Title: Thoughts on the Donald?
Post by: AnnaKiki on July 31, 2015, 01:00:01 pm
Is he just the biggest show off who thinks he's the best? I think all his money has gone to his head! I hope he gets blown out of the race!

Yes, he's loud.  Yes, he's proud.  The Donald's demeanor is nothing new, he's always been like that.  What I like about him is that he's BLUNT and TO THE POINT (no matter whether that point hurts or not).  There's no other candidate (next to Cruz) who's got the corleones Trump does, and he doesn't "bend over" like the rest of the candidates, either.  Yes, I'm lovin' it, ha!

Hey, BlackSheepNY, I'm totally on track with you. I love that Trump is not afraid to bring up issues that should be talked about. He's a little brutal, but if we're all about free speech, then he's one of the things that happen when we have free speech. He certainly promotes dialogue.

BTW, I think you meant "cojones", not "corleones". The Corleones were the Mafia family in the Godfather. Cojones is the word we can't write on Fusion Cash with slang because they will censor it even though they are just small orbs positioned strategically on a male body. Or even a sphere designed for play. Let's try it. *bleep*. See, I told you. Ha, ha. I typed the word b-a-l-l-s and it's totally censored. So much for the context of a sentence determining the meaning of a particular word.

Like most even mildly alert observers of American politics I have been intrigued by the Donald Trump phenomenon. In some sense it is like a car accident—you just can’t look away no matter how hard you try. Pundits from the right and left have excoriated him with such apocalyptic language that their warnings have guaranteed the elevation of his profile among a politically jaded public.

If you're reading these posts about the Donald, you might like to know what Bobby Jindal said:
 
WASHINGTON — Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, trying to draw attention to his struggling presidential campaign, said Thursday that Donald Trump is “dangerous,” “a narcissist,” “an egomaniac,” “unserious” and a “gift” to the Democrats.

Speaking at the National Press Club in Washington D.C., Jindal also took aim at his rival over the New York businessman’s claim that the Bible is his favorite book.

“When asked, he couldn’t even name a specific or a single Bible verse that was important to him, that had an impact on him,”
Jindal said. “Well, do you know why? It’s clear Donald Trump has never read the Bible. The reason we know he’s never read the Bible? He’s not in the Bible.”

Whether you agree with him or not, that's a good one!

Title: Re: Thoughts on the Donald?
Post by: girlygirl1008 on September 12, 2015, 12:18:11 pm
I think that it's sad Trump is getting so much support as a political candidate because while I agree it's important to have someone talking about the political issues, I think that that type of attitude shouldn't be associated with elected office: if Trump can't negotiate with others and listen to other's views he's missing the two major cornerstones of a public official in any democracy.

Personally I think there are other places for that type of speech. Like political comedy. John Steward and Stephen Colbert can make the same points and influence without needing to run for office. Then again I think Trump takes himself too seriously to ever sit back and laugh, another quality I personally look for in a leader.

Donald Trump is the best chance we have to finally turn this country around and make it work again! Just remember, we don't elect a KING that controls everything, but his experience gained by making the money he has can shut off some of the waste the politicians get away with every year. I am all for that!

I like the Donald Trump is blunt and to the point. He has no political experience and that is good because he doesn't sugar coat anything. But at the same time it's that same blunt and to the point style that makes him unfit for the job. I can't imagine that this is the way he'll be talking to the leaders of other countries. He has no problem insulting anyone who is in his way. Is this the way he's going to talk to our allies? Is this how he's going to act while visiting other nations?

There's things about him that I like and some that I don't like (I wish he wouldn't act like a sophomore running for President of the class and I wish he would watch what he says about some people.  It would be best if he would turn his tongue to Hillary etc.  He definitely is making the race much more interesting and many more people are watching the debates because of him.  He is way off on Russia in Syria since they are only bombing our allies not ISIS and bombing homes.

he is right about a lot of things; we need to expose the injustices in our country.

Not an Obama supporter. Not a Democrat. Trump is just an awful candidate and it's comical that people support him. His run is nothing more than self promotion, which will lead to more money in his pocket. That's his shtick, and it works for him. Just doesn't translate to leading a country.

On his website the option to “Donate” is right there front and center. He’s asking for money and has held fundraising events as well. He raised nearly $4 million in the third quarter in private donations, while contributing $100 thousand himself. Yet, he’s still spinning himself as being self-financed and people are eating up this charade.

That's the law. You'll find that same basic verbiage if you try to donate to any candidate. Not unique to Trump.

That site is a product of his campaign committee setting it up. Just like any candidate. And just like any other candidate, it is used for soliciting donations.

We did a little over 2000 yrs ago by a KING,NOT some poor babe in a manger in a cow stall!!

2. What is the only solution to mankind’s problems?
2 What is the solution? God’s Kingdom, for which Jesus taught his followers to pray: “Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth.” (Matthew 6:9, 10) God’s heavenly Kingdom is described at 2 Peter 3:13 as the “new heavens,” which is to rule over the “new earth,” that is, righteous human society. So important is God’s heavenly Kingdom that Jesus made it the focus of his preaching. (Matthew 4:17) He showed the place that it should have in our lives, urging: “Keep on, then, seeking first the kingdom and his righteousness.”—Matthew 6:33.

From the same article: “Not everything that is stupid or offensive is unconstitutional,” he said."

From http://www.politifact.com/georgia/article/2015/dec/11/donald-trump-proposes-banning-muslims-coming-us-di/

"Carter acted against Iranian nationals, not an entire religion.'

"The difference is that Iranians were citizens of, and owed allegiance to, a country that was acting against the United States," said Kermit Roosevelt, a law professor at the University of Pennsylvania. "The class of ‘all Muslims’ has no similar connection to ISIS or terrorists. That makes the analogy seriously flawed."

"Carter was ratcheting up diplomatic pressure in a fairly traditional process of crisis management."

"Carter’s actions are best understood in the context of a traditional conflict with a nation-state, something that doesn’t exist in the environment now shaping Trump’s proposal."

"Carter acted after the Iranian government accepted and defended the action by militants who stormed our embassy in Tehran and took our diplomats hostage," said David Martin, a University of Virginia law professor who has written extensively about immigration law. "It was a classic, major, state-to-state confrontation, based on a flagrant violation of diplomatic immunity. Carter invoked a host of counter-measures long recognized as appropriate under international law."

Trump is the Southern Strategy come to life, and blatant with it.

Some things worry me about Donald Trump.  He seems to jump right in without thinking things through sometimes but he'd surely be better than what we have.  I don't agree on something with each of the candidates except maybe Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina.  I like Chris Christie except for his stupid stand on global warming.  Climate is always changing.

Donald Trump definitely speaks before he thinks. But I will not lie. He is saying the things that many candidates (and other Americans) are probably thinking. This is not to say that I concur with a lot of what he says (because many of his contentions are pretty impractical). I cannot help but think that his campaign for president is a publicity stunt. He will always be known as the guy on The Celebrity Apprentice that states emphatically "You're Fired!"

He's all talk. I really loved Rand Paul, but he is outside the establishment and isn't a publicity clown... I see most people as liars. I don't think Bernie Sanders is a liar, but frankly he is too out there and doesn't seem to understand math.

I'm moderately conservative and I like Marco Rubio, but he flip-flops. I don't know what to think. Ben Carson is brutally honest and I respect that, but I think he's more fitting for a cabinet position myself...

Sometimes I think we are all not in on the joke yet and this is all a big reality show program he has instigated. I feel as though we are going to get punk'd sometime soon.

I'm not a fan, but I do think he's amusing. The quotation on the Daily Cash Email seems to fit:
"The smaller the mind, the greater the conceit."
-- Aesop


I don't find him amusing. i find him pretty nasty and not fit for public office. The Aesop quote fits him very well.  I am so surprised that he has such a large support group but then again, they are mostly angry at the way this administration has been changing our country. 

I can only hope that those supporters wake up soon or we will be in a world of trouble. He has always been a Democratic party supporter and always donated to that party along with being friends with Hillary and Bill and Michael Bloomberg. He has given to the Republican party but in smaller amounts.

I don't believe he ever became a Republican. I still think he's a shill for the Democratic party, to keep the serious candidates from becoming a nominee. He acts like he's looking for a way to bow out of the Republican party and run independently with his threats but he knows he can't because of his supporters.

The way the news media acts sometimes, one might think he is already president. Very strange. ::)
The news media is there for one purpose only, to sell news so it attracts more advertisiers. That is where the MONEY is and it is all about money, not serving you.

The news media is in the pocket of politicians. They pick the one they like and run with it. How many times has Trump gotten free "advertising"  from the media through his phone calls to the shows or interviews?  At least once a day, but usually every single station has a news story every day.

I've gotten to the point where I change the channel because I'm sick of hearing about him. He's an arrogant, ignorant, egotistical, blowhard. Never liked him before and don't like him now. 

The way he attacks the other candidates is despicable. Yet, if they say anything or PROVE anything he said or did was wrong, he blows his stack and calls them stupid, dumb, full of hate, or a dope.  He can't stand the truth.

He has turned the debates into a circus. The only way to learn anything about the other candidates is to go to their websites and read their solutions, read their biographies on neutral sites (like Biography.com or bio.dom)

One I use is www/ontheissues.org. It has all the issues and links to their past and present issues.

Sorry, that's enough of my vent on the Trumpster except to say I hope people wake up soon! LOL

Maybe if he's elected that will push more people to the radical left? That's the only advantage I can see from him being elected.

I think he believes he can legitimately run the country because he appears to view running an entire country the same as running one of his ridiculous corporate businesses. He seriously needs a swift kick in the *bleep* and a punch to the mouth for some of the crap that he talks about.

He is the laughing stock of all times. He has no shame, scruples or morals! He forgets that he's representing his family and they have to be very ashamed of him. How could one elect a man that has no principles and no filters to be President knowingly?!

Trump was already worth over $100 million before he ever inherited a dime from his parents. He's now worth Billions. As for his schooling, the majority of students at Trump's high school had parents born outside of the US. It's widely known for its diversity.

Not a fan of Trump for president, but let's at least be close to accurate.

Yes, he's loud.  Yes, he's proud.  The Donald's demeanor is nothing new, he's always been like that.  What I like about him is that he's BLUNT and TO THE POINT (no matter whether that point hurts or not).  There's no other candidate (next to Cruz) who's got the corleones Trump does, and he doesn't "bend over" like the rest of the candidates, either.  Yes, I'm lovin' it, ha!

Hey, BlackSheepNY, I'm totally on track with you. I love that Trump is not afraid to bring up issues that should be talked about. He's a little brutal, but if we're all about free speech, then he's one of the things that happen when we have free speech. He certainly promotes dialogue.

BTW, I think you meant "cojones", not "corleones". The Corleones were the Mafia family in the Godfather. Cojones is the word we can't write on Fusion Cash with slang because they will censor it even though they are just small orbs positioned strategically on a male body. Or even a sphere designed for play. Let's try it. *bleep*. See, I told you. Ha, ha. I typed the word b-a-l-l-s and it's totally censored. So much for the context of a sentence determining the meaning of a particular word.


Trump doesn't promote "dialog." He promotes hate. He attacks anyone and everyone that disagrees with him. If he can't take them down through speech, he's quick to sue. Done it many, many times.

I can't stand him. He reminds me of my ex...an egotistical maniac who does nothing but brag about himself, how great he is, and how much everyone loves him.  He's also a pathological liar, too. On top of that, he reads the newspaper to find out what's going on in politics and believes the Trashional Enquirer is a good news source. Frankly, I think he gave those nasty articles about Cruz and his father to the CEO, Pecker (real surname people!), himself since they are good friends.

 Haven't we had enough of liars between Obama and Hillary?

That's his shtick, and it works for him. Just doesn't translate to leading a country.

He made an interesting comment at the end of the debate tonight, (paraphrased) You don't need to go to my website, I am not asking for any money. I am financing my campaign myself.

So with all the special interest groups funding everyone else that's running, who really will be running this government if Donald doesn't win?

Oh, didn't you hear the latest? He's adding SuperPAC funding to his repertoire. So that's another issue he has backtracked on.

Then yesterday, he called some of the reporters sleazeballs. Nothing like slitting his own throat by attacking the reporters just because they asked about the money collected for the veterans.  Yet, when he threw that rally, he stated he collected $6 million then made sure to publicly announce that amount at least once a week. Now, because nothing was mentioned about the $1 million he was supposed donated, he attacked....yet, he didn't donate that $1 million until last week AFTER the reporter asked about both the donations and his donation.

It shows his true colors. If he doesn't like something said about him, he'll attack. He's a user. He used the media e.v.e.r.y. s.i.n.g.l.e d.a.y  for his own agenda, but now he states they are against him and they insulted him.  He's such a cry baby and a liar! He doesn't talk about the issues and how he will solve them. He attacks others in his "press" conferences.

He has really opened a can of worms now. The media will definitely be getting back at him for yesterday's remarks. PLUS, he called the judge in his Trump U. case a MEXICAN. What does he have against Mexicans? Anyway, this judge was BORN IN East Chicago, Indiana. Didn't know Indiana was part of Mexico, did you?
