I'm trying to get into this CNN Town Hall thing, but so far is sucks wet dog fur.
Until Donald Trump came on stage!!!!
What a contrast! I'm sorry, no offense to Kasich and Bush but Trump's responses matter...they are on the money.
They are answers no other candidate could give... to questions no other candidate would get.
Oh...CW you don't believe me?
They asked him a question about the music he likes... then he moved into Michael Jackson, and how he knew the man.. and the surgery that usurped him confidence that led to his demise etc. Who else could answer that?
So.....
Hey Y'all! Let's take a short 2 plus 2 break...Now that Trump is off the stage.
Tomorrow is fixin to be a big day. Our guy has added a couple extra stops and maybe even more by tomorrow.
We need full participation.
If you're not on the Family Trump Ping let me know, and if I missed you, don't be offended just say, Nikos1121 put me on pleeeeeeeeeese!
Three Live Events tomorrow, Friday, February 19, 2016 for GOP Presidential candidate Donald Trump.
This is the home stretch, and The Donald is not holding back. So let's support him as best we can.
He shows all of us here that he wants this more than anyone.
He shows us more that in America, all things start with our freedom to take hold of an idea...and then the idea takes hold of you.
BUT WHAT SEPARATES US FROM EACH OTHER AND THAT HIDDEN VOICE FROM WITHIN....
IS THAT SOME OF US TAKE ACTION ON THE IDEA, AND THE REST NEVER DO. AND WE SPEND THE REST OF OUR LIVES REGRETTING IT.
Hey..Fellow Americans. Here's a man who at the age of 70 took action on his idea to be president of the United States!!!!
If he can do that, then I can certainly at my age...or any age...commit to learn a second language, play guitar, audition for a play, be a nurse, a physical therapist or a doctor, etc etc etc.
You understand my thoughts?
Whether it's that desire to play the drums, write poetry, start a business or ask that girl out for a date, or eventually to ask her to marry you.
Taking action is the final stage of the idea.
And only in America are you allowed to take the idea and
either succeed or fail with it...and what's better than that?
We allow you to try again, if you fail.
Trump took action on his idea to run for the presidency, now it's out of his control, as it consumes him, more than any business deal of his lifetime.
But it's also consumed us. And we can't let that go either.
You want an example?
Ann Coulter has the desire to rent a car, drive out to Mount Rushmore, climb up on the monument and start clawing with her hands, The Donald's mug in the stone between Teddy and Abe...
Trump had no idea what he was getting into when he started this.
Maybe he was a little like Obama and Bernie Sanders who got into this thing against the sure thing, Hillary Clinton...just to TEST the water.
Only to find out that they were risked away by the waves and tides by true believers.. until they woke up one morning and looked in the mirror and said... "I can do this... I can win this."
Donald Trump is way past that stage. He knows he is going to win. He can smell and taste it, and he's ready to tackle anyone along the way who challenges him.
ALL OF US READING THIS CAN SMELL AND TASTE IT TOO.
So, what happened today? Out of the blue the latest gunslinger is the Pope, Himself.
He says Trump is NOT a Christian. Maybe, since he was in Mexico, he was coersed to say that. Maybe the media embellished it.
I see it as his diversion of reality.
Why?
When Muslims, who are not Christian, and not part of a true religion who cut Christian heads receive no condemnation from him, he chooses to target Trump.
He is more interested in Global Warming, than warming up Christians to fight evil.
Sorry, Pope, but you are a gutless wonder who looks like you want to appease and get along with the people who want to destroy you.
When we look at the courage of Jesus compared to the enemies we Christians face, you choose to confront Trump, not the true evil.
Therefore, it is you, who is not the true Christian in my eyes, as are the true Christians who in the Middle East choose to die than to renounce their faith.
I say, go back to South America...and let's bring in another Pope John Paul.
Trump, being on a mission and being a 100 gal of @ss whip when it comes to responding to an attack...attacks back respectfully about the reality of our world, and how the Muslims want to covet the ultimate victory...destroying the Vatican.
So, who is left to condemn the man. Who is left for Trump to go after....
No one, I guess but God himself? I think he better stop there.
But let's get back to the reality of the moment.
It's one thing to spend 5 hours at a rally, the main thing is to get out there and vote for the man.
I've voted early in Georgia this week, and I feel great.
I walked out of the voting hall kicking my feet in the air like Gene Kelly in Singin' in the Rain...
So, here's a preview....
The first rally is in Myrtle Beach, SC at the Myrtle Beach Sports Center. The event is scheduled to begin at 12:00 PM EST.
The second rally is in Pawley’s Island, SC at Pawley’s Plantation Golf & Country Club. The event is scheduled to begin at 3:00 PM EST.
The third rally is in Charleston, SC at the North Charleston Convention Center. The event is scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM EST. No doubt this one will be YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!!!
When you wake up tomorrow the thread ie meeting place will be there with the Trivia.
BTW, The daily trivia contest is not working as planned. no one seems interested.
I think it's because the first place prize, a new Lexus RX350 didn't turn anyone on. Because so far out of a possible 550pts to date these are top pt getters.
hoosiermama 65 pts
Onyx 63 points
exit82 30 pts
sockmonkey 20 pts.
sheikdetailfeather 18 pts
Amntn 16 pts
Cincinatus' Wife minus 65 pts
2ndDivisionVet minus 356 pts
Obviously no one gives a shyte about my trivia today.
That's ok we'll keep it up til November. The first prize is a dinner with Donald Trump after he wins.
So, take it seriously. lol
OOooo OOOOO.. I think Trump is coming. Okay gottogoluvyoubye
Quote:
“Mexico through Pope says we will never pay for the wall, Trump says, “tell him the wall is ten feet taller.”
That quote is just effin’ awesome. What America men USED to be.
I had the same reaction to tonight's town hall. Kasich and Jebbie bored me to tears. All their hackneyed cliches and their lame attempts to come across as "warm and fuzzy" and "sensitive and caring."
I even had to put the whole thing on mute and play a Beethoven symphony so I could get some manliness back.
Then Donald Trump strode onto the stage and from that moment on I was transfixed. He just owned the audience and projected such confidence in his ability to restore America as president. He spoke about hiring competent people to run the country instead of appointing political hacks. He spoke in depth about why it was such a mistake to go into Iraq. How Obamacare is a disaster and needs to be repealed. How we need to have a border and how we need to negotiate better terms with our trading partners. Then he humbled himself at the end by admitting he was a better father than husband and his biggest regret was two failed marriages.
This is the leader that this country needs. Not some wishy-washy, handwringing milquetoast like Jebbie Bush or John Kasich. Not some overly-ambitious do-anything-to-win lawyer-politician like Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz.
No other candidate in this race is as genuine and honest as Donald Trump.
My wife watched the Trunp Town Hall and is now a Trunpster!
Challenge for all conservative Trump fans...
How many adults can you personally think of that, in their own words, we’re very pro-choice.
But now that they’re running for office they’re suddenly pro-life.
Just stop and think about that for a few minutes.
And then ask yourself if your gullible.
“I even had to put the whole thing on mute and play a Beethoven symphony so I could get some manliness back.”
BWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!
You tried your insults once, now you do it a second time...
How about, if you just go away...
That's a double lungful of fresh air compared with the whining, backstabbing and navel lint inspections that's become par for the course around here lately. Please add me to the Family Trump Ping list pronto, Byron
Great post, thanks.
Best Presidential Primary evah!
Trump!
This is the first I’ve heard of the Trivia. Can you help me get started (where to find the question, how to submit answers, and all that stuff)?
Ok, here’s a comment you won’t get everyday. I am here in Abu Dhabi, UAE on a work assignment. It’s 9:30 am right now, I am in my room enjoying a rare day off and catching up on my FR reading. The cleaning guy comes in and since he and I chat when I see him, out of the blue he asks me if Trump or Clinton will be the next President? Curious, I ask him who he thinks will win and he says Clinton was supposed to but he thinks Trump may win it. Now this guy is a 20 something kid from Nepal that is working his butt of here to build a life back home. If he’s talking about Trump.......
Cheers!
thanks for sharing that. Cool story. What do you do if you don’t mind my asking? what’s it like over there? Is it one of the more strict countries?
Big rallies, big talk, insults, empty promises. Where have we seen this before?
0bama 2008/Trump 2016
I’m an ex USAF navigator who now does aerospace engineering. I usually work USAF projects but I’ve been here on and off since last July helping out on a couple of things. UAE is one of the most progressive Sharia Law countries, lots of Western influence but you still have to respect the culture. They allowed some churches to be built and I attend Mass weekly. No outward signs of Christianity are allowed though.
so you cant wear a cross on the street I guess
hope these american kids know what they are getting in sanders/hillary.
Panic is setting in among the supporters of other candidates, and it is just terrible to witness.
There has got to be internal/unreleased polling data that is circulating among the media. Following the Town Hall, Don Lemon had an "all star" lineup of commentators. Amanda Carpenter (friend of Cruz) and Ana Navarro (friend of Jeb and Rubio) as well as some ugly woman who I think runs an "anybody but Trump" PAC were the very definition of "hysterical women."
I mean they were in full-blown panic. Practically screaming and crying. It was embarrassing to watch. Very sad.
Don Lemon and David Gergen couldn't get them to calm down. They were completely irrational.
It reminded me of FR today.
“That’s American..That’s the Alamo...”
Trump is more of a San Jacinto guy. :-)
