Discussion: Trump Says He Was Serious About Building Border Wall: 'I Don't Kid'

I’ve noted over the years that someone who keeps repeating themselves on what they believe or said, as Trump did above, does so since down deep they don’t think the audience or receiver believes them at all. Trump does this all the time, betraying a deep-seated fear he’s not being taken seriously.

Just sayin…

Honestly, I still cringe when I see the phrase, “President Donald Trump”.

Not sure how many people were I n the room, but the applause line responses were pretty tepid. I guess he forgot to bring his claque.

Whenever he was caught saying something venal, he said ‘I was kidding. Jeez, can’t you guy take a joke?’
But now he says that he doesn’t kid. What gives, Donald?

"A lot of people say, oh, oh, Trump was only kidding with the wall. I wasn’t kidding. I don’t kid. I don’t kid," Trump said. "I watched this and they say I was kidding. No, I don’t kid.

​DONALD J. TRUMP STATEMENT ON PREVENTING MUSLIM IMMIGRATION

(New York, NY) December 7th, 2015, – Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on. According to Pew Research, among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Most recently, a poll from the Center for Security Policy released data showing “25% of those polled agreed that violence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad”

“It will be a real wall, and a lot of things will happen very positively for your cities, your states, believe me,” Trump said.

Great sentence.

Depends on which way the (political) wind is blowing.

At some point this will get old even for the Goopers. Until then, they’re just buttoning up and enjoying the ride.

I love this especially because, according to reports, WaPo is one of the papers whose headlines he actually does scan, looking for stuff about himself.

(Note, I wrote “scans headlines” not “reads”…we all know he doesn’t read…)

What does this even mean? More verbal diarrhea from Trump.

When Donnie gets booted from office and nobody wants to play with him anymore, he can get a side job writing blurbs for Cheezburger.

Because he very consistently tells people what he thinks they want to hear. It only seems inconsistent because he tells different audiences different things. In his mind there’s nothing wrong with that.

Oh, Eustace, please don’t do stuff like this to me. I nearly did myself a damage when I fell off my chair laughing.

Electoral College elected him because he does not kid. He is a man of his word. You can see it all in his tax returns or each of his marriages.
