Help me understand: Why do YOU support Donald Trump?
Self

Posted on 02/27/2016 10:57:00 AM PST by sampai

As far as I can tell, Donald Trump is an unprincipled vulgarian. He would make a big show of deporting illegal aliens, only to "let the good ones back in." He supports single-payer healthcare. Before he flipped on the issue, he wanted to admit tens of thousands of Syrian "refugees." He has very un-American strongman tendencies.

Yet he's leading in the Republican primaries. So please help me understand: How would President Trump be better than, say, President Cruz?

You are so right! Also Trump is not a politician . Being a politician is so different than making it out there in a business world. It makes me mad when pundits compare the past with these guys. The establishment seems to really want to have an exclusive club of politicians running the country.

Why would we care about Planned Parenthood?

They sell baby parts. I cannot see how anyone can see anything good about an enterprise that sells dead baby parts for profit. This is the definition of evil.

He will return us to our Christian-Judaeo foundations.

Bear in mind, that one does not need to be a devout Christian to believe in the superiority of Judeo-Christian societies. Even many atheists would acknowledge this.

Cruz has sponsored one bill into law during his time in the senate. Trump gets things done.

Oh wow you’re dense.

Duh. That’s the problem. The whole abortion industry is the problem.

Better idea: eliminate H1B entirely...

That is effectively the plan. You agree. I misunderstood. Sorry. I agree with you just don't beat around the bush, just end ti. I think Trump has to be a bit more nuanced is what is going on.

I answered the question in the post.

As for Trump, he’s all talk. Remember all that bravado about suing Cruz a couple weeks ago? Once Cruz said he welcomed that opportunity to serve as his own counsel and personally conduct the deposition, Trump never said another word.

Barrels of bombast and no beef.

I am dense because I think an enterprise that harvests baby parts for profit is evil? Seriously? On what basis does that make me dense?

Trump just hasn’t earned my vote. Again, that I won’t vote for him is not my fault. It is the fault of Trump and his acolytes.

Beg your pardon, I don't think I recognize you as I was responding to the other Tumpeter who said Cruz did not beat Trump.

BUT HE DID........, sorry you don't like that, but it is what it is, kind of sticks in your craw a bit, yes?.
