GOP Strategist Calls Donald Trump a 'Loudmouthed Dick' on Live TV

[kpete]

“Have you lost any hope that the GOP can reign Trump in to be more traditional?” Cooper inquired. “Or at least more disciplined as a candidate?”

“I lost all hope of that probably seven, eight months ago now, quite candidly,” Mair replied. “It’s amazing to me that anybody’s still having a discussion about having some sort of an intervention or bringing him back on message… This is his message. His message is being a loudmouthed dick, basically, and going out there and offending people and then engaging in a bunch of airing of grievances. That’s what he does. He doesn’t have another message.”

[TeddyR]

3. This is the most accurate description of Trump

I've seen.

[Siwsan]

4. Credit to Anderson Cooper for not cracking up!

[anamandujano]

39. Credit to Cooper for asking that question.

It's fantastic that this issue is not only out there but front and center.

[mahina]

43. They did cut away, so he may have reacted.

He's one of the greats imho

[IronLionZion]

5. Republicans for Johnson/Weld!

I'm loving it!

Why didn't they bleep it out?

[Lochloosa]

7. It's not one of the "Seven Dirty Words"...

[fleabiscuit]

10. Or, :-)

[tblue37]

31. They didn't bleep Halpern on "Morning Joe" when he called Pres. Obama the same thing. nt

[Shrike47]

11. Lol! Missed that! nt

[niyad]

13. I see it so often, and it is very irritating.

[GulfCoast66]

15. Too bad

More people do not ride horses!

[lillypaddle]

25. My thought

rein is what you do to a horse to slow him down. Reign is a king's term in presiding over his people. Anyone else with me?

[niyad]

26. I know what the words mean, but, apparently, the writers do not.

[lillypaddle]

29. Didn't catch that

Thanks.

[niyad]

30. not a problem

[hamsterjill]

27. Yes, I believe you are correct.

So you "rein" in a candidate, much like you would a horse. You do not "reign" in a candidate.

[mercuryblues]

32. Oh please

stop reining on my parade or I make you make you parade king. How will you rain? If bad who will reign you in?

[niyad]

33. groaaaaaannnnnn

[mercuryblues]

35. you might

appreciate it more when you realize how hard it is to purposely type that wrong.

[niyad]

36. oh, I can imagine.

[63splitwindow]

46. ...

[lastlib]

42. +50!

Irritating to see such poor usage.

[roamer65]

12. Yeah. I heard it live.

I cheered when she said it.

[oberliner]

14. She is a Libertarian

And seems to be trying to get more twitter followers.

[4lbs]

19. She's not really a Libertarian. She's still a Republican, and was in Scott Walker's campaign

in 2015.

After Walker dropped out, she switched support to Gary Johnson.

[oberliner]

20. No, she is definitely really a Libertarian

Go to her website. She self-identifies as a "Libertarian Republican" whatever that is.

[4lbs]

22. LOL. That's a Republican that supports the Libertarian over Trump.

True Libertarians would never identify as being part Republican or Democratic.

Gary Johnson doesn't say he's "Libertarian Republican" or "Libertarian Democrat", just simply "Libertarian".

[oberliner]

37. She is pro-choice, pro-LGBT

Not a typical Republican, at the very least.

[IronLionZion]

38. Johnson and Weld were Republican governors

Johnson even ran for president as a Republican last time before switching to Libertarian.

Even Ron Paul has run for president as a Libertarian and then for congress as a republican

[Orrex]

16. That clip should be featured in campaign ads.

[barbtries]

17. crap i'm at work

i so want to watch this. and i so hope some of his supporters are seeing the truth of him.

[ailsagirl]

18. Perfect!!

Incidentally, another GOP strategist worth listening to is Rick Wilson. He's bright and has a great sense of the absurd! I've seen him on Lawrence's show and have enjoyed his comments very much. He has a lot to say.

21. There's been a lot of foul language on TV lately related to Trump

I've heard other things lately that are usually not good for TV.

[smirkymonkey]

23. Wow!

The truth has been spoken.

[ErikJ]

24. I hate her. She's just pissed that he's blowing te ReichWingers cover.

Instead of using dog whistle code words Trump is using blunt languae. Good Cons HATE that.

[clarice]

28. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL...."Loud Mouthed Dick" What a great Country. nt

[Spitfire of ATJ]

34. Now watch Trump send her a mean girl tweet.

[awoke_in_2003]

40. And someone

called him a bullshit artist on live TV yesterday

[RapSoDee]

41. Republicans elevate a lying Loudmouth Chickehawk Dick to be their Whiner-in-Chief

Shows what they think is 'noble.'

[Different Drummer]

44. And he's all yours, GOP! n/t

[Fritz Walter]

47. Why are Drumpf's shirts always buttoned at the collar?

So we don't see the foreskin sliding up over his face.

[Lady_Chat]

48. HAHA! Thank you, Liz Mair!
