Donald Trump took shots at several of his fellow Republican presidential candidates in a Rolling Stone profile published on Wednesday, but it’s his comments about Carly Fiorina’s physical appearance that are attracting the most attention....
“Look at that face!” he cries. “Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?!” The laughter grows halting and faint behind him. “I mean, she’s a woman, and I’m not s’posedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?”
Asked what she believes Trump meant by the comment about her face, Fiorina said “I have no idea.”
“Honestly, Megyn, I’m not going to spend a single cycle wondering what Donald Trump means. But maybe, just maybe, I’m getting under his skin a little bit because I am climbing in the polls.”
Fiorina was far from the only GOP contender that Trump mocked in the Rolling Stone article.
Moments before his comment about Fiorina, Trump and his aides appeared to joke about Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s mental acuity.....

“The attack on Carly FioRINO is justified since she’s an evil abortionist and a vile statist.”
In her 2010 California Senate race, Carly was pro-life with exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother. She was endorsed as “Pro Life” by Sarah Palin.
Carly’s has a stronger public Pro-Life record than Trump, who was publicly pro-abortion in the past, and supported continued funding of Planned Parenthood until yesterday.
As for being a statist, I do not know Carly’s positions, but I do know Trump supports the SCOTUS Kelo v. New London decision, and has sought the use of the state’s guns to seize other’s private property for his use.
Walter E. Williams argued right of an individual to own property is the first and most important individual right.
Trump was once a handsome man, but today Carly is physically more appealing than he is, IMO.
Doesn’t mean that craven Scott Walker is a better choice for president than he was yesterday, but I wish Trump would stop this sort of thing. He needs to show he “cherishes” women he doesn’t find attractive by cutting this stuff out.
Just listened to Trump on FOX this morning. He does not deny he said it. That said, he mentioned Carly is always jabbing at him constantly. He sees her the same as anyone else. Punch gets counterpunch.
I am not going to let Carly’s face be the reason for a loss. This issue is not important.
The truth is people make fun of Trump’s looks all the time. He takes it in stride.
I don’t like Carly. She is well spoken, almost like she sits in front of a mirror to be pitch perfect. She is too measured and rehearsed. She fails to come off as human becsuse she has a haughty, authoritarian, know it all type demeanor.
With regard to Trump's support ... the Lunktzhead is on record ... ‘Nothing Disqualifies Trump’ ...

“During a Thursday morning interview on “Fox and Friends,” Trump was asked if he did in fact make the comments quoted in Rolling Stone.
The real estate mogul first noted that “the pictures in the magazine were magnificent” and that “overall, it was probably a pretty good story.”
He then said, “Probably I did say something like that about Carly,” adding later that he said it “in a jocular manner.” He also said it wasn’t about her appearance.
“I’m talking about persona. I’m not talking about looks,” he said on Fox.”
This isn’t going to elevate Walker. He has the persona of a limp dishrag.
He should stay in State politics longer to marinate.
And as other FReepers have pointed out, she destroyed Lucent, damn near destroyed Hewlett Packard, and got her golden parachute handed to her and shown her way to the door.
Someone should tell her that with that nose she should NEVER look straight at the camera. Always talk to someone just a few degrees off when the camera is in. She can look lovely at an angle but that nose just turns into a horse straight on.
Like I said, you choose to get your news from the MSM on him. YOu don’t bother to read about him, read what he’s written etc. The exact same thing was done with Reagan at about this time in his election. The media thought the man was inept and a buffoon.
Trump is the mirror image of us. It’s hard to swallow, but he is. We’ve had almost 8 years of someone who is a total clueless coward. The other candidates, Cruz, Walker, Carson etc are nice people. But we don’t need nice right now. This country is in big trouble, big trouble....but you don’t see that...
MSM and Hollywood CONSTANTLY attack Donald’s hair.
Apparently, Donald cannot have fun with other peoples looks.
Donald should not leave Carly’s nitpicking jabs unanswered
Carli is very very strongly pro life...
“Trump is the mirror image of us. It’s hard to swallow, but he is...”
Speak for yourself.
So this is you?

I’ve seen and heard Fiorina up close and personal several times. Physically, she is a very attractive person. But there is also, to me, a chilling coldness about Fiorina that is almost frightening. An attractive Hillary, if such a thing were possible, like she could say something just the opposite in 10 minutes and not blink.
Just an impression.
She then ended up on McCain’s doorstep. One of her biggest(literally) fans is Megan McPiggy. LOL
Shame Trump didn’t comment on her looks.
“Just an impression.”
An accurate impression, I think. She reminds me of every evil H.R. Director I’ve worked for. Too smooth. Too measured. Nothing behind the eyes.
what an idiotic premise, obviously done by a sycophantic non thinking Kardashian worshipper.
no, but close to a very good point....he got his support by refreshingly bold attacks on the GOP e, the media, and PC in general. Childish fart jokes are not.
Fiorina might just also remind Trump of “every evil H.R. Director” he’s run into.
“It’s always personal insults with this guy.”
If he keeps his position on illegal immigration as hes already articulated it - he the best looking pig in the pen, and I’m going to vote for him.
I don’t care who he insults. I do find it funny how he does shake the foundations of polite political society that so many here seem to cling to.
Anything is fair game if you’re in politics. What I like about Trump is that he’s not waiting to say this crap behind closed doors like everyone else.
Why can’t we make fun of Hillary’s cankles, Christie’s fat (whatever), Biden’s plugs, Trump’s hair, Carly’s face, Lindsay Graham’s effeminate speech, Perry’s mental acuity, Walker’s anti-charisma?
Yeah, if Trump were in polite company he’d be cast as brash and ungentlemanly. But he’s not in polite company. This is politics. What are you complaining about exactly?
