Post of the day.
The fact that Trump couldn't help himself in his retaliatory comments should speak volumes about whether or not he's fit to hold the office of President. At the rate he's going I'd have to wonder how this is all impacting his business relationships. None of this can be good for his long-term business relationships and viability.
It's not what Trump said. It's how the liberal left (looking at you, RINOs) interpreted a single dangling word.
I ran the whole thing past my wife, who hasn't been keeping up with all this, and she never did make the connection, even when I read the exact quote to her three times. I finally had to give her the liberals' definition of the word, 'whatever', and she looked at me like I was nuts.
She's not even a Trump fan, but she thought it was a ridiculous stretch.
I disagree with the assertion that this paints Trump as unsuitable to hold the office of president. Look back through our history, and you'll see dozens of men who are still highly regarded, who were also known to be rough around the edges.
In my view, the perilous times we live in almost demand a leader like that. I don't care a whit about the salt in any real leader's language. I care about his ability to do what's right for the American people.
