Donald Trump: If Ben Carson hosted ‘SNL’ nobody would watch
Yahoo Political News ^ | 11/5 | Matt Bai

Posted on 11/05/2015 8:13:49 AM PST by TangledUpInBlue

Donald Trump is prepping for his upcoming role as host of “Saturday Night Live” the only way he knows how: by boasting about his ratings — and insulting his Republican opponents.

The real estate mogul, who was replaced as host of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice” following his controversial comments about Mexican immigrants, says it’s no surprise NBC asked him to host “SNL.”

“You’re never at war when you get great ratings,” Trump said Wednesday on CNN’s “New Day.” “Nobody gets ratings like me.”

You know, at some point The Donald is going to have to rise up above these petty insults and act, well...like he's above all the minutia and bickering.

He'd do well to realize that like the Electoral College - this isn't a popularity contest.

+1

Not only that...if he wins the nomination does he expect to gain Carson’s supporters by constantly sand bagging him?

This kind of continuing personal insults against Carson are just crude and uncalled for. Trump is only hurting himself by engaging in them.

Im a supporter but getting less so. Trumps big NYC mouth isnt doing him any good. Why attack allies? Trump has plenty of FOLLOWERS but getting fewer supporters. His big mouth will let a lot of decent folks down.

According to Jackie Mason, the viewers might be asleep with Carson.

Jackie Mason: Ben Carson ‘looks like he’s falling asleep’
WND ^ | 9/28/2015 | WND
Posted on 11/4/2015, 5:44:25 PM by WilliamIII

Comedian and longtime conservative Jackie Mason sounded off on the Republican presidential field in a radio interview Sunday, jesting Ben Carson looks like he is falling asleep and brilliant Carly Fiorina may just be too cerebral.

On Carson, Mason quipped: Every time you see him, he looks like he either fell asleep or he is trying to fall asleep. Everybody else is looking for a job. He looks like he is looking for a place to lie down for an hour.

I’m a Trump supporter but he’s been breaking Reagan’s commandment way too often lately. Stop the petty sniping Donald— Carson is not the threat to America.

Truth is if you read the article, Carson attacked trump for his apppearance on the Show.
So, Trump hit back. But you wouldn’t know this unless you read the article.

Trump demonstrating how classless he is. Just par for the course.

This is part of why Trump will not be the nominee. Yes, many people find this refreshing and amusing at first, but eventually the people who vote in GOP primaries will have grown tired of it.

Sorry but this is war. The GOP has spent the past few decades nominating amiable nice guys who only serve as doormats when - if - they get into office. If they aren't losing to "cooler" saxophone playing womanizers and grinning community organizers, then they are busy crossing the aisle and submitting themselves to ridicule and derision.

It's time we sent a junkyard dog to Washington to run the low life out and set us back on the right path.

I’ve always been a tepid supporter. If he chooses Cruz as his running mate, I will not have to hold my nose to vote for him.
