Trump is certainly a target for reasoned issues.
The sad thing is, what he addressed are real issues. If he hadn’t addressed those issues, I wonder if he would have been the focus of so much animosity.
What the result will be, is that those issues will largely go unaddressed, and he’ll be shouted down.
I couldn’t care less about the man, but I sure would love to see those issues expanded on.
That’s not going to happen if everyone jumps on the dump Trump band wagon.
We may not be doing ourselves any favors at all by shutting him up quickly.
So he’s a transpubbie!
“We may not be doing ourselves any favors at all by shutting him up quickly.”
I like the way he’s stirring the pot, Just don’t like the man.
He’ll be great in debates...and I’m a Cruz guy.
Thanx DoughtyOne
(btw ... is it doe tee or duff tee ?)
He wasn't addressing those issues, he was mocking them. He has no intention of "building a wall around Mexico and making them pay for it." It was political blackface.
For better or worse, I dont think he plans no being shut up quickly
“The sad thing is, what he addressed are real issues. If he hadn’t addressed those issues, I wonder if he would have been the focus of so much animosity.”
No, he would not be. The Donald clearly is some kind of a threat to the Establishment crowd. They don’t like his straight talk. They’re afraid he would actually make things happen.
So they mock him. And discuss his hair. Or past dealings with politicians. Or that he pointed out that he was rich. Anything to avoid the real issues that need to be taken care of now, or it will be too late.
If the Establishment succeeds in having Trump’s presidential run die without having acknowledged and debated the real issues of our time, then we all lose. Does anyone think that their owm guy will escape the Establishment’s wrath when they become a threat to Jeb’s political aspirations? Don’t forget the GOP’s anointed one is Jeb. One by one each one of them will get cut off at the knees.
This is it, there is no reversing our downward spiral if we don’t take meaningful action now. Whether it’s Trump and his people, or Cruz and his people, or Walker and his people - a team will need to be assembled to turn these United States around.
