Weekly Standard‘s Stephen Hayes: Donald Trump Is A ‘Clownish Figure’ Who Supported Obama And Pelosi Two Years Ago

Video
» 86 comments

Donald Trump is getting everyone’s attention and that includes serious conservatives like Karl Rove and now Stephen Hayes, senior writer for The Weekly Standard. It seems as if both Rove and Hayes are worried about Trump, and here Hayes suggests that Trump’s political efforts are simply for media adulation, since “Donald loves him some Donald.”

Hayes warns:

“The problem I think he has is that he’s sort of a clownish figure. He doesn’t really have any ideas. He was supporting Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama two years ago, he’s been on every side of every issue and in every conceivable political position over the past decade. So he’s not a terribly serious candidate.”

Hayes does have at least one positive thing to say about Trump, suggesting that he is “brash and aggressive,” unlike most other potential Republican candidates. Yet Hayes ultimately dismisses Trump suggesting Charlie Sheen could similarly poll just as high with his name recognition and Hayes is confident that Trump would never be able to “dress down” to do well in the early primary state of Iowa.

    Trying to minimize Trump is a big mistake. The old guard republican establishment better wise up. My gawd, if Obama can get elected… it’s not a huge stretch for a man who has an incredibly diverse background and more real world experience than BO ever had.

    Believing someone is a clown as a presidential candidate has nothing to do with the fact that free people should be able to ask reasonable questions of their government and the government leaders. Show me one …one post on Mediaite where I support Trump as a President.

    Show it to me you liar or apologize.

    Has anyone noticed how Fox is indiscriminately attacking Trump in the past few days? Trump would be a disaster candidate for the GOP. The GOP realizes that and have reacted negatively to his candidacy since day one (especially when he accelerated on the birther issue). Since Fox news and the GOP are one in the same, they’ve now received the memo that he is bad for business. So from Top (Rove, Billo, Coulter) to bottom (Red eye folks), all of them have been unleashing on Trump and his Birther ideas.

    Trump hasn’t seen anything yet. This is just he beginning. Wait till the questions about his business dealings and personal life start to come to surface. His recent interview with a WSJ (friendly to the right) didn’t go smoothly, how would he fair against others?

    It’s a disaster written all over it.

    You sound defensive, why don’t you scroll up and read what I said. I clearly stated that you supported his Birther crap, now if you are ashamed of that, that is your problem, but don’t try to deny you didn’t.

    Another point of you being a perfect phony is that you support the Birthers to ask questions, yet you do not offer similar support to the Truthers. What does it says about you?

    His boss made Steve say those things.

    He’s afraid The Donald might actually pull all of our troops from everywhere around the world, unless of course the host countries agree to pay through the nose to keep us there instead of the other way around, us paying them, in place today.

    Kritol’s whole life and personal furture depend on war mongering not only remaining alive and well, but expanding to every corner of the globe.

    The new way of defending our homeland, as well as America’s allies ( Obama’s sworn enemies ) will be more high tech once we accomplish a regime change of our own in Washington.

    We will have penney loafers on the ground, special ops frogmen just off shore and the full might of the Navy and Airforce patrolling the oceans of the world. We also need to do something with all those extra neclear weapons. We’ll have them at the ready sans the nuclear warhead ( unless absolutely necessary ) with ( pre engraved usual suspects names ) just waiting to be disposed of.

    We’re also going to send the league of radical islam, communists and sundry other third world country dictatorships packing off of our sovereign nations soil.

    Yeah…that’s what i thought. Way to back track. If I sound defensive it is because I hate liars.

    As far as the birther “crap” goes I’ve stated it before. I have no problem with people questioning the government or government leaders to include the birth certificate. I believe Obama was born here, have stated that before, but admitted that he could stop all this foolishness if he’d just show the actual long form.

    As far as the truther crap goes, I have admitted that I have no problem with people wanting more of an investigation. The government should be as open as the people want on whatever subject, but I do believe that the actual buildings fell because of the hijackers. Once again, I have no problem with people questioning the government account. What part of that do you not comprehend?

    I find fault with the government. And to me, individual liberty and government accountability are more important that politics.

    I’m sorry you are just another partisan stooge.

    A majority of voters supported Obimbo and Pelosi two years ago, and like them, it didn’t take long to figure out that they voted for a lie! Trump, like most who supported the gruesome-two-sum, two years of ridiculousness from two of the most inept, under qualified leaders this countries has seen in decades has soured what many hoped would be a centrist government. Of course, anyone who read, or listen to Obimbo’s rhetoric knew he was anything but centrist. Trump should be congratulated for recognizing his error, and having the guts to openly challenge the interloper in public.

  • TerryDo

    Bill and Stephen are talking about Trump spending a year in Iowa?

    And listen up Hayes, maybe the voters want to ‘love some of that Donald’ also.

    There was a time before TV when candidates for the presidency had to travel the country by train to meet the people and get the people to know a little bit about them. This current drawn out (horse and pony show) a continuation from the early 1700 and1800’s is such a colossal waste of time and money!

    Why, with the 24/7 news reports on the internet and TV, they have not shortened that long boring process, and have more debates on TV and then simply let the citizens vote for their favourite. First they can vote in the primaries and then in the presidential elections.

    If tomorrow the Democrates decide to go with Obama and the Republicans go with Trump, then you are either going to vote for Obama, Trump, or not vote at all.

    Why do people need a whole year to decide whom they would vote for, it could be over in one month? So Just Do It America!

    Those who would vote for Trump would never vote for Obama and vice-versa.

    I stayed up last night to watch this Donald Trump clown. He spoke at a rally in Florida. (I’m assuming that’s where he was.) Saw it on CSpan. His speech was the most unintelligible sounding speech I’ve ever listened to. It was Donald Trump in rare form.

    How in the hell can he even think he’d be president of a country that prides itself on Democracy. He kept talking about going into other countries and taking their stuff (oil to be more specific). This man is a raving lunatic.
    And that’s all he’s got. It’s a no-brainer who’s got this next election. OMG! I would love to see a debate between my loving, kind-hearted, intelligent, and democracy-seeking president Obama AND Donald Trump. (giggle)

    Trump spoke to hundreds. Palin spoke to thousands.

    Bring in Allen West into the Madison tea party rally and it would’ve been awesome.

    Palin spoke to hundreds, while thousands protested. Yes, baggers cannot count.

    Nice summary. Tea-baggers will not like this as it contains factual information.

    Loved Palins speech. Loved even more the anti-protesters. They made me laugh so hard. Trying to make the world think they represent what the people think and feel just after they spent so much money on the election trying to oust the judge but the people of WI aren’t going for it. Now we know what the people of WI really feel. Point of fact most conservatives don’t go to rallies.

    I agree it is a nice summary. I am a conservative and assure you only those not paying attention believed Trump to be one of us. Love that he has been outed.

    Since when did factual information mean anything to them?

    Stephen Hayes must be one of those so-called MSM “reporters” that seem to tell us so many lies now days. Do any Leftist reporters report the Truth anymore? Seems not! They only want their 15 minutes of fame be being interveiwed so that they can talk trash about someone. Get a friggin Life, Hayes! Who are you anyway, never heard of your noname reporting!

    ALLEN WEST 2012! A Proven Leader, Patriot, and a Born American with a REAL BC that he will be happy to show, unlike the Kenyan Monkey Feces, Obama!

    Trying to minimize Trump is a big mistake. The old guard republican establishment better wise up. My gawd, if Obama can get elected… it’s not a huge stretch for a man who has an incredibly diverse background and more real world experience than BO ever had.

    AND HE IS GOING TO WIN YOU DUMB ASS, YOU GOT ONLY CLOWNS, WE WILL WIN HANDS DOWN

    You sound defensive, why don’t you scroll up and read what I said. I clearly stated that you supported his Birther crap, now if you are ashamed of that, that is your problem, but don’t try to deny you didn’t.

    Another point of you being a perfect phony is that you support the Birthers to ask questions, yet you do not offer similar support to the Truthers. What does it says about you?

    WELL SAID SKYFET, MORELIBERTY5 IS A HYPOCRITE JUST LIKE THEIR PARTY
