Feel like his press releases need like... an airhorn button.
Like you finish reading it and slam it a couple times.
BEW BEW BEW BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW

I'm going to have to get an airhorn for the debates.
 
actually hillary is colluding with trump on this plan, so all those people were right- but it's actually because of all the people that made fun of her after the monica lewinsky scandal and all the people who say she isn't personable while simultaneously deriding any time her personality shines through in any way as pandering

but she's going to betray him and absorb all of the humor in the country into herself to become the most charismatic person of all time

ha, a good man i am when it comes to this
 
Seeing how badly he polls with women and minorities, he is going to be destroyed in the GE



Like his hands

 
He somehow managed to make the likes of Ted Cruz and Lindsay Graham even slightly sympathetic. Well done, Don.
 
I fully expect Trump to incite a civil war if he loses the GE. Thin-skinned doesn't even begin to describe this guy.
 
I had no idea Lindsey Graham was in charge of our military operations ...
Remember, Trump is also a greater tactician than anyone else in the US right now. Why doesn't everyone just use his solution of nuking the area, or killing the families of their enemies?
 
What a loon. I actually have some respect for Graham now. He has been one of the most vocal about Trump being unfit for being President.
 
In Trump rally news:

- Whined about protesters for what felt like ages
- A group of women started screaming something, to which he replied "FRIEND OR FOE?!" and then decided FOE because "those sound like weak voices" and yells "GET THEM THE HELL OUTTA HERE"
- Talks about how his supporters will be tired of winning soon, but that he will keep winning anyways

What a pivot!!!
 
Even if Trump did not have serious ethical, strategic and intellectual concerns as a candidate, he simply does not have the thick skin required to be President. The emotional insecurity is as scary as everything else.

Yep, that sounds about like a Trump rally. Only thing missing is a fight breaking out.
 
trump probably thought everybody would fall in line as soon as he won the nomination. he needs a united front in order to stand any kind of chance and they are denying this to him at the moment.
 
And they're doing this to themselves! We talk about Trump's hubris but these clowns and their handling of an insurgent candidate has been on an absurd level. They have no idea what to do with someone who doesn't fall in line.

I don't think they're all taking talking points on this, they're each individual politicians and have some of their own positions.

Lindsey Graham has been a huge proponent of Amnesty and embracing illegal immigrants. He correctly thinks it's really important to the GOP future nationally that we don't work hard to alienate Hispanics. I'm not surprised at all that he's not getting behind Trump.

Graham also dropped out even before Iowa so the whole thing about getting 1% of South Carolina votes seems pretty meaningless anyway. He wasn't even in the race when he got that 1%. Edit: also Trump got 32.5% and says "nearly 40%" in his screed. Seriously?
 
-Mr Trump is the going to be the nominee
-Graham is continuing to shit talk him (even though he signed the pledge)
-DJT responds with a statement highlighting how Graham doesn't matter
-Anti-Trump forces on gaf get it assways...again!
 
He's going to push South Carolina into play. The South Carolina GOP has mixed feelings about Lindsey Graham but ultimately he's one of their own and he has the most capable political machine of any politician in the state (to the point where the Tea Party has never dared mount a real primary challenge despite his calling out their extreme right policies).

This also comes on the heels of him talking shit about Nikki Haley, who South Carolina is infatuated with at the moment. If both Graham and Haley publicly suggest a non-vote/3rd party vote at the top of the ticket in November it is going to do serious damage to Trump in a state that Clinton has some serious ground game already built up in.

Close polling as we get close is only going to energize Dems in the state, especially minority Dems who've been taking it on the chin in SC for decades and will get hyped like nothing else if the state is poised on flipping.

This is my dream scenario here. Trump does so poorly that several southern states flip and the GOP takes a massive credibility hit while at the same time emboldening previously downtrodden southern Dems. It will make effectively gerrymanding districts much, much harder.

Republicans fighting = "Anti-Trump forces on gaf get it assways...again!'''

Am i mad or have none of you seen a decent diss in your lives

This is way outside the typical diplomatic response of someone who is going to be talking and working with other world leaders.
 
No, he's not pivoting to the center at all. This is the same man who thanked Jerry Falwell Jr. in his speech on Tuesday.

Donald Trump insults people who either insult him or stand in his way. He's been chumming it up with Republicans for a few weeks, and making promises that go against his campaign.


Aside from his entertaining speeches, his ideology falls very much in line with both the GOP and the Tea Party.
