Really. Who are these people that should be apologizing? If anything, UKTruth was the one who called a handicapped person an idiot. The rest of us are just hanging out here peacefully.

Im mentally challenged a bit to and even I thought the man was a idiot. Ask stupid questions get stupid answers.

Ah, a justification for hatred as a reaction or retaliation. I think Trump used to use that line too. Very similar journeys it seems, so it's possible the people you speak of are on the same path, just a bit further back.

Or it's all just an act and they are at the same spot.

It's possible to fight without hatred and Trump seems to be showing the way.. in fact it's often better to do so as we can see from his actions in Louisiana today.

What's with the glorification? He's a politician running for office.

We'll see I guess.

Can we get you diehards to admit hypocrisy and that you're voting Trump for anyone but Hillary and that he's actually a terrible candidate?

Absolutely, once you can explain WHY he's a terrible candidate.

I actually did explain in my original post. You guys are mesmerized by him and you drink the koolaid so no matter what he does you think it's the right decision, even diametrically opposed viewpoints and contradictions.

The kind of temperament you want as president is not an extremely thin skinned person who feels the need to react to every sleight, real or imagined. You don't want a president to mock a disabled person by putting his arms to his chest in a way that is obviously intentionally designed to denigrate, regardless of whether he eventually apologizes for it. It shows a tremendous lack of judgment and you simply should not be president if you feel the need to go so low towards someone every time you get criticism. You'll be getting a lot of it as president no matter what and it can't affect your rationality and composure. It got to Nixon and look what happened.

You don't want a candidate to ask a foreign nation to spy on an opposing candidate regardless of how #ty she is, especially when your campaign manager is tied to undisclosed amounts of money in the millions received from the Russian puppet Yanukovych, it's extremely dirty - Clinton level dirty, and if you weren't hypnotized by the guy you would realize it.

He'll have to ignore childish and hateful people who continue to insult and accept that they know no better. Hopefully he can educate them over time.

Oh he'll educate childish and hateful people over time alright. He'll show them all exactly what happens when you vote for a tyrant: You don't get rich; you don't get jobs; you don't get a wall; you don't get Mayberry or June Cleaver gardening in her pearls. You get screwed. You get a big, fat, uptown dump taken in your collective Cheerios.

Told you you might be seeing hatred where there is none.

I don't have a problem with Trump. I do have a problem with people placing politicians on pedestals. Trump is nothing special and even if elected he isn't going change anything, at least not significantly.

Great. I don't call people names. See how my way is far more adult? I don't know what else to tell ya. If you can't act mature then we're not operating on the same level and there's no sense in bothering. It's the same reason why people don't take Trump seriously. He's not an adult and will lose simply because of that which is a shame.

Except you already said there was hatred directed towards him and you seem to be voicing the side of the hatred, though you say you don't have a problem with him, which I accept at face value.
I am taking the side of the those that think he is the best (and last) hope for an honest govt, though I have some reservations which I have already expressed a few times.
Call it rejecting the hatred.

You thinking that I am voicing that side of the hatred is what I mean by you seeing what you want.

Nothing wrong with that but in this you are glorifying him and placing him on a pedestal.

He is going to teach people over time about rejecting hate? Do you really not see how cheesy that sounds? He's candidate for POTUS not the next incarnation of Buddha.

There is nothing cheesy about rejecting hate and he's certainly the person who has taken the first step in ending the war of words between two very divided camps....teaching? maybe not... leading... for sure. We'l see if he can keep his message on Clinton, Obama and a little at the media...

There is lots of cheese in thinking Trump is going to do it.

ETA: The point being that he isn't a savior or messiah or anything like that he is just another candidate.

Im blunt and I have no filter at times so if i see someone doing something stupid I am going to call them on it. It is how we learn to change our ways.

That's the spirit. Leading...no. He hasn't actually lead on anything. He said some words and he's been able to keep quiet for a few hours. That's all. Your perception of the events is interesting and I'm not sure how you got that he was leading on anything. He's losing by a lot on every level and this simple admission of regret doesn't change anything.

I am not talking about polls... Trump is leading by setting the example to reject hatred. He's performed the role of a leader by taking the first step. He is hopefully encouraging those that keep spewing hate at him to look inwardly and follow his lead.

I don't really care how you justify insulting other people. It's a quality that I don't have nor care for. Most don't care for it either for obvious reasons. In your mind, you think your way is the right way when everyone is on their own path for reasons you refuse to understand. I'm just glad I had parents who raised me not to say nasty things.

Loaded question.

Almost anything is better than hate but your glorification of Trump is still cheesy, especially after the great Obama hype of 2008.

a reply to: UKTruth

Who's spewing hatred towards him though? I don't know any Trump supporters so all the conversations I hear are behind closed doors and most people just roll their eyes at Trump. I haven't met one person who hates him. I actually like the guy. He just can't be president. Lol. No way. He was good on tv, go back to that.

With Hillary...we KNOW we're going to get screwed. She and her party continually sell us down the river at every turn.

With Trump...we MAY get screwed, we MAY stay the same, or we MAY improve things.

I'm not a gambling man, but this one's pretty easy.....

WTF is it with the false hope? You're gonna get screwed with Trump as well.

Well like I said, just trying to offer the other side to the vitriol from some quarters.
I am still hopeful the hateful will see the error of their ways and follow Trumps lead - we'll just have to wait and see whether they have it within themselves.
