A great summary of Trump's positions in his own words.

Not looking for a god just a President capable of making America great again:-)
Well even if small... he’s not donating to Democrats any MORE.
“Trump turned to a government agency – the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) – to take Coking’s property….”
Good thing too. It would totally ruin his campaign.
And this may not even be so small. It may be a realization that yes, the Elephant Party has in some sense now got his back. Might be a fickle relationship right now, still better than none.
He’s given the GOP a chance to be the good guys. I think they’ll even do it, if grudgingly. Because Trump is going to prompt an outpouring of public attention that the whole gaggle of politicians in Washington could only wish to get. And politicians are limelight prostitutes. Almost kind of like in Psalm 2, “Kings feign obedience to me.”
“The question is how much has he stood on principle and how much has flipped and flopped on issues over the years. His donations to so many democrats call this into question.”
I believe you are speaking for yourself.
I perfectly understand his donations to democrats. It is the way the system works.
That “make America great again” crap may resonate with those at the same point on the Bell curve where those who sought “hope and change” reside, but personally I find it an insult to our intelligence.
We have here a genuinely contentious issue, where strong positions are taken one way or the other.
It turned out however that Trump didn’t. And she sat in her incongruous neighborhood, like she wanted, till the day she died.
I am not sure what kind of analogy could be drawn to the duties of a president, at any rate.
Yeah, I agree...the system is corrupt.
LOL, I agree.
And that’s maybe how the herd of cats that is the GOP will finally get reunited in purpose. Behind the open can of tuna fish that is Donald Trump.
You can’t make Cruz responsible for what Roberts went on to do probably under duress.
Just imagine, though, supposing it’s true.
And Trump has a more plausible mechanism for this than the airy fairy unicorn riders ever did. I keep on pointing it out over and over. It is the deal mechanism. With a very real We The People.
We need some kind of consortiums to be coordinated around this, IMHO.
Here is where I am foggy, but I think I remembered people digging up a crypto-activist side of Roberts even BEFORE this went down.
I hope you will post this every day until the election.
Like your post ... making a small suggest ... for emphasis in the future try < i > italics versus caps ... just a thought but don’t stop posting ...
Of course he did. That is our legal system. If you don’t like it, change the law. The Supreme Court upheld this in Kelo.
I don’t hate Donald Trump, I don’t trust or believe him.
Don't you mean 2016? After all in the very first debate of 2015 he talked about how well he thinks universal health care works. The opposite of the stance that produced the 2014 congressional landslides, and similar to the stance that produced the 2012 Romney flop. Many more examples of Trump talking acting liberal since 2011 have been reported. I'm happy to accept converts to conservatism, but I don't trust them to positions of great responsibility until their conversion has been proven by time and smaller responsibilities. For that matter, although the old saying goes "A conservative is a liberal who's been mugged by reality," where is the evidence Trump has ever been mugged by liberalism? In so far as I can tell he's done quite well under liberalism and has no personal experience, unlike many of his supporters, of the harm it causes.
