Many people are sick of the media.. distorting words and dictating what was said and what Trump meant.. I heard many different versions of what Trump said.. they have done that to Ben Carson as well, over and over and over..
yeah, what upset me more is the Veteran they interviewed who didn't understand what Trump meant...and said, he might not vote for Trump now....

Trump did not attack Veterans, he attacked McCain, and yeah, McCain made me sick, when I saw him do that as well....and yes, what has he done for Veterans?



and count me in, the media is trash any more....they have an agenda, what better way to brainwash people....over 1/2 the things that we should know, we are not told....

And as for what he said about McCain...oh, I think the way it came off at first was exactly what he thinks of McCain's war record. It was his attempt to clean it up directly afterward that was the BS part. He knew he stepped in it when he got booed and tried to walk it back.
well I will tell you this, I'm sick and tired of those so called politicians who WE PAY, that do nothing for us or America....they're turning America in to a cesspool. We are not number 1 in anything any longer....our infostructure is falling apart, which BTW, in his campaign speech, Bill Clinton Promised to address and never did....they all lie, they're all crooked and I'm sick of them....all of them....they're a bunch of goons, working for Corporations.

the thing with Trump is, he won't be owned by anyone....and he's got an investment he wants to protect, and pass onto his children and grand children....and that is the main reason I like him....I don't agree with the way he talks....but I don't agree with Obama's arrogance, and I hated that smerck on Bush's face all the time....they're a bunch of goons...who don't care about the corruption they've made....and its our fault for voting them in....

Look who won.
We want The Trump!

So far he's the only one who addresses all the crap. I don't know what he'll do but at least he won't just sit there like the rest of them. While their all so afraid of what moves to make next, The Trump is all over the issues without apologizing.
I don't care what he does, just as long as he does something. I sick of pandering.

Great post, PoppySead

You, in a down-to-Earth manner, are a Captain of the Grass Roots voters. We are the majority...and have been Surprisingly Surprised that there is Finally a person who's speaking the stuff we've wanted to hear...but thought we'd never hear.

Have you read the entire poll giving the 24% number?

If you read the entire poll, the big picture becomes much more clear.

"If Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination for president would you definitely vote for him in the general election for president in 2016, would you consider voting for him or would you definitely not vote for him?" 62% definitely would not. This was before the anti POW comments.

Everybody, I mean everybody, talks a great game when they campaign. A lot of wonderful soundbites. Remember that Muslim community organizer from Kenya? No Red States, No Blue States, Only United States of America . . . . yah.

The fact of the matters is, in the unlikely scenario that Mr. Trump gets the GOP nomination and then wins the general election, the Senate will flip to the Democrats in 2016 according to the experts. And even if it didn't, GOP won't have enough votes for a cloture and therefore Mr. Trump would be facing the same structural gridlock that Obama faced after 2010. He will get nothing done. American politics are so f'ed up.

I do agree with you in this age of twitter, and cell phones, you have one time to get it right then the vultures pounce, and it goes for dems and repubs.
I don't feel he owes anyone any explaination about his religion....that is personal...and that is what he should have told her...no body's business....and doesn't have anything to do with him being a president.....

I'm not real religious but do own faith....

but yes, I really wish he'd invest in a coach...but he won't.

If he was sneaky and slimy like the rest of them, he'd be talking in a soft voice, not bashing anyone, but he is in fact, right out there with what he thinks, only problem is, he doesn't understand, that people don't understand what he is really saying....for instance....McCain....
He should have said, "I don't like the man, hes let a lot of people down, and even worse has done nothing for Veteran, and him being a veteran himself, I do not call that being a war hero.

But the media will paint him badly b/c they are owned by corporations.

Trump's criticism wasn't specific, it was categorical against ALL POWs. He's a sick jerk and it's beyond obvious by now that this Hillary supporter's primary motivation is to sabotage the GOP as much and for as long as he can.

Yep! It was nice to see some not equate being a war hero with actually doing something for the troops. What troop today that's being poorly treated thinks that all John has to do is state he's a hero and they magically get what they need. Being a hero doesn't fix the medical care they get, or the fact that some are homeless.

"Aw, are you suffering, well I'm here and was a hero ya know." "Great, got some food?" "No, but I was captured ya know, so I understand you."
