Is Donald Trump a “man-baby”?

Yep. That’s what comedian Jon Stewart dubbed him in a recent interview with David Axelrod, Obama’s former chief campaign strategist. Stewart described Trump as having … "the physical countenance of a man and a baby's temperament and hands” and not qualified to be President.
Oh boy. The Donald is not going to like this. It shouldn’t be long before he pulls a Trumpism and excoriates Stewart. As both Trump and Stewart have large and loyal fan bases, it should be interesting to see who wins this one.
So far Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, hasn’t done much to change his persona. He’s already going full blast attacking Hillary and hubby Bill. Many Republicans are holding out or outright refusing to support him, like the entire Bush family.
He’s also talked back to GOP kingpin Paul Ryan, who says he isn’t “there” yet in supporting Trump, even offering to step down as Chair of the Republican convention if Trump asks him to. Trump and Ryan are supposedly meeting this week to discuss unifying the party and getting to know each other better. I wonder how that will go.
There are rumors floating around that Romney or someone else might step in as a candidate to prevent Trump from winning the nomination. That would be a really stupid move for Republicans, unless they want a Hillary win.

Jon Stewart launched a stinging new round of criticism against Donald Trump on Monday, calling the presumptive Republican presidential nominee a thin-skinned hypocrite who ridicules political rivals and minorities but implodes when faced with even a minor

I think Trump needs to clean his act up a bit and try more to get along. He could win this election hands down if he just made some effort.

@Genipher I agree. I like him better than the other candidates, but still want to see more from him before I vote.

I think he got a lot of his votes by going against the norm and NOT getting along or being PC. If he wins, that'll be the reason he does.
I think that's the only thing I like about him: his willingness to say what he wants without worrying what people think.
Deep down, though, he's still a liar. Like every other politician.
I don't trust him.
I trust Hillary even less.

They definitely are getting more interesting but also nastier and nastier, I'm afraid.

@LindaCPearson I really hate that some have to get so personal, just hitting out at each other instead of saying what they intend to do for the country.

it would have to be someone super popular, and they should have already done it if they wanted it to be a serious thing

True. There really isn't anyone popular right now and it would only split the delegates, hurt Trump and help Hillary in the long run.

It's funny how Trump said he "wasn't there yet" when asked to endorse Paul Ryan. He certainly is vindictive, lol

He's the biggest crybaby I've ever seen. Seriously, I thought most people outgrew his kind of childish behavior by the time they got to middle school or sooner. Now he's endorsed Ryan as well as McCain and Ayotte but he had to read it off a piece of paper, as if he couldn't remember how to say something as simple as that.

No doubt about it! I don't think it does much to help him win any friends!

@anniepa - It's just been a massive trainwreck every time he opens his mouth--I'm kind of morbidly fascinated and just can't look away, lol

I won't be able to vote this election.
As a Republican, I refuse to vote for Trump and I absolutely will NOT cast a vote for Hillary.
Stuck between a rock and a hard place, I'll just stand in one spot, thankyouverymuch.
Can't we just kick out all these "potentials" and start over?

It definitely has been quite a bunch of "unusual" or unlikeable candidates this time.
