So you know his life, his family, his moods, his being?
See, I see him as a successful businessman who is also a multi millionaire/billionaire. A man who has many successful children who worked for their success given their upbringing. A man who took what he was given by this father and worked to make it even more successful and raised his kids to do the same. He didn’t acquire his wealth on the government teat. A man who says what he says and means it no matter who it offends and who owes no one anything. I sorta like that about him.
That’s what I know about him. He’s not a politician. He’s someone who has had to work with politicians and unions and government regulations in order to succeed. He sure ain’t perfect but I don’t expect perfection. I expect someone who loves this country as much as I do and has the means to do something about that.
Again, I like him. Way more than I liked any other candidate other than Reagan. I sorta like Rubio and I have a soft spot for Santorum. Santorum has no shot so he’s out.
Bush and Hillary shouldn’t even be running and it’s awful that they are. They are on par with the Kennedy family.
“So you know his life, his family, his moods, his being?”
When I say “Trump is just not a likable man. He is childish, petty, amoral and downright mean. He seems to be a very miserable man”, I say this solely on observation of the man. He does come off nasty the way insults people, calls names and carries on public feuds. This I believe is why he is at 60% unfavorable.
I see no similarities between Trump and Reagan. Although I was only 9 when Reagan ran in 1980, but it was that election when I started paying attention to politics and learning about the Presidents. In 1980 Reagan was calm, warm, articulate and friendly. He won over a lot of doubters with the way he carried himself in that election and successfully made the case for himself and the case against Jimmy Carter and he won big.
There is no doubt about Donald Trumps success in life. Everyone knows that. But if he wants to be President he needs to grow up and stop acting like a celebrity and more like leader. He doesn’t instill in me any confidence that he will be a serious leader with the way he behaves. Basically I don’t feel he has the temperament nor the maturity to be President.
Although I support Cruz, I do believe, barring a major incident, that Trump will trounce through the primaries and most likely be the nominee.
I don’t see Hillary being indicted as the Clintons always “get away with it” so expect her to be nominated.
If it is Clinton vs Trump it will a race between highly unlikable people and anything can happen. It will probably be a very a close race that comes down to VA, OH, FL and CO which Trump will have to win all to be elected.
