I work with a lot of government officials.....What Trump said was a courtesy statement.

I can't wait to hear what he wrote to John Boehner in 2011.

Good point. Gingrich was merely agreeing with Pelosi on globull warming. Trump was ingratiating Pelosi expecting favorable treatment for his business interests. Which one was the bigger whore?

Could Trump be Closet Insane?

It's becoming increasingly clear that he is.

Trump: "I think its fine. I think its fine, but we should have made a better deal"...
"The concept of opening with Cuba is fine."

A Better Deal with Cuba, says Donald Trump

TRUMP: Vladimir Putin's praise is 'a great honor'

Business Insider ^ | December 17, 2015 | By Maxwell Tani

Republican US presidential front-runner Donald Trump is apparently "honored" that Russian President Vladimir Putin considers the real-estate magnate a "flamboyant" and "very talented" man.

"It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond," Trump said in a statement, according to Politico.

He continued: "I have always felt that Russia and the United States should be able to work well with each other towards defeating terrorism and restoring world peace, not to mention trade and all of the other benefits derived from mutual respect."

"I think that I would probably get along with him [Putin] very well."
--Donald Trump, CBS' Face The Nation, Oct 2015

________________________________________

"The US presidential hopeful Donald Trump has praised North Korea's despotic leader Kim Jong-un, saying the way he executes his political opponents shows "he's the boss".

-snip-

After coming to power when he was 28, Kim cemented his rule through a series of purges, including the execution of his uncle Jang Song Thaek.

"You've got to give him credit," Trump said. "How many young guys - he was like 26 or 25 when his father died - take over these tough generals, and all of a sudden - you know, it's pretty amazing when you think of it."

Pelosi is the best......example of how even the most obtuse, clueless human beings can be elected to the U.S. Congress.

From a highly respected conservative source,
Cliff Kincaid of Accuracy In Media (AIM)...

" Trump's relationship with Russia goes far back. In 1987, before the collapse of the Soviet Union, he was meeting with Soviet officials and negotiating the building of "luxury hotels" in Moscow and Leningrad .

A story at the time said Trump had met Soviet Ambassador Yuri Dubinin, who mentioned how much his daughter had admired the "opulent" Trump Tower in New York City. This led to an invitation to Trump to visit the USSR. The story said Dubinin wrote a letter to Trump, who hosted a meeting with Soviet officials in New York.

The invitation to Moscow was issued by Intourist, the giant Soviet in-country travel organization which operated all the hotels for foreigners in the Soviet Union.

Intourist was created in 1929 by Joseph Stalin and run by KGB officials. Intourist hotels were designed for wealthy foreigners, and virtually all the Intourist guides were KGB informers. In fact, one aspect of their jobs was the recruitment of foreigners. ..."

"...we are left thinking [whether] Trump understands the aggressive intentions of Vladimir Putin.

"...when Trump was asked about the nuclear balance with Russia during the most recent Republican presidential debate, he displayed ignorance of the decaying nature of the U.S. nuclear triad, which constitutes our ability to deter and survive a Russian nuclear first strike.

"Putin has just presided over a ceremony honoring the KGB's successor agencies, and the Russia Today (RT) propaganda channel has announced the grand opening of a "cultural center" dedicated to mass murderer Joseph Stalin.

It looks like Putin has outmaneuvered Obama and Trump. It is an opening for Trump's opponents, especially Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Marco Rubio (R-FL). But do they have the courage to "follow the money" and hold Trump accountable for doing business with a criminal regime that threatens the survival of the United States? At the end of this money trail, they may find an explanation of why Trump is so reluctant to hold Putin responsible for his crimes.

Follow Trump's Money to Moscow

CNN’s Wolf Blitzer asked whether he identified more as a Democrat or as a Republican.

Well, you’d be shocked if I said that in many cases I probably identify more as a Democrat, Trump said. And it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans.

Things that happened since 2015 literally on the campaign trail don’t matter either - like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRQgAEqLUmQ&index=2&list=PLJcbhHQDR9da0H3-Qs-7WEEj6tam9vlh3

FDR was a Republican?

If Trump is why not FDR? Did Trump vote for Obama once or twice?

Trump has more crossed wires inside his head than a 1960’s switchboard.

Gingrich was a politician, not a businessman. Apple and oranges.

Trump makes crony capitalism cool again.

So funny. If Trump wins, FR will partially to blame for allowing his operatives to promote him and lie for him.
