Fine, then tell your candy-asses here to stop running to their fainting couches because The Donald let loose with some salty language. It is neither an indication or confirmation of character. It is simply a way to express oneself - just as U.S. Grant and Sherman used salty language and whiskey to win the war.

Actually, Grant and Sherman used terrorism toward defenseless civilian women and children to win that war. More of those fine New York values.

I was born in, and live happily in the country with rednecks of several ethnicities-I work on a crew with men-real men-and I so agree with your posts-I am laughing my ass off at the way some of the guys here are cringing over an F’ bomb used in a political stump speech-they wouldn’t last 10 minutes on our jobsites without ear protectors...

It’s Trump’s problem. He’ll probably loose some votes for this, regardless of what you might think about profanity.

Just like two days ago. My 81-year-old father, who doesn’t really follow news/politics too much these days, has been very inclined to support Trump. He hadn’t spoken of any other candidate whatsoever. He was all but in Trump’s corner. But I was with him when the news came out that Trump was threatening to “sue” over the Iowa results. My father uttered, “man, that guy sure is showing himself off as a jerk.” The litigation thing. Totally soured my father. So these things matter. Trump almost certainly lost a primary vote there.

Grant, Sherman... don’t forget Patton!

The “F word” doesn’t bother me in the least. I seriously cringe and have stomach turns when the Lord’s name in any form is used as profanity. All the other stuff... just words and no Commandments against them.
