It was Trump himself that used the term "poorly educated"
I don't think Trump supporters are stupid. And I cringed when Cruz hinted that a while back. I just wish more of them could be critical of him from time to time and have a little more skepticism.
THIS IS NOT THE OPINION OF TBR, ONLY MY PERSONAL ONE, THAT DOES NOT INFLUENCE THIS SITE, AS IT DOES AT FR LET'S make sure we get the quote correct, it works best when using it as an argument. I realize you did acknowledge, you didnt think Trump supporters were stupid, but we need to get the quote in context for everyone else, that seems to forget that part.
Donald Trump was very excited in his Nevada victory speech tonight about winning with almost every group.
He said, “We won with highly-educated, we won with poorly educated! I love the poorly educated! We’re the smartest people, we’re the most loyal people.”
poor choice of words, but since Trump is not a polished politician, he does make faux pas, but his heart is in the right place.
I had rather him say that verses a politician, using double speak and we have to wonder what he means.
Yes he does reverse himself, at times, because his mouth, like a lot of us, runs before his brain thinks.
That is what makes him real and not a politician.
LIke it or not, he is honest in what he says. I am at the point myself that it is refreshing to hear someone tell it like it is, even if it is politically incorrect.
It doesn't matter to Trump supporters, what he did in business, because, any of the politicians, have done much worse to move up the ladder. That includes ALL OF THEM.
You can't paint us all with a small brush, because we are a very diverse group, and we are not all conservatives, republicans, democrats or libertarians, but just regular people.
When a candidate, says they will get the fraud out of govt spending, and cut out the fat, from the most egregious parts of govt, that resonates for a larger group of people than the GOP
I am a conservative, but I am not looking for a preacher! I am looking for someone that will get down and dirty with our enemies and kick their asses.
I have watched Trump for many years, and since he was a younger business man, he has said, he could fix this country.
Call me what you want, but I believe him. He has been right over the years on everything that has gone wrong, before it happened.
He is a rare creature.
He is not a liberal. He is a Capitalist, which in itself, nullifies him being a liberal.
He passionately wants us to be the greatest country in the world again.
He doesnt need to do this.
He could live the rest of his life, rich and happy, while our country turns into a socialist haven for more, nefarious politicians lining their pockets with our money.
YOu need to think a minute... He is not wanting absolute power. That is a mem put out by his detractors.
He is not the establishment. The establishment are the ones that make money off the lobbyists that greased palms.
Trump has already told us, that he played the game as did others , but he knows it has caused us, along with Obama, Bush and Clinton to be in the shape we are in now.
He never said, he didnt profit from all these regimes. He told us all what was going on.
You can think of him what you want, but I can see a basically good person, that really wants to help us establish,our place on top again.
I dont dislike Ted Cruz, but I dont think he can do it.
Trump knows how to play the game to get what he/we want.
While Ted is a noble man,
He still thinks, it is all about his honorable, ideas. I commend him for that.
You can disagree with me, and I have no problem with that. Everyone has an opinion.
I am only telling you what I know the trump supporters want.
There is no need and telling us what terrible things he did 25 years ago, no one cares.
We know that right now, he is serious about saving our country.
He has an awesome family, and they would not go down a path, to ruin, if he was what the old media, say he is.
These are great kids, and know their dad is special.
Whether or not he was an ogre, in the past, he is not that person now.
I know most of you won't agree, and that is fine,
but we all need to get together to beat Hillary.
I will do my part if Ted, does prevail, and I will work hard for him.
But I would prefer, he and Trump make up and run together, but sadly I think that ship sailed.
All the Trump supporters here will vote for Cruz, because we care about the republic, and supreme court first.
What the rest of you do, us up to you and your conscience and that is tota.lly acceptable to us.
We are all AMERICANS wanting the best for our country, we just have a different idea on how to do it. But we are all still on the same side.
I said all this to explain how we feel, but to also let everyone understand that we can all work together, after the primary for the greater good of the country, regardless of the outcome.
This post is not meant to be debated, only to express the reason why.
We are all in this together, whether some of you believe it or not, and I do hope we can all stay friends, and realize the dems are the problems, not each other.
