Donald Trump On Carly Fiorina "I'm talking about persona. I'm not talking about look."

He says it's not what he said, then he says it's what he says.

It's creepy.

Video

"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. TPM

Who then, if not Trump? Cruz perhaps, but all the others, with the possible exception of Carson, are part of the GOPe machine.

Reasonable observation. I guess the point was that some in the press have taken a “how dare he” position, but could care less when any number of people make fun of his appearance. But, as you point out, I can’t think of any candidate who has done it.

True, but to the main point, the Jurassic media or establishment media reaction is not relevant. Neither is whether it's "fair" to Carly or not, or how Carly reacts. The main point is that this was a foolish unforced error by Trump. It was more the childish reaction of someone who was losing, not the reaction you expect from an adult who is way out front. It was an unforced error. It was a window into a petty soul, and not the first one to pop open.

Now Carly was wrong to take Megyn's side v Trump too, but in that case, the issue was not Trump, it was Carly and her judgment....which was her first real tone deaf moment of the entire thing.

Right now, it’s Trump versus Bush.

I like Cruz. Cruz, Trump or Carson are fine and either one could be the nominee. Save the vitriol for the Bush and Bush clones like Farina, and Kasich.

I would never accuse her of screwing her way to the top. I have been on FreeRepublic just as long as you. And I have not seen one single shred of evidence this woman has any qualification to be President, aside from the fact that Meghan Kelly thought she performed well against a tier of third rate second stringers. We are still suffering from one affirmative action president and certainly don’t deserve another. If she was so great, why did they can her? What has she accomplished aside from losing a race in California? SO STOP Being So supercilious. Trump is conservative enough, and even more than that, he has taken on the establishment GOP which is as complicit in the destruction of MY country as the racist bastard in the White House.

I don’t care what Carly looks like, but I do care that so many supposedly intelligent Freepers think that’s the issue, or whether it’s fair to Carly is the issue, or how Carly responds is the issue.

All of that is to miss the ENTIRE POINT.....which is Trumps judgment, pettiness and the unforced nature of this clear error.

Trump is just being New York stupid here. Fiorina would be perfect as his running mate.

That’s fine or the other way around. Just no more Bushes, no Kasiches, no Christies.

What would be the point and putting another lying double-crossing RINO in office. Trump is not bonkers. He is stable. He’s been saying the same things for thirty years. Check out his 1988 interview with Ophrah
