The claim now is that he "didn't hear the question".
Quote:
War on Christianity? And shouldn't someone planning to run for President be sure they know what question they're answering? It reminds me of a scene in the Richard Pryor/Jackie Gleason movie "The Toy". "Do you know who you're posing for a picture with, Senator? "Why...no. I don't." "You're standing next to the Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan." (Senator ducks away while covering his face.) |

I think that guy at the Town Meeting is a damn good example of the hard core Trump supporters.

So what if Trump did not hear the question? The fact is that such a question was actually asked by one of Trump supporters and juding by the auidence reaction, then quite a few of the other Trump supporters liked what the man asking the question had to say.
Quote:
Trump has now had plenty of time to clarify his answer and yet he has not done so, therefore the Trump silence says a great deal about him. |

Other people agreed with you which is why he spent part of Saturday night fielding questions about it after an appearance in Iowa. That's where he gave his "I love Muslims," answer.
I think the guy is a self-absorbed clown. I was just pointing out that he wasn't being silent about his poor answer to the crazy-headed question. |

"I did not hear the question" is about as convincing an excuse as "The Dog Ate My Homework".

On various online social media sites, I have been called feminazi, libtard, illiterate, sick, pinhead shill, bitch, poo eater, and so on. Donald Trump supporters have called me some of these things. If they really want to represent their guy, they should be more polite.
I choose to take the high road and not stoop down to the level of the people who insult me. If I were running for office, I would probably be called even worse things. I still would not stoop to their level. Everyone on the ISF forums have been nice to me. I like you all! |

Well you can say the same thing about Hillary and Bernie supporters also, It's just whos site/ forum you happen to be on. go to Bernie or Hillarys site and say something that you would say to a Trump supporter and watch what will happen to you. The only difference is one party likes to be lead you around like sheep and the other wants to be free and uphold the constitution.

I choose not to insult Trump supporters. I have called Trump names such as megalomaniac narcissistic buffoon. Trump is in the public eye, so he is fair game. I choose not to insult family members of any of the presidential candidates.
I have also tweeted Bible verses about social justice and other topics to Donald Trump and to Ann Coulter. It doesn't seem to be doing any good, lol |

Irony meter: busted explosively.
How you can claim that the TEAOP wants "freedom" when it supportes the subjugation of the working class and terrorizes the poor while simultaneously refusing to pass needful bills in a timely manner threatening government shutdowns to try to force policy and outright REFUSING to even give the President his SCOTUS nominee is classic right-wing cognitive dissonance. |

You do, I trust, realize you are saying with the noted and reddened line that it speaks out of both sides of itself.... I could assume it (the republicker party) wants to lead you around like sheep OR be lead around like sheep but the statement does not come down clearly on either side. Oh I assume it is republicker due to the clear happiness republickers show in stomping on many points of the Constitution with happiness and mad raving joy!!!!
One of the major reasons (but certainly a big one) why I am not a fan of republickers. Note as noted otherwheres, I had not near that level of problem with the real Republican Party but the GOP started dying around 1980 and has been almost entirely replaced with hardcore Bircher types, KKK types and related nutcases like the rabid anti-abortioners and fundy religionists! Hell with 'em and can't be soon enough. |

Trump is like an athletic supporter - he is always hanging around and supporting pricks.

What do you do when neither major-party candidate meets the qualifications you have described?
ETA OK, I was reeled in by your joke. Virtually every single voter in the US votes for the one who -will do the best jobIt is just that everyone defines those three things differently enough that the original claim is meaningless. I could print those three things on a t-shirt and sell them at the Republican convention, the Democratic convention, and most all third-party conventions. |

Well I will not be voting for Hillary as she les more then Obama does. I have a friend that was in Benghazi he was at the Annex when the attack happened. his name is Kris Paronto and you can read about him in the book 13 hours or see the movie he and several others tried to save our people there and were told by Clinton to stand down.

If this isn't steaming BS, I'll eat some steaming BS.
More likely, you and/or your friend are parroting (steaming) BS from the right wing echo chamber that you swallowed hook, line and sinker.
