“Think Like A Champion” is my favorite Trump book, even more than “Art of the Deal.” Champion goes deep into his strategies and tactics.

He didn’t blame lack of sleep. After the rally he clarified in twitter he was referencing Jeb. At the beginning of the rally he said he was running on 1 hour of sleep. The statement happened closer to the end of the rally.

Maybe lack of sleep or misspoke or whatever. If any other candidate did that, the Trumpets would explode all over them.

Stoking, not stroking.

I am already totally sick (and being treated by a physician) of this whole topic but are you telling me that he was quoting or alluding to Jeb when he made the CC statement.

I don’t keep up with Trump on twitter, I would never get the dog walked.

You can find what you want. The author of the article that made this statement “news” walked the story back. See post 16 and 22.

Slip of the tongue?

definitely. He had just explained how he would get rid of Common Core before misspeaking during a rapid summary of several topics. Anti-Trump people surely jumped on it quickly. We conservatives hate it when Dems quote us out of context. Watch the video of the three minutes before his slip of the tongue.

One definition of a lie is "an attempt to deceive." Quoting only the one phrase fits that definition.

I really don’t want to talk about this anymore but I think it is wrong to say it is a ‘lie.’

Perhaps it can be explained away.

Perhaps the person who originally posted it knew he had clarified it and was wrong to post it.

But a lie? Don’t think so.

Okay, okay. I totally concede all that.

But the short clip was posted. Some of us saw it, and he said it.

So, I really don’t like to be accused of lying when I am only guilty of not investigating further.

That was a great Visa ad. Trump looks a lot younger in it.

Lot of people criticize Trump for having a big ego but I think it's a healthy to have a high sense of self-esteem. Aren't we tired of people also mired in self-pity, defeatism and low self-esteem?

Also, why do people need to apologize for their success?

Time for more positive "can-do" people.

To quote “some” Cruzers....”Every time we create a deception we make Jesus cry”. Please dont make Jesus cry. Dumbass.
Go Trump

Twitter fight repeats the video.

“We’re gonna keep” rebuttal and rebuttal of the rebuttal.

Yeah it was stupid and a little confusing. Redstate jumped the shark and posted an article and ended up having to walk it back after clarification of the statement. What didn’t help was that there are some people that hate Trump so much they pounce on anything that is negative on Trump and just keep posting it regardless of what is true or not.
