I know. I reported abuse on two of those utterly disgusting posts.
There are women and children here people.
This is why I’ve tried to disengage from the Cruzbags the last few days.
All of our minds are mostly made up. There’s no convincing on either side. And most of these threads, are just “bait” to try and incite people to participate & bicker, by making comments about Trump that are literally not based on any kinds of facts.
Yep.
Yes The vast Trump-wing conspiracy is out to get Ted...
Ted is so Bill Clinton
You know most of them have lost it, because they’re resorting to really personal insults all over the Internet. People are “pigs”, “morons”, “idiots”, etc.
There were three separate people called out to authorities just this afternoon on Twitter, regarding threats made at Trump.
It’s the worst infection ever!
I can’t help but notice the lack of substance in any of the posts by the little trumpers here.
It’s all blind denial or insults.
Or something so ugly it should be wrapped in plain brown paper.
And it’s all thanks to The Don.
And total demagoguery about the evil Trump
The typical Cruz supporter paradigm that Cruz is the next Ronald Reagan and Trump is the next Hitler is so idiotic that is doesn't even merit discussion
Yep.
Tabloids going after prominent people with sleaze is normal. People who are cyrrently in the news tend to be more prominent so are more likely to be slimed. Being well known but not broadly liked I would surmise is the best kind of target for sleaze peddlars. Trump might have made a great target if he was not as well liked by reality show fans and already seen as kinda a normal blue collar guy who happens to be a billionaire. And really is kinda open about showing his flaws and foilbles...it’s likely not as compelling to imagine what is behind the mask for someone who doesn’t hide it.
Thanks to the mods,the two most offensive posts were removed.
Thank you.
He hasn’t got the discipline to control himself ... how can you expect him to run a country.
He seems to be far more controlled than his critics. He is very disciplined at persuasion, negotiation, hard work, managing lots of large projects and lots of people.
He has shown himself to be extremely patient in the face of violent thugs screaming and shouting and attacking people at his rallies.
He has been insulted and condescended against so much, and has not taken it personally that he has impressed the hell out of me with his fortitude. To defend himself and his view he is not persuaded or cowed by such an onslaught. He carefully picks his target, and makes an example of them by hitting back. It is seen as shocking to those of us who are used to being cowed. And then our eyes start to open. Why shouldn't we stand up for ourselves when insulted and put down? Why should we cower? Why should we be persuaded by mere peer pressure rather than reason? And how should we respond when people mock us and are not open to reason. Make an example of them and tear them up publicly until the are cowed themselves.
Trump doesn't start fights. He finishes them. He is not a wolf, he is a sheepdog.
As for his "numbers around the world", I have an idea. Take a group of people that have absolutely no clue about American politics except what the glean from the MSM. Have the MSM show utter contempt for someone. Then ask the people that have no clue if he is a good candidate. Well duh! What do you expect. Every Republican front runner always drops in opinion around the world. Obama you will recall was so popular "around the world" that he got a noble peace prize. How smart people who know next to nothing can be about things! How clever you are to appeal to their wondrous insightful judgement. Perhaps you could train kids to say vile things about Trump and be proud of how smart the kids are and how dumb and wrong Trump is? Oh no wait...been done already.
Oh I have an idea. Why don't you take a quote where Trump validates what people asked to remain peaceful while being attacked by vile disruptive thugs that it would feel good to be allowed to hit back. And morph it into him being responsible for his rallies being attacked by vile thugs. That is soooo disciplined and noble that is. And next you can start blaming rape victims for dressing too provocatively. Show great class and all. Not like that Donald Trump who is so awful, people that know next to nothing except some guy in America is supposed to be vile thinks is vile. Yeah, lying and slander are great values to support guy.
Fried neurons don't recover usually.
Well, you wasted a heck of a lot of time.
If Trump is so disciplined why can’t he control himself from tweeting stupid stuff.
He is still tweeting about Megyn Kelly. How nuts is that?
He could not stop himself from the idiotic ‘my wife is prettier than your wife’ tweet.
That really shot him in the foot.
Go ahead and love Trump. I can’t stop you. But, know this, he does not return your love.
Interesting. I was reading earlier that Trump supporters never provide any substance. Damned if you give short pithy answers. Damned if you give full explanations I guess. I like giving full explanations. I am sorry if you are in too much of a hurry for them.
If Trump is so disciplined why can’t he control himself from tweeting stupid stuff.
He seems to use it as an outlet, like a lot of people do he sometimes gets heated.
When he decides to show discipline he seems quite able to show it though. Like his poker face and calm attitude in debates.

LOL, I am not in "love" with Trump, but I do respect him. Dismissing him as an uncouth undisciplined loudmouth is very foolish. And simply bashing him as being one when you find a preference cascade in his favor of people who seem to start liking him, instead of looking deeper is pretty sad.
Conservatives have gotten tired of being pushed around. And now we are taking it out on each other. That is pretty sad. But the Trump side and Cruz side see the other as the bullies and many have gotten into a rut of rude back and forth. Both pointing out how rude the other side is.
What made me a Trump guy was when Cruz blamed Trump for the attacks in Chicago. It made me realize Cruz is going to let the innocent get trashed by the thugs.
I don't think Trump will.
I think Cruz is smarter than Trump. Understands law better than Trump. Is more conservative than Trump. But he is simply not the right kind of person to be President and to protect innocent people. And he proved it, and I was quite disappointed.
But Trump is pretty smart. Dismissing him as a dummy may be tempting for people that are not used to his blue collar trash talking style, but he is sharper than most. And like I said before, he is a sheepdog. He plays to win. He plays for his side. He thinks much of himself, but not in some secret way...in an obvious way. And he is not offended by others thinking much of themselves.
I think both Cruz and Trump love this country. And anybody at all would be way better than either democrat candidate...even Gengis Khan.
Trump's initial actions were reaction to pro-Cruz folks going slimy and Cruz folks overstepped their credibility with self-righteous indignation at being subjected (on a smaller level) to what they subjected Trump and his family to.....
