I still see CONSERVATIVE Trump supporters as the equivalent of a 19 year old that sneaks into a nudie bar and falls for a pole dancer and wants to marry her.

Her baggage will kill the marriage pretty fast.

“The quotes prove, beyond a doubt, that if you diligently comb through the records of a public persona over many decades, you can finds some instances in which they said some dumb things off the cuff, and changed their mind later.”

**************

The difference is these aren't “decades” old quotes. Just like the low info voters of 2008 with Obama, Trumps adherents are projecting what they want on an empty palette. They willingly choose to ignore what he says about many things while chasing the shiny object of a wall and someone that's not politically correct.

No what happened is the usual GOP water boys spend all their capital lying about Trump. After hearing so many lies from the usual suspects so long voters no longer believe anything the habitual liars choir say.

That the danger of being a habitual liar. People don’t listen even if one day they speak truth.

“If you’re not a liberal at 64, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative at 65, you have no brain”.

Erick was the one who went “ad hominem” when he withdrew Trump’s invitation to his own Red State Gathering, and then introduced Jeb Bush as “my friend Jeb Bush!”

All you Trump haters out there are going to come to a decision point when the inevitable becomes fact and Trump gets the nomination. Will you, like you all say if Cruz wins demand we Trump supporters vote for Cruz, vote for a nominated Trump in the end? That time is coming.

I will vote for Trump in my primary here in Georgia (and he will win the state) but if Cruz ends up the nominee, I’ll GLADLY and PROUDLY vote for him in the general election. Can you say the same about Trump? I think not.

Trump as Jim Jones is really unhinged and baseless.

Donald is motivated by raw patriotism. He has red white and blue collar support because people can see through all the hype and want action on borders, budget, military, political correctness and fair trade.

Trump is not owned by donors. He loathes politicians. He is a successful businessman, a builder. he is not a lawyer! Thank God!

People love to hate for a variety of self serving reasons. But when the dust settles, Trump will be on top and America will be great again!

Trump means what he says today? Ha and tomorrow he’ll change his mind again and says something totally different. He really has you by the nose and you don’t even recognize it.

You wasted all your time posting infantile snarks and bile laced hysteric tirades. NO one care what you think or say now since you exposed yourself as a ignorant welded shut mind long ago.

That why you don’t behave like an infantile ass around here, people always remember and simply stop bothering to read your postings.

If you want to be effective, don’t waste your time being a jackass.

I fully READ the article at least. We have no way to determine if the OP read it and had thoughts about it.

Yeah, youthful indiscretion for Trump. He was only 64 then.

And Reagan was 55 when he signed an Open Carry ban in California.

I said nothing of “youthful indiscretion”.

But they sure have no problem digging up whatever the other candidates said in the past & contort it to mean what they say it means...

Biblically we are seeing that truly the very elite will be fooled......

I’m the same age as Trump and my views on issues has changed over the years too. They’ve even changed since 1998 when I joined FR.

By the time of the Republican National Convention, The Donald will OWN the Republican party, lock, stock, and rainbarrel. His personal ranch, to run as a fiefdom, and set the rules of visitation, custody, and support.

The status quo STINKS.

They don’t care because they are ignorant and don’t realize that they are lead around by their noses.
