So why don't I like Donald Trump?
The Briefing Room ^ | October 4, 2015 | andy58-in-nh/Andrew Kone

Posted on 10/11/2015 10:42:04 AM PDT by EveningStar

I'm a Tea Partier. I detest Obama and the Progressive hoard that has Washington, DC and large portions of America in a death grip. So why don't I like Donald Trump?

Honestly, sometimes I wonder what the hell is wrong with me these days. Why can't I get on the bandwagon along with so many others with whom I agree about most everything? ...

So what's the problem with Trump? In a nutshell: judgment, or rather a deficit of it, which in turn ought to make reasonable people otherwise inclined to agree with him to perhaps, think a bit harder about the consequences of their support for him in a precarious and dangerous world ...

Anybody who says they are a “Tea Partier” is a liar because there is no such thing.

That's not a nut shell.

The writer of this post conveniently leaves out any mention of
GOP liars.

I guess he must approve of the job Bonehead and McConnell have done.
Both of them have lied just as much as Hillary or ant RAT.

Just as some conservative women who didn’t like Palin were seen as jealous, some conservative men should be seen as disliking Trump out of envy.

Well, I’m old enough to remember how Barry Goldwater got smeared for being unfit as a leader in a “precarious and dangerous world”.

This sounds a bit like an updated version of that.

Very cogent and well thought-out argument. I’ll have to rethink my support of Mr. Trump. Thanks for opening my eyes!

That’s about it.

But graphics saying “Run Bitches” do not help.

You really don’t have to “like” The Donald, to appreciate what it is he is trying to do for a country which, by every measure, he appears to love with a great fervor.

Almost single-handedly, The Donald has seized this onrushing runaway locomotive by the headlight, and is about to pick it up, spin it 180 degrees and set back down on the track heading the opposite direction in which it has been proceeding.

The inertia and G-forces are going to be almost incalculably high, but if The Donald can get it done, I don’t care that he may have a somewhat abrasive personality.

I remember that as well. So we elected LBJ in a historic, record landslide and he promptly made the world much more dangerous and precarious (and I’m not just talking about the situation abroad).

I want a conservative president. Trump's a pretty good guy - funny on Howard Stern or the WWE, but basically a reality television character. I like him tossing eggs at the liberal sacred cows, but at heart, he's a big government populist who brags about his own role in the buying and selling of politicians.

With the Democratic Party about to nominate an incompetent undeniably corrupt drunk, it's the best opportunity in generations to get a real conservative into office. Instead, we're going to go with this Trump guy, simply because he tosses out great quips. If we do, it's a colossal blown opportunity.
