He is not on our side

What side are you on?

The guy said he's pro-life. He's opposed to "gay" marriage. He thinks Obama is a fraud. He won't engage in PC-speak about Muslims. He obviously understands money and finance. I think it's over if he wants the nomination and continues to enunciate these positions.

Donald Trump on Abortion

Pro-choice, but ban partial birth abortion

I support a woman’s right to choose, but I am uncomfortable with the procedures. When Tim Russert asked me on Meet the Press if I would ban partial-birth abortion, my pro-choice instincts led me to say no. After the show, I consulted two doctors I respect and, upon learning more about this procedure, I have concluded that I would support a ban.

Favors abortion rights bur respects opposition

Trump clarified his views on abortion, saying he favors abortion rights, but respects those who oppose his position. “I believe it is a personal decision that should be left to the women and their doctors,” he said. Source: Pat Eaton-Robb, Associated Press Dec 2, 1999

Donald Trump on Gun Control

Dems and Reps are both wrong on guns

It’s often argued that the American murder rate is high because guns are more available here than in other countries. Democrats want to confiscate all guns, which is a dumb idea because only the law-abiding citizens would turn in their guns and the bad guys would be the only ones left armed. The Republicans walk the NRA line and refuse even limited restrictions. Source: The America We Deserve, by Donald Trump, p.102 Jul 2, 2000

For assault weapon ban, waiting period, & background check

I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record. Source: The America We Deserve, by Donald Trump, p.102 Jul 2, 2000

Donald Trump on Health Care

We must have universal health care

I’m a conservative on most issues but a liberal on health. It is an unacceptable but accurate fact that the number of uninsured Americans has risen to 42 million. Working out detailed plans will take time. But the goal should be clear: Our people are our greatest asset. We must take care of our own. We must have universal healthcare.

Our objective [should be] to make reforms for the moment and, longer term, to find an equivalent of the single-payer plan that is affordable, well-administered, and provides freedom of choice. Possible? The good news is, yes. There is already a system in place-the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program-that can act as a guide for all healthcare reform. It operates through a centralized agency that offers considerable range of choice. While this is a government program, it is also very much market-based. It allows 620 private insurance companies to compete for this market. Once a year participants can choose from plans which vary in benefits and costs.

Trump admitted tonigh that he was pro choice until he wasn’t and was pro gay marriage until he wasn’t. I don’t trust him one bit.
How can you trust someone like that?

The guy said he's pro-life. He's opposed to "gay" marriage. He thinks Obama is a fraud. He won't engage in PC-speak about Muslims. He obviously understands money and finance. I think it's over if he wants the nomination and continues to enunciate these positions.

Trump also said put troops on the Mexican border
Trump is 100x better than Obama and can whip Obama which is more than I can say about the other Republican candidates
Trump is far from perfect but has my vote. Freepers can find much not to like about Trump....but he can beat Obama
