What Trump said may have been factual, but it was also irrelevant. Trump may have been speaking truth when he said that John McCain would never have been considered a war hero if he hadn't been a POW, but it was a stupid response.

He's out of his league. He is used to buying influence -- he practically brags about it. And folks, he bought his celebrity status. He doesn't need to sink much into his campaign because he's already invested about 10 years of media "personal brand" imaging. He puts a value on that "personal brand" of many billion. That should tell you something.

“He is used to buying influence — he practically brags about it.”

I like that he knows how it all works from that side. Brag away.

“And folks, he bought his celebrity status.”

He worked for years, creating and running a very popular tv show. I like that he knows how to mobilize support and how popular culture works.

“He doesn’t need to sink much into his campaign because he’s already invested about 10 years of media “personal brand” imaging.”

Really smart. I appreciate that you are pointing out how far-sighted Trump is.

“He puts a value on that “personal brand” of many billion. That should tell you something.”

Every great company should have brand value. Apple, Coca Cola, etc. Again, he is accurate.
