Do we really want a President who acts so childlike?

You keep saying that word. I do not think you know what it means.

[manic4organic]

Haha. You win this thread! Well played, sir.

This is certainly worthy of a question often asked about Trump:

Do we really want a President who acts so childlike?"

If it's often asked about Trump, why are you still supporting him?

I don't think humor is "childlike", except to the humorless. My husband and I kid around and play around all the time. It's called fun.

To me, childlike is, oh...carrying on yelling twitter wars, and nursing grudges against TV talking heads.

[Balding_Eagle]

That’s a strange response.

What does it mean?

[CatherineofAragon]

"It’s the same question leveled at Trump hundreds of time.

You just aren’t able to answer it this time."

Hundreds of times against Trump?

Again, looks like the problem is with YOUR candidate. Yet here you are...

[FourPeas]

Endearing

[Balding_Eagle]

I only used it once, which is different than ‘keep using it’.

But, you have me curious, what does it mean to you?

And why does Rush use that same word to describe the current resident of the White House.

Could not get the link at ABC to load, but I did find this one on YouTube: GOP candidate Cruz acts out 'Princess Bride' scene

TC does a classic "The Princess Bride" scene with his take on Billy Crystal and Carol Kane

[To Hell With Poverty]

Oh don’t worry, I only saw an opportunity to use a great quote from the movie and went for it. ;)

[Balding_Eagle]

LOL!

yeah, you got me.

That is a great line.

[Balding_Eagle]

Yeah. it has been used hundreds of time with trump.

Speaking only for myself, I often laugh about it, don’t reply.

Occasionally I mock the poster.

Mostly I ignore it, as I am having WAY too much fun to care a wit, which is why I decided to have a laugh here myself.

Seems like some here could use a bit of the same.

[FourPeas]

Great chart. Thanks for posting it.

[erod]

[CatherineofAragon]

Yeah, I could see the lighthearted humor in your posts, LOL.

[Balding_Eagle]

Well, come on, be evenhanded about this, do you think the charges leveled at Trump were lighthearted?

I dare say that more than one came from you.

Know, but can’t (or won’t bother to ) prove.

I still laughed at them. Or maybe mocked you.

[wbarmy]

Where are the quotable movies these days; Princess Bride, Blazing Saddles, Search for the Holy Grail, Arsenic and Old Lace, Young Frankenstein, Terminator, raiders of the Lost Ark, etc? I do not see that kind of dialogue in recent movies.

[SaraJohnson]

He made me laugh. Thanks. : )

[MortMan]

It would have been netter played if the quote was correct.

“You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”

(Now, hopefully, I have remembered correctly, myself! LOL)

[To Hell With Poverty]

Yes, I think that’s it, thanks!
