You know, you’re right that Glenn Beck’s comments about Trump were disgusting.
However, what’s worse is when THE CANDIDATE HIMSELF — in this case Trump — talks of murdering someone, and knowing that his followers would stick with him. Trump is a nut. I could never imagine Reagan or George W. — or even Clinton or Obama — saying something that stupid and ego-driven. Trump is weird — and we’re not even talking about being “attracted” to his daughter. The man makes me ill.
Well hey there, thanks for interjecting YOURSELF into my comment to ANOTHER poster...Know what’s even worse? When a person DOESN’T KNOW what they are talking about—and is just using talking points to attack! I really wish you would have stayed out of my comment. But you didn’t and I cannot let your inaccurate accusations stand.
Beck is off the rails—he talked about STABBING Trump, referred to Trump as Hitler and his supporters as Nazis, etc. He was deemed serious enough that Secret Service questioned him...It is not only disgusting, it is frightening...I listened to the tape—several times; I really don’t think he was kidding.
Did you listen to the Trump tapes? I did several times... Were you at the Rally? I have both heard the tapes, and been at a Rally...Guess what?!?! he was KIDDING!!! Sheesh...
Trump’s comments...as per WAPO:
They say I have the most loyal people - did you ever see that? - where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose any voters,” Trump said, illustrating his point by pulling his fingers into a gun shape. “Okay? It’s like incredible.”
The crowd laughed and clapped, and someone in the audience shouted out love for the candidate.
“We love you, too, man,” Trump said.
Of course, the pundits and media neglect the context of the quote. The audience ate it up and were laughing and clapping and shouting their love for Trump.
Everyone gets the joke except the liberal media and Cruz supporters. Sheesh! Maybe you should have listened to the tape before interjecting out of context comments into my comments to another poster..
Regarding your second accusation: From 10 years ago Trump and his daughter had just sat down for an interview with a group of women—The View TV show, and the women on the View immediately asked TRump (first question) what he thought about Ivanka appearing on cover of Playboy or nude in Playboy. Ivanka commented”this should be an interesting answer” because what Dad has planned a response to a question clearly unexpected and designed to shock...
Trump said it would be really disappointing and he did not think she would do that inside the magazine...then he added “Altho she does have a very nice figure...I have said that if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her”
One sentence. He didn’t mean he would date his daughter... nor is he attracted to his daughter as you said in your post...If you wish to be ill, how about being ill about Loretta Lynch and some of her new directives—Senator Cruz was campaigning or fundraising during the confirmation hearing vote...so we don’t know if he would have voted for or against her...
No, Trump is not politically correct—..and it would have been easier had he not said either...but he did and it is past...you choose to reject him on this. Many don’t. Perhaps it is because Trump challenges political correctness on both the left and right which is dangerous to our country and our liberties.
you choose not understand to so that you can be offended...If you had been to a rally and seen or met his children, you would not be making these comments and thinking the way you are...They are all nice, smart, happy kids. Trump is happily married, Ivanka, is now a mom, and her adult siblings are happily married. They are a great family.
I would not have chosen to say things Trump does primarily because they have become fodder for foolish people who don’t bother to look into the facts and are perched waiting to jump on Trump.
