She smart and yummy. Me likey.

in love with Hurricane Katrina

It is about time the media reported the facts and left politics and their own choices out of reporting. One Reason Trump is leading is the false reporting by the press. It has become so common that they don't even try to hide it anymore. Maybe when a few more of them are caught up in their own lies things will change.

She schooled the George Costanza look-alike.

Pwnt. Totally and completely pwnt. I'm not a Trump person, but I love how he gives a big FU to the media, and Katrina Pierson just pwned that doofus.

Headline doesn't match the video... Just being a media attack bitch doesn't mean you actually win the argument.

She's good at what she does and made a few good points, but she dodged the questions , deflected, and slung as much mud as possible.

That's hardly persuasive to those with doubts and concerns about her candidate.

Where's this proof that American Muslims celebrated after 9/11? Is this for the forgetful who don't remember Muslims were among the casualties?

I seem to remember everyone being united in grief in this country. Those celebrating were in Africa and in Pakistan and Iran and Afghanistan as I recall.

Claiming these "reports" exist is different from producing the "reports" or naming those making the claims. If they exist , where are they? Police calls are recorded. The FBI would have to produce the documentation if it existed.

And, when I think of The Donald's birther nonsense which he has to know was ridiculous as he has lawyers on payroll, this is just the pot calling the kettle black. ( PS remaining birthers... Obama's mother was an American citizen. There would be court documents and employment documents to confirm it if she ever gave up her citizenship. It's that simple.)

I certainly don't want a man who uses slang for sexual organs in public as President.

I questioned his maturity before he's been so crude since he's married this time to someone young enough to be his daughter. But, he's so inappropriate in other ways , it's scary.

Apparently, there are too many in this country that don't know the difference between being politically honest and being an ill mannered ass.

Poor Brian (Bryan?). The Pierson woman is good at her job.

Trump is a cult leader of sorts. No matter what he does, his followers will remain loyal. Compare Edwin Edwards, who was openly proud of the fact that he could get away with anything short of the "live goat or dead boy" scenario. Trump can freely attack the media. If the media fights back Trump will just say "See, I told you!"

But his followers will be out-voted. For the Democrats, it's all about arithmetic. For the Republicans, too. For a centrist like me, it is a grim spectacle.

For too long people have listened to the same old politicians tell the same old lies. Many are afraid to speak up when lied to as they will be called racist. Others are so afraid of not being politically correct.
We need more people running for office that will speak up, without the use of teleprompters. People who will say what they really think instead of just what some people want to hear.
We need politicians who will not run scared every time some minority starts yelling.
Trump is popular because he doesn't sugar coat everything. He answers questions. He stands up to those who attack him. We need politicians with a backbone. Look at what political correctness, cries of racism, and lies have done to the U.S.

Katrina for President.

What's the age of Trump's wife got to do with anything. The Ketchup-Magnate wife of our Secretary of State is 23 years older than his Fonda-lovin ass. Right?

5:05PM, You got to understand. That is different. He is a democrat. They are allowed to do many things normal people are not allowed to do. You need to realize they know what is best for you. You need to set down, shut up, and let them make your decisions for you.

Damn Fish - I have known that you drank the Trump koolaid and have been infactuated with him because he stirs up crap but I did not know you drank the whole pitcher.

This is no smack-down; this is no fight; and there certainly wasn't the result that you indicate in your intro. Katrina is a spokesperson, and evidently a damn good one. You would expect as much from a major campaign. But just because she spews the same old lines that the Donald has been spewing for months and disagrees with a CNN reporter doesn't make this a victory for either side.

Problem is, she continued the same b/s that the Donald has been saying regardless of whether it is true or not, and keeps his minions happy by telling them what they want to hear without letting facts get into his way. Its easy to bitch back when your answers don't have to be correct, just disagreeable. Hell - you ought to be quite used to that - you read it regularly as you put up these comments.

Make Mine Hunt...you have math issues. She was born in 1938 and he was born in 1943. That's a 5 year difference.

Trump was born in 1946 and his current wife was born in 1973 ... , that's a 27 years age difference. Trump's oldest son is only 4 years older than this step mother.

I wonder how Trump would have felt if Ivanka at 16 has been dating a guy 43 who already been married.

And, he brought another child into the world who will not likely have a father as a young man starting out in life. And, his siblings will be his closer to his mother's age than to his age.

Screams sexually immature and self centered to me!

Trump supporter? Me? Haven't decided who I'm voting for. I'm leaning towards a couple but Trump is not one of them.

I think however, we are witnessing a phenomena in progress. Peggy Noonan has consistently nailed this race in her columns over the last six months. People are fed up with the government on both sides. The left thinks it has sold out to wall street and corporate interests, the right thinks it has sold out to globalist fascists who are trying to take away all of our freedoms.

Fewer people think there is true accountability in government anymore. Obama's people completely botch the rollout of Obamacare. No one is fired. IRS commissioner sicks her minions on conservatives. No one is held accountable. FEMA botches Katrina response, Bush says Brownie, you are doing a heckuva job. 9/11 happens, no one is fired. Our ambassador is killed, the Secretary of State intentionally lies about it being caused by a video and not terrorism. Wars overseas and we still have terrorism at home. Wars not won.

People see all of this and have had it but the elites on both sides wonder why Trump gets attention from voters. Serious attention. They don't understand how cynical and fed-up Americans are. They really don't.

There is one other angle not mentioned. Have we given away our government to Harvard and Yale? Bush, Gore, Clinton, Obama - all Harvard or Yale guys. Look at the Supreme Court. No one really mentions that trend.

If the U.S. is to survive we need to find a person who is not a life long politician or a member of the ruling families. Look at where we are now. The U.S. used to be the best. Not anymore. We are sliding downhill. Think for a minute how fast we will go downhill when we cannot borrow any more money from countries that we see as inferior to us. We as a country have become dead beat parents. We steal from our own children. Does anyone really believe the U.S. will ever pay back a single cent of what we have borrowed? We can't even pay the interest on what we have already borrowed.

KF, I agree that frustration and fear ( aided by the sensationalism and unprofessionalism of the media and "take no prisoners" politics ) have fueled Trump's popularity.

But, the lies have gotten out of control. There is a fake photo shop of what is supposed to be written by Valerie Jarrett in her Stanford Annual. She is supposedly wanting to make America Islamic. It said she is an Iranian Muslim.
The truth is that her maiden name is Bowman. Her family is as American as apple pie.
Her father was a Pathologist that, in the late 50s and early 60s, accepted an opportunity to practice at an Iranian hospital for a few years. I can't remember if Valerie was born in Iran, but she left when she was 5 years old !

Even though she left young, she hated the Ayatollah and has always been a feminist for goodness sakes.

Her crime is being a Democrat serving in the Obama administration.

This is just as egregious and out of control as the awful cartoon about Cruz's daughters and it's a lie that children used in campaign ads have always been fair game.

And, to see these hateful things during Christmas passed along by people who I know are smart, church going Christians breaks my heart.

I sincerely pray that ignorance makes such sins forgivable! I fear politics is putting souls at risk! And, hatefulness during a time that is supposed to be about joy, peace and good will makes it just worse.

Any politician who will use their family in campaign ads should be prepared for the opposition to use the same people in their ads.
