Unfortunately many women and religious people don't understand that and they would rather stay home rather than vote for a guy who doesn't meet their standards of conduct.
Still, I wish Trump would tone some of his antics down. What works in New York City doesn't necessarily play well in Topeka, KS. I think it speaks to his relative inexperience in politics. Most presidential candidates have extensive political experience and know how to mask their rough edges while projecting a smooth and polished image to the voters.
Have you ever heard Trump enunciate anything articulately, succinctly, or to the point where anyone can understand?
***
Most times he speaks.
Don’t blame us if you’re too slow to understand.
Since last Thursday it's clear that he's holding Ohio hostage, or trying to, for Milt Romley's benefit visa vis a brokered convention.
He might or might not succeed; looks like Dondi's SOL in his home state.
Why don’t you give him credit for his strategy? We now all think of Rubio as little Marco. This wasn’t poor self control, this was a successful attack on an absolutely abysmal candidate that the media & the GOPe would have rammed down our throat until Trump destroyed him.
Trump’s in this to win. He’s going to have to get nasty and aggressive or he’ll be toast. I thought it would be hopeless, that we would never get the ruling class out of power. Trump has broken the whole secret society open like kicking an anthill and all the ants are attacking. If we hold firm and he continues to tell truth to power we will see a better day in America.
Giving in to the lies spread as bait to draw us off course and to the discomfort we feel at confrontation is exactly what the enemy wants(and I do see the Globalists/Uniparty as the enemy). Be strong for our country and our children.
He did not boast. Rubio brought it up, implying that his hands were small and that meant his penius was small. He was setting the record straight! LOL!
“Time for Trump to act like a grown up” is the Republican establishment line par excellence.
It means time to concede to the amnesty agenda and tell us how illegal and criminal aliens from South of the border simply want to do the jobs Americans won’t do.
Spoken as a true tumpbot who is on the trumptrain precisely because Donald seems to be able to get away with acting as he does not only in public, but to the whole world.
As some of us predicted, for many voters when it gets down to just them in the voting booth, a realization sinks in that flipping everyone the bird is not what America really needs.
“So walk already. Trump isn’t going to be any clearer what he will do.” With last Saturdays Primaries showing 15 to 25% leads where Cruz won and only 2 to 3% leads where Trump won, it has begun. That brings panic to Campaign Trump and all he is capable of is Double Down with the “Walter” pouty face, and 5th grade antics trying to hold onto slipping away embarrassed supporters.
Trump will not garner enough delegates to lock down the nomination before the Convention and that will be the end of the Trump road.
so why can he not articulate ANY of it?
You are very ill-informed. He hates the “individual mandate” in 0bunghole care. His recently posted position paper about health cares very specifically says that NO ONE will have to buy insurance IF THEY DON’T WANT TO.
I don’t have time to copy his whole paper here but I’m sure it has been.
He has NOT said to expedite the “good” illegals, either. They have to go through the same process.
Why not try reading his position papers? All spelled out nice and clear.
What I noticed in the “debates” recently is that Rubio and Cruz will not let Trump speak. He gets about 5 words out and then they (Rubio, Cruz) start screaming at him. So he never gets a chance to actually answer a question. Both of them are playing dirty desperate politics and it is turning off a lot of voters as you rightly point out. The Marxist globalist uniparty is going all out to stop Trump, who, on the important issues this election is the most conservative candidate running.
He wants to punish business for producing off shore, except of course for his own clothing lines since ‘you can’t make clothing in the US any more’.
Since manufacturing has vacated the US you don’t think it’s difficult to find factories that will produce? DH needed really good work boots for fire and logging work - tried two over 150 bucks, used to be made in the US, no more of course - lasted a couple years - the only ones made in the US cost upward of $400 - had to get them.
If the factories are gone, they’re GONE.
I think the problem is I don't have a Trump/English-English/Trump dictionary like you seem to.
I think a lot of the Trump haters seriously have NO idea what his positions are and get their “info” about Trump from media and whatever Cruz and others say about him.
Sad to see human intelligence wasted.
You are being disingenuous, if you have actually read his website and compared it to other candidates position statements, you cannot make that statement and expect to be believed. The only reason people get away with saying that Trump switches his positions is that the media does an excellent job of creatively clipping portions of his statements, lying about what he says and burying the corrections etc. There are books on his positions and reading those it is clear that the man is honest, straightforward and consistent. The serious interviews he did in the late “80s are still on You-tube and his positions on Trade, the Military and many other issues are precisely the same.
His positions on Abortion and Planned Parenthood have evolved openly and he was on record as being against abortion by 2000. His statements from 1999-2011 are internally consistent as he was changed by life circumstances to believe that each life is precious and should be protected and that the dogma about “Woman’s Right to Choose” is not the compelling argument he once thought it was. Trump has stated repeatedly that whether or not PP has done good work on other woman’s health issues if they do abortions they should be defunded. Life News has showcased the position statement.
I agree. Thoroughly. Yet I’m unconvinced this man has what it takes.
Actually, I don’t think any of them do.
Perilous times.
Here's a clue: anyone acceptable to us will be unacceptable to the GOPee. Kick Trump loose, and nothing important will have changed.
SSDD.
Obviously this is projection on your part. You haven’t read any of his books or policy statements. The debates are gotcha moments. No one with a real plan could give details in 3 minutes while being interrupted and heckled. That’s why he has a website with his policy.
I often think of the saying its the thief that cries thief, it helps me understand the people around me. Perhaps that is operative in your comment. You are attempting to mislead for your own ends, to turn a patriot into a clown.
Sadly, I'm starting to think it will come to that. Trump is not the perfect solution, but IMO anyone who thinks there's a better one doesn't understand the problem.
I'm tempted to say more on this point but off to work I go... IMO this is why Trump lost Oklahoma, and I assume Kansas and Nebraska.
And your better choice for a ship to sail through the storm is???
