I was originally for Cruz but had no issues w/Trump who was my second.
I was never put off by the way he spoke because I recognized two things 1) he’s not a politician 2) he’s from Queens.
I have plenty of family from NY and they generally speak the same way. I almost fell out of my chair laughing when Trump said that line about making the wall 10 feet higher. Reminded me of the good ole days.
Some people seem to be so beguiled by “silken tongued” political types. You’d think folks would learn over time that that’s not a indicator or truth, sincerity, or, necessarily, intelligence.
So I never liked it when folks jumped all over someone for simple mistakes in speech. I thought those doing so had sticks up their asses.
I often asked those holier than thou people - Hitler was one of the best speakers of all time, does that mean you’d vote for him today?
Democrats and their sycophant media have convinced most people that a president must adhere to a perfect debate and speaking style. Of course, this only applies to non democrat candidates because the media will airbrush any flubs on the democrat side.
