Calpublican: You miss the appeal of Trump...first candidate out of the box with the courage to call illegal immigration for what it is...nobody else did..he has led consistently on this issue since Day 1...the only candidate that is for putting the American worker first, and by extension all Americans. Has been consistently against TPP from it’s inception. The only candidate talking about reforming the VA and supporting our vets. Is for a full repeal of Obamacare, for tax reform, and has been a solid supporter of 2A issues. Trump is running on a strong conservative platform.
I like Ted. Ted is a solid conservative and would be a good President. However, from a leadership perspective, this is no contest. The anti-Trump crowd gets wrapped up in either minor issues like Trump’s past support of Kelo or fixates on his 8 year stint as a Democrat in the 2000’s. Our country is falling apart. I could care less if Trump was advocating for eminent domain as a businessman. My government practices eminent domain against me every day. They steal my wages, they steal my privacy, they steal my retirement, they are stealing my kids’ futures, they are trying to steal my right to self defense. If anyone wants to get upset about some buildings and highways, so be it. As for Trump being a Democrat for a time, who cares? He is running as a conservative now. He can govern like one and be a great president, or he can govern against how he campaigned and he’ll be a one termer...If he builds the damn wall, throws out the illegals and creates jobs he’ll be considered a great President. But if one can claim Trump will not govern as a conservative, I can give counterpoints as to how Ted will not exactly govern as a conservative. H1 Visas, he sidesteps what he will do with the 30 million illegals here, Corker bill, TPP, funded by Hedgefunds and Super PACs. And Jane Long is right, let Ted meet a payroll. Ted is at heart a lawyer and therefore by definition he is slick and not to be trusted. It’s great to give speeches on the floor and have nobody follow you. Getting something done and leading is quite another.
And in the same paragraph you state that Cruz "would be a good president" I am getting pretty use to Trumpets talking out both sides of their mouth.
Great, diplomatic post, usafa92.
I’m to the point where I’ve lost patience in dealing with the deranged comments of those suffering the most, from TDS.
It’s a shame that’s who Cruz has supporting him, here. (If, in fact they really do support him. They’re doing him no favors.)
You’re right. I miss the appeal of Trump but will vote for him if he is the candidate.
Kudos to your post!
You have the facts and the essence of who Trump is...and why he is drawing thousands to his rally!
