Jim Geraghty dives down the memory hole to remind us what Donald Trump was saying just a few short years ago, in an interview with Larry King:...

He says that “He’s going to build a wall, secure the border, deport illegals, repeal Obamacare, cut taxes for working people, and protect the second amendment, rebuild the military and defend Christianity”
says the person supporting an ineligible candidate.
Hurry up Cruzers!
The dog whistle has been blown.
Insert “says he’s” between “He’s” and “going.”
And that’s where we are. Time will tell.
Personally, I like most others in this forum would be happy to vote for either Trump or Cruz in the next election. If the Democrats hold the presidency after the next election the country will be toast. The real goal is still to defeat the Democrats. I understand that Cruz has taken several major hits in the last couple of weeks and I expect that this will take its toll. I hope that I am wrong but to be honest I feel like his candidacy has been mortally wounded. So maybe it is understandable that in the last couple of weeks many Cruz fanatics here seem to have literally lost their minds. But some of what is being said by them is just plain scary... We can’t afford to sit out the next election; the Democrats must be defeated.
“He’s going to build a wall, secure the border, deport illegals, repeal Obamacare, cut taxes for working people, and protect the second amendment, rebuild the military and defend Christianity—but he’s not conservative enough. Right.”
What would ever give you the idea that Trump is going to do what’s on your list? or any of it? Because he said so? He’s been on the other side of all these issues and has supported and contributed to those who are for open borders, amnesty, obamacare as well as single payer, higher taxes was for the “assault weapon” ban, pro abortion, etc. etc. etc. Donald Trump is not nor has he ever been Conservative. I don’t see how anyone can find him credible.
I don’t trust Trump nearly as much as Cruz but still much more than Hillary.
There is always a chance that Trump is a Liberal plant who has calculated what the opposition wants and runs with it. Only to revert back to the left in full once elected. This way the left would win no matter which side “Won” the election.
It seems unlikely that this is the case. But it is possible.
No, he’ll just deny that he ever promised anything.
But Ted Cruz would never lie, is that it? not about loans from Goldman Sachs or his ties to Goldman Sachs or about his positions on immigration issues or about his citizenship status. is that it?
It's a question of being able to discuss it intelligently afterwards without having to listen repeatedly to make a transcript as you go along.
Look at the discussion thread for yourself. It's basically no analysis at all, just a bunch of comments saying "that guy is right" from people who already supported Trump.
Frankly, I think it is intellectually lazy on the part of the guy who made the video not to put his analysis into writing.
“As a matter of fact, imagine that, he’s saying everything you want to hear, right? Amazing! He’s perfect, right?
There’s a sucker born every minute. “
Yes there is. Tell us again what GS boy Cruz, buddies with John Roberts, supporter of fast track TPP for Obama has told you recently.
I think he’ll abide by the deal.
I agree that all videos should have a transcript. Surely one exists. I am going on facebook and ask the author for the transcript.
“Ted Cruz, a sitting U.S. Senator, supported H1V Visas (Amnesty)”
They’re called “H1-B” visas, and they have nothing to do with amnesty.
BTW, your boy Trump is a HUGE supporter of H1 visas, because he uses them to import cheap foreign workers for his hotel and casino empire.
How did you feel about Mitt’s supposed changes of heart four years ago? That’s what I thought.
I never said I had a guy. I don’t.
I think it’s actually a she. But I don’t see such an insecure person being a strongman.
Sarah sold her soul but think of all the ethanol Trump is going to pump out with our tax money. Good times coming.
I agree trump will be the federal swartzenegger... while he has stayed steadfast in the primaries his track record is not very good
