Quote:While people are certainly over-offended at his remarks - you are grossly understating what he said and how he said it.  Presidential candidates that aren't a laughing stock don't make statements that have entire political parties scrambling to distance themselves  - while simultaneously offending millions.  He could have made his point without being an idiot about it..... if he weren't a complete idiot. 

 

He's certainly no politician.  Tact isn't something that is often associated with him.  I think that's why he has as many supporters as he does, though.  Some people just want someone who is unapologetic and stands firm no matter how much blow back he gets.  He's a throwback and he isn't easily influenced by the Washington power structure.  He could use a little more couth with sensitive subjects, but you won't ever wonder where he really stands on an issue behind closed doors.
