Thank you for referencing that article Hojczyk. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Americans, including Trump, need to take the Constitution out of its gift wrapping and get themselves up to speed with the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers.

“Cherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves. It seems to be the law of our general nature.” - Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)

Just wasting your time, like you waste everybody else’s.

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".

Spot on.

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

Well to TRY to be fair here, he’s kind of between a rock and a hard place.

Sure, a $11+ billionaire is going to say “WE have not been treated fairly.”

In a way it would be true, but it would also be to invite catcalls.

Of course you get that by generating your own meaning of the word “honest.”

This country needs a President who will put some backbone in Congressional Republicans. The past two elections, we have given a mandate to the Congress to stop Obama at every turn and we get sold out each time. Especially bad with the present Congress. Trump is the ONLY one running today that has even a small chance to do this.

Keep scratching your head in confusion nick. You don’t understand what’s happening. You will need to remedy your myopia before you’ll begin to understand what’s happening. You are attempting to understand this election cycle in terms of the last few cycles.

The things you say just don’t matter.

I know. He’s a clown. Thought I’d waste his time like he wastes ours with the same ol’ unsolicited cr@p over and over again.

IF I were advising him, I’d suggest Trump say “The people” or maybe “We the people” bringing to mind the way the US constitution begins.

But as potential gaffes go, this is petty.

You do know that the Republican Party itself has supported a single-payor system.

Sorry teacher but it seems, "you people", or you, "Teachers", bought into it too.☺ Of course most teachers are unionized and on the government payroll, so no surprise.

Bless your little heart. Go to that other site where they hate Mr. Trump as much as you do. Why do you hate him so much? I am very curious.

Trump’s position is an odd mix of plutocracy and populism.

He’s not shying away from the fact that he turned millions into billions. He concludes, probably rightly, that this means he deserves to be viewed as an authority on things economic.

And you get where you are by applying your own definition of “conservative”, which you apparently believe includes acceptance and endorsement of socialist single-payer healthcare, land grabbing, crony capitalism, support of far-left liberal kooks like Pelosi, Reid and Clinton, and support of far-left gun bans initiated by anti-gun zealot Dianne Feinstein.

“Donald Trump is an arrogant blowhard(per a poll).”

Ohhhh... a polll. Well, if a poll said that, then my mind is changed.

BTW, “confidence” is not “arrogance”.
