And that is what Trump is doing - building his personal empire. What a turnoff.
Thank you. I realize most around here, couldn't care less regarding civility. You, are a rare breed.

That was no slip. And, it brings in question, character?!! .

It makes people wonder, who does he think he is? Seriously, lately, Trump acts like he thinks he can do no wrong. That attitude gives people "pause."

I mean, if he said, "That's BS" ...we could live with that. But, it is Un-Presidential, for that nasty term to be used, publicly.

I seem to recall a June 8, 2010 interview with Matt Lauer, when Obama said he wanted to find out "whose ass to kick" (regarding the BP oil spill). Very presidential.

Obama also called Kanye West a "jackass".

Harry Truman called Gen. Douglas MacArthur a "dumb son of a *****". That's just one quote from "Give 'em hell Harry".

Lyndon Johnson described the difference between a Senator and a Representative as the "difference between chicken salad and chicken s**t". There's more, if you'd care research.

Nixon described San Franciscans as "f*gs and decorators".

And remember when Joe Biden called the ACA a "Big f***in' deal"?

Just examples off the top of my head. Google "Presidential Profanity" when you have time.

Touchy dem lovers "aren't ya's"?

IMO:

Mr. Trump speaks like many to most people - he's real like him or not.

Don't think that within the House and Senate members don't speak like that and cuss? Think again!

None of his lingo will hurt his bid for POTUS, in fact it may cement it again because he's real and speaks like most people or what they're thinking and don't say which resonates "far and wide".

Trump's "That's Bullsh*t" remark, yesterday, is far worse than the other examples you mentioned.

And, is a key reason that Ted Cruz has become a favorite with Evangelicans, as well as many others, who give pause at Trump's ignorant, foolish type talk.

And, we are not looking to Elect some vulgar schoolyard Brat. Enough of them as it is.

As for you, sir, Forum rules prevent me from a desire to cut loose at your absurd, ignorant statement.
Actually marino760 has a legitimate point.
Many kids do say and act with an attitude OF total disregard to adults. Do you think just because you are something. Everyone else is that something also. Certainly not everyone is an Evangelical.
One of the great things about this country is you can protect yourself and live in a bubble of your own making. But if you escape that bubble and get out in various communities you will see that the world is different than it was in your own head.
There is nothing Trump can say that is more vulgar, trashy, or profane that what the politicians have done over the last 40 years.

What an absurd thing to get indignant over. Trump's plain talk, off the cuff and from the heart beats carefully scripted and rehearsed stump speeches every time....even if a little salty at times.

OP, you must live in a bubble if the word "bulls****" is so shocking to you. Every day I hear much worse, in public and on TV. Grow up.

I am not a Lib, pal. And decency and Values still are a foremost issue with the majority of Conservatives.

Trump constantly....brings his values in question....using offensive terms like "bullsh*t"
