Presidential race 2016

But, in my opinion, Trump is way over his head when it comes to seriously addressing the issues and it's going to get worse as candidates and media start pushing on him harder to back-up his false rhetoric (like the moderator last night did in regards to vaccines and autism).

I thought he did ok with that. Although he thinks vaccines cause autism which is crazy he only suggested the vaccines be spaced out in smaller doses and both Carson and Paul agreed. I didn't get the feeling that banning vaccines from the country is at the top of his priority list.

Difference of opinion.

To me, Trump looked silly trying to dispute what Dr. Carson had nicely just explained to him by claiming that the baby of someone he knows got a lot of vaccinations at once and then suddenty became autistic!

His attempt to argue that his opinion about that personal experience somehow overrides the sound research of the medical community and makes his false rhetoric true is an example of a Trumpism. Carson was cool in admitting that he also thinks too much vaccine at once can be a problem, which gave Trump an opportunity for an out by claiming, "that's all I'm saying". No it wasn't all he was saying. He was saying, once again, that some vaccinations and too much vaccination at once causes autism - which is false, according to Carson and the medical community.

But, I don't think that on its own hurt him much with most people. "That's just Trump". I agree with you there. I think it's an example of how he's going to start getting pushed and struggle to back up some of his other unsubstantiated claims.

I'm still waiting for Trump to provide his proof that the Mexican government is engaged in a conspiracy to gather up their rapists and murderers and send them over the border illegally. He's been asked over and over to substantiate that oft-repeated allegation and only says, "I've been to the border; I talked to a patrol agent; you're not a baby" and then changes the subject.
