Don’t care. Anybody attacking Trump at this time is attacking the conservative Zeitgeist. Take your cue from Ted Cruz. Let him be, he’s making it easier for conservatives, not harder.

We needed effective in-your-face campaigning with strong pushback on the BS PC, now that we have somebody willing to blaze that trail “Fox News Contributors” are going to pile on?

But it is disturbing to hear you say that Trump’s admission of being a Democrat doesn’t faze you in the least. When I hear that from a conservative, it astounds me.

It's easy to explain: I grew up a Democrat but voted for Reagan in 1980. Never have identified myself as a member of the Republican Party. Still, am a Constitutional conservative.

“The facts don’t quite support the narrative.”

This fact overrides it all: Trump wanted the property and made the offer, but Ms. Coking didn’t want to sell. So Trump dragged her into court over it. And he’s a “100%” supporter of the Kelo decision, whether people are ambiguous about it or not. Property rights are fundamental in this country, and Trump has shown he doesn’t honor those rights.

" Still, am a Constitutional conservative."

But Trump is still self-identifying as a Democrat.

We were rightfully against Romney (and countless other RINOS) because we knew they were closet Democrats.

But now Trump admits he's one, and we're going to excuse it? I won't. I can't.

I'm not certain that is factual. But if he is, it doesn't faze me, a Southern U.S. Constitutional conservative...for the reason I gave you previously a few minutes ago.

DT is doing a great service to Ted Cruz (and another not-yet-named possible candidate) by running interference in the press now and ahead of the convention a year in the future.

I wasn’t aware of all that. Now this makes much more sense.

Trump proved that he is a sleazebag. Malkin has set out to tell the truth about him, and I applaud her for it.

Your slander against DT on this thread only gives evidence that you aren't seeing the benefit Trump's candidacy as a Republican gives to Ted Cruz.

Look beneath the surface of what's happening?

Someone posts facts about your dear Donald, do try not to take it personally. If he’s used eminent domain to build his empire, he’s no small government conservative.

You are (deliberately?) misconstruing what I posted to another FReeper, dear idiot.

Yeah, I’m just making it up.

Forget it. I’d provide a link, but there’s no point.

Slander?

What do you call a man who attacks a decent conservative lady in such a manner? A gentleman?

Was referring only to your calling Trump a "sleazebag".

Is that blood coming from your eyes?

Enough of this victim-hood stuff! Those days are OVER.

>> “Your slander against DT on this thread...” <<

Sorry troll, but truth is not slander.

Donald Trump has lived his entire life as a wicked Mammonist, and no good can ultimately come of that pursuit.

You defend the indefensible. Trump’s mis-characterization of issues has done nothing for the ultimate success of the solid candidates like Cruz and Carson, and if he actually runs (in a Turd party, the only route open to him) it will further the chances of the Democrat candidate.

Disagreeing with your characterization of “my dear Trump” is not flaming. Besides, you are one bringing the kindling, wood, kerosene, and matches to this thread and others.

Actually, I’m cool with the anti-Trump junk that’s on FR. Proceed on your (paid?) mission.

I remain still 100% for Ted Cruz, yet not railing against Trump because I see how DT is benefitting TC’s candidacy.

I think you a re missing the point. Trump is is supposedly in the lead and the media is promoting him as a conservative and people are believing them. Sure, Pataki has points of criticism , but at this point who cares? Trump is the
Left most of all 17 candidates and is using the media tty of cover for that. At least most people know where Bush is coming from. So why should Pataki get equal attention to Trump? You are basically saying ignore the truth about Trump, even though his whole candidacy is a fraud.

Sorry troll...You defend the indefensible.

Troll? Certain you want to go that route? And from just where did you now pop up?

e-s, you and I have posted to each other many times over the years and in all sincerity I request that you show where, on this or any thread, I have "defended the indefensible", meaning Donald Trump's position in the matter of this thread's OP. Repeatedly, I've posted I'm for Cruz but not against Trump because of how DT's running press interference is benefitting TC.

I admit to being puzzled by your attack on me.
