I’m saying that 4 year old articles belong in chat. You can take from that what you will.
That said, I’m also enjoying watching the collective butthurt of TDS sufferers. Even if I have zero intention of voting for Trump or indeed any other candidate on the ballot.
Trump (and CRUZ) only ones speaking out against the ‘usual politics’.
Go ahead and support the rest of the ‘political droids’ running.
You’ll get more of the same that you’ve seen the past 30 years.
“And theyre strangely silent about Cruz voting in favor of TPP...hmmm?”
Lots of motes and beams at FR of late. Also lots of sound and fury, amounting to nothing
This is a thread about Trump, if you wish, you can open another thread on Ted Cruzs support of the TPP.
____________________________________________
So, you don’t want to address why Cruz (a Republican Senator) voted for TPP in past few of months, but want to make an issue of what Donald thought of ED as a private citizen four years ago?
You are a FREAKING HYPOCRIT!
I understand the passion for defending one’s chosen candidate. That is partly why I have chosen to wait as long as possible before choosing. I want to wait until all the little details about everyone come out. Until they have their chance to respond. And until I can ponder all of it for a nice long time.
Age has that effect.
I predicted during that election that Fred would be doing Depends commercials after the election.
Was I far off?
I never thought he would make a good president, and I thought his record in congress proved it.
You like mushy-middlers, but FR is about real conservatives.
.
I don’t agree that looking at a candidates long record of having contempt for most things Conservatives hold dear is “TDS”.
In 2004 John Kerry’s words and actions from 30 years earlier were used against him, and righfully so IMO.
If Hillary claimed to be a Conservative and ran for the GOP nomination would Conservatives be right to take all her claims at face value and trust her? That is just wbat Trumpkins are doing.
RE: What did the courts say?
Again eminent domain is a very little issue relative to sell out of American wealth that both parties have committed through low tariffs and off shoring.

Let’s first look at those who voted FOR the Kelo decision:
Stevens, joined by Kennedy, Souter, Ginsburg, Breyer
Those who voted AGAINST:
O’Connor, joined by Rehnquist, Scalia, Thomas
Thomas wrote the DISSENT against it.
Two articles by conservatives were written against the decision.
SEE HERE:
THE CASE AGAINST THE KELO DECISION PART 1
and here:
THE CASE AGAINST THE KELO DECISION PART 2
I can’t believe that I will find FReepers supporting the likes of Ginsburg and Breyer against Scalia and Thomas.
I strongly support Cruz, because his actions have consistently matched his words and he has an outstanding record as a Conservative.
Trump is just the opposite.
Just as an amusing aside, there is a piece of property right on a major intersection in Oakland California where all the major highways meet. You are probably seventy feet up, and if you look down, there is a squalid little home right smack dab in the middle of the freeway interchange. The owner held out since the mid 1960’s. It may be gone now, but was a textbook example of emminent domain vs the homeowner for years.
I cant believe that I will find FReepers supporting the likes of Ginsburg and Breyer against Scalia and Thomas.

And many of us cannot believe FReepers are carrying the water for the MSM and GOPe. Megyn Kelly, Erick Erickson, and the Liberal Talking Heads appreciate your support.
You folks have more venom for Trump than any of the Dem candidates! Truly pathetic!
.
>> “And Ted Cruz voted for TPP.” <<
.
After he had been promised by McConnell that no deal had been made. He was lied to.
Obviously you support the GOPe snake bag.

Hey, I said I am willing to discuss Cruz’s support of the TPP in another thread, what’s so hypocritical about that?
I’d be a hypocrite if I avoided discussing it altogether.
In the meantime, I’d like you to explain to me why Trump’s support for Kelo is OK by you...
And BTW, why is his support of it as a private citizen not relevant? I believe it is TOTALLY relevant. It goes to what you REALLY think about the role of government.
And 4 years ago is not that long ago. It is more recent than someone trying to dig up Romney’s cutting someone’s hair when he was in high school.
I strongly support Cruz, because his actions have consistently matched his words and he has an outstanding record as a Conservative.
Trump is just the opposite.
__________________________________________
Yet you dutifully ignore Trump voting for TPP, providing Obama unbridled power. Sure thing pal.
You have one standard for Trump, and another for Cruz.
Just pointing out your blatant hypocrisy.

>> “And theyre strangely silent about Cruz voting in favor of TPP...hmmm?” <<
.
And you’re an obvious troll!
.
And all the students at O.J. Simpson High agree with you.
And BTW, why is his support of it as a private citizen not relevant?

Nice diversion!
You simply will not address your blatant hypocrisy and double standard.
My comments about Cruz are perfectly relevant to this discussion and you know it.
Only DU'ers seem more upset about TPP than this guy.
Are you offended by my waiting to choose? What is it to you if I want to wait?
