    There is a complete video of his comments (about 39 minutes in length) at this link:

    http://www.politico.com/story/2015/10/donald-trump-no-labels-214669

    To give some important background information, the No Labels event is actually called a Convention, put together by this group:

    http://www.nolabels.org/nh-problem-solver-convention/

    It was SUPPOSED to be a non-partisan gathering among independent voters, to find solutions to our nation's problems.

    The No Labels link lists who put the group together, what their goal is for the next President of the USA and also to allow independents to talk with Presidential candidates of both parties, somewhat townhall-style, right now. That candidates who were scheduled to attend and to speak is also at that link. The candidates were NOT supposed to attack each other. Apparently, Donald Trump didn't get the message. I am totally shocked. :lol:

    Back to the Politico link from above:


    Fascinating. I would say this was probably not the smartest thing in the world for Donald Trump to do, but since I would relish him becoming the GOP nominee, I hope he says much more of this nonsense! And Donald, whatever you do, make sure to insult people because of their heritage!!

    :rofol:

    Discuss. Was this wise of the Trumpublican?

    I have never seen a more farcical "campaign" than this media stunt by Trump. It is amazing how a guy can lead by talking about how he is leading in the polls. He has been doing this for weeks in and out and either the polls are trolling us or the general intelligence of the Republican party has decreased over the years.
    Even Berlusconi had more of a platform than this joke.

    Why? this is a strength in my eyes! Anybody who just says what he thinks to be truth is what I want, I don't want anybody that bows to anything PC.

    So I watched the whole thing and wonder, what part of his speech was "nonsense"?

    I would call Hillary Clinton a farce. What has she done? She's not hardly campaigning. She thinks that America owes her the presidency because she stood by her man while he was soiling Monica Lewinski's dress. Well it don't work that way little miss powerhungry.

    Trump's winning. Call it a farce if you want, but I bet the rest of the candidates are envious of his "farcical campaign".

    I noticed Hillary Clinton didn't have the courage to show up.

    Nothing he said was out of line, and the Korean kid deflected the question. Obviously he knew that Trump was asking if he is of Korean decent.

    Some people hear "The Donald" mess up and think that's the end while they defend "The Obama's" 57 states statement.

    Liberal logic: Trump asks someone asking a question about South Korea if they are from South Korea = Trump must be a racist.

    Not a single vote has been cast. Trump isn't winning anything.

    The responses on this thread have been very amusing.

    It is just find to say what one thinks is the truth. . .if it is not too far from the FACTUAL truth and detached from reality!

    Now, if you want someone who is consistant and speaks his mind, a good, clever mind, listen to Bernie Sanders!

    I didn't mention Hillary Clinton at all. I posted about the fact that Trump has been talking for weeks about him leading in the polls without actually putting forward any political program other than he is the best, is leading and that everyone one else is terrible. And the fact that this has actually worked for him is a sad statement of the current level of Republican politics.

    Trump is leading the Republican primary but I seriously doubt he could survive a single debate against a Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton. He would simply be outed as a buffoon in a real debate and I imagine he would leave the stage and simply give up running.

    I don't know about you. But I prefer my politicians to be honest and respectable debaters that put forward their ideas and criticise other candidates ideas in a substantive manner.

    Right! Was he supposed to go sit at this event contrived to express the exact opposite of his campaign message and behave himself? The political establishment and both parties that maintain it deserve to have their asses kicked every single time an ass and foot are available for the task. Especially at a purposely ironic event like this one. Oh so THIS is the night where they are all going to come together and fix our problems! What a joke!
