"CAVUTO:.....Donald,..you were critical of the Texas event for doing just that. What do you think about this one planned in New York?
TRUMP:I think it's very simple. Our country has a lot of problems. We have got problems at every different level, whether it's economic or war and money that we're spending that we're not getting anything.
We spend billions and billions of dollars fighting and even trillions of dollars fighting. We end up getting nothing out of it. And the last thing we need is an obnoxious blowhard like Geller to go out and start trouble,when there's no reason for it.
There's absolutely no--I'm a bigger believer in free speech than she is, believe me. And I think it's very,very important. And we can't allow people to get away with bad stuff,the kind of stuff they're doing,the beheadings. We have to be tough and we have to absolutely go in and wipe out the bad. But for her to go in--and I guess she makes money doing this. Something has to happen. What is she doing it for? This has nothing do with free speech. This is taunting. And all it does is cause trouble..........
CAVUTO:..she says..you went a little far...
GELLER:And as far as Mr. Trump goes, he sure flaps his tongue and uses free speech and wishes to silence others. There's a war going on.
CAVUTO:What did you think of that?
TRUMP:Well,there certainly is a war going on.And she should be a--she should be much more responsible because what she's doing is unnecessary. I will give you an example. Let her go out and talk about--she's using those show free speech. She's not using it for any other--and she's using it for her own purpose.
She's a--she's a person that is doing this for her own purpose..and she's doing a terrible thing for our country....

Trump is just Obama part II. A narcissism liberal liar who convinces people he is a messiah to damage our country.
You are correct, Trump is inconsistent and unreliable. Conservatives are trying to turn him into something that he is not, because he says all the right things on the border. All of a sudden he is defender of christians everywhere, and transformed just like Reagan. (laughable!)
Conservatives are desperate for a good fighter, and will latch onto anyone regardless of credibility and reliability. This is asking for trouble and betrayal later on.
That being said, your candidate Scott Walker has been a disappointment. I have lost a great deal of respect for him. I used to think he was unique in that he had a spine in him. He is looking more and more like a squish. His only claim to fame is the stand with the unions. He has been riding that horse, but all this time he has been wobbly and squishy on multiple issues.
...sad, as I thought he was a decent alternate candidate.
You have no idea what damages he has taken. This whole campaign is for a reality show he is doing. He has spent less than $2 million so far and he probably thinks that’s cheap for all the attention he’s gotten. He isn’t going to spend a serious amount of his own money. The fact that you would support a liberal known-liar and reject conservatives.
I respectfully disagree with you about Gov. Walker.
You may have another candidate that you prefer but Walker has fought hard against the left in Wisconsin (and their allies who flooded the state with activists and money, and the courts who went after him and his conservative allies) - and won, again and again and again.
There is no proof That Trump’s position on immigration is any different than Bush’s. He tells loud, buy he has no substance and no trustworthyness.
Is this a homework assignment?
Oh okay, so becoming public enemy number one of the liberal media-- accused of being a racist by everybody-- is going to actually help him in getting permits and business in cities dominated by Democrats.
Lol.
I’m really interested. Without knowing more, it’s hard to understand your attraction to Trump.
We have no idea a what his deals are. And if his actions get amnesty passed he could be seen as a hero.
The liberal media is eating this up.
Don’t be so easily fooled.
You two are too desperate to convince me.
The media loves Trump or it wouldn’t give him 10 times the attention of others. The opposite of love is indifference Trump is a reality show person so he thinks bad attention/ good attention is all good.
Step back and think about how the Left works.
Here’s a good example that’s current.
July 16, 2015:
“House Democrats are floating a legislative deal linking the thorny Confederate flag debate with expanded voting rights.
Republican leaders last week were forced to scrap a vote on an Interior Department spending bill — and suspend their appropriations schedule indefinitely — over a partisan disagreement about displaying the Confederate flag in national cemeteries.
Rep. James Clyburn (S.C.), the third-ranking House Democrat, said Thursday that Democratic leaders will drop their push to attach flag-related amendments to appropriations bills, freeing Republicans to pursue their spending agenda, if GOP leaders will agree to consider an update to the 1965 Voting Rights Act, a central part of which was gutted by the Supreme Court in 2013.
“I’m here to say to you that the members of the Congressional Black Caucus and the full Democratic Caucus are willing to sit down with the Speaker and work out a way for us to allow the proper display and utilization of ... the flag in certain instances if he would only sit down with us and work out an appropriate addressing of the amendments to the Voting Rights Act,” Clyburn said during a press briefing in the Capitol.
“We believe that there’s a proper place for all of us to honor our heritage, and nothing is more of a heritage to African-Americans than the right to vote.”
The Democrats have been pushing a VRA update unsuccessfully for two years. With their new strategy, they’re hoping the high-profile controversy surrounding the Confederate flag — which has only deepened since last month’s racially charged killing of nine parishioners at an historic black church in Charleston, S.C. — will give them leverage in that fight.................”
Whatever. Frog meet scorpion. Enjoy trusting a liberal.
Desperation?
Hardly. Trump is not going to win the GOP nomination, much less the Presidency. He’s just the flavor of the moment.
“There is no proof That Trump’s position on immigration is any different than Bush’s”
Right Nick, just because he says he wants to build a wall doesn’t prove he actually wants to build a wall. For that matter, just because you tell me you believe in God, or that your name is Nick, or that you really are a conservative doesn’t prove that those things are true either. And there’s no proof that Jeb is really an open borders amnesty RINO. I know he says he’s for amnesty, but that’s not proof. He’s lied before. So maybe he’ll really be the next Reagan.
We don’t have proof that any of the candidates believe what they say they believe. They’ve all changed their positions at one time or another. The only proof that will come will be if they get elected and actually do what they said they would do. That goes for every candidate.
Are you sure that Scott wants you to be posting HIT PIECES on other candidates - not very classy.
Yeah, that is kinda truly rich. But right now, the obnoxious blowhard is strumming our tune and has a $billion to throw at it. He will either make a mistake, show himself to be a poseur, or he’ll ride the populist wave into DC. Perhaps we should read his book to glean what his intentions are.
So if the guy was a conservative populist, would that be a positive resume?
No, we’re supposed to evaluate the political buttons that he pushes, whether they correspond to our pent-up frustrations or not. He hasn’t spent a lot of time in politics, so he’s a conservative (I’ve got lotsa FU money) populist.
My favorite theory is that he spent a few hundred thousand on the Clintons, and they tried to blackmail him for more. He doesn’t like that, so he pulled the trigger on them and they pulled the trigger on him. He was their friend but now, this is strictly business.
