Ha! Check this “little snowflake” out...

Her little feelings got hurt... Evidently, we’re all just soooo mean.
YOUR SECOND MISTAKE is assuming that’s the choice.
So you equate punching people in the nose with having a spine.
Things that make one say, “Hmmm...”
Well this looks like a situation where people on both sides will read it with just the right emPHAsis on the wrong sylLAble and we never can get a meeting of the minds.
Trump could simply be indulging in his normal hyperbole here. Anyone who doesn’t know about that now, I would ask, have you been sleeping under a proverbial rock? He might actually agree — if pressed — that the old way was wrong. From a worldly point of view (he’s not apparently beyond cultural Christian) we call it sublimation. For example: the person first thinks to punch you but chooses to rebuke you instead. It’s only when we get into gospel Christian that the whole logic is undermined. Jesus said to hate your brother in your heart is tantamount to murder. The choice goes directly to rebuke, not from punch to reject to rebuke.
Trump is worldly, and what this implies needs to be taken into account by gospel Christians. It would not make him an unviable president. Self control for any good reason, because something is wrong or because something else is right, is a good thing. But he isn’t going to be another Cruz. We may not have seen such frank worldliness in a long time. But I posit it’s better than phony gospel Christianity, because the former knows it could have somewhere better to go.
Trump didn’t punch anyone. He said he’d LIKE to. We have ALL felt that way.
He won't succumb easily and not as completely as, say, Rubio has that is for certain. That's why I can stomach the thought of voting for him. But make no mistake the “Art of the Deal” will be in full effect when he gets to Washington so don't be shocked when he fails on some of his promises.
Elect him knowing what you're getting, not the charactature he is giving you now, because that's not what he's going to be in Washington. It can't be, or else he will get nothing done and it will be a long 4 years indeed.
Content, of course, is needed for dealing.
Here’s where, in principle, Trump has opened a door, or set of doors.
Or to continue your analogy, Trump starts out as a do-it-yourself “Messiah.” But sooner or later a conductor steps in and resolves the differences the way he sees best to come to a consensus, and then the performance commences.
Trump will never be President.
Put yourself in Trumps shoes for one moment.
Trump is standing on the stage, a private event paid for by his campaign, looking out at his invited supporters many of whom stood hours on line to wait for a rally, then someone who is most obviously not a supporter starts punching other people around him.
I would want to punch someone starting a beef at my event, too.
The protestor area is OUTSIDE the event.
Well not til next January. :-)
Well not til next January. :-)
I don’t know if to laugh or cry after watching that.
I see this all the time because I have kids. Parents telling their children they are so good at something when in reality they suck big time. Seeing their kids fall only for the parent to run and get ice and a band aid when there is nothing wrong with them.
This is what happens when you shelter your kids too much and they have no idea about the real world.
Snowflake here needs to grow up because life is not fair and there are some bad as well good people out there.
Thank you for the video though as I will be showing that to quite a few people, including my teens,
Uh, since Reagan didn’t talk to me or anyone else at that moment since it was in the middle of a production of “Will Rogers’ Follies” I don’t see how your comment even makes sense. But that’s Cruz fanatics for you.
Scott Adams, prolific author, blogger, and creator of the massively popular comic strip Dilbert, has a different theory. He tells Reason TV's Zach Weissmueller that the media are being trolled by a skilled manipulator, or in Adams's parlance, a Master Wizard. So exquisite does Adams believe Trump's skills to be that he predicts The Donald will go on to win the presidency.

Laura Ingraham just played the entire clip. Trump lamented a time long ago when fisticuffs would have taken care of the protester. But now everyone is so afraid of the law and lawyers, no one does anything and the miserable people among us flourish like “green bay trees.”
He was right.
Which begs the question, what have conservatives conserved?
For most of us, I'd guess gold, guns, and ammo.
So you are Hillary supporters. Lovely.
Hey you can all vote for John McAfee. He’s running on the Libertarian ticket. Free LSD for everybody. :-)
