Greenville, SC – Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump is defending his bombastic temperament and frequent use of profanity in public.

He said at Saturday’s Republican presidential debate that criticism against him “is very unfair,” adding that he will not make vulgar remarks again on the campaign trail. Trump says “not using profanity is very easy.”
Trump has used profanity when describing how he would bomb Islamic State outposts in the Middle East. At a New Hampshire rally earlier this week, Trump repeated a supporter’s vulgar insult of Sen. Ted Cruz.
Trump also tells CBS News moderator John Dickerson that he is capable of keeping advisers who tell him when he acts inappropriately. Asked who could fill that role, the billionaire real estate mogul named his wife, Melania Trump.
The news media is being hypocritical pertaining to Trump’s profanities. John F. Kennedy frequently used profanity to his aides, as did Lyndon Johnson, and Richard Nixon. Jimmie Carter also used profanity. Yet, the news media never called them out, on their language. Even Harry Truman was known for using salty language; Presidents are not perfect, and are not choir boys. Frankly, I don’t care what type of language a President uses, as long as he does a good job, and is an effective leader.
T Rump uses outlandish words and brainless statements to attract brainless voters, but is that who we need as a leader? a person with no vision, no plan, just profanities and put downs?
Takes a person to say he’ll try not to use profanity. Halivai inzir mentshin would do the same.
Not surprising! Obviously, a vulgar person defends profanities. Anyone voting for him falls under the same category. And if G-d forbid he becomes President, it will show the world the base level the US has sunken.
To #7 - You have a lot of chutzpah painting all of Trump 217;s supporters with the same brush. Yes, we defend him, as we like his platform, and his future policies. It doesn 217;t mean that we agree with every word (profane or otherwise), which he uses. We are not all blue collar, white trailer trash. There are many white collar, educated people (including many frum Yidden), who support Trump, who don 217;t use that kind of language. However, as #8 stated, that kind of language (right or wrong), is quite common now.
To #5 - Unfortunately, while bashing Trump, you turn around, and in an uncivil manner, refer to me as  220;stupid 221;, when you don 217;t even know me. Didn 217;t you learn any manners, while growing up? At least # 4 knew how to criticize me, in a courteous and respectful manner.
To # 217;s 9, and 10-Thank you for your support!
