Related: About this forumIn private meeting Trump instructs Repubs on hill to only say "great" things about him
It would great if you could say we had an unbelievable meeting. Trump loves us. We love Trump. Its going to be so good. Okay? Trump said, according to a detailed account from a person who attended the meeting. Honestly, if we could say it is great, we have a unified party, Ill tell you what, you are going to see a difference immediately. Thats what Im going to say.
...
If when we leave we could just go out and say, We love Trump, hes going to be great. I love you, were doing great. As a team, we cant be beaten, Trump said. Say great things, because anything you say thats even a little well you know, they magnify it. Just say its great. You gotta say great things. Any little negativity that you have, they are going to blow it up twentyfold. Youve got to be positive.

What? Isn't that how all the great presidents talk?
And he loves the Constitution. He thinks it's....great! When asked about his understanding of Article 1...
I am a constitutionalist. I am going to abide by the Constitution whether its number 1, number 2, number 12, number 9, Trump responded.
There are seven Articles and he's an idiot running for president.
The Speaker after the Say I'm Great Meeting-
I thought he did a great job engaging with our members, and I think our members appreciated it.
Here he is with his tiny, grubby hands on our flag

And it looks like he's copping a feel on that flag.

and she can pardon him for all the Trump University criminal stuff if there is any.

(30,250 posts)3. I sometimes wonder how he's made it this far in life.
He seems to be unsophisticated, his speech is simplistic and uninformed. He received a decent education, didn't he absorb anything of what he was taught? I may disagree with almost every Republican, but I sort of feel bad for them. When confronted with this clown they must have felt horrified that their nominee is a narcissistic simpleton.
