The Republican Primary Race Is Filling Up

[T.Lex]

It's... now stay with me here for a sec.... It's as though he's only doing this to benefit himself, and doesn't actually want to be President.

I'd only quibble with the last part. I think he's willing to be president to benefit himself and his family. The rest of us are a distant last place.

And here's the problem

Rather than suck it up, acknowledge a mistake, and deal with it... they go the usual route of denial.

Not about the damn speech, it's about how crappy this campaign manages itself. And this being a reflection of how the idiot would run a country is unappealing.

But let's not kid ourselves. He can't win, so that doesn't matter.

Breaking news, Melania's speech was written by Rick Astley

But...will he run around and hurt me?

I noted that too. I've seen a couple of people speculate that there's a prankster on the staff.

"What she did was use words that are common words," Paul Manafort, explaining away plagiarism in the speech.

Embarrassing.

 

[Cummins513]

And as the world continues its downward spiral we get engulfed in media about a speech that wasn't 100% original.

 

[T.Lex]

They are really overthinking this. Or underthinking it, I guess.

 

[bwframe]

The "Melania plagiarized" foolishness.

Wonder if the haters realize they just might be going too far with the stupid? If that's all they got, we've got this in the bag.

 

[Alpo]

I'm happy that we have one day that the anti-gunners aren't screaming about us.

... you.... do acknowledge the actual concerns here regarding campaign mismanagement, right? It's not always "haters"... there exist real criticisms of this campaign since it's inception.

No one thought he could win the primary...Huffington Post put his campaign in their "entertainment" section...The mainstream media called his campaign "over" every week for six months...

I gather you believe there is no way he is going to win...No one has believed in him but himself and he has been proving he was right for the past 6 months....

Trump is going to be our President...He just is....I am sorry but it is so....

I agree. I think he would like his family to be akin to the Kennedy dynasty.

 

[Cummins513]

I understand why people don't like him but I hope that they see he is still way better than Hillary. Inexperienced/arrogant/sometimes rude, yes. I'll take that over treason though.

CNN learns Trump campaign has no plans to fire anybody on campaign or to take any disciplinary action against anyone for Melania speech.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In the grand scheme of the election, as big of a deal the media is making this, it wont cost Trump a single vote.

It was a failure of many imaginations that people could actually support Trump.

I acknowledge the haters, continually digging for any tiny little thing to exploit and be the first to do it. Doing their best to head us to a Hilary victory, kill the Second Amendment, doom our children to a liberal Supreme Court and allow our borders to flow a liberal voting block that can never be beaten.

Hey, speechwriters cost money, even the ones that come in blister packs prominently displayed at the isle end caps.

This is why you should always check the expiration dates. This guy was what? 8 years past his "best if used by" date?
