For the most part people within his circle respect him greatly. His children are not hooked on heroin and appearing nightly on the tabloid shows. His ex-wives do not speak unkindly about him. These are all clues that add up to the inherent decency of the man. Perfect? No. Hardworking, patriotic, and smart? Yes.
You may not have intended it to be but your comment sure sounds like damning with faint praise.
The truth is, is that after a Community Organizer has sat in the White House for 8 years, anybody else would be better.
The damage to US interests around the world will be the final damning of the current resident at Pennsylvania Avenue.
Yes, Trump is a loose canon.
Yes, he can be vulgar at times and that is definitely not what we are used to. We are used to “polished” liars.
Yes, he can sound sexist and even the classic “racist” but he is not.
He's rough around the edges, he a roughneck billionaire from the Bronx.
Yes, he is unfiltered and many other things but...
can America allow herself to be duped again?
At this crisis point in history (sped up by the current administration) we need a brash, in your face, power projecting, master negotiator SOB. America is so far in the hole that she does not even see the light of day. If this man, Donald, is a super patriot, a man who loves America and shows that he has the guts to at least TRY and move us out of the hole, then he deserves a fighting chance.
No other candidate projects the old Yankee “Can do” attitude and that is a very positive and refreshing breath of fresh air in a country that has stagnated and reversed it's promise since 2008.
Will watch it when I get a chance. Trump reminds me of a businessman I worked for once. Could be generous and compassionate but could rip someone a new @sshole when necessary. Took himself from being a kid from a dirt poor sharecropper’s family to a wealthy businessperson. I admired him a lot even though working for him was often no picnic. Made the highest salary I’ve ever made in my life.
