I did hear him say he wanted to bring back jobs from China and Mexico. I’m a watcher, I like what the Donald says, I agree what he says, but I do remember the democrat decoy, Ross Perot.

.....Or Mr. Trump could be the one who ends this “PC” nonsense garbage once and for all.

"One of us is not Tea Party. Is it you or me?"

My guess is that it's you. And here is why

From an other tread

Yes he is a Chamber of Commerce guy, they all are except Trump. They have to be Chamber of Commerce guys because that is where most of the $$$$ comes from to fund a winning campaign. Walker is the CoC number 1 backup candidate should Jeb fail miserably with the primary voters. There are other backup candidates like Perry, Linda, Chirsty, etc.

The CoC nightmare candidate is Trump. Trump must be stopped by any means. They would be unhappy with either of the Wacko Birds too (Paul, Cruz) but the idea of Trump getting elected makes their heads explode.

The CoC had everything planed to perfection. Jeb vrs Hillary, win win for the CoC since there is not a dine worth of policy difference between the two. And then along came the 10 billion dollar man, Donald Trump. He ruined everything. He can't be bought, he can't be bribed, he's not politically correct and horror of horrors he tells the truth!

The word is out, attack Trump or lose the big money donors the CoC controls. Which is why there appears to be a contest to see who can best attack Trump. Even Cruz joined in by praising John McCain and stating he was "proud to serve along side him". Now this is the same McCain that called Cruz and "wacko bird" on the Senate floor, called the voters that elected Crux "tea party hobbits" and just recently called his own constituents in Az "crazies" for supporting Trump.

If the CoC has enough power to make Cruz kiss McCain butt they are a force to be taken very seriously.

Interesting. After 17 years on Free Republic, I find we are supporting Donald Trump? The guy has backed both Hillary and Obama. The guy has backed immigration. The guy has backed abortion. The guy has backed gay marriage. The guy has backed Obamacare. Let any other candidate try to walk that back and it its not going to happen. I hope this is just a vocal minority of Freepers. Watching the crazy lady with the shopping cart scream is interesting for a short time but quickly loses its appeal.

I call astroturfing.

The effete media is trying to lower poll numbers before the debate.

If he had dropped would would have seen a flash poll now.

Nobody gives a poop about the talking head class.

The medium is the message.

Oh the old I signed up before you did argument. Epic Fail. Support your position with logic, and use facts, objective facts to advance your argument and the I might listen to what you have to say.

Is trump perfect? No. Not even close, but he is the best we got this go around.

Yeah you're an idiot. Read my post. It had a lot of info associated with it that didn't have anything to do with my years here. That being the only thing you saw indicates to me why Trump holds you in thrall.
