No, I don't trust Trump any more than anyone else. Trump, imo, just has the highest potential of delivering what he is talking about that I agree with. Its all a crap shoot. Don't know until they get into office, regardless of who we are talking about.

Is this just plain stuff or is a display of that nuance thing you keep mentioning ?

Except that Gawker are wrong. It's a proverb with many variants.

"Better to live one day like a lion Than a thousand sheepishly"
"It is better to live one day as a Lion, than 100 years as a Sheep"
"It is better to live one day as a lion than ten years as a lamb."

"It is better to live one day as a lion than a hundred years as a sheep." - Italian proverb...
"It is better to live one day as a lion than a thousand days as a lamb.". —Roman proverb.
"It is better to live one day as a lion than a 1000's as a sheep." A Military Quote.
"It is better to lived under a lion-skin than under soft skin of lamb." * Unknown *

AGAIN: Trump's "Mussolini" quote IS NOT ONE...it's a famous Italian Army slogan from 1918, see here https://t.co/Iq2xTieRbe

Die hard conservatives disliked Obama long before he was elected.

They only recently became fed up with the GOP leadership (McConnell, Paul Ryan, Boehner and then Ryan etc.) to the point of rejecting party establishment directives.

Arguing that Obama is an evil genius who is somehow orchestrating Trump's popularity with the GOP's base is a sure symptom of stage V ODS.

Go back to the Tea Party for a time line on the rejection of leadership.

Not in the tank for Fox, not by a long short. I listen but check before I leap or at least sure as hell try. I don't trust anyone anymore, more than I did so in the past. And breaking news for you, Trump and Fox really do not like each other. Fox tolerates Trump for ratings dollars. If Fox is in the tank for anyone, its Rubio.

ymwv ...

Edit: doesn't really matter cuz Hillary is in anyway. The only thing stopping her is the FBI.
