Donald Trump: Reince Priebus didn’t tell me to ‘tone it down’

[GIdget2004]

Donald Trump remembers that phone call with Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus a bit differently.

The Donald took to Twitter on Thursday morning to slam a Washington Post report that Priebus spent nearly an hour on the phone with him this week, during which Priebus told him multiple times to “tone it down.”

“Totally false reporting on my call with @Reince Priebus. He called me, ten minutes, said I hit a ‘nerve’, doing well, end!” Trump wrote.

[erlayman]

There is no way either of them spent an hour on the phone over this. At least if you are going to make it up make it believable.

[stanne]

There are Levin, Cruz and Rudy. Not in any particular order

And there are DOJ, USSC and SoS

[stanne]

Aren’t all bully’s pansies when facing a real challenge?

[TomGuy]

I can see that Priebus might have asked him to tone down his rhetoric.

I can imagine Trump’s response — probably no more than 2 words: ___ you.

So far, Trump has made it clear that he is not beholden to the GOP elites or leadership.

Also, so far, Trump is shining light on some issues the GOP elites and leadership would prefer to be ignored, but Trump’s position on those issues is resonating in fly-over country.

This report tries to discredit Trump, and is publish all over the world in Spanish.

They do not have this report in Spanish yet, but it's all over Latin America papers in Spanish

La Prensa is from Honduras.

The target is Trump, they are trying to show he is a liar.

 

"Estudio desmonta con cifras las tesis racistas de Donald Trump"

 

Study dismantled the racists figures of Donald Trump

 

 

Also Univision at http://noticias.univision.com/article/2394810/2015-07-08/estados-unidos/noticias/inmigrantes-comenten-menos-crimenes-que-los-nacidos-en-eeuu

 Unision said that "  Immigrants commit fewer crimes than native-born,"  but they do not 

 show the difference between legal and illegal immigrants, here is the intention  against what Trump said.

 

I believe this is some kind of front for progressives or socialists.

 Also today another front  talking about all immigrants from Mexico  when Trump spoke about illegals.  

  DC  WASHINGTON, July 9, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Greater Washington Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (GWHCC) would like to show its support and validate the sentiments of the Hispanic community in light of Mr. Donald Trump's, Chairman and President of The Trump Organization and founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts, recent comments about Mexican immigrants. He expressed that they bring problems like drugs and violent crime into the United States and that they are not "sending their best people." -

That Washington leaking-to-the-press thing can be dangerous, especially for the GOPee and Conservatives.

RinsePee, Trump's Hellhound, needs to be careful when playing with fire.

[Guenevere]

If that happened it must be a direct result of pressure from Trump and maybe from all of us in flyover country who are boycotting Macys......money talks loudly!

[grania]

These losers can't even stand up to Obama, who isn't very bright, but plays an in-your-face game that scares them. What chance do they have against Trump?

The debates are going to be must-watch-TV!

[grania]

Gosh, has Macy’s lost any business lately?

[Timber Rattler]

Priebus is undoubtedly talking out of both sides of his mouth, as usual.

[uncitizen]

Trumps claim was that shortly before the Macy’s announcement the CEO told him (on the phone or golf course I’m not sure) that his hand was being forced.....whether the CEOs claim is true or not, who knows.

[uncitizen]

Would anyone go out of their way TO shop at Macy’s because of this? If anything, the affect would be negative, wouldn’t it?

“Also, so far, Trump is shining light on some issues the GOP elites and leadership would prefer to be ignored, but Trump’s position on those issues is resonating in fly-over country.”

Well, I’m not in “fly-over country,” and he’s resonating with me! I must admit, I wasn’t too encouraged when Trump announced, but since that time, he’s done a lot to change my thinking about his candidacy.

[TomGuy]

but since that time, he’s done a lot to change my thinking about his candidacy

Similar with me. I never watched his Apprentice, etc.

Now, I just hope he is in for the long haul.

[vette6387]

“Gosh, has Macy’s lost any business lately?”

Well, if they have, it’s been more than “made up for” by all those “high income” Mexican immigrants. You know, all of them who sneak into our country have net worths like Carlos Slim! Everyone wit a brain needs to drop Macy’s an e-mail to say “adios,” because all these jerks who run these businesses care about is their bottom line.

[TLI]

Cruz/Lee

.

[SamAdams76]

Trump knows how to use Twitter to cut through the BS and bypass the media spin.

Other Republican candidates appear to be utterly clueless about the power of social media to get their message out.

[grania]

because all these businesses care about their bottom line

Really. What were they thinking, alienating stable, hard-working US citizens with decent incomes? Trying to impress WalMart shoppers?

FWIW, a major competitor was selling their highest quality women's clothing online for 50% off this weekend. Vultures are circling?

[SgtHooper]

With The Donald as press secretary!!! Now wouldn’t that be fun to have Trump’s input on a daily basis dealing with the scum media.
