Why can't Donald Trump let people finish their questions without jumping in mid-sentence just because he's anticipated what is being asked?


  Shutting people down when you don't agree with their position is rude, arrogant and disrespectful.  I'm sure aides and advisors must have tried to brief him prior to yesterday's speech and press conference, but to no avail, because he just doesn't listen.
  The same thing takes place at my job during staff meetings.  Someone has the floor, and he or she gets interrupted.  I thought we all learned from age 3 not to do that. Arrrrrggghhh.

    That is one of the things that irritates me the most when a person is interviewing someone.  You asked a question, now let the person answer it in full before you interrupt with your own thoughts or the next question.

  • He's a dictator .. and is only used to having "yes" men and women around him.  He has systematically removed most of the people around him who dare to stand up to him and will continue to do so.  The Press is something he can't control .. so he makes them the enemy.  Makes me very scared for the future for my grandson!

    Have you ever watched the CBS morning news? Gayle, Jon and Nora are experts at that when they have guests.

    Thanks, but no, I have never watched.  I don't even know who they are.

    You have to understand he is a one-man show.  Does not work well with people and has learned to only trust his own instincts.  Believes that he must project absolute certainty and confidence at all times or people will not respect him.  I have known and worked with people like that.

    "You have to understand he is a one-man show.  Does not work well with people and has learned to only trust his own instincts."

    Take away the 100 other reasons he shouldn't be president, and your above description sufficiently explains why he shouldn't be.

    Please understand that my husband and I voted for him and support him for his general stance and beliefs and policies, but not uncritically.
