Do you want to know what Donald Trump is really like?

Back in Febuary of 2016 there was a Repuplican debate. The moderator was calling out the candidates' names at the start of the debate. When Ben Carson's name was called, he didn't hear it. So he just stood there in the wings. Cruz, Christie, and Bush, they all just walked passed Carson. But Trump understood what had happened, and he stood there right by Carson. That is the mark of a man!

Hey, no worship here, so I guess you must have hurt your own feelings.

It's Cruzers that refuse to come down from your idol worship of the "principled turd, oops...conservative" who is backed by the same group of Bush/Romney/GOPe he claims to oppose.

I can't help it if they are all such infantile blind fools.

Hey, I thought his help in getting the Marine incarcerated in Mexico out was good. Tammeressie or something like that.

A man who thinks it's ok to use the women's restroom.

Point well taken. I'm pro-Trump, but he REALLY botched that issue. This restroom thing is just more PC aggression, and it was a perfect opportunity for Trump to land some heavy punches. Instead, he just folded. Yeah, I'm disappointed about that.

Turd Cruz.

I like it.

Most excellent.

We can make t shirts for the convention.

All Hail King Trumpy. King Trumpy the Magnificent. King Trumpy the hero of Trumpsters and Transgenders everywhere. :)

[Conservative Gato]

I think there are many who would chose King Trumpy over God. Certainly they would chose King Trumpy over a constitutional republic.....

Where the heck are you getting your information from as none of that is true if you've taken the time to see both Cruz and Trump vetted here.

He didn’t fold. It is what he believes. He didn’t fold to political pressure... he slipped and said what he really thinks.

[dragnet2]

I think there are many who would chose King Trumpy over God.

I think you're motivated to cause a diversion away from this positive story and turn it into a punch fest.

[Lakeshark]

He never said that, it's the Cruzer spin, even worse than Media Matters. Just listen to the original interview, he never came out for transgenders like the Cruzers are saying.

Such BS. Lying like their turd of a candidate.

[P-Marlowe]

I heard it. He said “people should be allowed to choose which restroom they want to use.” It was LGBTrumps voice. Maybe it was an impersonator.

[Lakeshark]

Like I said, clearly infantile and blind fools those Cruzers.

The supporters are just like the original turd they worship.

[Strac6]

Although I am a Trump supporter, I would respectfully submit that we are going to need a lot more than that to capture the Swing and Dem votes we need to win in November.

[P-Marlowe]

Yeah, I'm disappointed about that.

I am resigned to the fact that Trump is going to be the nominee.

I am also cognizant of the fact that he is going to make Mitt Romney seem like a "severe conservative."

Do you enjoy lying for Ted? Go to the 16:56 mark and start, then come back and apologize. But you won’t: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Em5o7udaDig

The whole premis to this thread is a joke. The Mark of a Man... What Donald Trump is really like. Okay... he owned a modeling agency. He had an affair with one of his models who is 20 or so years younger than him. While he was married and with a family to his second wife. After a while he divorced the 2nd wife and then later married the model/employee he had the affair with.

That's the mark of a real man.... oh yeah.... That's the mark of King Trumpy....

[P-Marlowe]

I am not supporting Ted. I am resigned to the fact that Trump is going to be the nominee. He’s a chameleon.

[G Larry]

In one day he backtracked on Abortion, Immigration, Taxes, and Transgender bathrooms.

Now it’s announced that he’s transitioning to a National Campaign, meaning moving further left.

Proving he’s the self-serving opportunist we always knew he was.

[Leaning Right]

He didn’t fold. It is what he believes.

These are certainly odd times. I'm very pro-Trump, but I still think there's a 20% chance that Trump is some sort of fraud.

But the country is in peril. So I'm willing to take that chance, and bet on Trump. It's sort of like being low on chips, and deciding to go all-in with pocket jacks.

“Don’t forget when he jumped out of his Limo and saved a guy who was being beaten by another guy with a baseball bat. “

Also another time he landed an out of control Lear Jet saving all 277 passengers and crew from a certain death.
