Angry Trump reneges on his promise

[Legion Troll]

Trump has backtracked on his much ballyhooed pledge to support the eventual Republican nominee as he deals with swirling controversy after his campaign manager was charged with assaulting a reporter.

In a television town hall in Milwaukee with CNN on Tuesday night, Trump insisted he had been “treated very unfairly” by the Republican National Committee and the establishment and revoked the commitment he signed in September. Although the Republican frontrunner previously hinted that he might do so, saying the RNC was “in default”, he had never explicitly revoked his commitment until Tuesday.

The statement came as Trump stood by Corey Lewandowski, his embattled campaign manager, who was captured on tape forcibly grabbing a reporter for the right-wing website Breitbart after a press conference.

Trump suggested that the reporter, who had been screened by the secret service in order to be allowed in the candidate’s vicinity, may have been carrying a bomb.

Trump struggled with policy questions. While calling Nato “obsolete,” Trump bemoaned the fact that the international alliance doesn’t deal with terrorism. Nato has taken a lead role in the war in Afghanistan against the Taliban. He also said nuclear proliferation “is going to happen anyway” and seemed comfortable with Japan developing nuclear weapons.

On domestic policy, Trump challenged conservative orthodoxy by stating education and healthcare were two of the three key functions of the federal government along with security. Republicans call for the abolition of the Department of Education as well as repealing Obamacare and severely limiting the federal role in healthcare.

The Republican frontrunner was also chastised for his tone by Anderson Cooper, who compared Trump’s argument to that of a five-year-old, when he defended his jibes towards Ted Cruz’s wife.

I am sure you have a point somewhere. Maybe you are having difficulty making it?

It's news, that's why it's in "Current Events." It just happened today.

That said, I think if there's any point to be made from Trump's reneging on the promise he signed he would keep it is this:

Donald J. Trump, the Serial Liar, won't keep his word. His promises are lies and his oaths are deceptions. Anything he says can only be relied upon to be a base canard with no regard for truth or fact.

Donald J. Trump the Serial Liar cannot be trusted.

I think that pretty much sums it up.

And as I've said before, I say it all without the least fear of suit from Trump the Liar because it's all demonstrably true.

The AssholeTroll left a little out....

Trump Takes Back GOP Loyalty Pledge, Cruz And Kasich Also Back Away

It was killed by the combined efforts of three men, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and John Kasich, all of whom all but confirmed that they would rather leap in front of a speeding train than support each other for president.

Poor AssholeTroll

So, if Trump wins the nomination the Republicans get Trump win, lose or die... and its lose for them no matter what.

If they don't nominate Trump, he takes his ball and runs without them, then they lose anyway.

I left the other three out since they don't have a snowballs' chance in hell of being the GOP nominee. Your frontrunner is like an angry 5-year-old.

Poor BLABO.

As am I.

It's not often the country is treated to a display of petulant whining like we see from the current crop of GOP nominees.

As am I. It's not often the country is treated to a display of petulant whining like we see from the current crop of GOP nominees.

It's unprecedented.

We are witnessing a whiny meltdown of a pack of schoolyard bullies who will burn down their own party if can't get their way.

This was my favorite moment:

Angry Trump reneges on his promise

Reneg.

That used to be the word that was used to describe "shift change at the car wash".

As the years went by, welfare took away the incentive to even do that kind of work.

Now the word is "remex".

The word is "renege".

Are you sore because the car wash hired a Mexican instead of you?

It would appear so.

No.

It's re-NIG.

I don't usually show up at a car wash.

But, when I do, my car(s) get washed by Mexicans.

(Of course, I have to clear out virtually EVERYTHING on the inside. Otherwise, it will be gone, no matter what it is.)

So you say.

Do you think Ms. Fields had a bomb when Trumps' thug assaulted her, Princess?
