No lie, that's kinda weird.

Until snopes confirms or denies that I don't buy it. It would be a bigger uproar than just mentioned on two websites
And btw, Donald Trump has also virtually killed the political discourse on this site.
Yeah, really. It's going to be a boring election year. I'll still go after Hillary because she is absolutely horrible, but so is Trump. I will say that there is no question the media is going after Trump more aggressively. But he's also putting softballs on a tee for them.
On Sunday Hillary once again lied to the American people about her emails and insulted the mother of a slain Benghazi official by implying that she's a liar. Media could be all over that, but instead Trump has to go barf all over the place about the Khan's and give the media an easy out.
thank you weso1!
Shouldn't they?
I really think Trump doesn't want to win, but just finish close enough to blame the media and the system, which he is already doing.
There is a story out there about Trump calling a major PR person connected with him in the spring of '15 and telling this person that he was gonna run for President but wanted to finish 2nd (in the R nomination, I assume). If this is true, and I can't imagine why it wouldn't be, it would explain everything that has followed.
Trump's latest actions are not from a man really trying to win - Insulting the fire chief, suddenly praising Obama in a major interview, bashing the Gold Star family, lying about the NFL, and even hinting that he won't debate Hillary. He still refuses to release his tax info or create an organized campaign machine, etc. He doesn't want to win, just to make a lot of noise for himself. The idea of actually winning probably scares him to death.
So far, he's played the American people like a violin. His only miscalculation so far is that the Republican candidates were more inept that he thought.

Hillary has been taken pillory-to-post throughout the campaign on a variety of things, but particularly the e-mail scandal. There was constant coverage of that. There was ample coverage of the DNC hack and how that made her and her allies look. During the primary season, every charge made by Sanders elicited an investigative piece from the press. And lest we forget: Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi.
It's not Hillary's fault that Trump manages to say something particularly odd (and sometimes stupid) when he opens his mouth. It just hasn't stuck until now due to the novelty of his candidacy.
I somewhat agree with Runnin in that I don't know how badly Trump really wants to win. I saw the same thing with Ventura in Minnesota. I always believed he wanted to get close enough to legitimize his stance as a critic without having to get into the messy business of governing. Could be the same with Trump.

Until this afternoon I thought "Trump Attacks Baby" was the one headline that would continue to stand as parody.

I’m sure Trump will handle the baby incident with his usual maturity

Wow ....

@Reince
At time when US is newly concerned about terrorist attacks, we can't afford such unprincipled & out-of-touch leadership on world stage
......
seriously thinking about taking the rest of the day off to watch this trainwreck on Twitter,
Let's see if a) Trump makes it out of today or b) (R) just folds it's tent
there is a lot of chatter about (R) rescinding the nomination with a Romney - fill in the blank ticket emerging
which really screws with my prediction that 10-15 of "we" would be Trump voters

No one stood up to him
All of this information Clinton used Trump U, Russian connections,failed business' etc were there
And no one except Mitt Romney had the balls to face him down,call his bluff or at least stand up and say "go 3rd party but we aren't doing this"
Throwing the Univision anchor out of Press Conference, talking about McCain the way he did they all stood there.
None of them will make good POTUS because they lack either backbone or political skill

Trump won't use nuclear weapons unless he has a great reason like a hero soldier's father asks him to read the Constitution.
