Pro-Choice! Pro-Amnesty! Pro-Oprah! All the reasons you should NOT vote for Donald Trump
Glenn Beck.com ^ | July 9, 2015 | Glenn Beck Programl

[T]here is NOTHING remotely conservative about Donald Trump and his candidacy.

You have to give them a path, a path to citizenship. Where have I heard that one before? I know, Jeb Bush and Lindsey Graham and of course every Democrat as well. He’s zero for one there.

How about taxes? When Trump ran for president in 1999, he proposed a gigantic wealth tax on the American people, a 14.25% levy that he calculated would raise $5.7 trillion and wipe out the debt forever in one fell swoop—a wealth tax, going into your bank account and pulling out money from bank accounts. Obama is into his second term, and he hasn’t even suggested that.

Since the 80s, he struggled so much with his identity, he has switched parties five times. Remember, a few months ago when people wanted George Stephanopoulos fired because he gave to the Clinton Foundation, remember that? Well, Donald Trump has given even more to the Clinton Foundation than Stephanopoulos did. He’s given over $100,000 to the Clintons.

Since 1990, he’s given at least $541,650 to Democrats, far more than he gave to Republicans. The guy gave money to Rahm Emanuel and Harry Reid, Harry freaking Reid.

Trump said, “I’m totally pro-choice. I hate it and I hate saying it. And I’m almost ashamed to say that I’m pro-choice but I am pro-choice because I think we have no choice.” What? And “I believe it is a personal decision that should be left to the women and their doctors.”

Donald Trump: I think Bush is probably the worst president in the history of the United States.

He indicated his ideal vice president would be diehard Obama supporter Oprah Winfrey, and he was a registered Democrat until 2009

How about eminent domain? Years ago, Trump was looking to add a few more parking spots to one of his casinos in Atlantic City. To do so, he needed to acquire the property of Vera Coking, a senior citizen who had lived there for over three decades. So, did he make her an offer she couldn’t refuse? No, he decided to use eminent domain. Yes, this conservative argued that the government needed to take a wrecking ball to this sweet old woman’s home, her private property, because it was an eyesore.

That’s not all on eminent domain, of course, because the big one is when the government destroyed people’s homes in Connecticut so an office building could be built in the Kelo decision which might be the worst Supreme Court ruling of my lifetime. Trump said he backed the government 100%. Eminent domain is more than something he supports. It’s his business plan. In fact, a nice chunk of Trump’s wealth has come from using the force of government to take property from private individuals to line his pockets. Beyond the sheer lack of basic humanity, it definitely takes a liberal progressive to do something like that.

what you see is what you get!

Not much doubt about that, but the tricky part is when you see it. Trump has been on almost every corner of the political map at one time or another, the $64 question is which corner of the map will he be on after he gets to the Oval Office. I don't want to find that out after he's there when there are others still in the running who I can say with a reasonable degree of confidence would or would not govern conservatively if elected.

If elected Trump may govern conservatively as well. But as I said before, in the past he's been all over the political map from left to right and back to left and now to the right again. And that kind of fluctuation between right and left doesn't give me a lot of confidence that he'll take the right side after he's safely in office. Most Freepers seem perfectly willing to take a chance on which side he'll settle down on. But as I have said on FR several times today, as for me and my house I want to learn a lot more about what he's selling this time before I buy it.

TBP and everyone else against Mr. Trump: Please vote as you please, but save the opinions of whack jobs like Beck as your back-up's. They're worse than worthless. They're damaging to your anti-Trump cause.




Dearest Jane Long!

Well said, friend. I think there is room to point out Trump’s faults. No one’s perfect. But I really think that the hard cord TDS’ers who seize on one thing they disagree with regarding Trump, or complain he’s not conservative enough, and ignore the big picture, really aren’t interested in solving the problems we face. They would rather watch the country go down in flames and say, “See, I told you so”.

According to AA, yes, Beck is still an alcoholic. You are a recovering alcoholic, but you never get to be a “recovered” one.

he went off the deep end with his “Tune-in Monday Bombshell” on the Boston bomber guy. LOTS of lead up, nothing ever materialized.

Actually, he had a very solid story about a Saudi named Abdulrahman Ali Al-Harbi who attended the same mosques as the Tsarnaev brothers and was at the Boston Marathon bombing site. He was declared a terrorist, only to have the designation removed within days, a process that takes months, if not years -- simply for political reasons -- and then quietly allowed to leave the country. It looks like he was their paymaster.

Beck loved him some Romney, last election, too.

in the general election. Against 0bama. So did most people here.

Not during the nomination process.

I notice that the Trumpkins will NOT address the actual substance of the comments made in the article about their candidate, but instead act like liberals and try to destroy the source. That way they don’t have to address the actual issue.

“I take it that you don’t believe any of what Beck says?”

Not since he started drinking his own bathwater. :-)

Thanks! He’s been over with for years, and yet, not long ago there was a vanity about ‘gee whiz, what’s wrong with you alleged conservatives’ attitude toward Glenn Beck’, and I got busy. :’)

My point is, people change. Maybe ‘technically’, Beck is still an alcoholic, but he no longer drinks. I’m sure that Beck would argue for forgiveness and redemption when it comes to the judging of recovering alcoholics and the destructive behavior from their past. It’s inconsistent for him to not offer that in this instance.

1. Trump’s policies online are more conservative than any one else’s. That’s good enough for me because he is saying the right things, has been for decades, and will stop the invasion. Without that, all other issues are moot. The country will be over.

2. Glenn has gone off the deep end. Long before now. But now he has a personal vendetta against Trump, it’s obvious. Maybe Trump’s strong stand to stop the invasion interferes with Beck taking Teddy Bears to the border. Glenn has backed amnesty, before he didn’t, before being a bleeding heart crybaby encouraging the invasion. He can’t decide it seems.

“Like Trump or not, he is selling Reagan’s platform folks.”

Spot on!

Few can disagree with one of Trump’s policy papers. So just like with Carson, they have to dig up something from ling ago.

I’ve even had Trump haters here tell me his immigration plan is bad because he won’t be able to implement it. So I should instead go with a candidate that openly backs amnesty or won’t say? Yeah, that makes a lit more sense, sure, LOL!

Eminent domain isn’t ruining the country, turning border states into cesspools, taking billions of tax dollars every year, stealing American jobs, dumbing-down our education system even more, committing crimes.

Your one issue is SO irrelevant in the big picture we are facing, and that is all you can cone up with?
