Maureen was a good lady. From his first marriage, I believe. Michael, the adopted son, didn’t turn out too bad, either.

Nothing that I said was a lie.

Just the way you said it makes it a lie. You know very well why he takes the small donors money and he has not concealed it nor the purpose.

Oh jeez, I was responding to a comment that I agreed with. There was no need to go to the wall and claim Sarah’s in bed with the devil. Honestly, I think it’s an idiotic statement.

And btw, it may shock you, but people DO lie. Politicians DO lie. It’s life.

I’m not asking congress, I’m asking posters on this site, who seem to be defending PP. Let’s get this straight, IMO any support or defense of PP marks you as a scum bag pro abort

I responded to this...

Look buddy, you butted in on my question to another poster who seems to be supporting PP. I have never in my 59 years supported abortion, so I'm unable to understand those who have no problem with PBA, Trump said he supported it, but changed his mind, I have met people who used to support it but accepted Jesus Christ and changed. What caused Trump's conversion? Trump believes in God, but hasn't sought forgiveness. I am very troubled by that, the conversion smacks of politics

I am not your buddy, I am a mom of three... but you carry on with your need to search people souls. And God will judge whether or not Trump has converted... I personally believe that repentance is a private affair and not for the tabloid papers to make light and ridicule..... ALL have sinned and bearing false witness ranks right up there with stealing, murder, and adultery, coveting.. But these are even lesser sins than to have other gods... before Him.

Politicians lie, as a matter of course. Lies, big lies, damnable lies, election lies.

As to whether or nor Sarah is in league with the devil depends on how far you want to take it. Is Trump the devil? LOL No....not hardly. Perhaps it would have been best to say that Sarah seemed to have compromised some principles in supporting Trump. I think she is wrong in her endorsement, but perhaps I don't know all the details to cause her to do so.

A figure of speech is not something to get bent out of shape over. I think Sarah would laugh that one off.

Trump broke the ice jam. It’s risky business, no doubt.


Good point. Without Trump, this campaign would be boring. He’s done more to force issues to the fore. In many ways, this is the best campaign ever.

Always nasty, and clueless to boot.

Cruz fought PP, Trump never did, to quote you, did you miss that tidbit...

PP is an Abortion Mill, everyone but you seems to know that. Hitler also delivered food to the poor, does that excuse Austwitz?

You say Ted is beholden to his supporters, but trump is a hundred times more beholden to the Banks than Cruz, Trumps real estate empire is totally dependent on bank loans. Ted borrowed money, then paid it back. Trump owes more money than you would ever earn in a thousand years.

You swallow a camel and strain at a gnat, and ridicule those who point out the obvious.

Why are you guys willing to vote for another populist like Obama who spent most of his live as a flaming liberal and slander a real Conservative even though you KNOW ITS A LIE!!!

No Christian I know assesses character based on words coming from the mouth.

Count Trump’s kids for pro-life evidence. Note his adult children are all in business with him.

You worry about your children and grandchildren but refuse to put out the fire burning them “because principles!”

Trump is your bitter medicine. Try a spoonful of sugar and you won’t choke on it.

I thought the idea was to win them over to conservatism 

Trump WAS won over.

Despite your article, you can't find one place in this campaign where trump said he supports planned parenthood. It doesn't exist.

I challenge you to find it.

And without it the premise of your article goes down in flames.

because Cruz is one of the biggest fakes out there.

Easy to say, but damn hard to prove, unlike Trump. Trump is against abortion but for Planned Parenthood, Is a conservative now, but thinks Hillery would make a good president, donated a lot of money to the Clintons to put them in power. Is a wonderful business man but gone bankrupt multiple times, Would make a fine president, if he could get his mouth out of the gutter, a great diplomat, if he could stop insulting everyone and will remove the shame from America with his fine example of bragging about fornicating, adultery and his First Lady, or third that has done nude lesbian photo shoots. You are ludicrous, beyond reason and quite possibly insane.

What other aspect of “Planned Parenthood” cannot be done by a local clinic without hundreds of millions of tax dollars?

Planned Parenthood has killed more Americans than all the wars in our history combined. Trump wants to hire them for pap smears? They make Hitler look like a good guy.

What could go wrong?

Plenty of Muslims supporting Trump, whats your point?

A thousand times more liberals support Trump too, but that is natural, because Trump is one.

Wait.

What?

I just heard Trump say PP does wonderful things for women's health, but not so much the abortion part.

Except for abortion, it sure sounds like Trump thinks PP does wonderful things.

He even said "wonderful".

Whatever you're smoking, I sure hope your employer doesn't test for it.

FR used to be populated with principled people. Now, less so.

Bullspit. FR hasn't changed one iota, except now we're putting our principles to action.

I'm sorry you can't comprehend the finer points around political maneuvering and why Trump is absolutely necessary. I feel pity for people who post absolute garbage about their "principles," then do nothing when socialists take over all three branches of government.

What's happening now is the New York way of doing things -- if you can't make it here, then you can't make it anywhere.

Oh, get real. Cruz has done nothing for the state of Texas since elected. He only used that as a stepping stone for his real ambition - to rule the world and be wealthy.

Everything you say is back asswards. Like you think Trump ever did anything for anybody but himself, and has not spent his entire life trying to rule the world and be wealthy.

Don't demand others get real, when your are totally unrealistic.

How is he a puppet, because he borrowed money and paid it back?

I bet Trump has outstanding loans right now a hundred times larger than the one Cruz paid back.

That makes Trump a hundred times the puppet by your book.

Cut back on the Cool-Aid, while you still have enough brain cells to type.
