Without Trump stirring the pot, Jethro Bush would already have been crowned.
You’re about to take incoming fire for daring to diss Donny Kardahian Trump.
One question: Have you ever run a business?
Couldn’t just comment on one of the other “I don’t like/get Donald Trump” Vanities? Had to create your own?
Think of Trump as a Nuke, we will place this Nuke in Washington D. C., and blow the MFer up.
You lost me in the first sentence when you wrote “the Donald.” If I never see that phrase again, it will be too soon.
You’ve got almost all of the Cruz campaign talking points memorized.
Sorry if the butthurt is worse today, you’ll get really used to it as the race goes on.
in a word ......... “balls”
Well then vote for Cruz/Rubio/Kasich then and give the Trump bashing a rest already.
Trump also supported TARP, the auto bailouts, and the Obama/Reid/Pelosi “stimulus”.
Those of us who worked for Rickover recognize a real leader.
Vanity posts like this are stupid and are designed for no other reason that to stir up crap on here. If you’ve really been following FR, the you’d understand what Trump’s appeal is. If that is too difficult for you to comprehend, then go read some exit polls and you’ll figure it out pretty quickly. I have no tolerance for the endless food fights stirred up from people like you. Pick a candidate and advocate for one but stop the whiny I don’t understand routine. It’s tiresome.
It’s the shock jock candidacy. Trumps talks angry and unedited, people like that. It’s made Howard Stern rich.
You’re overanalyzing it. If you recorded every word Ronald Reagan ever uttered you’d be just as confused about him.
Trump pre June 2015 was a private businessman who did whatever he needed to do to advance his business goals and projects, including donating money to people you seem to not like very much. If it was worth a million dollars to you and your family to say something nice about Nancy Pelosi...well, you answer the question.
Post June 2015, Trump has had to become a politican, where every word is subject to scrutiny, but he doesn’t care. If you can’t accept the differenc, vote for Rubio or Hillary or whomever. But don’t expect anyone to make Trump into a purist, an ideologue, or a politician since last summer.
One, when you use a derogatory term like “Trumpets” in your post, you lose any pretense of objectivity. It makes one wonder what your goal is here.
That aside, point two: I'm a Trump supporter, and I freely admit I'm taking a risk there. I think there's a good chance (maybe 20%, your mileage may vary) that Trump is not a political Patton, and instead he is running some sort of scam. But considering the times, I'm willing to take that chance. Others might not, and I respect that.
There definitely IS something about Donald Trump. He is our modern day Winston Churchill.
I take a man at their word. The positions he puts out now, are the ones I expect he will embrace. With the sole exception of Obama, most Presidents have found themselves hemmed in by their previous words.
“I’m trying to understand FR’s embrace of the Donald, but I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around this one.”
Respectfully, if you don’t get Trump’s appeal you’re being intentionally thick. I want Cruz. That’s my guy. That said, Trump echoes the frustration of the voters, and Paul Ryan’s betrayal only made Trump more appealing. Trump is also a lot more nuanced than you give him credit for, but to me every time he b!tch-slaps the press I applaud. Now the Press is relatively pro-Trump as they conform to abused wife syndrome.
