The Dallas Morning News endorses its first Democrat for president since World War II, says Trump's not a real Republican, and they know 'em when they see 'em.

Actually your article notes that it did not endorse Clinton - they didn't even mention her. And that's leaving aside how this is a re-post of how I already more accurately described their op-ed. ;)

Well he's certainly not a conservative.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Alright then. That's a new and different development.

What a hypocrite. What right does he have running for the POTUS himself if he holds this against her. Oh wait.  :rolleyes:

Dear, we all know you are a bit touched in the head. No need to demonstrate it all the time. :)

QuoteSo has the scandal run its course?
Unlikely. Huffington Post disclosed late Tuesday that Trump subsequently allowed Bondi to use his sumptuous Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach for a $3,000-a-head re-election fundraiser in March 2014, just months after she dropped the fraud probe. The new revelation raises further questions over whether Trump was thanking Bondi, and could weaken his own line of attack against Clinton over the sourcing of her own campaign donations.

Well he's certainly not a conservative.

I wish I could agree with that, but I think he's actually sort of his own brand of populist conservative.  Pretty much the opposite of a Rand Paul conservative.

Also extremely disingenuous and dishonest in the use of the soundbites on the nuclear issue.  (e.g, the "I think — I think, for me, nuclear is just the power, the devastation is very important to me." quote was clearly stressing its importance as an issue, not a "nukes are cool" line as the ad implies).

Maybe . . . if you read the entire exchange in its full context, the only thing that is clear is that Trump is completely incoherent.  It's impossible to figure what he is trying to say or even if he is trying to say anything at all other than flailing about trying to dodge a question wasn't ready to answer.
