about WMD"

Yes. By ignoring the evidence selectively and putting Powell out to present that case to the UN, they deceived. Bush either knew and misrepresented the truth, a lie, or he was an ignoramus. Or both. I posted evidence of this on a thread today.

"Bush is responsible for 9/11.

Absolutely happened on his watch and the buck stops at his desk. He and his team ignored the intelligence we had.

Michael Moore talking points. Invading Iraq *was* the wrong thing to do, even if Saddam Hussein did have WMDs at his disposal. And agree the argument connecting Iraq to 9/11 was weak, at best. To say it was a purposeful Bush lie is unsubstantiated. He received bad advice and made a bad decision for which we continue to pay, but he was not intent on deceiving the American public.

All that proves is that the american educational system has completely collapsed. No one can read the constitution or wants to, xbox and facebook are calling and are way more important to the vast empty that is america today!
I understand the anger, deceitful vapid pols in it for themselves, men without conviction ruling over the masses, making the kinds of deals only a Donald Trump would make!
Go ahead and vote for him if you must, but remember you chose this, you will carry the blame just as the millennials and the educational elitists will carry the blame for Obama!
May God Bless America, just one more time and turn the people away from this foolish, and arrogant Crony Capitalist.

So is man-made global climate change. Notice how global is a key word for sticking it to the US.

“Without Trump, the GOPe and media would have already won yet again.”

I think that is true.

Still doesn’t change the fact that he is crazy and a lefty moon bat to boot.

Something Trump and his supporters would be wise to do, but they won’t because it’s all you got.

Let’s see, Bush has practically zero support in his own party and you believe the crap that he will beat Hillary? How naive are you really?

“It is evident that Trump does not know how to debate in the traditional sense.”

And I’m glad he doesn’t debate in the “traditional” sense.

I still remember the last election how Mittens gave the presidency to 0b0la because he didn’t have the balls to call out creepy Candy Crawley when she lied about Benghazi for 0b0la.

I think based on the poll numbers America is ready to shitcan the traditional debaters in favor of someone with the nerve to stand up to our enemies.

Trump said this morning that Bush had warnings from CIA before 911 and did nothing. Shouldn’t he have tightened security, done any of the things we learned too late? A little foresight would have been good.

Trump has said 6 billion times that he will defund planned parenthood. The fact that he doesn’t condemn them outright is cancer screenings for women, std treatment, etc. Sad that pp had to be so evil because it could have done good.

And most people agree we never should have gone into Iraq. It gave us ISIS, a nuclear Iran.

We will sleep well for 8 years with Trump as Potus.

Do not worry about us.

The Cruzzers, who are still around and have not done a kamikaze on themselves need to get a life.

It is evident that Trump does not know how to debate in the traditional sense.
