“Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on American companies that put their factories in other countries.”

How on earth can that be a negative?

“Recent estimates put Trump’s tax reform plan as adding 10 TRILLION to the National Debt.”

Trump’s plan is a retread of the very successful Reagan tax cut. The detractors of Reagan’s plan said the EXACT same thing. Reagan’s tax cut doubled government revenue.

“His position on illegal immigration involves somehow sending over 12 million illegals “home” only to let most of them return.”

Most??? He said those who benefit the United States, and he describes the ones he is talking about. It doesn’t come close to “most”.

“...but he’s expressed support of a single payer system.”

No. he did not. You need to check that.

Abortion - he says he changed his views based on the same reason a friend of mine says he changed.

Assault weapons - he says is for the 2nd amendment, packs heat himself.

There are tens of millions of illegals in the United States. It they obtain amnesty, you want have to worry about conservatism. It will be gone, forever. Trump is the ONLY one who says he will deport. Anything else is amnesty.

Sorry, odawg, but, from what I’ve seen, Donald Trump is no Ronald Reagan. Reagan pushed through a 23% ACROSS-THE-BOARD cut of individual income tax rates. Trump would give NON-CRIMINAL illegal aliens legal status and I can’t believe that anyone would seriously support the idea of SOMEHOW sending MILLIONS of illegals “home” only to bring them back ASAP, which is what Trump has said he would do. It’s not practical, it would be VERY costly and, in the final analysis, he agrees with most of the other GOP candidates that these folks would be allowed a pathway to legal status.

When he ran for the Reform Party in 2000, Trump absolutely supported universal health care, and has voiced support for a single-payer system a number of times.
• “If you can’t take care of your sick in the country, forget it, it’s all over. ... I believe in universal healthcare,” Trump on Larry King in October 1999.

• “I would put forth a comprehensive health care program and fund it with an increase in corporate taxes, “ Trump told The Advocate in 2000.

• “The Canadian plan also helps Canadians live longer and healthier than America. … We need, as a nation, to reexamine the single-payer plan, as many individual states are doing,” —from Trump’s 2000 book The America We Deserve.

To date, Trump has said very little about what he would replace Obamacare with, but he most certainly has supported a single payer system in the past. As for Trump’s “change of views” on guns and abortion, it wasn’t until he decided to run as a Republican that he did so.
