In addition to his donation to Hillary, Donald also contributed to Chuckie Schumer, Kristen Gillibrand, gave to Kerry when he ran against Bush, gave money to Harry Reid to keep him as Majority leader, gave $116k to the Democratic Senatorial Committee...
Now there will be many who will say he was just a pragmatic businessman greasing palms on both sides of the aisle, and you may be right. But that certainly calls into question his credentials as a conservative.
Donald was looking out for Donald, not trying to support people who would work for conservative principles. So why would we believe that would change once he was in the White House? Just because he is now saying the things that you want to hear? Where is there any evidence he actually believes in those things, let alone that he will actually act on those things if elected?"
Exactly. Thank you. He's spent his lifetime selling out his "principles." He won't stop now.
"I don't think people who are supporting Trump are dumb, just frustrated with all of the politics as usual crowd. But the last time the country elected someone who said the "right things" without any record to back it up, we wound up with Obama..."
Yes, they're desperate. But some have allowed their desperation to carry them away...far, far away. When you see Donald Trump hailed as the next Reagan, Churchill, or William Wallace (yes, I did see that), it's really time to step back and take a deep breath.
I don't know if that will happen, though. Trump fans just refuse to address any of the facts laid out for them, just as you see on this thread. The guy is telling them he's a Democrat, but it doesn't matter.
It's incredible.
It’s just a replay of every FR election season. Same as always. Cattle stampede.
DU? You’re the one who can’t wait to vote for a Democrat.
And you don’t have the mettle to address it and explain why. You just avoid the issue.
“May you live in interesting times”
Yeah, thanks a lot for whoever came up with that one (can’t recall)...
Conscious I think but not sure. I always heard it called ‘The ancient Chinese curse” though.
Oh, it is that, definitely.
The article u posted is a tour de force of lying, biased, pejorative nonsense. From start to finish.
Since u so kindly asked, let me give a few, not most, examples:
Trump’s name recognition and contentious remarks are responsible for his showing in “pop” polls.- meant to disparage both his message and the validity of the polling
Trump is a “draft dodger” - he got deferments like anyone else in college or university and got a medical deferment. Not a f’ing draft dodger u liar.
Trump presided over 4 major business failures. - and hundreds of absolute major business triumphs not mentioned.
McCain brilliantly responded to Trump - lol nuff said
An appeal to the authority of Victor Davis Hanson- therefore Trump is bad, bacause VDH says so?
How does Trump measure up to the gold standard of Reagan?- i don’t know, maybe we should ask Hillary, Jeb, or TNMOUTH? How do the democrap frontrunners measure up?
Trump is a rodeo clown- i guess in the sense that he stands in front of the enraged idiotic bull charging and then lets it harmlessly go flying by without getting injured. Guess who the bull represents ? Ya you and your troll cohort.
Trump not a patriot.- ok need some proof for that one. Do you have any proof norm or Catherine or tn mouth?
Trump a snake oil quack charletan like Alex Jones- why not like Obama? Or Kerry, or Hillary, or Bush? Because Trump is not like them i guess...
Perot is far more statesman-like?- really? What’s a statesman like? Like Obama or Hillary or Jeb?
You and Norm and Catherine (maybe i was too hard on ca conservative), are foolish, transparent trolls who have no other purpose here than to libel and slander Trump. You would love for FR to think u are all in for Cruz the 4% wonder and just trying to show Trump has flaws. B.S!
I know why you keep pushing support for Cruz, etc., and it is not for his conservative bona fides. It is because u wish to push support for anyone with no chance of winning against Hillary or any other democrat such as Jeb Bush.
You suck and i hereby call you out, you losers.
That’s why I believe Bush will do much better in the primary race than most FReepers think.
Remember Op Chaos?
Hillary is basically running unopposed on the D side...
You lie
Mmmhmmm. Right.
Lumping you back in with the trolls.
You are all in for the uniparty.
Ever notice u trolls play echo-chamber in an effort to deceive others into thinking you have support for your ridiculous charade?
Yah, what a bunch of stupid cattle eh “Normie”?
He just explained the way this works in defining Jeb’s little fundraising trip to the Hamptons last weekend. You give money to both sides and you expect services to be rendered. The Cartel will be happy with either Jeb OR Hillary! It matters to them not a whit. He KNOWS the elitist class. He was ONE of them and now they all hate him for having the temerity to think he might take the brass ring.
Hillary would be better than Jeb because there’s a good chance she’d blunder and we could impeach her. Jeb would be more effective at keeping the power dynamic intact.
It’s a pleasure to enjoy the leading candidate in my party for the first time in years. Trump is #1.
Again, just for good measure, who’s #1? Wait what? Yep you read it right, #1.
You’re a liar. Go back to DU.
If u cannot understand why Democrats, Republicans, liberaltariens, blacks, legal immigrants, etc. are polling for Trump, then you should just vote for the status quo.
That’s right, status quo. How’s that working out for you, Catherine? Norm? Mouth? CA?
You folks want the status quo?
Good for you, but i guarantee most Americans do not want it.
That is why you folks are going to lose, AGAIN!
Well don’t act like a herd animal. Facts are facts. Read them and learn who you are voting for. If you still want the guy, vote for him. Don’t just go with the herd. Liberals do that.
Lots of ‘the herd’ went with Romney Mitch and Jonbon and now regret it or cry and cry about what they brought on us all.
What you could do first though is back up your accusations toward me or retract them.
Ever notice As many people agree with me as not?
Ever notice I post facts?
So prove it. Don’t just say it Barry. Prove it.
GO TRUMP GO CRUZ GO PALIN!!!!
Trump is #1 !!!!
