He’s made a habit of insulting people’s appearances. > > It’s typical of Trump (like many other tiny-penised men) to throw a tantrum when someone does unto him what he does to everyone else. Hahahaha. Do you imagine “Little Marco” must be a reference to Rubio’s junk? Couldn’t the reference imply that Trump considers Rubio to be a small person politically? Trump did not call “Carly” Fiorina ugly. But what do the facts matter when you are talking politics? ---

> [@ElvisL1ves](#): > > You expect an adult who’s being attacked by children to smile, shake his/her head ruefully at their antics, and go on to demonstrate a responsible command of facts and policies and experience etc. by comparison. Which participant is under the age of 21? Or under 18? Or under 13? Trump is a counter-puncher. You seem to object to Trump defending himself. If you don’t want Hiroshima, don’t start Pearl Harbor. Just the other day, CNN spokesmodel and wanna-be political king-maker, Jake Tapper, via an internet hookup, told Trump about some group claiming that David Duke supports Trump. Trump replied, "_I have to look at the group. I mean, I don’t know what group you’re talking about. You wouldn’t want me to condemn a group that I know nothing about. I have to look. If you would send me a list of the groups, I will do research on them. And certainly I would disavow if I thought there was something wrong_. _“You may have groups in there that are totally fine and it would be very unfair. So give me a list of the groups, and I’ll let you know,”_ It sounds to me as if Trump didn’t understand which group(s) Tapper had originally mentioned or why they were saying Duke endorsed Trump. A real reporter would have investigated the situation before pressing ahead with his political diatribe. Trump asked for a list of the groups Tapper was referring to. Clearly, there was a miscommunication over this internet connection that the CNN viewing audience wasn’t subjected to. Did Tapper ever supply Trump with the name of the group who claimed Duke endorsed Trump? Or doesn’t it matter? Trump had previously denounced the KKK and he denounced the KKK after the Trapper debacle. When it became clear what Tapper was asking. All of what Tapper had been asking. But Tapper and CNN had the sound bite they needed. Move along, move along. No clarification needed. ---

Yeah, we all know that Donald Trump is much too restrained and responsible to shoot from the lip and attack groups of people without doing his research first… :rolleyes: :rolleyes: ---

> [@doorhinge](#): > > In this current politically correct society? Seriously? :smack: That is an old saying taught to children to help them learn how adults are expected to act. You’ll have to explain how that constitutes political correctness. Or are you just following the current fad of dismissing anything you disagree with as political correctness and therefore deserving of ridicule? ---
