Geeze, where have you been?

-Building a real wall to protect and defend the USA
-Fixing the VA
-re-negotiating all foreign trade deals
-deporting violent illegals
-making our military stronger


-Besties with the Clintons
-Disdain for property rights
-Support for “universal health care”
-Hiring illegals to build a hotel in DC while decrying the practice if hiring illegals

Good answers...thank you for the reasoned responses...you are one of the few Trump supporters who will answer questions honestly.

I love how you put the YUGE in there...sounds like what Trump would say :-) I really like his courage in business...I have read some of his books, they are pretty good.

Yes, immigration is a complex issue. But my issue with Trump supporters is that they say:oh, Trump is so tough on immigration” while he says hard working illegals can stay. Well, ins’t that a form of Amnesty?

You say he was against the 2nd 15 years ago...but are you sure about that? I thought he said something recently about guns that didn’t sit well with some. Still, we bash candidates who are weak on the 2nd...don’t white wash Trumps’s past opposition to that issue.

I know you say, like other Trump supporters, that we are a long way from details in the campaign. Yet, Cruz has laid out many of his plans in detail. Trump, for all of his bombast, really doesn’t answer questions straight on.

Bombing the palace of Quadaffi was one thing...but bombing oil fields without, say, opening up pipelines here is a fools errand. You can’t just bomb and hope it helps. Now, if he had said, bomb the palace in Iran...that would have been Reaganesque :-)

Finally, his recent history of party switching, political donations and affiliations with the Clintons troubles me. Perhaps he has changed. If he is truly the best man for the job, then I will support him in the generals.

Yeah, I remember “Reagan is nothing but an Actor, and a B Actor at that.”

Yes, I pretty much share the same questions as you. Trump’s interviews have been breathless and contentious nature and I hope that he’ll set up a time in the near future where he can lay out his plans in detail without the constant interruptions. If it sucks, I’m off the bandwagon.

Watch for the venom coming your way...

These “bastions of Conservatism” might seek to have you zotted too...

Just, don’t question Donald, ok? ;-)

My concern is that he won’t answer. He gives vague answers, even to Hannity, but never flushes out his beliefs...it concerns me.

It also concerns me that only in 2012, when he thought about running for Prez, did he start donating to Republicans.

I guess we will see. I am not convinced Donald will answer...his ego won’t allow it.

'Course I can. But I guarantee you, your attitude WILL -- saying again, WILL -- get you booted from this forum. You are an asshole, and we do not tolerate those.

Man, you Trumpers are sensitive and defensive

Jackass. I am not in favor of Trump being a candidate. I *AM* in favor of what he SAYS.

Wow, name calling someone and then tell ME I’d get kicked off this forum.

Who is going to boot me, you? Not hardly.

I tell the Truth about Trump and you can’t handle it.

Jim agrees with me about Trump.

If you like Trump for what he said, then you should have liked what the GOP told you in the midterms too.

I will take little sensitive people like you calling me an asshole if I am defending Conservatism on a CONSERVATIVE website.

LOL...

This phrase, when you employ it, means "I got my ass handed to me so I don't know what else to write."

Wow, name calling someone and then tell ME I’d get kicked off this forum.

Yup. You are an ass, and many people will agree with me. Your conduct is not acceptable to this forum.

Who is going to boot me, you? Not hardly.

You are correct. Not me. But I have an uncanny ability to pick out people who are destined to be booted. You are one such person.

I tell the Truth about Trump and you can’t handle it.

Bullship. I absolutely have no skin in trumps game. I don't care. I like what he says and -- especially -- how he says it. But I don't trust him.

It is your manner. You are behaving like a Dick. That is what will get you cut from the varsity team.

Jim agrees with me about Trump.

So do I, as a candidate. I don't trust trump. I do love how he's talking truth to power.

If you like Trump for what he said, then you should have liked what the GOP told you in the midterms too.

I did like what they said. I like what trump is saying even more.

I will take little sensitive people like you calling me an asshole if I am defending Conservatism on a CONSERVATIVE website.

You are hurting the cause of conservatism by being a joike.

Thank you! I have been engaged in the battle to preserve American values, long enough, to understand how the Left confuses the real issues--and how to counter that confusion.

Basically, it all comes down to perspective & focus. I try to explain this in what is probably the least read chapter in my Conservative Debate Handbook, but unfortunately it is the least read chapter. The mistake is always in allowing the foe to define the issues. (Of course the indoctrination in Leftwing premises, that typifies much of contemporary education, does not help.)

Nope. And when Jim showed up, you fled the thread.

Well, after 8 years of an America-hating communist who never had a real job, it might be refreshing to have a non-politician at the helm. Especially if he’s a successful capitalist.

But I’m still pulling for Cruz.

Loving every minute of the Trump fireworks show, though.

Post 125

I’m for Cruz myself. But lovin’ the grief Trump is inflicting on the ruling class by simply being straight forward and adamant with the truth. The libtards and RINOS scream and howl but Trump just keeps on stickin’ it to them.

Post 102

Trump is sticking it to the libs and RINOs like I haven’t seen anyone do in a long time. And all he’s doing is speaking truth! I love to see the libtards and RINOs howl!!

Go, Trump, GO!!

But I’m for Cruz for the long haul.

. Go, Crus, GO!!
