Donald Trump: I could ‘shoot somebody’ and still have support (audience laughing and clapping)
Washington Post ^

Posted on 01/23/2016 12:36:42 PM PST by springwater13

"They say I have the most loyal people - did you ever see that? - where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters," Trump said, illustrating his point by pulling his fingers into a gun shape. "Okay? It's like incredible."

The crowd laughed and clapped, and someone in the audience shouted out love for the candidate.

"We love you, too, man," Trump said.

Trump's comment came during a campaign rally Saturday at Dordt College in northwest Iowa. The 1,500-seat theater completely filled, hundreds more watched his speech from an overflow room.

Trumpbots = former Obama supporter that did not get rent and electric paid for

Wow! Cool of you to meet Mr. Trump! We had lunch in the Trump Grill back in August and he was eating at a table not far from us. No handlers, no one watching his back, just talking non stop to Maureen Dowd. Afterwards, he posed for selfies with all the tourists who had lined up to meet him. There was even a Texan there! I took a photo and have it somewhere on my phone. His busboys told us he was a great boss.

Anyway, love how he treated you.

How wonderful for you, too!
I love hearing that he’s a great boss. I’m certain he is.
He believes in the work ethic.

My daughter from the Cayman’s always stays in Trump Tower whenever she travels to NYC and during her last 2 visits she has ended up alone in the same elevator with him! To hear her tell it, they have engaged in wonderful conversations ...lol.

‘6 foot 4 Glenn Beck, man of honor, lets his wife get beat up by Occupy thugs.’

Rule Number One in chivalry — keep your wife and children out of harm’s way. How did he allow her to be so endangered to begin with? He hires security, has a security dog. Good grief!

And what did Ted Cruz going to the Southern border with Glenn Beck to pass out soccer balls and teddy bears to ILLEGALS tell us about

TC didn’t say he was going to shoot them. Please don’t turn a humanitarian gesture into making Cruz an open borders guy when you know he isn’t

I like a lot of what DT has to say, but yesterday was a misfire, pardon the pun.

Oh, spare me! If this had been DT, Cruz supporters would’ve had a field day with it and you know it!

New voters by definition these days must not have white skin. I guess Trump didn't get the GOPe memo.

The funny thing is Trump is bringing in new voters of all colors.

It so messes up the recent political calculus.

New white voters off set any increase in the hispanic vote

Blacks leaving the Democrat plantation removes a gender advantage.

Landslide of epic proportions is coming

Winning!

Trump’s next book should be: ‘The Art of the Wag’
He is outsmarting the MSM . . and I’m loving it.

Trump is A Queens New York street kid as I am. No matter how much great education and smarts we get as we travel through life....the language of the Queens, NYC streets stays with all of us. We are like a “Band of Brothers”. Why? Because, when you grow up among italians, Irish, Germans, Greeks, Blacks, Hispanics, Jews, Asians, etc, as we all did during the 40s,50s, & 60s...you forge together your cultures, so that you all get along...and, out comes the NYC street talk....which you love and cherish for your entire life. That is the language of honest, fair and decent people who learned to live together, who formed from many...the one.....the USA Republic!!! God bless Donald J. Trump and his plain, brash, honest way of speaking!!! GO DONALD TRUMP!!!
