I don’t operate like that. If I make a charge in a public forum then I back it up in a public forum.

Trump is like Clinton or Sanders in terms of abortion. I don’t believe him for one second that he is sincerely pro-life or had any change of heart. I base that simply on the fact that he has flipped flopped on defunding PP which as anyone who is following this campaign can attest to.

Someone who is truly pro-life would never flip flop on defunding that evil institution.

I am not trained in psychology or any of that, but my opinion is the occupier of the oval office fits more under NPD.

I don’t know enough about Trump to make a claim. Trump has been very successful in the business world and he is not shy from boasting about that.

I would disagree. Obama doesn’t strike me as someone who is fragile and vulnerable to the slightest criticism and easily hurt.I see Obama the exact opposite of that.

However, I see Trump that way.

Agree. And not to mention the significant financial donations made to pro - choice politicians, and the lack of support of any prolife causes.

For those of us who would like to know exactly how Trump will preserve our country for the next four years, where shall we tune in for the details?

I would love to believe we have a Republican candidate that will save this country. But I want details, not sound bytes. And I want to know where and when I am going to hear all about it.

You asked me to read the rules. Which ones should I be paying attention to? The ones about charity or the ones about not commenting on the sins of other candidates? I think I may have broken both of them speaking about Ms. Clinton and if I did I am sorry for offending you or anyone else.

I know I have not been kind to the current President in these trump threads. Sorry about that too.

If you read the subtext closely it says the following:

*The aforementioned do no apply Barack Obama. Cause, like, he *really *stinks.

So I think you’re good.

Obama does not take criticism well.

Trump can laugh it off.

Strange, I see the exact opposite . 😃 I see criticism rolling off Obama like water off a duck. LOL

A very curious field of study, psychology. 🙂
 
Obama refuses to go on Fox also, Trump can do the same. Thanks. Lots of people don’t like Fox remember, most Democrats here? You hear about it here daily. Frankly I don’t like CNN or MSN either. Its a free will choice, freedom of conscience. Besides he knows it will help his rating and put all the attention on him till the debate. Roger Ailes should stick to the point journalism and not propaganda and they wouldn’t be in this situation.

Its Trumps call.

Are you kidding? Every report from the white house from former staffers or media members indicates there have been few men as averse to criticism or suggestions as BO. Former military officials say the same thing.

The man’s ego is only matched by his penchant for spending tax money and running down Christianity.

This is not to say Trump doesn’t have a massive ego as well, but by all accounts, he at least listens to the counsel anf takes the advice of those around him.

That has never been said of BO.

I don’t see that at all, in fact I think he internalizes and acts off his hurt and anger and it comes out misdirected and results in executive order and a divided country, and in fact Obama admits he did nothing to unite divided parties. Trump would do well to process his emotions a bit instead of thinking any response he makes off the top his head is perfection of feelings.

Obama is more subtle in his personality so it’s not as obvious. He is the passive aggressive type while trump is all out there. But I see trump as a fighter rather than a narcissist. The difference is that when trymp talks and brags about himself it doesn’t make his audience feel less, while a true narcissist will put down others to hoist up oneself. trump makes his audience laugh and be themselves. And actually he is very tough. He has been interviewed by more hostile people than all other candidates. He can handle anything including hostile protesters at his rally with deftness. He will face a challenge head on. Some people may not like how blunt he is, but others like me see it as refreshing. It’s politics without veneers.

Agreed…except, I think it unfair to pigeon hole all Democrats here as not liking FOX.

Since FOX has been instrumental in the recently apparent demise of the GOP, I think they are marvelous, and hope they keep up the good work!😃
 
The demise of both parties is clearly more accurate and the media in general has become much suspect all the way around. This started back with Clinton and Gingrich and has escalated into party driven agendas via finance. Still even further aside from the radicals are the others, perhaps the vast majority, who are quietly and disconsolately devastated.

A “lot of people” don’t like to hear both sides of a story, they are deaf to all but their own opinions. When one expects to run for president they should know that they will get hard questions and had better be prepared to answer same. Trump has been in a snit since the first FOX debate over a question he chose to believe was unfair. Rather childish, IMO. And those who discount Trump’s personality do so at their own risk. How will he possibly deal with countries who don’t like him or our politics? He can’t walk away from that.

It makes Trump a good candidate. You are talking about him. Everyone in America is talking about Donald Trump.

If by good candidate you mean embarrassing to America and dangerous to this country and the world… Then I agree with you 100%

Obama has been very vindictive. Just look what the IRS was doing.

What I don’t get is that in cyberspace at least, the populace sided with Trump against Kelly. She lost a lot of luster. And this is in keeping with this election cycle, where nothing he says ends up hurting him (the closest he came was the “McCain’s not a hero” bit which got forgotten quickly).

So from where I sit, why avoid the debate, unless he has other reasons as mentioned? Kelly and Fox News know there would extra scrutiny to not turn it into a “Fox News RNC debate featuring Cruz, Rubio, Christie, Carson, Kaisch, and Megyn Kelly versus Trump in the Main Event!”
