Trump celebrates victory at any cost, even winning by whining
msn ^ | 4/5/2016 | Jonah Goldberg

Posted on 04/05/2016 8:55:53 PM PDT by Hoodat

"I can only say this: My whole life has been about winning. My whole life," Donald Trump told The Washington Post's Bob Woodward and Robert Costa in a free-ranging interview over the weekend. "My life has been about victories. I've won a lot. I win a lot. I win - when I do something, I win. And even in sports, I always won. I was always a good athlete. And I always won. In golf, I've won many club championships. Many, many club championships. And I have people that can play golf great, but they can't win under pressure. So I've always won."

Let's put aside Trump’s myriad failures in life: Trump steaks, Trump University, Trump casinos, a Trump magazine, Trump airlines, etc. It's no surprise Trump talked a lot about winning because he has never stopped talking about winning. On the stump, he says things such as, "We will have so much winning if I get elected that you may get bored with winning. Believe me." He even defends his constant whining as a kind of brilliant strategy for winning: "I keep whining and whining until I win."

That bit is funny, given that his other favorite concept is strength, which is not normally associated with whining. As far as I can tell, he talks about the need for strength a hundred times more than he ever talks about, say, liberty or the Constitution (in the roughly 18,000-word transcript of his Post interview, these phrases appear exactly zero times).

So that means about 75% of Republicans are not voting for Cruz. :-)

Well, it is. The guy is a bigger scumbag than Trump. So, at least in this case, Trump wins (as usual).

It has to do with Trump’s character - the single most important aspect of a leader.

You see you are one of those irredeemable idiots that explains why Trump says he loves “the least educated.” It appears you cannot get a coherent thought out of your mind because its either your head up your own butt. Or, the next time Trump gets a colonoscope, they may find your brains up his butt.

Yes trump has character. Cruz doesn’t. You are correct. The only way Cruz wins this is by out right going against the voters. Trump has 2 million more. Good luck getting them to the polls in November if Cruz takes it by not getting 1273.

I take it English grammar is not your strong suit and why Trump says he loves “the least educated.”

“false tabloid trash on Cruz”
If it is true, Cruz’s reputation as a paragon of Christian virtue is wrecked.
(Unless you don’t have a problem with a guy beating a Bible on Sunday while chasing tail the rest of the week.)

If it is false, he would sue for defamation of character.

Well guess what? All Ted has done about it is sputter.

How can you support a whore-hound like Ted Cruz and call yourself a conservative?

The other side of the “not enough wealth coin”...”not enough power”. I honestly see too many shared traits with obama. Me, me, i, i.
