You gotta admit, the guy knows how to troll. Some of the SDMB trolls could learn a thing or two from him.
Didn’t he just call a breastfeeding woman disgusting? Give him credit, he doesn’t hold back on giving you his opinion of you. I’m picturing him shaking hands with supporters. “Hey, how are you? I don’t care. You’re ugly.”
Hey, you gotta admire someone for having strong opinions and stating them, right?
Right…?
Okay, not so much.
I’m watching his act right now and he says he’s not sure if Hillary will even be able to run, because “what she did is a criminal act. She burned up the emails! She got rid of her hard-drive!”
Sorry, Amy Schumer. The real “Trainwreck” will be the coming debates.
You mean like Hitler?

**
The Kochs freeze out Donald Trump**
Continued stiff-arming by the powerful Koch network could limit Trump’s ability to build a professional campaign operation.
OK, its Politico. So, grain of salt, minimum. Still…
Trump Vs Koch, Tag Team Steel Cage Death Match…Sunday, Sunday…SUNDAY!!
Some of these are old, and some are more recent.

A few samples
Actually, you do. All politicians should speak like Trump. I’d just like to think that’s what’s inside their heads isn’t so alarming.
Sorry, but I can’t admire stupid opinions or, even worse, evil and destructive opinions. How sincerely they’re held and how honestly they’re stated doesn’t matter.
ETA: In any case, I’m not convinced of Trump’s sincerity. He supported Hillary Clinton in the past and donated to Democrats.
Trump’s unusually awful though. Most people are quite reasonable and thoughtful, with just a few weird or untenable ideas. Although given the mental illness that seems to be common among political professionals, probably all of them think like Trump, they just listen to their handlers better.
I just saw an article about this.
Trump to Breastfeeding Mom: ‘You’re Disgusting’, Rachel Bertsche, Yahoo Parenting News, July 29, 2015.
Note the incident happened in 2011 but is just being reported today. Article includes link to alleged NYT article that seems to be a broken or defunct link. Googling for it, this might be it:
Donald Trump Calls Lawyer in Breastfeeding Incident ‘A Horrible Person’, reported yesterday. The incident may be old, but Trump stood by it when questioned about it yesterday (July 28 apparently). Nobody denies the incident happened, although the parties tell it a little differently.
More recently though, Trump made clear that he isn’t hustling after the kiddie vote, nor apparently the mommy vote either:
From same Yahoo article mentioned just above.
He certainly doesn’t have great restraint when it comes to congratulating himself for not being such a magnificent jackass. Damning himself with faint praise much?
Has he actually even articulated any real policy proposals yet, or is he just saying a bunch of random stuff?
He’s gonna build a wall, remember? Create lot of jobs for the stonemasons.
It’s already the law to build a wall.
Probably Latino crews from behind Home Depot, ironically.
Here’s a video of a NH focus group on why they like Trump. The focus group is about 2:30 into the video. Unfortunately you can’t skip ahead and have to play it from the beginning (at least that’s how it works for me).
Among other things they think that a Trump presidency would be “classy”.
Trump could be an antonym for classy…
Right. That video is a real jaw dropper. It’s scary.
The people in that video are obviously not exactly Wall Street CEOs, but they say that Trump is “one of us”.
If the Mexicans are going to pay for the wall they might as well get the jobs, too.
I can just imaging President Trump turning the East Room into an indoor pool with swim-up bar. It’s gonna be HUGE!
