I actually agree with this, but having diarrhea of the mouth doesn't really help matters. I think a lot of it is in context, it's just Trump speaks emotionally and not pragmatically... it's why he's so popular with some folks.... it's why he can shoot someone in daylight and people would still follow him (unless that quote was taken out of context too??).
Out of context in the sense that Mr. Trump would actually consider doing as much to prove his point ? Absolutely. Taken out of context entirely. Any honest person already knows this. It's a sad testimony when one accepts what they know to be untrue as the truth for the sake of their political leanings. This comment is speaking in general terms of today's American electorate.

I don't think anyone thinks Donald would really do that... I don't know if anyone has ever made that claim, certainly not me. Strawman? He set up a hypothetical scenario. I doubt Trump would ever do that, but I don't doubt the truthfulness of his words in that quote. Reading the news forum will only confirm Trump's quote to be accurate in that given scenario.

I take a look at a guy like Ben Carson. The media tried slandering him because he "wasn't one of their own." Is there any, or was there any, some form of controversy or scandal surrounding him based on what he said? One thing about the media is they report whatever is said. Trump has a bad habit of inserting his foot into his mouth. A lot of times the media scews it for their gain. The other is Trump just not using common sense, and either doing/saying something unintelligent/rude, or just playing right into the media's and Hillary's hands.
Well, being in the same business as Trump, (though several billion dollars his junior) I have to dispute that comment. There are not many men in the history of the world who have been as successful as builders, deal makers, negotiators, and bringing in huge projects under budget and ahead of schedule as he is.

I have said this same thing several times when his candid mouth upset me...... BUT I have also been proven dead-wrong just as many times. I don't think many of us really see what he is doing until it comes to be successful for him. Not that this will ALWAYS be the case, but it has been so far.

And I will bet you dollars to donuts that, if elected, that very thing will happen.
Now, does that mean that Mexico will directly pay the workers who construct the wall? Probably not. That would be a foolish thing to expect. (You DO have to think a little bit for yourself in this world.) I think it means that Trump will have Mexico increasing their payments to us for various things that they are now taking us to the cleaners over, to be more than enough to offset every dime building that wall will cost.
