I have said in the past one can look past some things he says and does.

It is unforgiveable, inexcusable and an indicator of emotionally driven poor judgement.

If he was becoming a viable candidate for me and my perspective, he just fell of the ladder.

If he does not come back and appologize, that will be another indicator for me as well.

I think it will hurt him in the general public's view.

Definitely it is a low brow comment but it does show Donald as a "regular guy" who sometimes gets carried away and real emotion comes spouting out.

Many Presidents have been known as cussers. Truman, Kennedy, Johnson are the most notable.

It puts Trump in good company and not many will let one "F" bomb sway their vote.

We will see how he reacts.
And I am not aware the other preidents or public officials known for cussing blatantly letting it fly in public.

I agree it was an emotional discharge.

he did not say the word out loud, but mouthed it in the silence :) don't think it will change anyone's vote....his supporters know how he is.

Clinton was quoted as saying it to Obama (call off your F**ing dogs Barrack). Biden said it in Obama's ear and it was picked up on the mic. Everyone thought it was humorous that the old addled guy said it. The word is used (unfortunately) on prime time TV now. I doubt it will have any effect on anyone's vote. It is unfortunate that our country has regressed to this vulgarity thanks to the liberal influence of the media and the tolerance of not only liberals but the moral silent majority.

I think you are wrong. There are a lot of folks like me that still have core values that DO NOT allow certain behaviors and language in the home or in an environment where family with females and children are present.

Like it or not my entire family has learned this over the years. As the kids got older they try different thins. Some let the 'f' bomb fly. My reaction? I would say that is one. The next one and you will leave the property. I only had to do that one time...ask one to leave the house. Worked like a charm thereafter.

Then came the grandchildren and as they grew older, but at a younger age, one would try it. They got the same message. Thier answer, everybody says it in scholl including the teachers. My response? This is my house. The next time you will be asked to leave. The charm continued to work to this day.

Has nothing to do with being extremely religious. It has all to do with moral and core values which have been in steady decline over the past 25 years.

The condition, lack of expectation, lack of discipline, lack of respect of today is a direct result of the liberal permissiveness our society thrives upon.

Trump is tumbling down hill like big rock in space when it hits gravity. The guy worse own enemy when he opens his mouth. What do you think he will be like when real pressure on him and not the campaign BS which BS anyway. He should be laughing it off or no comment like Hilary does when all her lies are pointed out.

Yes, let's take the country back to the 1950's where men worked and women stayed at home to take Prozac and alcohol. Men could legally beat their wives and kids but not too severely. Minorities were hidden away from good white folk and knew their place. Vote Santorum!

Funny and accurate. Except Prozac wasn't marked until the late 1980s. In the 50's the happy housewife in her lovely apron took Miltown and barbiturates, and alcohol.

Yes, men worked and a lot of women stayed home and supervised their own children. As far as Prozac (or any other medication) or alcohol is concerned, I did not know of any women that used them during the day, other than Hollywood. I am sure that it was not as common as you suggest, but I do not know what kind of neighborhood you grew up in. Maybe the ghetto? Men did NOT beat their wives or their neighbors would beat them. And the police would look the other way (as they should have). Their kids may have been corporally disciplined, but probably turned out to be better citizens for it. In the 50's, the minorities were treated negatively in some areas. That part is fact. Most decent folks did not treat them bad.

But, leave it to liberals to only focus on the extremes or the worst in every discussion. They are a very miserable lot. They still won't accept responsibility for all the bad that has happened to society in America.
Liberals stand for:

Vulgarity in public: Freedom of speech
Lawlessness: Blame it on the establishment and racism
Pacifist: America's fault for war mongering
Socialism: Everyone has to be equally poor
communism: Everyone has to be a conformist, no religion allowed
Genderless: Mental illness is a trait not an ailment
Abortion: Babies are not real people and they aren't convenient
Affirmative action: Because minorities should be treated equal even if they don't qualify.

Just a few of the left wing values.

That a good look at your statement, and tell everyone that you aren't guilty of what you just accused liberals of being.

Trump is the one that swore in public. Liberals will accept that, but conservatives won't. Doesn't fly in the face of his comment that he could shoot a person in Times Square, and he wouldn't lose any votes. Then swearing is worse than shooting someone.

There are no liberal judges out there. If there were, every criminal would be found not guilty, because the establishment made them do it. If you want to fly with this nonsense, then conservatives think that there is no such thing as white collar crime. They are only practicing capitalism. Their victims should have seen the "buyer beware" sign on the door.

The major of Americans are tired of endless wars. Therefore, the majority of people in the US must be liberals.

You could never tax billionaires, or multi millionaires that much to make them poor. Liberals are just going to send the storm troopers in, and take all their money for the good of the country, and to make everyone poor.

There are no church going liberals. That nonsense speaks for itself.

Mental illness is a trait not an aliment. All mental illnesses are the same. Then how do you explain PTS. They didn't go into war with a mental conditions. They certainly came out with one.

I will provide you in the next post with the make of the Supreme Court in the Roe vs Wade anti-abortion case in 1973, where the court ruled that 30 states anti-abortion laws were unconstitutional. The article blows up your statement that liberal judges are responsible for the abortion laws in this country.

Affirmative action. We hold these trues to be self evident all men are created equal. Which people don't qualify to be equal under the Constitution?

"But, leave it to liberals to only focus on the extremes or the worst in every discussion." You don't that you are guilty of your own statement. Conservative almost always want to paint all liberals with the same brush. Your examples point to very small percentage of liberals. Given this same logic you could say all conservatives are heal kicking, straight arm saluting Nazis, because there are a few out there.

Worse than that, the far right throws everybody that doesn't agree with them into the liberal category. All liberals want to destroy the US, and the only thing that is stopping them is the far right, God fearing Americans. Moderates are only liberals hiding their true beliefs.

I had no problem with his statement about the shooting. It was an expression not a threat. And you know it. It only resonated with you because it was a conservative that said it. I have no intention of voting for him, but still understood what he meant. Apparently, you did not and that is probably the same reason you will vote for one of the two socialists.

Affirmative action has NOTHING to do with the constitution. Affirmative action gives preference to a group of people due to their race or gender. That is not "equal" in any definition. Go ahead and argue it but even the court supports my statement. And I have a cousin that was awarded promotions and back pay after he and some coworkers took it to court and won. So, you can take your affirmative action and do another unmentionable action with it.

And yes, when I respond to a comment that uses EXTREMES, I mean it. If you don't know what you are talking about, you really should be quiet because you just look like a fool. Next time, read the comment that I responded to before replying to my response.

If you don't like what people are doing with your liberal ideology, then do something about it, become conservative. Don't give me this cr@p about how misunderstood liberals are. Sanders is an admitted socialist, and Hillary is a radical liberal that believes in baby killing and free health care. If you can't accept the truth, you can always change to a conservative view.

Read it again and then respond. You may have misunderstood (as usual) what was written. The statement was that liberals think that the mental illness of being genderless is a trait not an ailment Where you got PTSD in there is really troublesome.

Would it be more acceptable if he would have used "Frigging" instead? How do we know he didn't? And doesn't it mean the same thing?

I do not like hearing vulgar language in public or on TV during prime time. I do not believe it is professional for a politician to use that kind of language in public. That said, it is very disingenuous for liberals to be indignant over this incident. Personally, I don't care what they think, as they have no intention of voting for Trump anyway. Actually, neither do I.

That is an absolute false, bias exaggeration. Everywhere in our society today women are ferred to as "b------"even by other women. there is less respect for women now than there was in the 1950's Drugs are more prevalent in today's society than they ever have been...should I go on

I have no problem with Trump swearing in public. The comment was he was going to lose votes because of it. That is total nonsense. How many times must I say it. I am going to vote for Kasich. If the election is Trump vs. Clinton, I am going to vote for Donald Duck. Is my vote being wasted? Yes. However, that isn't as bad as wasting four years, if either Trump or Clinton is elected.

Affirmation Action was necessary, because minorities in the 50's, 60's, and 70's weren't being treated equally. It did get to the point where minorities wanted to treated more equally. If the phrase about all men are created equal wasn't in the Constitution, why would Affirmative Action laws be necessary in the first place?

Your comment was "liberal values are:". there was no talk about addressing only extreme liberals. If you are standing by your list, seek help from a qualified mental health professional.

Only in the world of conservative are there only two schools of thought, conservatives and liberals. I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but there are three. The third is moderates. Moderates want to see both parties working together to get things done. The other two are running into their corners shouting, and insulting the other, which guarantees that nothing will get done.

As a practice I refrain from expletives and I refrain from talking about bathroom habits and I refrain from talking about my sex life.

In that same vein I recognized other people do and so turn the volume down on my hearing.

So its not Trump's language and insults that disturbs me..sticks and stones..... Its the reactions that cause Trump to act in the manner he does that concerns me. Why is it the man who claims he understands the "Art of the Deal" is unable to maintain his demeanor. Deal making is like playing poker and if Trump believes all his bluster fools the other guy well..........

A question you should ask your wife.

Of course most of our wives are happier than they were 'X' number of years past.

And that status has absolutely NOTHING to do with politics or any politician or any government program or permissive changes to America or any specific religion or gender preference.

Most of us did it through hard work and providing for our families.

We were not distracted by all the political, race, permissive BS of the current day!!!!

Note the emphasis on the use of we and us!!!!!

Some good points. But most of our wives and us were distracted by politics, race, and permissiveness. Just think about the late 60's and early 70's which were our late teens and 20's years. The Viet Nam war and the resulting political divide, race riots across the nation, and the drop out free love want to take you higher atmosphere that was popularized. So yes we were distracted, but like our previous generations we made it through. That is the strength of our country.

For once, I agree with you, chi.

But, not all of our wives were involved in the above. Many were attempting to keep the house together by working at low paying jobs during the 60-70's. The statement made by the poster was about the 50's. During that period of time, women were held in pretty high regard, and were the cement that held the families together. They received a lot more respect than they are now. Today, if you treat a woman with the respect they deserve, they think you might be hitting on them, or they feel that you are being condescending. I am generalizing, of course and speaking mostly of the younger generation, not our seniors.

But, we went pretty far away from the original post regarding Trumps vulgar language. If we spoke of the 50's and such language, it would not be tolerated and would be immediately censored.
