LOL, where did you get your talking points? Might want to fact check that.

Trump proposes massive one-time tax on the rich

Back in 2000 in your book “The America We Deserve” you wrote “The Republicans walk the NRA line and refuse to even limited restrictions. I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I also support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun.” His own words sounds weak on the 2nd amendment to me.

Donald Trump wants to replace Obamacare with a single-payer health care system, GOP congressman says
This one is great because you get to see the flip and the flop.

He also said that he changed his position on abortion after knowing people who chose not to abort their child
This one is him being for abortion, before he was against it and flipping on single payer. That is called a twofer

Pesky things these facts, they are all verifiable

I would hope every single person that met people who did not choose abortion to change there pro abort minds to anti abort.

You? Or is it okay and better if trump had said something like "screw em, I'm still for abortion."?

No, hon, they aren’t.

Tax plan - https://www.donaldjtrump.com/positions/tax-reform

Second Ammendment - https://www.donaldjtrump.com/positions/second-amendment-rights

GOP Congressman as a source? Listen to Trump, insurance across state lines, competition.

Abortion - just one quote. Donald Trump shocked attendees at the conservative CPAC conference in February when he declared himself pro-life after years of supporting the pro-abortion position. Several months ago, when questioned about his position, Trump responded by saying the public “would be surprised” by his stance and, in an interview with Laura Ingraham from Fox News leading up to the conference, Trump characterized himself as “pro-life” and he repeated that apparent reversal when he told the audience at CPAC, “I am pro-life” and pledged to fight for the reversal of ObamaCare, which contains abortion funding loopholes.
As the 2012 race intensifies, pro-life advocates must call upon Donald Trump to further explain his stand on important pro-life issues like Supreme Court nominations and repeal of the pro-abortion Obama healthcare law.

So, do you pick and choose over 40 years of public life or listen to where he stands now and, by the way, has for at least 15 years.

KInd of sounds like he is still in favor of it here. I mean if you are willing to appoint a proabortion extremist liberal to the Supreme Court.
Trump says his pro-abortion sister would make ‘phenomenal’ Supreme Court justice

See post 86 for his willingness to insure babies are murdered.
Do more research, He flipped just like I said he did. and your own post proves me correct.

I don't see trump appointing his sister to anything.

YMMV

Keep on grasping, soon you will be gasping, then just standing there agape.

'So'kay, we've got your back, anyway.

Trump had and has no intention of appointing his sister to the Supreme Court...I think you probably know that...

Little to nothing will change with any of the other candidates as president. With Trump there will be a president who will get the job done. No big donors and GOPe to hold him back from his policy objectives.

And..........

Wall built...illegals deported....pro-American trade....jobs...jobs...jobs!

No more PC crap and media will be on losing end of politics finally.

Strong military .... proper treatment of Vets.

Sorry, I don’t like your simplistic view of Freepers who don’t donate. Some of us, below poverty level, simply can’t, but we are not freeloading off people who work, either. I’m 75 - I don’t work any more, but I don’t take any money from those who do. People who have enough money to both eat and donate are real sure of themselves, aren’t they? You’d like us to get out of here, lest we offend you? Fine.

The sTrumpettes are a cult of personality, much like the Obozo supporters.

Haters gonna hate and you Cruz supporters sure do know how to hate.

God Bless you and I'm sorry you felt like one of those I target for derision.

Everyone know that there are some who are in no position to waste money that is required for day-to-day living. In your heart, you know your situation and I apologize for not allowing some of the true deadbeats to hide behind your situation by refusing to mention that there are many FReeloaders who spout all sorts of moralistic/conservative/Biblical principles and then neglect to do their part to support that in which they partake.

In the Bible, there were the beggars who were given charity and the poor who gave despite their poorness - then there were those who we are warned about in 2 Thesselonians:

6In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teachinga you received from us. 7For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you, 8nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. 9We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate. 10For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”

11We hear that some among you are idle and disruptive. They are not busy; they are busybodies. 12Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the food they eat. 13And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.

14Take special note of anyone who does not obey our instruction in this letter. Do not associate with them, in order that they may feel ashamed. 15Yet do not regard them as an enemy, but warn them as you would a fellow believer.

The concept is the same - those here who spend a lot of time pontificating without 'earning it" are doing so at the expense of those who do feel the personal responsibility and obligation to pay for what they believe in and use so often.

At any rate - my view may seem simplistic but it isn't aimed at those who can't afford it - to all of you who fall in the same situation (or similar) as CatDancer, I apologize if I have caused any discomfort or angst.

To all who have the means to donate something, but choose not to while using FR as their personal FaceBook page, no apologies for you - may you find the ability to feel shame and mend your leeching ways.
