ABC Roundtable...all seem to agree, including Bill Krystal, that the terror attack hurts Donald Trump’s chances in the primary. Voters will now pick a more “serious” candidate with government experience, ready to be CIC.
Yes....I notice how Donald Trump is dropping drastically in all the polls!!! NOT!!! What a bunch of idiots....and, they actually believe someone is heeding what they say!!! Folks....that’s what too much ego and self-adoration does to ya!!!
That's highly debatable isn't it. Immigration is a large part of it and Trump seems damn serious about that. Nor would he worry about political correctness or taunts of "meanie" when he attacks radical islamists.
And who would be the more hawkish candidate ? Lindsey Graham ?
That balloon has no bouyancy
Yeah, right. The voters are angry about Trump who said the day before the attacks in Paris that we should "bomb the sh#t out of ISIS." Americans want a man of action and resolve. Paris helped Trump not hurt him. Americans want some blunt talk and not policy wonks who rationalize inaction because the situation is so complex. How can a ragtag third world militia hold Iraq's second largest city, Mosul, for 17 months? Forget all these coalitions. Everyone knows that only the US can do the job. It is in our national interest to do so.
Actually Trump is probably going to benefit since voters see him as the “toughest” candidate. He is saying what most voters are thinking. “why are we dancing around here, just finish these people off now.”
ISIS is another example of the corrupt, incompetent nature of the DC Political/Media/Business machine. DC cannot even get it act together to exterminate terror group that carved a minor state-let in the ME.
Most obvious examples of things we should be doing.
How is ISIS still funding its activities? Pretty tough to keep a terrorist army together when you cannot buy guns, bullets and food for your soldiers. Why is any activity allowed between the terrorist areas and the rest of the world?
