[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.
Stu? The guy who is always laughing nonstop at every unfunny joke Glenn Beck makes?
He’s not conservative at all…that’s why the leftys are FREAKING out about him. Cause he agrees with them so much lol.
Indeed!
Something is seriously wrong with him.....
Insanity fits the bill.
OR extremely jealous of Trump....
OR both
At then end of the day, all that matters is what Trump is pushing. The policies he is pushing are essentially Ronald Reagan’s platform.
Folks can go twitchy all they like trying to trash him, but it amazes me how much they’ll trash a man who is essentially channeling Reagan, when they proudly claim to have been a big supporter of Reagan.
Why?
Why do you tell us you supported him if you don’t like his policies today?
Like Trump or not, he is selling Reagan’s platform folks.
I know that reality is a bi__h, but that’s reality.
I wouldn’t call Trump conservative. I’d call him Republican, but not RINO.
But.
He’s the ONLY one who can beat Hillary.
And the first rule is ya gotta WIN.
Beck isn’t a conservative and neither is Trump. Property rights make that clear.
Wet brain. Seen it in other alcoholics before.
“I wouldn’t call Trump conservative.”
I wouldn’t either, I call him an AMERICAN!!!!
Trump is not a Conservative, despite his claims to the contrary.
He has said he would serve as a Conservative (with the publication of his position papers).
But ultimately he's a Populist and a Nationalist.
It's like comparing Capital Stock Adjustment Theory and Beer.
Glenn Beck’s sidekick Stu also claims there’s nothing to the Barky-O birth-certificate issue.
If Glenn beck doesn’t like Trump that’s a plus.
My faith is shattered!
LOL! I can't live Trump's life for him, nor can he live my life for me.
He's playing smashmouth with the Establishment. It's good enough for me.
“Why do you tell us you supported him if you don’t like his policies today? Like Trump or not, he is selling Reagan’s platform folks.”
I don’t think the problem is that these people don’t like Reagan’s policies, but rather that they don’t trust Trump to be telling the truth about supporting those policies.
I’m far from sure myself.
Glen Beck is hardly a conservative authority.
The kind of conservative he supports:
1. Pointless wars in the middle east.
2. Leaving our border wide open.
3. Trade Treaty’s that destroy the MC.
4. Always losing or giving in to the Democrats.
What exactly are they conserving?
Anyone who tells me that they would accept the same from any other candidate is a liar.
Nice to know he’ll keep those ethanol subsidies flowing though isn’t it?

Beck also loved Mitt.
cracks me up. sue me.
Had to Google it.....have never heard of wet brain.
But it makes sense
Bull $**t!!!!
