tough situation, but we are a nation, as I said yesterday, we’re a nation of laws

Since when does the Supreme Court make laws? This might be a deal breaker for me. Surrendering legislative power to the judiciary is not acceptable. If he is not willing to fight this battle, then maybe he's not willing to take on the court if it rules against him on other issues.

It's beginning to look like its Cruz or Lose.

Rand Paul and Huckabee were both very good yesterday.

But Trump is no polished speaker. He throws pieces of thoughts together. He spoke of an accommodation: “let somebody else in the office do it...”

The Scotus ruled on homosexual marriage. But they didn’t rule on how their ruling had to be implemented.

Rand Paul’s idea of individuals signing contracts and filing those contracts is an excellent idea. We do pre-nups already, so why not just go there for everyone. The get their lawyers, and they sign their contract, and they file it, and all the clerk’s office has to do is record the filing of a contract. Then the couple does or doesn’t have a wedding.

I’d love to see the major denominations agree on a unified matrimony certificate that can be acquired only from those participants, can only be heterosexual, and any denomination’s access can be revoked if they even hint at deviating from the agreement.

"It's beginning to look like its Cruz or Lose."

Cruz is a globalist amnesty pimp, with Trump gone and he is gone unless he walks this back, there is no one left to vote for.

Great post. I know it won't change the mind of many of the Trump supporters, but hopefully some of the more reasonable FReepers will understand that Trump is no conservative.

When Trump was first asked about Kim Davis at his press conference yesterday he said he didn't know enough about it, which sounds very similar to "it's above my paygrade."
