Trump is waking up the sleeping silent majority.

And they're waking up on the wrong side of the bed.;-)

“Will he last, will it last, when will he implode.....” Tiresome, isn’t it?

Maybe it will be over for Trump when our anger subsides. >< sarc/

Trump - good words on immigration, lousy on taxes.

Why?

Trump supports the progressive tax code and has attacked Scott Walker for not RAISING taxes in Wisconsin....even though they are running a surplus.

Trump is meeting with Steve Forbes, Art Laffer, and Stephen Moore (economist with the Heritage Foundation) in a few weeks to hammer out tax policy.

Will probably be a flat tax.

Erik is misinformed. and you are correct

the meeting of the tax minds will result in a proposal that will start the momentum all over again on a different subject with different stellar advisors.

Consider Laffer..... he had the good sense to move from LA to Nashville.

Steve Forbes has promoted the tax for years and for good measure will promote as a part of it overall the medical savings account that will be a part of the Obamacare replacement

Stephen Moore, Heritage Foundation , Jim Demint strength

Trump is one upping hs competition by strong flanking measures that include the best of the best advisors.

Rather than talk about the past or issue talking points, Trump is doing...... now. When the asshole Steffie asks about substance, The Donal can cram the study group proposals up his aaaa

Actions speak louder than words

meanwhile..... go Scott

oh, and one more thing.....

that’s just what we know about.

We don’t yet know for instance, the retired generals and admirals on his advisor list.

We don’t yet know for instance, the physicians and congress types on his repeal and replace Obamacare advisor list

Gathering minds is a brilliant tactic

Yes, Trump met with Senator Jeff Sessions as well to talk immigration. But meetings do not make policy and Trump is not beholden to his word.

Trump is meeting with Forbes, Laffer and Moore only after he praised progressive taxes.

Now, Trump is attacking Gov Scott Walker for not raising taxes in Wisconsin.

Sorry, but those putting their faith in this smooth talker will regret it.

I’m an observer reporting my findings.

There might be regret, but it will be over President Trump

Go Scott!!

Trump: “He’s [Walker] stopped a lot of work because he doesn’t want to raise taxes, so instead of raising taxes he’s borrowing...”

THIS is what you support?

Trump sounds like a liberal who refuses to stop spending and will turn to tax increases first.

You get it!

The Art of Making a Deal, Trump is setting up The Deal with voters and he is doing a decent job.

He is telling you what you want to hear. Once he has the nomination, he will abandon all that talk.

You can already tell....when he is in Detroit he talks about stopping Ford from building a plant in Mexico (real capitalist) because its a union audience......when he talks to conservatives, like Mark Levin, he talks about a strong military.

This guy will say anything to get your support and will not feel an iota of guilt when he changes his mind.

When you complain, he will say you are not thinking like he is thinking.

Trump isn't responsible for the voices in your head.

——Trump is setting up The Deal ——

: )

Ok lets play with that thought..... The Deal? how about an adjective?

New Deal? no that’s been taken

Big Deal...... that’s getting there

Are you mental? Did you not hear Trump's attack on Gov Walker? Did you not comprehend what Trump was saying?

You support a progressive tax and spend liberal, yet say we have voices in our heads.

“I'll make this country great again.”

How about “The Great Deal”?

Ah, so it’s “Walker who must not be criticized”. Voting for a winner who scares the crap out of the GOPe, not the person Erik wants to date.
