Donald Trump On Carly Fiorina "I'm talking about persona. I'm not talking about look."

He says it's not what he said, then he says it's what he says.

It's creepy.

Video

"During a Thursday morning interview on "Fox and Friends," Trump was asked if he did in fact make the comments quoted in Rolling Stone.

The real estate mogul first noted that "the pictures in the magazine were magnificent" and that "overall, it was probably a pretty good story."

He then said, "Probably I did say something like that about Carly," adding later that he said it "in a jocular manner." He also said it wasn't about her appearance.

"I’m talking about persona. I’m not talking about looks," he said on Fox. TPM

I would vote for Trump. But I don’t like the man. He’s an inelegant bully. He want to “burn it all down.”

Cruz, on the other hand, uses his intellect and right-mindedness and wisdom and wordsmithing to great effect. Cruz isn’t about “burning it all down.” He’s about severe, Constitutional correction of a nation that’s in collapse.

I really do find it puzzling that FReepers defend Trump’s nasty personal attacks against anyone whom he doesn’t happen to find useful. He said “face,” not “persona.” Don’t pee on my leg and tell me it’s raining.

Thanks. Will keep this in mind as we watch events to come.

Still wondering if the two cannot rise in tandem for a good while longer.

you slammed Trump for personal attacks and now you just made a personal attack about Trump supporters including the owner of this web site Jim Robinson as people with shallow dark souls?

You know, you really should work on your reading comprehension thing. You stink at it. I've always said that some of the Trump support was well reasoned and well thought out - that would include Jims - who I think still is leaning Cruz but who supports Trump's fight against the GOP e and the media and PC. In that, Jim and I are exactly on the same page, as we were in 2011-12 too.

Your pathetic attempt to score points by polishing the teachers apple just speaks volumes about intellectual vapidity and infantile game playing on your part.

I hope you’re having as much fun on this thread as I am. The Trump detractors are in especially good form.

Who cares what type of woman Trump likes? We are not wanting to date the man. If he gets America back on track with jobs and helps our vets, I don’t care if he makes light of all us older, less gorgeous females. I only hope Cruz will be at his side, if Cruz does not become President himself.

You may have a chance to actually save this country, Donald. Don’t say stupid things to F up that chance.

Good news for you. Cruz surged to 7% in the brand new CNN poll.

Trump’s at 32. Perhaps if you just toss a few more childish insults around, you can knock him down to 31.

Yes, just like our dirty Uncle Joe.

(Looking forward to when Uncle Joe starts his Democrat campaign!)

“Shouldn’t we all strive to be a little better than this? And shouldn’t we expect our future leaders to do the same?”

Donald Trump is excelling in popular opinion because he dares to turn the same weapons used upon him back on his attackers. Defeating gutter snipers requires getting into the gutter with them. Donald Trump has been there done that in the business world for decades. I’d be willing to bet that you don’t object to stock brokers and business operators using these tactics if it saves your job or makes you money. This is our government that’s at stake. Maybe we can get nicey nice when Christians stop being persecuted and we become a free nation based on Christian principles again. Or don’t you believe in wars fought for those reasons?

"That is the real Trump. Petty, tacky, narcissist. We are born with the face we have but Trump will use any means necessary to stomp on anyone in his way. Underneath, I believe Trump is an insecure narcissist who must have continuing adoration in order to function. Trump supporters appear not able to see through his glitzy persona."

I think you're right about that. I read that he couldn't get a date as a young man, and I believe the insecurity stemming from that has shaped his persona.

Now he can buy all the dates he wants.

I though it was jocular without being told....


More than likely true, but in todays gotcha world, the MSM is looking for anything to get people to watch them, and also to push their favorites while defeating Goliath....

People just eventually give in and say, that’s just Trump being Trump.


Trump is somewhat akin to Archie Bunker. Archie would throw out some zingers, people would cringe, and then smile, thinking wow that was a good one.

His corporate bankruptcies were Chapter 11 and a restructuring. Hedge funds managers were involved. Carly did nothing to help HP other than get fired. Multitudes of companies have done the same.

Carly is a great speaker and maybe that is what worries me as that was the only thing that got the Kenyan elected.

And you expect to achieve all of this by making fun of some womans appearance instead of attacking her position on the issues? Wow!

Do you want to be judged based on your appearance?

I don't agree nor disagree with Trump but I will point out that we are judged by our looks every day.

Good looking people beat out less nice looking candidates for jobs all the time. I believe it's a proven fact. (Actual paid studies). Well dressed compared to sloppy, "pants down" dressers win every time. We don't even have to mention the dating world.

I'm not saying it should matter, I'm saying it already does does matter.
