Thoughts on the Donald?

[linderlizzie]

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!

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.

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."

He is an *bleep* with money! Not the first and definitely not the last!

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!

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.

Hahaha!!  Yes, I know about "cojones," but being me I meant exactly what I said.  Let's face it, the "Corleones" had some ba**s, LMAO!  See how that fits perfectly?    It's good to hear others feel the same way about Trump, too.  I understand his "NY blunt" because I'm a native New Yorker and I'm the same way.  Refreshing to say the least!

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?

He is a joke, We as American people are not taking the voting rights seriously anymore. Everything is like a reality show not a life and death situation or personal choice anymore. It is a shame.

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.

The media is just using him to distract us.

[paynesponies]

He can not be any worse than Rick Scott in Florida. Some who knows how to create jobs and make money, is good up to a point,. of course checks and balances should be in place in the prez office.

AnnaKiki, just be nice, remember it is only politics....

[gsdoss]

He has every one talking more.

Trump is pulling off a great troll job and it is hilarious. What is scary though, is that people are legitimately supporting him as a candidate. Remind me of the support Palin was getting, just make you scratch your head.

[mardukblood2009]

He might be ok but who knows. He will probably be like the rest of them.
