I'm speaking with myself, number one, because I have a very good brain and I've said a lot of things.
Sorry folks, that's not brilliant, tricky or even great, great! This is Trump...ignorant and egotistical. It's stupid.
If he wins, there's going to be lot of back tracking on FR over the following 4 years.
Such a sophisticated analysis. I presume you have determined that most people who make huge fortunes in business are "ignorant".
Bump.
Is this really the kind of post that drives post moderation and suspension of mail?
If so, half of FR is going to need the same treatment.
You’re preaching to people who are true believers. Their deity needs no advice. The fact that he was praising the foreign policy of Hillary and Obama in 2009 means nothing to them. He is the wisest, greatest man ever. He doesn’t walk on water. He orders water to get out of the way. And if you don’t believe me, Trump will tell you.
And they will believe anything and everything he says.
The Bible teaches that wisdom is found in the counsel of many. But that is only for mortals...

He is providing Democrats with all the ammo needed to destroy him in a general election. Trump can’t get REPUBLICANS to agree with him! In any normal primary, people gather to a winner...but about half of the Republicans refuse to follow Trump.
It will be slaughter in a general election, even with the Democrats running the most repulsive candidate they can dig up.
Now we are told by the man himself that he has no need of advisors because his brain is so good.
Is there ever going to come a time before the election (after the election there will be much weeping, wailing, rending of a rainments and gnashing of teeth when the inescapable truth dawns) when conservatives will stop making fools of themselves over Donald Trump?
I do believe that is right out of the FDR book. For instance, every morning FDR would get with his Treasury Secretary and set the price of gold. There was no market influence, just what the two of them would conjure up and that would be the price for the day.
Trump is not ignorant. One does not build multi-hundred million dollar facilities in 13 foreign countries by being ignorant.
If Obama had said this there would be multiple threads about it, and Freepers would be losing their minds over it, much like when Obama was skipping his Security briefings. But Trump does it and it’s genius...Total cult of personality around Trump.
Excellent point and so true
Actually it is brilliantly answered. In fact when I read the headline my first thought was, “Yes, I want a President who thinks for himself first...about everything!” This tells me he is of his own mind and mindful. He’ll tell his cabinet this is what he wants to do to achieve such and such outcome.
I run my own business and am very much the same way. I think about things for myself first, how does this help my business, etc. Then I may or may not discuss it with the staff until I am damn good and ready too. It isn’t egotistical, its business.
Trump is a business person first and if he can diffuse all the political crap in DC, our country will be better because of it. And if 0bama hands him a catastrophe or economic collapse...I don’t think there is a better candidate to handle it.
