With the understanding that I will get hammered by the Trump supporters on this page, I have some questions for you about your candidate:
First, WHY do you support Trump? Is it only because he talks tough? Do you have HISTORY to prove he means what he says on this issue?
Second: Other than screaming about illegal immigration (he is right about it), talking about bombing oil fields and that Persians are smooth negotiators, WHAT other issues does he understand? On what other issues is he Conservative?
Third: Who do all of you expect Trump to choose for the SCOTUS?
Fourth: Can you prove Trump is different from his past as a Democrat...can you prove he is Conservative? how? (please don't feed us the BS that Reagan was once a Democrat...Trump isn't Reagan)
Fifth: How do you reconcile his flip-flopping on issues like Immigration, guns, abortion and OBAMACARE and Hillary?
Sixth: Can anyone explain WHY Trump supported Obama in 2012?
Seventh: Why, suddenly, in 2012, did his donations INCREASE to Republicans when he first decided to run as a GOP candidate for POTUS? Why was he a Democrat donor before then? (don't give me the 'Oh, well, he had to do business in NY crap, either...he gave to candidates outside of NY).
Finally, how can you all be certain that Trump isn't a trojan horse? How can recent talking points outweigh his recent history of comments, etc?
If Trump really is who you think he is...prove to us WHY you think this.
Now that’s funny right there, equating Carson and Trump.

As to his service record, you can investigate his history aboard the USS Forrestal.
But you are still discussing “the perfect conservative candidate.” I love utopian thinking. But right now we have President Jebillary staring us in the face. I expected Hillary to be my next president and she murders anyone who gets in her way and has contempt for the American people. Our country is 100% controlled by the one two headed party, the Statists, and run by their winged Media monkeys.
It is a non sequitur how Trump feels about a lot of issues. He is the political plumber who will flush the PC sewer. Like with any plumber, we have to see his butt crack once in a while.
How is that funny?
Carson, like Trump, isn’t a politician.
Carson, like, Trump is brilliant in his profession.
Carson, like Trump, has come onto the Conservative forefront later than most...
The only difference, Carson isn’t loud.
Yup!
“And while Trump is saying the right things (now, at least)he has has a history of saying and DOING things that prove he’s a liberal. So I ask you...aren’t we as conservatives supposed to be smart enough to judge a candidate by his record?”
Let’s see, who was it that just voted to give Obama Trade powers and who is now taking the Iran Nuclear deal to the Un circumventing US Congress and the American people altogether? that’s right, Cruz and company did! Sounds awful liberal socialist to me!
Next!
I refuse to answer? Who made you king?
Also, how am I causing trouble simply by asking questions about your candidate of choice? It is sad that you have nothing to counter with.
LOL, so you looked in your Chrystal Ball and determined that I'm a "Trumper" eh?
Just damn, I guess I'll have to get those three donations I made to Senator Cruz's campaign back and send the $ to Mr. Trump.
Over the years, I've watched Trolls like you drop in on FR (you're probably a retread too) and do your sad Troll tricks.
I don't have ZOT power, so I will do like I always have ... I will wait and watch. Your type can never hold it together in the long run.
The Troll Watch Brigade on FR will continually (as they already have) catch you and your weasel words.
They will post them back to you over and over, while they (and I) watch you squirm and dodge and weave, constantly coming ever closer to that big FR ZOT from the sky.
Enjoy your time on FR TNMOUTH.
LOL.
I am hardly a troll and if you truly “watched” you’d know that...oh, and yes, I suspect you really are a Cruz person.
LOL. You might be able to fool some, but for those of us who really do support Cruz, we have heard your tripe before.
LOL, nobody...
It is just interesting how many Trump supporters can’t answer simple questions about their guy.
It amuses me actually.
I was reading excerpts from “Time To Get Tough” a couple a days ago and he is saying the same things then (2011) as he is saying now. Donald is the real deal and has come to point of America has to be saved now!
Nope, that's a strawman and not at all true. There is no "perfect" candidate. But why would that basic truth lead us to vote for a Democrat?
"I love utopian thinking. "
I always got the feeling you would. Since that's a liberal concept, and Trump is a liberal, you're right at home, I guess.
'But right now we have President Jebillary staring us in the face. I expected Hillary to be my next president and she murders anyone who gets in her way and has contempt for the American people. Our country is 100% controlled by the one two headed party, the Statists, and run by their winged Media monkeys."
All true, and it should be even stronger motivation to get behind a solid conservative instead of a reality-show liberal.
"It is a non sequitur how Trump feels about a lot of issues."
It sure as hell isn't if you want to elect him to run the country. When did that happen? Oh, I forgot, Trump is just so awesome, he's The Donald, he's changed the paradigm, is the next Washington/Churchill/etc.! He's going to fix everything for us!
Do you truly not understand the childishness of this naked hero worship? It's as far from conservatism as you can get. When does the fainting begin?
" He is the political plumber who will flush the PC sewer. Like with any plumber, we have to see his butt crack once in a while."
As liberal as he is? And you're discounting his entire history?
Sister, he has his entire butt backed up to your face, and you're swooning like a girl on her first date.
Next!"
That has been explained I don't know how many times. You don't like it, so it's "next" and on to a liberal Democrat?
Pure simple-mindedness.
For Clarification, I just listened to his speech on You Tube, and I have to say, I was NOT offended, he handled it well, but make up your own mind.

Gee this thread didn’t turn into what you hoped did it? It has become a GO DONALD GO! thread...lol
You and a few others here, won’t be happy till Jeb ends up the nominee will you? Your so brilliant!
Yes, indeed.
Ted Cruz - 2016
Who are those "few others?"
Ted Cruz is my man. I want a solid Constitutional conservative.
You, on the other hand, are firmly caught up in the Trump cult of personality. If you're going to vote for that Democrat, you might as well vote for Jeb.
I was toying with it while waiting for Mrs. Mad. I agree, spent the last few hours on the outback with my dog.;-)
Those who have been here for a while have seen your kind come.....and more importantly get the zot.
You won't last long, Col Freeper is correct in his assessment.
By your own admission, you are a "Trumper" for the same reasons many of the others here posting are (see post #226 on this thread)
You're outed, and not even a good retread troll.
