Trump seems to have a lot of those and his honesty and integrity pay big dividends in loyalty so, to everyone's surprise, the guy usually is still somewhere in the organization when the dust settles.

Looked dumb, but he turned it to his advantage.<br /><br />You don't like his tactics - plain spokenness and the use of Twitter; I know, he's very unconventional. It seems to work for him. Right now, we haven't seen the public's reaction to who's right on Orlando, save for a few questions on specific issues and they seem to be going his way.<br /><br />I think Orlando wiped a lot of other things off the board and I'm waiting to see what comes next. Surber made a good point about all the "dissension" right now - as long as the donors are willing to pay, the Whigs will make noise.

What I also meant to say that I liked it when Trump stood up for his guy when that special snowflake, flopper, reporter had assault charges filed against him. I've followed politics enough to know people get fired all the time. It's like being a MLB manager. As AJ Lynch just opined, this is inside baseball and really not that big a story.
