Donald Trump On Carly Fiorina "I'm talking about persona. I'm not talking about look."
You Tube ^ | September 10, 2015

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

It seems his insults always come with an explanation followed by a walk back. For a man prized for not being PC, he isn’t so brave as to say that what he said was what he meant. He’s a cad and a bully.

If he said it, it was juvenile.

I wish I could say I'm above it, but I'm not...how many times has Sarah Jessica Parker come onto a TV screen and I've thought, "Why the long face, Honey?" Which, coincidentally, we said about Lurch.

I think Fiorina is an acceptable looking ~~60 YO. I know from experience with the type I wouldn't want to spend the next four years with her as POTUS.

Ping to thread. The Donald speaks. That’s a good boy, Donald.

You are back in favor again.

No. Bushbots - the people trying to push another damn RINO Bush on us.

Shirley you jest? A true conservative can take issue with Trump, in fact plenty of them. It is not Trump or the gOpeee. That is a false Strawman.

If it is Jeb vs. Trump, I'll take Trump all day long. If it is Cruz vs. Trump, I'm with Cruz.

I won’t care what he said about Carly until the lib MSM apologizes for their appearance-based nasty criticisms of Kim Davis. Then maybe I’ll think about it. Never mind; I still won’t care.

Why is OK for them to make fun of a woman’s looks, but not OK for us? Sheesh.

Everyone should listen to his segment linked in the video above.

Trump is unmoored and lashing out.

I agree he should stop with the personal attacks and stick to policy matters. Maybe he needs time to mature as a candidate for president. Cruz needs to whisper in his ear.

It’s wrong for anyone, and our standards of decency are higher than theirs. They believe in abortion, too. Using your logic we would too.

I am not going to try to make excuses at all for his statement about Fiorina, since I never cared for her anyway, and I don’t think it is a big a story with the average person as it will be made out to be by you and your liberal friends in the media. It is again, a tempest in a teapot. And you, who lie in wait to pounce on Trump on every occasion, cannot act as if your objectivity is as pure as the driven snow.

I just noticed that Jindal, the little Hindu twerp, is due to attack Trump today, and will no doubt bring joy to your soul. Watchdog C.B.Forgotston here in Louisiana says that Jindal is not a liar, he is a damned liar. Sometime back, Fox news came out and interviewed him for about an hour. Fox now has the goods on Jindal, which they will bring out if he ever catches on, which he won’t.

Apoligize Donald. Do it now and really mean it. What a stupid and cruel thing to say. This may be his 47% moment. Remember Romney?

If he didn’t think he’d stepped in it why does he try to wiggle out of it before realizing he can’t so instead goes on a tirade about Fiorina?

It’s “William Bligh” paranoia.

Well to be honest, that’s probably as close as Donald ever gets to saying he’s sorry.

:D

He redeemed himself with ease. Nice. And..... he got the women back, before they even heard this story. He turned it into a tempest in a teapot.

He’s a narcissistic blowhard asswipe... likely with sociopathic tendencies...and a BIMBO for a wife

no no no...you see, you need to get your mind right. If you fail to fall down and worship the Donald on your knee pads - then you are by definition a Bush bot.....or a Rove plant....or a card carrying member of the RNC or Chamber of Commerce. Don’t you know that?

Seriously, you have a point. The oppo media is in full flex. Just wait until Jeb finishes seeking money from China. If that is a true story >> Onslaught. Throw in Botox Hollywood.

“It seems his insults always come with an explanation followed by a walk back.”

Always? Can you give just one more of the many examples of “an explanation followed by a walk back”? It should be easy.

Or do you just like the sound of your hyperbole?
