That is a great list and I like the guy.

But he needs to put more time into learning current events..

The leaders of Hamas And Hezbollah dont change leaders every six months. He should know who the Quids are.

Two hours a day with an expert (Bolton) and he would be caught up to speed very quickly.

“For assault weapon ban but says the AR-15 shouldn’t be considered an assault weapon.”


Did he define assault weapon? What is it? I can get a Class 3 permit now under law and own an automatic weapon. Is he going to take that away from me?

“Wants to reduce income taxes and eliminate corporate tax”


Where did he say money will come from to run government?

“Will deport all illegals but will let the hard working ones go through the legal process to come back”


Cannot have it both ways deporting them ALL and then keeping the hard working ones. Also how is hard working defined. Is that with the “back” or with the “mind”.

“Wants a military so strong no one will challenge us”


Cannot cut taxes and eliminate corporate taxes and have strong military. You have to have money to pay for it. I believe in strong military to protect our homeland.

“Stressed the importance of a strong family & culture of life (2015)”


Amen

He has to come out on where he will find money on all of these tax cuts. Yes some will come from welfare reduction and illegals being evicted.

Cruz has come out with a flat tax that will work and is well documented. Trump has a 3 bracket tax proposal that is still a progressive tax system that will require a largess IRS to manage.

A flat tax system does not require a 70k IRS person staff to manage. Which is better in the long run?

Other than what I noted above Trump has a very conservative approach.

I think Trump and Cruz are our hope for tomorrow. Maybe not in that order.
