Do you think people attack Trump's personality too much?

[Aedaz]

Whenever I hear someone attack trump, it's always his personality everyone attacks. They call him racist and all that.

Thing is, I do detest Trump as a person. He's a total jerk. Remember when he made fun of the disabled man?

But I wish people would attack his policy, and not his person. Do you think one's personality is important enough to consider when voting?

[Solar]

I do. They're supposed to represent the best America has to offer. If Trump represents the average American?
Then we don't deserve the top slot, Hell, we don't deserve 7 place.

What policy?

What policy?

Pick one. His policies change weekly. I'm just waiting for him to say "communism has yet to be applied correctly".

And then he'd be accused of plagiarizing Bernie Sanders...that widely-known Democrat (uh huh, uh huh).

Yes, Personality reflects character....what Character does Trump have....an overbearing loudmouth, a bully (personality traits of DICTATORS) yeah he does come up with some funny stuff but mocking people even those who deserve it gets old after a while.

As far as policy goes, I haven't heard much policy from him, just that he is going to build some sort of wall to keep out Illegals.....keeping out illegals and deporting the 15 or so million that are already in the country causing a plethora of social and economic problems is going to take more than a wall no matter how well built.

Literally every "policy" Trump has, is based on what he perceives is a winning populist issue - all he has are "populist issues".  If Trump got everything he's running on in the first 6 months - then what?  Does he return to his roots as a liberal democrat, or become a "Ted Cruz Lite Conservative"?  Maybe he goes Fascist on us, shuts down freedom of speech... who the heck knows? 

Nobody has really vetted Donald Trump, the old or the new version.

Can you post one of these policies?  We slap down his push for minimum wage and universal health care, but that's just regular old Marxist stuff being parroted by a liberal.  He needs to be exposed for dodging the draft and other such behavior.

One of the most common errors in thinking we all make and that is on display in every political election is called ad hominem. Literally translated, this means "to the man."

This fallacy redirects the focus from thinking about the idea to thinking about the person holding the idea.

If you don't agree with Trump, attack his ideas.

It's not exactly difficult.

So what happens when all his so called "Ideas" turnout to be outright lies, that attacking them one by one becomes a moot point?
Then you use all of his claims against him and impugn his character.
Are you saying one can separate the acts of a pedophile from that of the individual?

That clearly hasn't been a successful strategy so far.

Speaking of, is he still going after Bernie and Cruz?  Someone should tell him this is where he pretends to begin running for President.

Bull, just look around at Discuss on any given article, Trumpanzees have all but vanished.
Whether out of embarrassment or their Troll check bounced, they up and quit supporting Trump.

Here's the MAIN IDEA about Trump...  He threw so much crap out there, trying to make stuff stick, but during the acceptance speech, he really, really-really, clearly stated it:  "It's all about Donald".  (size reduced to accurately reflect his stature)

Screw the GOP, he doesn't need them, he could have done just as well as an Independent, Green, whatever party candidate.  He's just_that_good, ask him, he'll tell ya!

Donald -IS- the answer to every problem, job, health care, homeland security, diaper rash - you name it, DONALD TRUMP is the solution.  (unless of course the problem is keeping your wedding VOWS and financial CONTRACTS).  Donald is THE ONLY ONE who can solve our problems - he said it, either you believe it, or you recognize him as a Fascist Dictator wanna-be.


The question was: "Do you think people attack Trump's personality too much?"

Hell no!  They're giving him a free pass & not vetting him!


I gotta say this, it's just been bugging me and wifey. 
Why not bring all 3 WIVES up on stage, instead of pretending this is ONE-BIG-HAPPY-FAMILY.  Go for the Mormon vote, the Big Love, the Blended Family, whatever - it looked like a freak show to us - is this suppose to show us American Family Values?  I don't know ANYONE who would want to aspire to that.  Really, are we alone on this opinion?  I haven't heard or read anything questioning the Trump family values.
