Trump plays media

[Drich]

Donald Trump played the Mainstream Media like a Charlie Daniels fiddle today -- and it was music to my ears.
He was holding court inside his brand new Washington, D.C. hotel while breathless reporters and drooling anchors jumped into wall-to-wall coverage -- waiting to hear Trump apologize.
And he kept them waiting and waiting and waiting.
Reporters thought he was going to launch into a tearful, soul-searching mea-culpa over President Obama's birth certificate.
But it turned out - he resolved the issue lickety-split.
"Hillary Clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy. I finished it,” Trump said. "President Barack Obama was born in the United States, period. Now we all want to get back to making America strong and great again.”
Mr. Trump was referencing a memorandum written by Mark Penn, her chief strategist at the time.

... and how did they do that? I want to see exactly where Clinton's campaign asserted Obama wasn't born in the US.

See the above post from the huffington post

How can you not respect a man like this?

Seriously? I can think of ten reasons in less than as many seconds.

So do it:

8:
9:
10:
(do try and limit the ad hom/ad hoc down to just one may two of the ten. I know asking you to completely abstain would be too much)

Stunning? Really? Ask Romney how many military endorsements he had. And what documented proof? Really. Show us.

What it is proof of is Clinton's claim that she has the support of our military, and trump is unfit to lead our military is another outright lie.

Nothing Trump does is for any other purpose than to benefit himself.

Two questions, how does this differ from what clinton does?
2, what if in office trump places himself in a position that what benefits him greatly benefits this nation first?

Evidence Trump has a billion-dollar empire. Oh, right. You can't possibly prove that because the man refuses to release his tax returns.

Don't have a business that has ever been audited by the IRS huh?? The goal is for your deductions to stick and you not to have to pay anymore than you already have. When they come they come hard and scrutinize everything. I can only imagine for someone like trump who has an 18,000 page return, there is a team looking at his holdings and spending. Now durning this return the IRS can go back at any point and re evaluate even place a freeze on all your assets if they suspect wrong doing.

Now if clinton has two working synapses she will hire her own accountant team and flood the media with suspected inproperity, which could tank trumps business.

Now, if he waits till the audit is over... they can't ever go back and re-audit him again.

Maybe you would like a leader who bows to peer pressure that jepodizes everything he or she is incharge of.. but to me this would be a deal breaker. He is doing the right thing even if the 'in crowd' demands other wise. The fact that he can stand up to the media and tell the f-u makes me like him that much more. What does clinton do under media scrutiny? she waits 12 hours to try and come up with a story that will allow her to be seen in the best light.

When will they get, allowing your enemy to think himself smarter than you is the cornerstone philosophy in the art of war? When is the last time we had a president savvy and confident enough to play to his opponent preconceived ideas about him, and let things go to the time he can benefit?

When has Trump done any of this?

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I'm no Clinton fangirl, but I'd vote for my left toe before I'd vote for that slimy, self-serving buffoon.
