Trump is the only politician in existence who could say, “We love the poorly-educated,” and be understood to mean, “We love the poorly-educated.”

Goldman...

Title:Study: Trump investments underperformed in 2015

“Trump also argued that several of his individual stock picks, like Apple and Goldman Sachs, have done very well for him.

“I hit the market exactly perfectly,” he said.”

Title:Know Who Else Has Received Loans from Citibank and Goldman Sachs? Donald Trump.

http://www.redstate.com/leon_h_wolf/2016/01/21/know-else-received-loans-citibank-goldman-sachs-donald-trump/

“He’s made the nonsensical claim repeatedly that Ted Cruz can’t “protect people” from Citibank or Goldman Sachs or whoever, because he has taken out loans from them or personally guaranteed loans to his campaign from them.”

“As for Goldman Sachs, Trump is himself a shareholder in Goldman Sachs, which means he has a direct financial interest in its success. One would think that would make Trump even less enthusiastic about protecting me from Goldman Sachs (whatever that means) than Cruz would.”

Trump’s not hidden his GS stock holdings (hey, I own a bit too! It’s been a good investment). Good for him on picking stocks like Apple and GS when they were good buys - that’s why I like the guy, he actually understands economics.

Cruz? He hid his $1,000,000 loan (a lot of money to a guy like Cruz) - and tried to keep his wife’s employment by GS on the down-low. GS isn’t just a huge line of credit for him - it’s the primary income of his family.

You tell me which is more beholden to GS...

Yep.

At this point, the word “conservative” is totally open to being redefined by the actions of a given person, because that actions of those who called themselves “conservatives” have rendered it meaningless.

Building a wall on the southern border is conservative.

Stopping the muslim invasion of my country is conservative.

Ending political correctness is conservative.

Returning America to Americans is conservative.

I just don't understand everyone's inconsistency this year.

Speaking only for myself, nationalism that puts "America first" is more important than a "conservative" that's as deeply embedded in the GOPe as anyone that's ever run before.

Not to mention any of the other things about him that I was uncomfortable about him with.

I'm not bashing him here, just explaining that he's not the guy I think America needs right now.

Reading the comments on this article at theblaze was hilarious, but sad.

The majority of the people over there think their candidate deserves a place next to the Founding Fathers the way they speak of him.

I’m doing my best to be gracious in victory but why so many people can’t see what is so obvious to anyone not blinded by the idea of “principled conservative”, who really isn’t is beyond me.

I’ve been wrong before and I might be wrong this time, but I don’t think I am and my conscience is clear on my choice of a candidate for president.
