I agree with you on that that but Trump is not the right guy in my
opinion. To borrow your metaphor, his wake is filled with debris,
both personal and professional. Google up the story of Marvin B.
Roffman if you want to get an unvarnished glimpse of Trump's character
and his methods.

Roffman was a securities analyst who wrote an accurate and prescient
report on the negative outlook for Trump's casino in Atlantic City.
Trump successfully pressured Roffman's employer into firing him. Is
that really the kind of guy you want leading the country?



I cannot excuse that assuming the analyst was doing his job and did it
honestly and accurately. Pure revengeful bully tactics.

The Donald is a strange Duck though. He readily admits to participating
in quid pro quo arrangements and, with the same breath, admits that it's
wrong.

I question Wayne's assertion that Trump has no
scruples.

Depends on your definition of "scruples."
He's a birther. A birther.
So he's either insane, or doesn't believe what he's
been saying.
He'll have to own up, retract and apologize for his
birther claims to get my vote.
Otherwise I consider him insane and can't vote for
him.
The "press" should be hitting him hard on that
instead of wearing kid gloves.
I have no idea why they aren't on that like flies on
****. But they'll get there eventually.



They tried. His response? "I don't want to talk about that" . Next
question?

Too bad.
I don't give a **** that he doesn't want to talk
about it. He's still a birther, until he recants.
It's inexcusable to have that on your rap sheet.
Apologize Trump. Or get lost.
I'm not sure an apology will suffice, so I can't take
a vow to forgive him if he apologizes.
I'm going to leave the "no vote" option open.
Depends on whether he treats me fairly.
I get to decide on that.



Trump has picked up a few fans in rec.boats. No surprise.

Isn't "birther" an old story. As Hillary says, what difference does it
make?
Look at the stupid things he says he wants to do, not the dumb stuff
he said a few years ago.

Everyone but The Donald acknowledged that the report was both honest
and accurate. As predicted, Trump's casino went bankrupt and left a
lot of people holding the bag. Roffman was eventually awarded $750K
in damages for his unwarranted termination.

The Donald is a strange Duck though. He readily admits to participating
in quid pro quo arrangements and, with the same breath, admits that it's

He is a strange SOB and also a scumbag in my opinion. I would not be
at all comfortable with him in the Whitehouse.

You can get a measure of a man by the cliches - or
non-sequiturs - he spouts. That was to you, BTW.
Birthers are a special category; they are either
fantasists, liars, or racists. Take your pick, of
any or all. Of course I spit on them.
It won't go away until he owns up to what he is/was,
and recants.

Look at the stupid things he says he wants to do, not the dumb stuff
he said a few years ago.

He hasn't said anything. He's just setting up the
starting terms of negotiations. It's all negotiable.
But not his status as an avowed birther.

I think you should email him and let him know how you feel. Personally,
I don't give a .... .

Birther replaces muslim. Is that such a bad trade?

It sounds like any number of presidents past and present along with a
few of the candidates ... both of the women.

I would rather have a president that is bias economically, rather that
racially.

Well then, Little ****, you're pretty much ****ed, because all the
Repugnant wannabes are "bias economically," and most are "bias racially."

Better stay home on election day, eh?
