Why distort what Trump has said? In the link, he says that he is in favor of rethinking American participation in NATO. Nowhere does he say he wants to demolish NATO. The US carries a heavy financial burden in NATO, and it is only reasonable that European countries such as Germany contribute more. Further, there is more danger now from terrorism. NATO was founded at the time of the cold war. If NATO is to provide protection to the EC, it must reevaluate its defense plans to deal with the terrorist threat from Islamic extremists.

Actually, I agree with you. I took Kasich at his word, and his word was not good. I won’t make that mistake again. 😊

P.S. I heard pretty much the same from Wendy Davis just a few minutes ago. One sentence in particular: she said that Trump is “putting into words what [Republicans] have been doing right along.”

Like I said, we should be prepared for more (and more).

P.P.S. Add Rachel Maddow to the list. This one I hope makes it to Youtube, for the following reason: if you haven’t seen it I can’t really convey to you how condescending she sounds as she lectures the listener with statements like “If you are prolife (pause) that doesn’t just mean that you choose not to have an abortion (pause) that mean you want abortion to be illegal!”
 
These people in the Media sure don’t ask Mr. Sanders or Mrs. Clinton any tough questions about abortion and how these politicians support the shedding of the blood of innocent unborn children, or call them Anti-Unborn, all in the name of being in favor of an immoral “choice” to destroy.

Also, these “Town Halls” and Debates put on by the Media are never at a socially conservative university or college. They held a Republican Debate at the University of Miami.

Why not have one at a Catholic University or College?

It’s like the Media pretends Catholic Universities and Colleges don’t exist except when their teams play sports on Saturday.

I suppose because no Catholic college has invited them.
 
The newsmedia is so disgusting that yesterday, I actually watched a segment on CBS of a film crew that went to Lewis. Scotland, where Trump’s mother was born, to interview people who said they were embarrassed by Trump’s connection to the island.
I've met liberal Democrats who have told me that they think Hillary Clinton is an embarrassment. So why can't they be interviewed on the national news ?

I think this idea that Trump gets all the hard questions is a complete red herring. All the candidates get tough questions. Some just can’t answer them coherently or consistently.

IMO Trump is an embarrassment to the GOP, but they brought it on themselves. Meanwhile, Trump’s likeability ratings go down. Make way for President Clinton.

Don’t depend on Catholic universities to be conservative. They are part of academia.

One shouldn’t too readily depend on most of them to be Catholic either.

That’s right, but the one I teach at is very Catholic. Could just be an exception. I don’t know; I haven’t been to many of them. I wouldn’t call it conservative, though.

But Trump is the only one that the media called “Teflon Don” – I mean they promoted the narrative that nothing he does causes him to lose supporters. Seems to me that the media want to have their cake and eat it too.
