Starnes: Donald Trump is not a conservative [pro 'grown men going into bathrooms with little girls']
FoxNews ^ | April 22, 2016 | Todd Starnes

What sort of man is lurking deep inside Donald Trump’s innards?

[SNIP]

Evolving? Projecting an image? Moderating?

Back in the South those are code words for snookered, two-faced and phony-as-a-two-dollar-bill.

Oh, Donald. What have you done? Say it isn’t so.

“Donald Trump is telling the American people that he’s lying to us,” Sen. Ted Cruz said on the campaign trail Friday. “His campaign is now run by Washington lobbyists.”

[SNIP]

In just the past few days we’ve seen him begin to waffle on issues like abortion and religious liberty.

Pro-life groups are extremely concerned by comments he made about rewriting the party’s pro-life platform.

He also spoke out against North Carolina’s decision to strike down Charlotte’s so-called bathroom bill.

“The problem with what happened in North Carolina is the strife and the economic punishment that they’re taking,” he said on the "Today Show." With all due respect, the problem in North Carolina was big business trying to bully and intimidate moms and dads who want to protect their daughters.

“In the last 48 hours, Donald Trump has come out for grown men going into the bathrooms with little girls,” Cruz said. “That is politically correctness on steroids

That is issue 1,000 for me. While this is going on, the debt jumped 36 billion, hundreds killed by ISIS, thousand came across the border, thousands lost their jobs. Yep! Your priorities are impressive. Ugh!

One can never be conservative if one is not a social conservative.

DT is definitely not a social conservative, and will never be elevated to be a conservative.

And let’s go one step further: Trump’s “conservatism” is how conservatism will now be defined. We’ve lost our nation at that point. At least now we have real conservatism to hold on to.

Get people out in the streets to fight the left on this or you will lose.

I have news for the sleep at the switch conservatives and Republicans who believe there is still time to win this war. The social issue war has been lost a long time ago. Take the bathroom issue. No one seems to recognize that the liberal 4th Circuit drove a nail in the separate bathroom by gender debate the other day. Furthermore, abortion has been legalized by the liberal courts years ago. Religious freedom has been done in. The debate is no longer a right versus wrong debate, it is rabid Fascism against rational sanity and I'm sorry to say insanity has won. It is getting weirder and crazier by the day. The crazies are in our colleges, the courts, political halls and in the streets running amok and their behavior has now become the new norm. I do not see how this snake can ever be driven back into its basket.

the false conservatism of the GOPe as to fiscal, immigration is not as bad as the absence of social conservatism that DT is defining as ‘conservatism’.

Conservatives must realize that social conservatism is the bedrock principle of the Founders. It is called in a nutshell religious morality, and it the reason why those brave souls then killed and got killed to better this land.

If we had social conservatism, we would have none of these problems to begin with.

“I have news for the sleep at the switch conservatives and Republicans who believe there is still time to win this war. The social issue war has been lost a long time ago. “

Don’t think so. I do believe there will be irreconcilable differences between the leftists views on morality and those of the religion they most admire, Islam.

There will be a reckoning, and it will be sickening to watch social conservatives give up the fight to join the leftists to combat the issue against the Muslims.

Trump is turning into a raving socio-path. Queers and Transvestites watching little girls go to the bathroom is ok with Trump? He doesn’t have the guts to stand against that....well of course not.....and the judges he selects won’t either.

Right now there is only one person supporting North Carolina’s law....Cruz.

Where the author of this piece been? He’s been campaigning as a conservative? When did this start? Right out of the campaign gate, he blasted conservatives and what we stand for, stating it was government’s role to take care of everyone, and “you conservative” would “just have to get used to it!”. He has taken ultra-liberal, big government positions on pretty much every issue across the board - these latest issues mentioned are just the most recent things. And of course, the Trump supporters find a way to justify this ultra liberal agenda - even stating that the continued destruction of the culture is not an important issue, therefore, we shouldn’t mind enthusiastically supporting someone who champions the same. There are many Democrats, who aren’t conservative in the least, that are arguably to his right.

George W. Bush signed into law the ban of partial-birth abortions, appointed judges which resulted in it being upheld constitutionally, reinstated the Mexico City policy his very first day in office and also extended this policy to all State Department programs, blocked federal spending on destroying more embryos for embryonic stem cell research, born alive infants protection act, blocked funding for UNFPA, signed unborn victims of violence act, etc.

as long as you support liberals and hillary donors, all lies about Cruz are acceptable

especially the lie that it is good for grown men to pee with your little girl or wife

You trump supporters are perverts and you have lost your minds.

Biblical level of delusion.
