The individual who vows to stare down Russian strongman Vladimir Putin while making America “great again”Ā appears to haveĀ come down with a case of the quivers.
Donald J. Trump’s tough talk about how he’ll make Mexico pay for the wall, how he’ll take the oil from the Islamic State and how he’ll make Russia toe the line around the world has backed out of a debate with several other Republican presidential candidates.
His reason? Well, he hasn’t exactly told us.
He calls one of the debate moderators, Fox News’ Megyn Kelly a “lightweight.” He said she doesn’t like him and then adds that he doesn’t like her, either.
Trump said Kelly was mean to him in that first Fox-sponsored debate when she asked about his views of women.
Trump’s latest stunt has demonstrated beyond a doubt — as he’s done so many times before — that he is totally, utterly and categorically unfit to become the next Leader of the Free World.
How on God’s Earth do we take this guy seriously? I don’t, but hey, that’s no surprise. What still amazesĀ me, though, is that others continue to tell those ubiquitous pollsters how much they love and adore this clown who’s so willing to stick it in the eye of those who adhere to that dreaded “political correctness.”
But he just can’t bring himself to stand in front of an American broadcast journalist and answer tough questions.
Vlad Putin, wherever he is today, is likely laughing out loud . . . at Trump.
