He says it's not what he said, then he says it's what he says.
It's creepy.
"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.
"Im talking about persona. Im not talking about looks," he said on Fox. TPM
Good enough for me! I’m still with him.
The reported was invited to cover Trump.
...With his blue tie loosened and slung over his shoulder, Trump sits back to digest his meal and provide a running byplay to the news. Onscreen, theyve cut away to a spot with Scott Walker, the creaky-robot governor of Wisconsin. Praised by the anchor for his slow but steady style, Walker is about to respond when Trump chimes in, Yeah, hes slow, all right! Thats what we got already: slowwww.
His staffers at the conference table howl and hoot; their man, though, is just getting warm.
When the anchor throws to Carly Fiorina for her reaction to Trumps momentum, Trumps expression sours in schoolboy disgust as the camera bores in on Fiorina. 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, shes a woman, and Im not sposedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?

Me too. The whole thing us a non-issue. The Bushbots still don’t get it.
Bushbots? Surely you jest.
Watch it.
He’s talking fast and not making any sense.
He makes a good point about all the people who make fun of his hair/look. Amazing double standard.
What, “face” means personality right?
Stay classy Donald.
Face Gate. :)
What do you think about the way Scott Walker didn’t have an opinion on the Muslim immigrants — because he wasn’t yet president — and then all of a sudden, he did?
Do you think his sudden change of heart was justified? Why or why not?
Do you think his change of heart — some are calling it a “flip-flop” — was justified?
I recall the passes given to the vicious comments made by DemoncRATS about female Republicans/Conservatives (e.g., Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann); and then I see the media getting its collective knickers in a twist over this.
Please.
She never held office and never accomplished anything. Her sole argument is vote for me because of my sex. Didn’t we learn anything from the LAST and PRESENT affirmative action president???? We had some good female candidates - Palin and Bachmann come to mind and I supported them. Fiorina is another RINO hack likeBudh, Kasich and Christie. Nothing more.
His mouth is going to sink him when he is personalizing the insults, especially towards women. Stick to the issues DT.
No. Bushbots - the people trying to push another damn RINO Bush on us.
Actually, I think your posts are kind of creepy.
Fiorina is a bore, a middle manager type who probably rose through the organization by tattling on her fellow employees. She’s straight out of the movie “Nine To Five.”
At one point, Luntz bolted from the room with the focus group to make sure the handful of reporters observing on the other side of the glass understood how big of a deal this was. My legs are shaking, he admitted.
This is absolutely for real, Luntz said of the intense and loyal support for Trump. And he is not going away. And he is as strong as every survey shows. All those people who think hes going to implode have not sat and talked to these voters the way that they should have.
The Donald is coming! The Donald is coming! Trump may be 'impossible to take down'
I tell you it was the scariest thing Ive ever seen! My legs are still shaking!
See post #12.
MONDAY: Scott Walker: Were ignoring the core problem
The Wisconsin governor and GOP candidate told reporters on Monday that talking about Syrian refugees addresses the symptoms and now that the core problem is.
The core problem is the Obama-Clinton doctrine... that has empowered ISIS to take the territory they have in Iraq and continue to have the pretense they have in Syria, he said from the campaign trail in New Hampshire. We need to push back, and we need a president [that on] Day One is going to send a clear message by lifting the political restrictions on our military personnel and at the same time by terminating the Iran deal, which is a bad deal... Ceding power to Iran and that region only empowered ISIS and other forms of radical Islamic terrorism.

WEDNESDAY: Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker on Wednesday said he opposes the U.S. opening its borders to take in more refugees from Syria.
No, we shouldnt be taking on any more Syrian refugees right now, he said at the Governors Small Business Summit in Eau Claire, Wis., according to Wisconsin Public Radio.
In the last year, America has received almost 70,000 refugees, of which nearly 2,000 are from Syria, the 2016 GOP presidential candidate said. Weve spent something like $4 billion in humanitarian relief in terms of helping the situation in Syria.
So, were doing more than any country in the world and its got to be clear that the problem that has to be addressed is not the refugee issue thats a symptom, the real problem is this administration fails to deal with taking on ISIS, added Walker.
July 2015: WALKER: The greatest threat to future generations is radical Islamic terrorism, Walker said. And we need to do something about that.
Today we can start by lifting the political restrictions we put on the military personnel we already have in Iraq today, so they can actually start helping our Kurd and Sunni allies reclaim the territory taken by ISIS.
We need to make sure that we acknowledge that Israel is an ally, and start treating Israel like an ally in the United States, he said.
May 2015: WALKER: I get awfully frustrated when I hear the president draws a line in the sand and allows people to cross it, Walker said. A president who called, just last year, [Islamic State] the JV squad, who called Yemen a success story, who still calls today Iran a place we can do business with. Well, Ive got news for you, Mr. President. Once and for all, we need a commander in chief that calls it what it is and that is, radical Islamic terrorism is a threat to us all, and we need to act on it.
Carly lost me when she said that Kim Davis should do her job or resign. Disgusting. But she is a very smart, courageous woman who deserves to be in the debate.
