Are the quotes manufactured?

I've see things posted from MSNBC, CNN, Mother Jones, Salon, etc, etc supporting Trump (while conservative sites are smeared for criticizing Trump), so why get so fussy now?

*******************************************************************

Trump is a make believe person - a salesman with manufactured, targeted "principles."

Trump: ["Art of the Deal"]: The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people's fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That's why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular.

I call it truthful hyperbole. It's an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion. - Source

Well we’ve seen this type of machination in his campaign over and over.

Make the big noise with an outrageous statement and “play to peoples fantasies”.

I was a for sure Trump voter a few months ago. But when he said just the other day, “I am capable of changing to be whatever I want to be,” it sent cold chills down my spine.

I’d like a little character and stable, principled conservatism in my candidate, please.

This race for the Republican nomination is getting so stupid that its impossible to make an intelligent choice.
