[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.â€
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.
I forgot to mark that this is an excerpt (albeit a LONG one.)
You’re all very gullible.
Beck must have fallen off the water wagon.
I can’t believe any normal person still listens to that fruitcake Beck or his loony sidekicks. Less sensible than the MSM.
I have no intent of ever voting for him.
Glenn Beck and his sidekicks are delusional on many subjects, including Trump.
I’m a Cruzier and will remain so.
That said, when anyone associated with Glen beck tells me something, I immediately think the opposite of their advice is the correct choice. And more often than not, that proves to be the case. Especially in their electoral lesser evil crap.
It is like having Democrats offer advice. If they said water was wet, I’d check and then wonder if Hydrogen and oxygen were getting a divorce.
Funny how Trump MAKES THEM ALL LEAVE (and then lets some back in a controlled manner), while the others either look the other way (Cruz) or actively legalize them (Bush/Rubio).
...and so Trump is the one who supports Amnesty?
Yea, right.
Glenn Beck, you are a mental disarranged idiot....
Go back to your ranch and live with the people that want you....we don’t care what you say or care about how you feel about anything....
We understand you don’t like Trump....we understand there is an envy there you can’t itch...to bad....
We want OUR AMERICA saved, and that is something your not capable, physically or mentality able to do....
Beck: A fusion of drunken blather and WTF?
I do not read anything Glen Beck writes, or listen to anything he says.
I agree this rundown was very telling and informative. For someone that has supposedly been so well critiqued I wasn’t even aware that Trump had run before in 1999.
this is the vetting process.
I do wonder when Trump became a Conservative. In one of the debates he did speak with love on single payer health care
Glenn isn’t a conservative.
You are one sick puppy for posting something from a nutcase.
Glen Beck has become like Politico.
Beck still speaks highly of Rubio, so his advice is worth what it cost
Beck is all I needed to see before deciding not to read it.
