Corzine was a corporate politician (he succeeded by kissing ass)...Trump is an entrepreneur from a family of entrepreneurs (Trump kisses no one's ass).

Very different breed of cat.

Corzine is a crook...Trump simply plays to win.

Please consider that you may be wrong. I do all the time.

So then Trump wasn't kissing Clinton rear end when he donated 100K to their corrupt fund?

When Trump pays out $100 G's, he gets a $100 G's plus in return.

That's not kissing arse...that's bidness.

He's buying a $100,000 worth of Clinton...and then some.

Sadly, I think you may have nailed it.

For me it’s been a brief fling with HOPE. A ten day interlude that brightened the political landscape. At this stage of my life I let go of delusions much faster than I did as a young woman.

When I see sane people trying to twist reality to fit their hopes, to make excuses we would never make for anyone else, I know it’s time to let go of my own hope this guy might be a viable choice.

I’ve learned some new information. Megyn Kelly has an ego close to Trump’s and she’s fixated on some cloudy sense of “woman as victim”...while behaving as anything but. She lacks class.

"Doing business" with a corrupt politicians is a good thing?

It doesn’t matter. It just doesn’t matter. To many of the people (including Freepers) who support Trump, what he says, what he has said, what he does, what he has done....none of that matters.

It’s a cult of personality. They like Trump, or the idea of Trump, at least. And so they shape the reality of Trump to fit the idea, facts be damned. Trump says something they like? Great, he’s the best! Trump says something they don’t like? Well, we all change our mind, he’s still the best!

Very well said. It's sad to watch because one hopes/assumes that learned conservatives wouldn't be susceptible to such phenomenon, but alas it seems buying into these cults of personality can affect people of all political stripes.

Yes, because it's Trump. If it were ANY of the other candidates they'd be vilified by the same people who will defend Donald Trump for doing it.

Trump has been for massive tax increases, single payer healthcare, had a position of complete pro abortion, just a few years ago said he was a Democrat, praised Hillary Clinton, said Obama fixed the economy, etc, etc, the list just goes on and on and on. If any other candidate had these positions or said these things they'd be hated by the Trumpsters, but because it's "the Donald" and his cult of personality all is forgiven.

Lol. Have you not been paying attention? Folks keep saying this, every time he comes out and says something new. This is it! The end of the Donald! And the next day his poll #'s are higher. Lol. Nice try though. Don't you have anything better to do? You know, like spit shining some GOPe jackboots?
The campaign has only just started... and like the thin skinned political whore Strumpet, you are emotionally twisted into a knot over a comment -LOL!

Follow through with your squeal - like your Warren Buffett tax hiking fraud candidate and threaten to go third party for President Hillary.

Of course not, in 10 years, Obama faced no question even close to one asked by Fox last night. Obama would have cried and bitched for weeks.

And the questioners called racists just as anyone who questions Her Heinous Hillary Rotten Klintoon will be called misogynist.
