This has essentially been the top political story on all the cable networks for two days now, and has even been blamed for why Trump canceled an appearance yesterday.
After staying silent, today Trump decided to respond.
On Twitter.
Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him? I don't think so!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 19, 2015
This is the first time in my life that I have caused controversy by NOT saying something.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 19, 2015
If someone made a nasty or controversial statement about me to the president, do you really think he would come to my rescue? No chance!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 19, 2015
If I would have challenged the man, the media would have accused me of interfering with that man's right of free speech. A no win situation!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 19, 2015
Wow! What a child.It should be noted that this is not a case where a politician was asked a question unrelated to their campaign, and then provided an unsatisfactory answer.
This man was echoing many of the same conspiracy theories that Trump himself was pushing three and four years ago.
This was a chance for Trump to demonstrate the maturity required by a Commander-in-Chief and "the Donald" failed miserably.
And this Twitter response just reinforces the fact that he responds to criticism like a middle school girl who just found out somebody is talking shit behind her back.
Trump abruptly canceled a scheduled appearance at a Heritage Foundation event this weekend because, according to a Trump spokesman, Trump "has a significant financial transaction" to attend to.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm. Is he declaring bankruptcy for the fifth time?
It's called a 'timeout'.
DeleteTrump's favorite Bible verse:
ReplyDelete"Am I my brother's keeper?"
But his answer would be "Not on your life," and he would mean it. What a lowlife scumbag is the GOP's "golden" boy, Donald Trump.
DeleteBeaglemom
Exactly what I meant, Beaglemom.
DeleteI think that's "orange boy"
DeleteI was waiting for "I know you are, but what am I" or "I'm rubber, you're glue......." And no one would have accused you of interfering with that morons free speech. No one did that to John McCain when he took the mike from that crazy woman in 2008. This is par for the course. I remember Speaker Boehner being asked about correcting false claims about the president by the base, and he said it wasn't his job.
ReplyDeleteThe nutjobs (and Trump) deliberately distort the right of Free Speech to mean that they can say anything and NOT be refuted. The man at Trump's town hall event in NH got to have his say. His spoke freely. But a contender for POTUS heard someone say that the current POTUS is not a citizen. That is not factual AND because it bears on enforcement of the Constitution, a serious contender for POTUS should have refuted it.
DeleteThe Muslim training camps part of the nutjob's tirade deserved at least some mention as well. "We're going to look into that" is not a respectable answer.
He could easily have said "It's probably too late to argue about Obama's credentials for the job, we need to worry about getting the right person for the next eight years." This would be correct while avoiding coming down in either camp.
DeleteAnd, if he wanted to zing a rival, he could have added, "By the way, Rafael Cruz over there was born in Canada."
That would also be correct.
Donald Duck wants it all.
ReplyDeleteHe wants to run for President, act like an uniformed ass, let the most outrageous racist, xenophobic and sexist crap get thrown out from those around him. Then he wants to claim as a person running for president--not the Apprentice---that he shouldn't have to comment on issues when he actually opened the forum for his supporters to ask questions.
The man is a joke. A very bad joke.
I also think he's running out of his own steam. He didn't like having to stand for 2 hrs 45 mins for the debate. It made him want his piddow and king size bed and down comforter. Wow. He'd be the kind of Prez who would puke on a foreign dignitary cuz he was exhausted and ate the wrong food. What a pussy.
DeleteGreat image there -- a frustrated Donald Duck stomping his feet and crying WA-WA-WA.
DeleteThe Donald is the product of the infantilization of Americans through a steady diet of false exceptionalism, their encouraged narcissism, television aimed at the lowest intelligence, rampant anti-intellectualism, religious brainwashing, fear of the Other, etc.
Any human that is so dependent on external validation will never really grow up.
Trump isn't acting kie an uninformed ass - he IS an uninformed ass.
DeleteBarbara Carlson, you said it all. Thank you!
DeleteTrump comes from a very successful business background. That is what he is knowledgeable of and comfortable.
DeleteI'm sure the political crud he's run into is something he never expected! It's also apparent he wasn't prepared to accomplish what he has with the Republican party - being number one by a large margin!
He hasn't had a political team working with him up to this point but I'll bet he's gathering one now AND very carefully selecting them.
He took the break to reassemble would be my guess!
"...AND very carefully selecting them."
DeleteAs long as they agree with him and double-down on it to boot.
"Wow! What a child."
ReplyDeleteExactly. He is behaving like a child because this is the behavior that made him the front runner. He is pandering to his supporters' maturity level.
Sarah was very public about her support for Donald when his train was roaring down the tracks and killing sacred GOP cows. Now? Nothing.
Sarah has abandoned Trump and is now clinging to Fiorina's skirt.
Yeah right.
DeleteEven the pee pond is waking up to the fact that they've been had. I wouldn't put anything past that calculating bitch, nor tRump. They are one and the same.
DeleteThat 5-minute meeting after the anti-Iran rally. That's all it took for Trump to flick Sarah off his shoulder. I noticed that she seemed quiet and dull the rest of her time in DC. She hasn't said a word about Trump since then.
Delete7:47 AM - Maybe she'll finally cop to her new grandchild-to-be at the Utah Pregnancy Crisis Center gala? Yeah, we'll wait for that also too. Bitch has become awfully silent, now hasn't she.
DeleteSilence from $carah is never awful, just welcome.
DeleteThat is one thing The Donald seems to have done correctly! He's obviously dumped! He's had her figured for quite awhile, I would suspect!
DeleteThe two of them are too much alike and literally would have fought like cats and dogs!
He also knew that Sarah would never have behaved herself in the second position which we all know to be true after watching her run in the second seat in the McCain campaign.
Looking at those tweets you can imagine him stewing just like Sarah does.
ReplyDeleteAnd like Sarah was, he's in over his head too. Not ready for prime time, either of them, but at least he's only embarrassing himself.
$arah/RAM can't even write their own Facebook screeds anymore. "The World According To Brancy." The stupid....it burns.
DeleteAs I said all along -- his was always a revenge campaign; he has stewed over the GOP's dismissal & taunting of him in the last election and for a few weeks lately could lord himself over them.
DeleteHe has never forgotten what Obama said to him at the media dinner years ago -- it made him look small. Trump may have laughed (sorta) but his wife's face said it all: Trump will never forget this; she looked scared.
He surrounds himself with sycophants and now, when some of them turn on him, the rest will follow, seeing weakness.
The Emperor has no clothes ...
Barbara, you are on a roll... and so right with your analysis.
DeleteHow come no one's commenting on how any kind of metal contraption wouldn't make it through a school metal detector, or how students have been expelled/suspended for far lesser things? How come no one's commenting on the FACT that a lot of schools have strict rules on things a student can bring?
ReplyDeleteThe media people writing these articles must not have kids.
The chief has apologized. And I guarantee race had no play. Now, had it been something that looked like a traditional clock, and Ahmed was arrested, THAT would be a reason to suspect racism/profiling. And Bristol herself "said" there are racist. These particular officials show no signs of racism.
Our media is disgusting for blowing shit up when all cops do is make everyone safe.
Horseshit!! Just admit you're a fucking bigot now and stfu!
DeleteOh, fuck off. Go yap away on a relevant post. You are an ignorant lying fool.
DeleteBullshit.
DeleteFuck off Brissy/Alicia/Branch et al...
DeleteName one school that forbids bringing a clock to school. The problem was over-reaction. Clearly it wasn't hooked to any sort of explosive, which might have been the first tip off. But maybe you want to go so far as to suggest it could have been a timing mechanism by remote. Okay, I'll buy that. Then school officials should have promptly arrested every student and school employee in possession of a cell phone, which have clocks and timers.
DeleteWhat is disgusting is continuing to contribute to BP's celebrity by mentioning her. And secondly, it is high time sensible people in this country call out extremist stupidity and constant over-reaction.
"All cops do is make everyone safe".

Is that you, VISITOR FROM UNITED STATES/WASILLA? Why didn't the Anchorage cops do their jobs when the Drunken/drugged Palin Bastard Breeding family crashed a birthday party and attacked guests and the host? Why didn't the Anchorage cops do their jobs when Willow Palin and her Colony Girls Gang broke into a neighbor's house, partied, and vandalized it? Why didn't the Anchorage cops do their jobs and arrest Track Menard for drugs years ago? Why didn't the Anchorage cops do their jobs when Todd Palin was Pimping in Anchorage? Go away Palinbot, you are stinking up the place.
How did the cops or school officials keep anyone safe if they didn't evacuate the building and call in the bomb squad to deal with what they thought was a bomb? They tossed it into a cop car and drove all over town, endangering the whole community if they really thought it was a bomb.
DeleteBTW not all schools have either metal detectors or statues of Bristols Ho vagina by the front door.
As for Bristol, she should concern herself with her own choices in life, like trying to track down Cletus the Fetus' baby daddy and the President of the Untied States will concern himself with who he invites to the White House for a meeting.
Fuck the fuck off if you can't even make a coherent argument.
Delete"And I guarantee race had no play. "
DeleteYour guarantee is meaningless. Writing "guarantee" without any basis for the truth is just childish.
Go back to the pee pond6:40 a.m. pondscum
DeleteNot to hard to debunk that guarantee when anti- Sharia crusadin' Barbie Beth Van Duyne is the mayor.
DeleteThe very first time racism was introduced into the incident was when Bristol Palin took to the pages of her blog and accused the president of causing "racial strife." I read the president's tweet. It did not mention race, religion, ethnicity, etc. It's focus was on encouraging Ahmed to keep his scientific curiosity. It also didn't mention anything about what the school officials or the Irving, TX Police Dept. had done to the young man. The only ones who are introducing race into the matter are some of those on the right, and I know exactly why they're doing it---to distract from the fact that they know their party is infected with racists. I'm a retired teacher. When I read the story, I didn't think about Ahmed's race, I thought about how unfairly he'd been treated. If anyone would have been somewhat justified in mentioning/ introducing race into the matter, it would be myself, being that I'm black and have had to deal with what this kid is dealing with my whole life, but it didn't happen. It was those who have lived a life of privileged status in regard to race in America who were first to play the race card, and this tells me a lot about them, mainly, that they're more focused on race than others. Also, besides the president, NASA, Zuckerberg at Facebook, professors at MIT and Harvard have invited Ahmed to visit their campuses/ facilities, but the one person some on the right decided to attack is the president. SMDH. Give me a break! Please, don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining because I know the difference. It has been some on the right who have been creating racial divisiveness since January 20, 2009. They do it and then accuse someone else of having done it, but sentient Americans know who the real culprits are, and we have known who they are since they started playing the race card..
DeleteI'm surprised he didn't use his standard excuse of just hitting back by not defending the president because Obama made jokes about him at last year's correspondence dinner.
ReplyDelete"If someone made a nasty or controversial statement about me to the president, do you really think he would come to my rescue? No chance!"
ReplyDelete----------------------------------------
No, Trump, you ill-mannered ass. You do the right thing if you are a man of character and class, whether or not you think the other person would do the same for you.
"If I would have challenged the man, the media would have accused me of interfering with that man's right of free speech. A no win situation!"
----------------------------------
Again, you boorish prat, you do the right thing because it is the right thing to do, regardless of what others think. And why do you have to "win"?
He first amendment ed Jorge Ramos without blinking. -sjp
DeleteI watched Jorge Ramos on Bill Maher last night and in listening to him really think he is a pompous ass. And, I'm not anti Mexicans! He rattles on, interrupts, resays the same thing over and over again and constantly quotes percentages to appear more knowledgeable (is my take!).
DeleteWatch the video of him at the Trump function when he was thrown out and then brought back into the room. He was being a bully!
Trump was calling on people (the media members in attendance) in a mannerly way and Ramos tried to interrupt Trump more than once. None of the other media members were acting at all in the same manner!
I don't favor Donald Trump in this presidential race either. Ramos has an attitude, that is for sure.
Great point Nefer to do the right thing and not be consumed with winning.
DeleteSo the question remains for lil' donnie-drama and the rest of his ilk: "Do you believe the president is a Muslim? Yes or no? Don't wait for the translation, just answer the question."
ReplyDelete(for the younger and/or non-history crowd...that's a classic line from Adlai Stevenson, our UN ambassador to the Russian ambassador about missles in Cuba https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSV9_J8Csts)
Stayed home from school and watched that on TV. One of the high points of my life. How I loved Adlai Stevenson.
DeleteTrump's near total ignorance of the constitution, foreign policy, governance, and the fact that he would be working for us, not the other way around, are all good reasons to consider him unfit to hold office, but they pale in comparison to the horror of electing an angry, greedy narcissist with no impulse control and the temperament of a nasty, spoiled rotten three year old to the highest office in the land.
ReplyDeleteConsider the electorate, his "base" -- can there is that many who would vote for this POS? Know fear if there are.
DeleteYou can gild a turd with the finest quality gold, but underneath it's still a turd.
ReplyDelete+1000
DeleteAnd you are surprised by his behavior,why?
ReplyDeleteHe hasn't changed, even a little bit.
I'm still hoping that Donald Trump wins the republican nomination for president at their next convention and after it's all over he makes a television appearance and tells the world he was never serious about wanting to be president, that he was testing just how stupid america has become by staging his most fabulous reality show ever "who wants to be president" starring Donald Trump, and that the RNC should pick someone else...
ReplyDeleteThere won't be enough popcorn kernels in the world for the shitstorm that ensues.
And some in the pee pond actually think he'll name the Tundra Twat as his veep, and promptly resign after being sworn in, making her prez.
Delete7:15 AM Trump has already slapped The Palin to the wayside. Plus, seriously doubt he'd make her a member of his Administration should he ever in the world get that far!
DeleteAfter that speech function that Trump, Cruz and Palin did (she invited herself to the function), she got the message and has not referenced him since.
Anyone who thinks $arah will be picked by Trump has the brains of a turnip
DeleteAnd your point is, 9:58? Turnips are actually quite large...I think more like a brussel sprout.
DeleteI'm still hoping that Donald Trump wins the republican nomination for president
Delete-----------
Be careful what you wish for, what if he doesn't drop out and they fix the voting machines.
Are you prepared for the destruction of the USA by Dictator Donald?
"he responds to criticism like a middle school girl who just found out somebody is talking shit behind her back"
ReplyDeleteI think Trump responds like a middle school boy who knows his is the smallest penis in the whole school.
Middle school girls aren't nearly so fragile as the Trumpster.
So true...about the littlest dick. You can always tell.
DeleteMiddle school girls may not be as fragile as the Donald, but they are every bit as waspish and hateful as he is.
DeleteBetween middle school girls and middle school boys there is not an iota of difference in their difficulty with handling criticism.
DeleteMiddle school CHILDREN are what they are. Using middle school "girl" to insult a man is, well, sorta middle school.
That's our hero Gryphen!!!!
DeleteTrump appeals to that empty-headed American who confuses swagger and tough talk for leadership. They love that hard drinking, two-fisted, cowboy image of the John Wayne, Bruce Willis, and Clint Eastwood. That image is so wrapped up in our national psyche that many think that's all it takes to cower our enemies, who then come running to us begging for forgiveness.
ReplyDeleteI heard a lot the other evening about how Obama doesn't know how the world operates, as if those stupid asses on stage know any better.
Cut through all the braggadocio, and Trump hasn't offered a single policy position with detail. He has said absolutely nothing, because like Sarah Palin, he really knows nothing.
Is it possible for him to win the White House? Possible. But if he does, America is going to witness the greatest flameout it has ever seen.
Yeah, well, I still refer back to the Biden/Colbert interview where Joe said, "this president has had more cross his desk..." and maybe that's why all these crazies are out. President Obama did his job TOO well and they've got nothing. Absolutely nothing to follow through with.
DeleteHis blood pressure must surely be so high about now, he'll be the one to flame out.
DeleteI dread the day when President Obama is no longer our leader. He's done such a good job and is steady, level headed, positive, smart, kind and an excellent communicator. And, the heads in Europe like him. Putin, head of Russia, does not, but that is more than OK with me!
DeleteI think Joe Biden getting into the race is going to split the Democratic party and think it a mistake.
Hillary Clinton would make an excellent POTUS. I see her a strong leader than him really.
Wow! Wonder which one President Obama would end up supporting? My suspicion is neither, at least publically.
Everyone notice how the candidates appear to have already lost weight just in this section of the event?
DeleteLook at The Donald when he began and that of Hillary Clinton.
Cannot imagine being in the mix - stress is horrible no matter the candidate or party. Assuredly cannot be a healthy choice deciding to run for POTUS!
With all the hatred Dictator Donald is stirring up about Pres. Obama, I hope some gun nut does not assassinate him.
DeleteHave you watched the security around Trump? It's almost as much as President Obama has - but, he has to pay for it himself due to not being the official Republican nominee at this point.
DeleteOnce, and IF he is, then he'll the protection paid for by American taxpayers.
It's obvious that Trump and his guards are worried someone will try to do him in!
I feel the same way I felt in 1st grade...paraphrasing The Donald from the new book just released. Could that explain the CHILDISH behavior that is on full display most of the time?
ReplyDeleteThis President had done everything possible to keep war criminals Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and others from standing trial at the Hague. I think it's about time Obama said fuck it and let Interpol take them into custody!
ReplyDeletePlease YES. Let this happen...for my sanity and health!
DeleteHe never will. He can't afford to set the precedent.
DeletePresidents protect previous Presidents - no matter the party! Bush will never be brought to trial and the Bush bunch of war mongers know it!
DeleteWhat juvenile EXCUSES! So Trump cares about this man's right to free speech, and not interfering with it. Yet, he throws out a Mexican reporter during a press meeting when he doesn't like that man's (Ramos) statements. He can't have it both ways.
ReplyDeleteAnd Trump returns to the infantile theme of "I will be great"
ReplyDeleteDonald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 2h2 hours ago Manhattan, NY
Christians need support in our country (and around the world), their religious liberty is at stake! Obama has been horrible, I will be great
These Christian liberty crap is getting old and sickening.
DeleteHells bells, the Prevo Baptists are hollering the same thing (Assembly Meeting for the Municipality of Anchorage) in Anchorage, AK!
I'm waiting for the Jews to rise up and demand we support Israel? Oh wait, most of them KNOW how much of their tax dollars feed the Israeli Army, and they think it's too much too. OK, how about the Scientologists start whining about how picked upon they are? No? The Buddhists? Muslims? Funny how the majority religion in this nation is the one doing all the whining, while also using their pulpits to preach politics, something that should get their tax exemptions revoked. I don't hear Muslim speakers telling their congregants to vote GOP or Dem. Anyone else?
DeleteIf they have God on their side, why do Christians need anyone else's support? Unless they realize their God isn't all powerful.
DeleteI think we (USA) should quit sending our tax dollars to Israel. Their leader is a total jerk and hates our country as well as President Obama.
DeleteI'm not anti Jews either - just sick to death of America taking care of other countries. Enough is enough! We need to care for our own here in the USA.
Let those countries bomb the hell out of each other - middle east especially! We need to stay out of their troubles!
Trump could have easily taken the tension out of the room with that question. But, he chose not to. What kind of President would do that? He's a divider, not a unifier.
ReplyDeleteAnd, Trump and Republicans call President Obama the divider! What total bullshit!
DeleteThe contradiction in two of his tweets is stunning. In the first, he asks why he should be morally obligated to defend the President every time someone says something bad or controversial about him; in the second, he complains that the President wouldn't defend him (Trump) if someone said something nasty about him.
ReplyDeleteSo which is it? He thinks it's no one's obligation to defend people, yet he complains that the President wouldn't defend him. "No chance", he writes. That says to us that he cares only about what people say about him. It's a sin to judge Trump, yet it's a 'right' to chose about defending the President or not against falsehood.
I wouldn't be surprised if he gained in the polls as the result of this. It's tiresome and exacerbating for Democrats to see this stupidity continue, but the majority of Republicans believe these lies, and leading Republican politicos have been pandering to the base for years regarding these beliefs. For them to attack Trump on this is hypocritical in the extreme. Attacks from the Republican party leaders only energize Trump voters, who are even angrier at their leadership than they are at the president.
ReplyDeleteI, too, think Trump's numbers will increase. Too many Republicans hate President Obama - they've been spreading hate for eons about him!
DeleteI would not be one bit surprised Trump gains the nomination either.
Cruz is on TV right now talking about how he has never bad mouthed Trump and won't. He mentioned the numbers of people that watched the debates - beating all numbers - implying Trump brought up the numbers.
This numbers are people who 'tuned in,' not how many watched the entire Lies and Myths for three hours. I tuned in a couple of times for about five minutes: am I counted twice? Who counts? How do they know? I think, like Trump's made up rally numbers, this is a farce. But hey, everyone but the dumbest among us knows Cruz can lie better than Pinocchio. He's such a creepy guy.
Deleteoo many Republicans hate President Obama
Delete-------------
But President Obama is not running !!!
I would like to know how much the Donald is paying people to come to his rallies. As someone who cheats in business, I wouldn't put it past him.
Interesting how the Republicans keep bashing President Obama who is not running for any office. (It's great President Obama is countering their punches and misinformation being put out there by the various candidates too!).
DeleteAnd, they are also trying to do it to Hillary Clinton. The media spreads the crap for them - they keep showing polls that have zero relevance to anything when the voting process is so far out.
The media is who has been pushing Joe Biden to run so that he will split the Democratic party so that a Republican might have a better chance to win!
Our government is a fucking mess - run by the rich and our fucked up media.
I have every intention of helping when the elections are nearer - plan to help getting the folks out to vote! Drive them to voting places, etc. I suggest other Americans do the same across the country.
We can beat these jerks!!! Yes, I'm an Independent and would not cast a vote for any Republican that is currently showing their face!
First Trump said he didn't hear the question, then went into hiding to come up with this nonsense. Keeping in mind that he perpetuated the birther story, he more than anyone else should have had the correct response....since he did a very thorough "investigation of the birth certificate". Now is the time to put up or shut up, Donald. What did your investigation find?
ReplyDeleteSince our Constitution forbids a religious test to become a citizen, what difference would it have made if Obama actually is Muslim? There are millions of Muslims that are educated, competent, and non-extremist. That would be like saying every billionaire is boorish and a bully since we all know one who is.
shEEEEIT!

Trump sends investigators to Hawaii to look into Obama
mug.mooney
Posted by
CNN Political Producer Alexander Mooney
Washington (CNN) – Self-proclaimed birther Donald Trump is now so doubtful of President Obama's birthplace that he's sent a team of his own investigators to Hawaii in hopes of getting to the bottom of the issue.
That's according to Trump himself, who, in an interview with NBC, warned his investigators just might uncover "one of the greatest cons in the history of politics and beyond."
"I have people that have been studying it and they cannot believe what they're finding," Trump said an interview that aired Thursday Morning.
Asked if he has assigned people specifically to search in Hawaii, Trump said, "Absolutely."
The business mogul, who in a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll is tied for second place among potential presidential candidates, also suggested the president is involved in an ongoing cover-up over the matter."
TIME TO SHIT OR GET OFF THE POT!!!
His whole problem is HE'S FULL OF SHIT!!!
Deletetrump took stone walling to a whole new level and it's yoooge!!
ReplyDeleteMan, oh man....he is "Palin in Pants!"
ReplyDeleteReally. Palin is the first thing I thought of when I read what Trump had said.
DeleteAfter the debate, Trump was down and Fiorina was up.
ReplyDeleteThen this.
I think we're finally seeing the peak and decline of Trump. He can't tweet his way out of this one.
Jeb scored a palpable hit and is not out of the race yet.
I'm a woman and think Fiorina nasty with a horrible business career of continued failures.
DeleteShe is not physically attractive (Trump was correct!) and she has a nasty tone to her rhetoric. No warmth coming out of her pores either which reminds me of the proven political idiot in Alaska, Sarah Palin!
Seriously, with all the money this guy stole with his 4 bankruptcies, you would think he would have enough money to afford a hair transplant. His orangutan butt must have plenty to spare for hair plugs.
ReplyDeleteTrump always has to get even. He cannot let anything go. It is hard to decide who is more juvenile about getting even-- Trump, finally coming up with some tweets-- or Sarah Palin who can't get over President Obama inviting Ahmed the Clock Kid to the White House.
ReplyDeleteIn Sarah's case there are several things going on. None of her kids will ever be as smart as 14 year old Ahmed. None of her kids will ever be invited to the White House. And, she still hasn't gotten over the 2008 election.
Such a child. Love how he twists things around so as to rationalize his incompetency. We all already knew him to be a person who can't handle admitting he's wrong, but this really takes the cake. No one asked him to stand up for Obama. All he was required to do was state that Obama is a Christian and an American. And of course Obama would correct someone if they stated something major that was obviously in error. And he'd not feel any less of a man and any less powerful for doing it. Trump is such a narcissistic and yet so delicate. I read a great piece by Penn Jillette last night and recommend it:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.salon.com/2012/11/17/penn_jillettes_secrets_of_celebrity_apprentice_donald_trump_is_a_whackjob/
The idiot Sarah Palin would not have stood up for the POTUS either! Betcha most of the Republicans in the clown car would have ignored the question and just moved on to the next one!
DeleteDon't trust a damned one of them!
Hah. Five tweets on the subject. He must have been dying to say something earlier but his people told him not to, and then he just couldn't take it anymore, like when he obsessed over Megyn Kelly and had to keep tweeting about her in the middle of the night.
ReplyDeleteShould add: there are four of his tweets shown here, but if you check out his Twitter you'll see his first tweet broaching the subject talks about Christianity needing defending. Five tweets. The matter is driving him crazy.
DeleteWhat a pompous ass ! Proves again, Money can't buy Class.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, how come he is responding when he already claimed he didn't hear the question
Donald Trump Claims Voters Don’t Care That He Knows Nothing Because He Can Buy The Presidency
ReplyDelete..........It’s Donald Trump, touting his power to buy the presidency as a rich celebrity, in an interview with the New York Times:
“Expressing confidence that American voters do not care if he lacks specifics, Donald J. Trump says he has yet to fully exploit his personal advantages over his Republican presidential rivals — chiefly his enormous wealth and celebrity — and that both will matter more to his political fate than debate performances like his shaky one this week.
“Mr. Trump said in an interview that he was prepared to spend $100 million or more to become the Republican nominee and that most of it would go to galvanizing voter support in states with early nominating contests.”.............
http://www.politicususa.com/2015/09/19/donald-trump-reveals-pure-gop-heart-voters-dont-care-nothing-buy-presidency.html
------------
So he is going to pay people to vote for him.
Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him?

Yes, it is called respecting the Office of the President of the United States when lies are spoken.
