Media Claims Trump's Problems Are Self-Made

[Mac1958]

Yet you have no problem with repeating false Trump quotes. I can point out a bunch of them. All you keep saying is he said bad stuff but you never say what they are.

False quotes?

Don't you know that a quote alone doesn't tell the whole story? Judging a book by its cover is what you're doing.

Yes, we judge candidates, for sure. I don't think he has either the capacity or the temperament for the office, and the fact that he's an embarrassment doesn't help.

No one EVER said Trump never made these really human, endearing comments!
But of course you hold Trump to a different standard from Obama don't you?
Your comment Trump made "silly comments"... is totally appropriate to Obama!
I can't agree with Trump about Iraq/GWB because I think he doesn't have all the facts.
But for the most part I love a guy like Trump who paid politicians for favors! Wow that's great now HE wants to be president.
YOU tell me why Obama wanted to be President?
Trump simply doesn't need the money. So why is he running?
Simple protection of his productivity and his progeny. Trump sees America being destroyed by the guy you hold up as a model!
I too want to preserve the USA and agree with Trump. He like me is over 70 years old so why would he take on this task except he wants to protect his family and fortune!
I have no problem with that!
Obama by his WORDS and his actions despises America, capitalism, our military.
Trump just the opposite!
So if Trump says silly things... go for it Donald! We need simple silly statements to get the attention of people who have been so lied to by the likes of Obama and yes
unlike you a total party worshipper, I like Donald disappointed with GOP establishment as they said they were going to dismantle Obamacare. didn't happen.
The GOP establishment hates Trump because the status quo with Donald doesn't fly!

So I totally agree with you about Trump's statements! Go for it! I love them because obviously like you with Obama's gross exaggerations you didn't care!

Problem with most of his statements is they aren't packaged and written by experts who focus grouped them for weeks, and delivered with the skill of a snake oil salesman. And too often, they're embarrassing to some because they're true, but also politically incorrect.

Trump is an embarrassment regardless of comparisons and deflections. All on his own.

I thought Trump was the perfect man for the right, even though that is not what they thought in 2011..

 

[bendog]

Women control who gets in the White House. If anyone is to blame for 8 years of Obama, it's women. Women will be to blame if Hillary gets in as well.

... and those lying Democrats say there's a Republican "War on Women", where the fuck would they ever get that idea?

If Trump is elected, they'll have to make sandwiches for us again!

[mudwhistle]

So you are telling me it is OK for this pompous butt Obama to say about his nomination:
"This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal."

AND that's not silly???

Straw man. I didn't say anything about Obama, and I don't enable deflection.
.

Do you KNOW what the meme "straw man argument" MEANS?? Or does it just sound "smart"?
Here definition:
straw man is a common form of argument and is an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not advanced by that opponent. Straw man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Now where in MY countering your "non-stop silliness" of Trump is there "straw man"???
You gave examples of Trump "non stop silliness" as an argument against Trump.
MY refutation is the greater exaggeration and silliness of OBAMA especially when he hires people who agree with him and say it was the Stupidity on YOUR part that
passed Obamacare. Or Obama's silly statement.. This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal."
These are NOT straw man fallacy examples! Just as Obama said this silly statement:
“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun. Because from what I understand, folks in Philly like a good brawl.
Tell me that is not a Silly statement! Or that these Obama statements aren't just plain stupid and silly!
“I think I could probably do every job on the campaign better than the people I’ll hire to do it,”
“It’s hard to give up control when that’s all I’ve known.”
“I think I’m a better speechwriter than my speechwriters,” I know more about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors.
And I’ll tell you right now that I’m gonna think I’m a better political director than my political director.”

Your Straw Man was "so you are telling me it is OK for this pompous butt Obama..."

You're putting words in my mouth and then shooting them down. That's not what I said. That's a Straw Man.

That's not what I said. I didn't mention Obama at all.
.

Yet you have no problem with believing false Trump quotes. I can point out a bunch of them. All you keep saying is he said bad stuff but you never say what they are.

What Trump has said is well documented

The voters are capable of determining whether they object or not

Yep. Well documented, and commented on a zillion times so that what he's saying is changed appropriately.

 

[blackhawk]

Trump is his own worst enemy.

OP believes Trump isnt responsible for how people see him. How can you seriously argue with that?

He believes its some sort of cabal all working secretly to make him look silly. Yeah, thats it!

What a pompous fool you are! "Articulateness"....
Explain this "articulateness"?
President Obama was speaking at the National Prayer Breakfast and was telling about a Navy Corpsman who assisted the suffering people of Haiti. But as his head bobbed back and forth between his two teleprompters, he read the word "Corpsman" and pronounced it "Corpse Man" twice.

 

[Valerie]

OP fails to grasp that Mr Trump is responsible for his own words which prompted historic levels of repulsion.

The media is trying to tell us who we can vote for. Trump isn't part of the club, so early on, they set out to stop him.

[hazlnut]

This is a lie. The media is trying to tell us who we can vote for. Trump isn't part of the club, so early on, they set out to stop him. One establishment candidate after another fell, and Trump kept winning despite millions in negative advertisement. Now, all they want is a contested convention so they can award the nomination to an insider.

Wisconsin was always going to be one of the hardest states for Trump to win. Scott Walker put his machine behind Cruz to make that happen and the result is predictable. But this does not indicate a shift in the election like the media claims. It is just the way it was planned. The trick all along was to make women turn on Trump. This was the goal from the very first debate. Accuse Trump of being a jerk toward women and the rest will be history.

Women control who gets in the White House. If anyone is to blame for 8 years of Obama, it's women. Women will be to blame if Hillary gets in as well.

Yes.

When Trump opened his mouth and spoke in front of the camera, those words coming out of his mouth were recorded and played back.

Edited or unedited, makes no difference.

The man is horribly laughably pathetically unsuited for the office of President.

 

[Valerie]

why does donald trump encourage violence and still expect rational people to support him?



Donald Trump’s ally Roger Stone threatened to reveal the hotel locations of delegates who steal the nomination from Trump at a contested convention.

“We’re going to have protests, demonstrations. We will disclose the hotels and the room numbers of those delegates who are directly involved in the steal,” Stone stated in a radio interview.

“If you’re from Pennsylvania, we’ll tell you who the culprits are,” Stone threatened. “We urge you to visit their hotel and find them. You have a right to discuss this, if you voted in the Pennsylvania primary, for example, and your votes are being disallowed.”
