Yours is the voice for the status quo

you could not be more wrong...I mean, that's so ridiculous as to expose the intellectual weakness of your argument, which is abysmal. Cronyism IS the status quo. Kelo IS the status quo. Greasing palms IS the status quo. So was Stimulus, TARP and the auto bail outs.

Tell me genius, tell me how I'm the voice of the status quo when you're the one supporting a guy who's hip deep in the status quo????

Because you are railing against the ONLY guy that doesn't fit the old model AND is presenting a serious threat to that model.

You need to separate private from public sector when discussing cronyism and the greasing of palms. Trump is a business man and to be successful in business you must play by the rules of the game as long as those rules do not violate law. Pprivate sector is about private money and if Trump can get a favorable deal from a contractor by offering him a free apartment in one if his own bldgs it is no concen to anyone else since what he is giving away is his. Not so in public sector where slimeball polls are handing out MY money and that of other tax payers as well.

When Trump first said he was thinking about running, no one knew if it was going to be as a Democrat or Republican...

And he could have run as either and it wouldn’t have been a surprise to most.

I still can’t believe so many here are all in for Trump based on his new conservative persona ignoring the years of history that is anything but conservative. A history that reveals no core principles short of promoting himself and making the “deal”.

Very disturbing.
