Presidential race 2016

[Duchess]

I finally had a chance to watch this morning's episode of Meet The Press. One of the topics discussed was Donald's interview with the editorial board of The Washington Post. It was a opportunity for him to talk about his vision for the future, his foreign policy, his ideas, etc. It was absurd. I'll enclose a link to the interview and there is audio of it as well.

A couple of highlights - he spent 550 words and several minutes defending the size of his hands.

- he wants libel laws loosened in some unspecified way so that he could more easily sue the media.

and this little gem - Post publisher Fred Ryan asked Trump if he would consider using a tactical nuclear strike against the forces of the Islamic State, were he president. Trump responded that he didn't want to "start the process of nuclear," then reminding the editors that he was "a counter-puncher."

"Remember, one thing that everybody has said, I’m a counter-puncher," Trump said. "Rubio hit me. Bush hit me. When I said low energy, he’s a low-energy individual, he hit me first. He spent, by the way -- he spent 18 million dollars’ worth of negative ads on me. That’s putting..."

Ryan jumped in. "This is about ISIS," he reminded Trump. "You would not use a tactical nuclear weapon against ISIS?"

"I’ll tell you one thing," Trump replied. "This is a very good looking group of people here. Could I just go around so I know who the hell I’m talking to?"
