If he wanted to run as a Democrat, he would already have done it.

And when have you seen a liberal have good things to say about the Tea Party?

Donald Trump is running as a Republican.

People like him and your opinion is the minority one.

Just like they didn’t vet Obama.

Trump’s biggest asset is he’s already famous.

Then you would be wrong. That site hates Mr. Trump. I go over there when I think about it. There have been several threads about him and not a one was complimentary. From what I have read, they do not like anything he has said.

If he wanted to run as a Democrat, he would already have done it.

He threatened to run as a Democrat and Independent before. The only reason he is running as a Republican is that he can't get the attention he could running as a Republican. in 2012 and 2016, there were already strong leaders in the race, not open fields like the GOP. Plus, in Democratic primaries, it's all about the connections you already have, you just can't waltz in and run. He'd never be able to do what he's done, as far as attention, running as a Democrat. He isn't running as a Republican because of his ideology, just because that is where he can get the attention.

And when have you seen a liberal have good things to say about the Tea Party?

He never said anything remotely like that until he needed them. Purely mercenary. There isn't a shred of his alleged conservative beliefs that dates back farther than him needed to run as a Republican. Can you deny that?

Donald Trump is running as a Republican.

But he will drop out as soon as he squeezes everything out he can.

People like him and your opinion is the minority one.

There is a silent majority that doesn't like him. Some of them don't want to post because of the bullying, but I hear from them.

Answer me this: At an event last week Trump said 23 times that he is, “very smart.” Do you know anyone who would say that 23 times? Can you explain that to me?

So you go to DU regularly and I don't. I think it's funny you criticize me when you go onto a liberal site.

By the way, of course they hate him now, because the media told him to. But if they knew his core beliefs, they would like him.

Do they hate that he wants the Confederate flag banned? Did they hate him when he said Bush was to blame for everything? Did they hate him when he said how great Obama was going to be? Did they hate him when he said abortion should be taken out of the political arena? (i.e. that pro-lifers should not be allowed)

Yes, just like they didn’t vet Obama. Trump is Obama v 2.0. He’s a liberal narcissist who has supporters that don’t want him vetted.

But seriously, this is a rather open admission that Trump is NOT a TEA Party conseravtive. He doesn't say "we", he says "you people".

Seriously??

He’s a liberal and a liar. Why do you support him? Just because the media claims he’s conservative?

I actually enjoy you speaking your mind. It makes me defend my thoughts and I think considering another point of view helps clarify my own opinion.

So far I’m for Trump basically because he is saying what I think and he pretty much is the only one saying it. Besides, he does have the advantage of being his own man and I believe his pride in being an American is offended by our truly pathetic leadership. Not that long ago some executive said that when he went to the WH he had to deal with people he’d never hire for his own company. Well, at least Trump is willing to do something beyond complain.

At this point he gets the benefit of the doubt with me.

“He has no intention of running...”

The mind reading skills are strong in this one.

Jeb has attacked the tea party several times, and has said he plans to win without them. Not to mention attacking Governor Brewer for trying to enforce the border.

Trump is openly supporting the tea party and is promising to seal the border.

I’m still waiting to hear exactly what does he mean when he says he is the very best candidate on women’s issues, and where he stands on some of the other social issues. I’m waiting for confirmation of his plans for IRS. So the deal isn’t closed yet. Until it is I’m with Cruz. But I’m listening.

I have a feeling its going to be Trump and Cruz together.

Trump is a TEA Party conservative? lol!

Do you think he told them he supported far-left kook Harry Reid over TEA Party candidate Sharron Angel in 2010?

I’m tired of panties. Your statement about us who cheer and appreciate Trumps honesty are been lable by as socialist. I lived is a socialist counter and I know a socialist when I see one. I have also defended this great country in 2 different wars. I’m not a socialist. Let’s just enjoy his campaign season we are all on the same team. Love you

” You support Trump, and you call me immature? “ ————

I support Trump, and you ARE immature. (I don’t care how hold you are.)

To troll Trump threads, is similar to a child being a pest nagging for his cookie. Would you rather I call you something else?

Your spin on trolling is Jorge Ramos line about a right to defend your country. LOL! And, implying that Trump supporters are not.

Why don’t you just go post anti-Trump threads and draw your tiny crowd of 10-19 over there?

Anyway, it has become a caricature activity that has caused some degree of humor from time to time, and that you seem to think that what you say makes us care. Good luck with that. :)

You saying Trump is a socialist means that you do not know what the definition of socialist is or you are a troll...

That’s OK with me. He isn’t tea party or conservative, but at least acknowledges we haven’t been treated well and he is in alignment with me on the most important issue, stopping The Cheap Labor Express.

He may be our only chance to stop the illegal alien inundation.

If Americans aren’t tired of being stepped on, mocked and expected to pay for the Communist dreams of Democrats, we don’t deserve a free country.

**************
There comes a time when you have to take a stand. If not now, then when? The Tea Party showed what can be done when people unite for change. It gave the House to Republicans who promptly stabbed us in the back. But we won’t allow the GOP to do that to us again. Not this time.

I doubt a conservative would be appreciated at DU, but Trump might be. I am 100% fiscally and socially conservative.
____________________________________________

And yet you’re spouting the same talking points as the media and GOPe.

Sorry nick, but you’re full of sh*t. Why is it you’re never out here pushing “your guy”? Why are you always trolling Trump threads dropping your trollish stink bombs?

You’d fit in perfectly at DU. Reading your posts is like listening to the Lame Stream Media and GOPe...you guys are all trying to destroy Trump.

Interesting Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin have both praised Trump.

Trump is no conservative. His honest followers admit that. They don't care that he isn't, but they will admit it.

It depends on your definition of conservative.

All I really care about is whether Trump looks like he will carry through on his objective of getting rid of illegal immigrants. If he accomplishes that in his term, and accomplishes nothing else, I will be happy. If he doesn't accomplish that, then I will be unhappy no matter what else he does.

Trump has identified and articulated the most important issue facing conservatives.

I may make many people here upset by saying this, but the most important issue facing the US today is not pornography. Nor is it gay marriage. Nor is it even abortion.

The most important issue is the PERMANENT demographic electoral changes which continued immigration will impose. Every year which passes, we get millions of new Democrat voters. If this is not reversed, by 2024, no conservative will ever win a national election again.

At the point where demographics makes the Left electorally secure, you will REALLY see changes. You will see age of consent lowered so that your sons may be preyed upon by gays, and if YOU try to interfere, YOU will be locked up. You will see minority gangs rule your suburban neighborhoods, transplanted there by Section 8. You will see your Christian churches shut down and all the property seized if they commit the "hate crime" of preaching ANYTHING which goes against the Left's agenda.

Unless we deal with illegal immigration, we will all lose, and lose for all time.
