That guy on CNN last night "What are you going to say to the Pope when the Pope wags his finger in your face and starts goin' on about how capitalism is greed and that capitalism has caused more problems in the world for impoverished nations and blah blah blah blah blah blah on and on and on."
Trump "I'll say ISIS wants to cut your head off."
I laughed my ass off. It's not so much that I agree with everything Trump says, but he knows how to handle what is thrown at him.
I suspect he has always been surrounded by yes-men.
I suspect, you suspect wrongly quite often.
There are two things the define a successful leader:
1) Vision of what the leader wants to achieve 2) Surrounding himself by the best possible people to achieve that vision. And those best possible people tell you the truth at all times, not what they think you want to hear.
We have all been bitching about the status qoe - now here comes someone that looks like he is actually going to do something about it. He scares the hell out of both the dems and republicans, calls them like he sees them and is willing to stick his neck out and try to fix some of the Washington bs we are all sick and tired of. Not sure if I'll vote for him in the end, but I sure like the way he makes the career politicians squirm.

If another 'career politician' ends up w/ the R nomination then I am done with all of this [bleep].[only possible exception is Cruz]

Yup. People bitch about the same old same old from the GOP, then there is someone who offers what they supposedly have been waiting for and it turns out they are comfortable with the way things are then the possibility of change.
I'm in for the Donald. The upsides.... He will never give Billary KKKlinton a cabinet position so I will likely not see much if any more about her. He will not bow to Middle Eastern rag noggins and will likely tell them to STFU instead of any kind of apology. He is the only candidate likely to tell China to get the faq outta here. He will build a big wall around the southern border so only the highly skilled yardmen can get through and not the ones that wanna take a break every 2 hours. He is the only candidate that would likely support TERM LIMITS for the maggots in DC because even if he loses he has a job to go back to unlike the career (leeches) politicians.
The downsides... I will have to look at that thing growing on his head. He might try to .INC the United States and turn it into Trumplandia. He very could be the third anti-christ. If he bankrupts the US, we could turn into a third world country.
When challenged, he attacks. It isn't being thin skinned, it is taking the initiative. The best defense is a good offense. He never retreats. When threatened, he immediately attacks and wrong foots the attacker. It works brilliantly. Trump never goes in the defensive. There are never days of headlines with the media making fun of Trump and him looking like an idiot. Think of Rick Perry last time around. No, Trump attacks and instead the headlines become about what a dick Trump is and so on and so forth. But he never looks weak or inept.
Have you ever seen a bad movie where someone has like some kind of magical power to defeat his enemies with a word, a waive, or some other sort of very simply gesture? You know, he goes through the whole movie saying the world, waiving the wand, or whatever as he confidently and later, a little arrogantly watches his enemies fall instantly. Then, in every movie there is that moment in the plot when he uses it on one of his enemies and it has no effect. The enemy laughs, and says something like, "Your puny weapon can't hurt me." And of course, you see the anger, the fear, and the confusion in the guy's face as he suddenly realizes he is in trouble because the weapon he had, is useless against this new enemy.
That is the way the press is. All this political correctness BS they always used against everyone else, just bounces off of Trump. You can see the frustration in that dick weasel's face and hear it in his voice as he whines, "Don't you know that term is offensive to people?"
One of the best things about Trump is,..he's gonna bring those high top caps back in style.
I'm going to have to get me one of his caps. I'll have to carry any time I wear it to keep the chitbird liberals from bouncing a pop bottle offa my head,..but that's okay.
Trump is one of those irritating dudes who is effortlessly good at whatever he does.
He used to have a show on the Golf Channel. He has a funky looking swing that to steal a line from Fehrety when speaking of Jim Furyk, "...looks like an octopus falling out of a tree." So, anyway, he has this awful looking swing, but then he powers through the ball and really knocks the crap out of it. He is a damned good golfer.
Trump supporters are people who are tired of trying to choose their candidate from a group of career politicians who have already been purchased,...and are forbidden from taken the stand on the issues that the people want because the people who own them don't want it.
^ except cruz
except cruz sounds like a politician when he talks, so folks tune him out rather quickly.
