    Not being able to handle people who think differently as you is even more pathetic. Not everyone is like Sanders, who rolls over as soon as a brown person raises there voice.

    I was fully confident this guy was a joke but he really seems to have a very devoted cult following that is troubling. I still don't think he even gets the Republican nomination, but that he has any following at all is not a great thing.

    It's so funny how these President Trump haters call him a joke and put a negative spin on everything he does and says yet they can't seem to stop talking about him, nor can they explain factually what is so bad about him, instead they just call him a racist based on nothing credible or a sexist because he's called women names before, etc. What a strange obsession. Keep hatin' though, it's his election to lose and he's just getting started, he only announced he's running a little over a month ago and he's already way ahead of these joke career politicians in the polls.

    President Trump 2016!!

    Every politician has a cult. People were fondling themselves over that picture of Trump with the baby, but hell I saw the same thing when Sanders dropped by in Portland.

    No it's called grace and etiquette. Something that reporter lacked. There's an unwritten rule of press conferences (hell, probably even written) that says you wait your turn until you're called. Speaking out of turn when time is limited just makes you look like a jackass. Trump did the right thing by removing him and giving him a time out until he learned to behave and then invited him back.

    You're a pretty paranoid person. Are you so misinformed and delusional that you think President Trump will turn the US into Nazi Germany or something? Rofl.

    I guess if we're ok with a press that wants to go along with dog and pony shows.

    Totally agree here, you may not like Trump or his policies but at least the guy has a pair. Sanders in the same scenario showed he lacked a spine, more then likely because he was worried he may upset black voters if he "stands up for himself". Obviously Trump is playing up to the conservative fan base, Sanders is doing the exact same thing though, but at least Trump is going to keep his pride intact and stand up for himself during the process.

    President Trump 2016!!
    He has very few actual policy positions. Some of the ones that he has taken have been shown to be impractical or impossible. He has no actual experience with law or governance. He is a multiple time failed businessman. He is a reality TV star. He often says things that are at best culturally insensitive and at worst downright racist. He has displayed a shocking lack of knowledge of the Constitution. He frequently contradicts himself and deflects any negative statement made at him or any question that he isn't prepared to handle with anger, frustration, and derogatory statements. He has no tact whatsoever.

    I really hope trump wins it just for the lulz

    He is a smart man who dominated the industry he was in and became a billionaire. He wouldn't be that bad of a choice for president, harder to corrupt since he already has a shit tonne of money. At the very least he won't be as bad as bush.

    In the video trump handled it masterfully. The reporter was speaking out of line while another reporter was trying to ask a question to trump. Like a boss trump took control of the situation as any presenter or speaker should do. If I was American he'd have my vote and I'm center-right politically

    The dude is literally an exception to "the House always wins"....

    I've never known wealth to make one resistant to corruption.

    The press don't run those shows, and the fact he was screeching about how they can't touch him when they escorted him out was beautiful. It's fine to ask hard questions, but don't act like a child and expect things to go your way. Actions have consequences and it sounds like he needs to learn to deal with that.

    Do you think some guy yelling about Benghazi during a press conference with Obama would be coddled?

    Nope. He can't really do that much damage. He's just a very poor representation of America. No paranoia needed.

    Nice try buck, what a great generalization of a post with no specifics or facts. You're going to have to do better than that. You actually called President Trump a "failed businessman". I think that pretty much sums you up about how much you actually know.

    I think you are the perfect example of what the mainstream media is trying to create.

    I mean if we want to compare interrupting the president to yell about a right wing talking point with interrupting a reality tv star to ask questions about far right wing policies....

    Very poor representation? He's dominating the Republican race and his support is growing by the day, according to the polls he's competitive in the general election as well. He's only been running for a little over a month, imagine how much his support will grow over the next year! Your paranoia is already evident.

    He's getting what? 30-40% of one party with a sky high unfavorable rating among everyone else, even in his own party? The dude is a joke riding gullible idiots for more time in the spotlight that can be parlayed in to money. He's trolling idiots in the GOP base and the GOP has spent so long pandering to them they can't stop it now.
