Donald Trump may be running for president, but that doesn't mean he's suddenly going to start being politically correct.
Speaking to a large crowd of supporters during a rally in Tuscon, Arizona, on Saturday, Trump said that both his wife Melania Trump and his eldest daughter Ivanka Trump "begged" him to start acting more presidential but he "doesn't want to be."
Despite the large turnout for his Tuscon event, the rally was met with disruptions from protesters. The new wave of anti-Trump protesters has increased over the past few weeks, culminating in the former reality star canceling a rally in Chicago, citing safety issues. In fact, earlier in the day, at a rally near Phoenix, protesters briefly shut down a road to the event, reportedly stopping traffic for an hour.
Meanwhile, Trump likely has other things on his mind. The current GOP front-runner is eyeing two big primary contests on Tuesday Arizona, which has 85 delegates, and Utah, which has 37. Trump currently leads the pack of nominees with a total of 678 delegates (he needs 1,237 to secure the nomination) with Sen. Ted Cruz in second place with 423 delegates. On the personal side, Ivanka is currently expecting her third child any day now.

I would submit that this is true of every pubbie candidate.
Our candidate will need full blown conservative and Republican support. Trump wont have it.
Again, I could say that of every candidate, whether active fin the race or retired from the field. The problem that exists on our side of the fence is that far too many of us demand more of our champions that any of them can deliver and then turn our backs when we need to close ranks.
No what I am saying is Trump knows how to act depending on the circumstance. Common sense buddy!
He doesn’t want to, or he can’t?
In a small way, you could say that.
But we’ve never had a candidate like Trump.
For all his magnetism in attracting a certain group of supporters, his negatives drive a larger group of voters away.
I have promised to vote Trump if it comes to that but a lot of people won’t.
Too many people won’t.
He is not the one chosen by Mormon.
We’ve done so well electing people who act presidential, act senatorial, and act congressional. All I see them acting like are liars and thieves. They tell us what they think we want to hear & take our tax money for their own benefit.
I’ll go with something different this time.

ROTFLOL!!
Trump’s my choice, but I wish he’d stop with the schoolyard name stuff. No Lyin’ Ted. No Little Marco. Stop questioning Romney’s religion. Stop questioning Cruz’s citizenship. That being said, if it comes down to a choice between someone who calls people names but will secure the border and halt Muslim immigration versus someone who’s polite but won’t do anything on those issues, I’ll take the name caller.
exactly, ‘civilty’ has got us 19 trillion in debt and almost 100 million under-employed in this country
Cruz didn't get full blow conservative and republican support.
Blown
He should keep doing what he’s doing. He came into a field of 17, many of whom were presidential in demeanor, and kicked them to the curb by fighting back hard. When you are going up almost single-handedly against a crooked government, two corrupt parties, a controlled and dishonest media, a hostile UN, Soros-sponsored leftist animals, millions of illegals, Islamists, and a large part of the electorate that doesn’t want its gravy train derailed, it doesn’t pay to be meek and mild.
I guess I can see why he married her...
Let Trump be Trump!
It’ll be okay.
Inconvenient facts for altura, who I personally believe is libbylu incognito as they are never on the same thread ;-)
Trump’s appeal is being himself, end of story.
Cruz needs Beck and company to come in and rage about white horses and prophecy - weird.
I love it when one word....out of a whole big story....is in quotes.
Eric and Baron are telling him to let ‘er rip.
