Trump brings a refreshing (new/forgotten) approach to the campaign trail. He speaks his mind and doesn't recant from the bashing of biased media clowns. Now do we agree with him about everything? Certainly not. But his truthfulness and how he speaks his mind is unique.

Again. Speaking your mind doesn't qualify you to be president. In fact, the fact that Trump speaks what's on his mind is the reason I can't vote for him, I don't like what's on his mind.

True, but he has other qualifications, such as his business successes (in terms of the economy) and his pride in his country (unlike Obama). He wouldn't let anyone throw America around and he wouldn't let a bunch of ragtag Iranians dictate to us. On top of it all, he's certainly a LOT more qualified than Obama (who had no practical experience of any value at all when elected) so all this talk of "qualified" is a bit ridiculous. (In addition, what most of us are saying is that regardless of his eligibility to be president he is still shining a limelight on very important issues that others won't speak about.)

Now, nobody here is saying that he will make a great president, amongst the ranks of Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln. What we are saying is that he won't be in the ranks of Carter and Obama and that given the perilous circumstances in which this country (and political process) is in he'd be far from the worst we can get (and could do some great things). I for one, would much rather see Cruz in office, but Trump is still important for bringing to the forefront issues that the liberal media wants to suppress.

It's unfortunate that in today's society someone who sticks to his guns (regardless of his position) is called a "bully". In this case it's simply a way of discrediting the man while ignoring the message.

Go cry me a river. Did I ever call you a bully for sticking to your positions? Sticking to his positions and being a bully have nothing in common.

How can someone that wants a R in the WH even give this guy the time of day? Does anyone believe he is helping the Republican party?

What are you smoking. You have any idea how many young men and women would needlessly died because in your words he does not back down? You better hope he doesn't flip flop on Israel like he has on other issues.

I mean she is smoking hot and flaunts it. I was wondering what form of Judaism she converted to?

He is probably the only one who is absolutely unelectable and would lose even to Hillary or Bernie

Old-fashioned salted popcorn only. Caramelized popcorn hurts the teeth.

lol this requires its own thread. She officially converted to Orthodox Judaism, but I have doubts about the authenticity and validity of the conversion, as authentic Jewish conversion requires a hell of a lot of effort and committment, not just sprinkling water and declaring that you are now converted.

That's what boggles my mind the most here. For a crowd that votes largely R you'd think people here would get it...

You realize you are questioning the Rabbi who did the conversion, right? And every other conversion he's done for that matter. That's quite the accusation.

I met her and her husband. They came across as very down to earth, sincere individuals who care deeply about their religious practice.

I stated very clearly that I have my doubts. If you know who the rabbi is, please share.

The best way I can describe the way she dresses is "provocative." Is this allowed?

Apparently some MO rabbis are OK with this.

And NO, I did not say ALL MO rabbis, I said SOME.
