It really doesn't even matter if he was for or against the war, because even in the unlikely event that he wasn't both for and against the war, he probably was talking out of his #### in order to generate some buzz.  Hilarious to me that he believes going on the Howard Stern and saying edgy contrarian things is equivalent to foreign policy experience. 

 
"I have thousands of people saying Trump University is fantastic, ok?"

"You know the plaintiffs in the case have all said wonderful things about the school and they're suing. You know why they're suing, because they want to get their money back."

:bs:

Trump told his supporters that an African-American supporter who attended one of his rallies in Arizona had punched a protester who had turned up wearing a traditional Ku Klux Klan hood.

“This African-American gets up and, man, he slugged these guys. He slugged them.”

Trump said many people thought the black supporter at the earlier rally was an opponent of his campaign.

“He was like this great guy, military guy, we have tremendous African-American support,” he said
Again, the difference being Hillary and Bernie both denounce such violence.  Trump celebrates and encourages it.

Gosh if only there was a way they could show up and testify for him.

 
It's kind of brilliant by Tapper, he asks him about the charge he doesn't have the temperament to be president, then next question is the Curiel story whereupon Trump goes off on an irrational rant.

 
You have to watch the clip from the Tapper interview to get the full craziness evident in the Curiel discussion. I can't believe we are here.

We are going to build a wall, okay...

He is so used to saying that and and having people feel start applauding, it has become a fall back to whenever he is out of things to say or is wandering in territory where he is going to start lying.

 
"I don't have thin skin, I have very strong, very thick skin okay"
He has beautiful hands, long lustrous fingers, and very strong, very thick skin.

Beautiful man really. 'Oh what were we talking about? Oh that's right whether you can be trusted with the nuclear codes, carry on.'

 
"They're thugs, they're paid agitators" You have evidence for that? "I'm sure you can find that out."

Typical

 
What were your other impressions of the Soviet Union?

I was very unimpressed. Their system is a disaster. What you will see there soon is a revolution; the signs are all there with the demonstrations and picketing. Russia is out of control and the leadership knows it. That’s my problem with Gorbachev. Not a firm enough hand.

You mean firm hand as in China?

When the students poured into Tiananmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak … as being spit on by the rest of the world–

Why is Gorbachev not firm enough?

I predict he will be overthrown, because he has shown extraordinary weakness. Suddenly, for the first time ever, there are coal-miner strikes and brush fires everywhere- which will all ultimately lead to a violent revolution. Yet Gorbachev is getting credit for being a wonderful leader and we should continue giving him credit, because he’s destroying the Soviet Union. But his giving an inch is going to end up costing him and all his friends what they most cherish-their jobs.

- 1990 Trump interview.

- eta - I'm seeing a situation where Donald inflames people, citizens and non alike, with his threats of deportation and the wall, and then he goes stronghand to suppress demonstrations (which indeed could be violent). In America.

His usual thing is say some bat#### conspiracy theory and then if asked to give details he says "well I'm not saying that but I hear things" :lol:

 
Trump on Trump supporters punching protestors: I'll pay their legal bills!

Sanders/Clinton on anti-Trump protestors: It's ugly and should stop.

The Mayor of San Jose did a terrible job of ordering the protection of innocent people. The thugs were lucky supporters remained peaceful!
Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump Jun 3
Great evening in San Jose other than the thugs. My supporters are far tougher if they want to be, but fortunately they are not hostile.


 
Exactly. What did we do to deserve this? :oldunsure:
Republicans did this to themselves with that Tea Party ####. You get an orange, ego maniac, nutjob, reality show conman, but hey at least he is not an "DC Insider type".

Dems, well Hillary just outlasted everyone. She is Rasputin-like in her refusal to die off. 

 
GOP Senators Soothing South Korea

Three Republican senators visited South Korea this week in a bid to reassure Seoul that should presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump move into the White House, U.S. policy toward the country will not change.

Freshman Senators Joni Ernst of Iowa, Cory Gardner of Colorado, and Dan Sullivan of Alaska–who are not up for re-election in November 2016–are in Asia on a four-nation tour.

The Dems did it themselves also by coronating Hilary way too early. This is a different election cycle if Bernie would have been able start like he's finishing.

I seem to recall Bernie doing very well in Iowa and destroying Hillary in New Hampshire. But now it was a coronation? 

 
Hillary has been doing this since 2008. She got out done by a guy coming out of nowhere with  "Hussein" in his name and then got all she could handle from an ancient, self proclaimed socialist who owns one wrinkled suit :lol:

She's not really very good at being likable, kind of important in an election.

While the Tea Party does seem to be supporting Trump, it is our government that did this to us. Had they really been paying attention and responsive, it would have never gotten this out of hand. I know  number of people told my representative to listen to the Tea Party grievances and she wrote them off as fringe. That fringe, plus many others gave us Trump; the Democrats gave us ugly as usual. The problem isn't Trump; the problem is we allowed a situation to develop that gave us Trump.

You keep repeating this, and I think it's nonsense. 

What would it have meant for the government to be "paying attention and responsive"? Should Congress have shut everything down in order to force Obama's hand on Obamacare? Should Congress have refused to raise the debt ceiling and let our economy go into the tank? It was the Republicans refusal to commit harikiri on these two issues that seems to have enraged Republican voters the most.

People pick who they want. Republucans went the Tea Party lunatic route for a variety of reasons.

People who really are into this stuff probably can find other examples of how this has always been happening but it seemed it started most recently when McCain picked bat#### Sarah Palin.

Democrats aren't picking these nutjobs.

Hillary regardless if you don't like her or Bill is qualified and a reasonable candidate.

Trump is not.

This is the first time I've mentioned the Tea Party since I've been back. Please pay attention.

 
The GOP will eat and own this one. And the time between now and the Convention will be full of Republicans talking about how he doesn't mean what he says, how he'll improve, how he'll be more temperate as president, and those running down ticket will have to disavow him and embrace him at the same time. They are stuck with him.

Did I miss a Constitutional Amendment that says you have to be over 35 and a natural-born citizen to be qualified for President? Or do we not follow that document anymore? Trump is qualified - he is just a ####ty candidate. Hillary is a ####ty candidate too, no matter how "qualified" you think she is.

The Tea Party is an anti-tax protest group that got hijacked by the religious right. I remember at their first rally in Spokane, the local House Representative got booed off the stage.

We are saying the same thing I think, no? Enough republicans got together and picked some nutjobs. Trump being their latest masterpiece.

They also said he would be more "presidential" once he won the nomination.

 
Trump has a legitimate claim that the Judge should recuse himself for potential bias.  The guy belongs to San Diego La Raza, an advocacy group for Latinos - even illegals.

Identity politics coming home to roost.
