I can only speak for myself when I say I don’t mind his attacks on Obammie the Commie. I wish all the Republican hopefuls would take the gloves off.
My concern is that he nothing more than another Ross Perot who doesn’t really stand a chance of winning, who may bump a better candidate who does stand a chance of winning out of the race, and thereby ensure Obammie the Commie’s re-election with far less than typical split.
I’ve never particularly liked Donald Trump. He has a moral history that makes Newt Gingrich look good. But he is speaking the truth when no one else in the republican party will do so. I admire his uncompromising stance on the character of Obama. I’m not saying that I will vote for him, but let’s give him credit for speaking the truth in an era when truth is an anathema.
There is a businessman out there who knows how government works and who knows how the private sector economy works. His name is Herman Cain. He is a conservative, and he's got my vote right now
I think there are a lot of folks who voted for Obama that have admitted that they made a huge mistake.
Irrelevant if Trump proves Obama wasn’t born in this country... you’ll never stop him then
And he’s going to prove it... that’s all I’m saying, doesn’t matter what YOU, I, or anybody else would like to think
Better get used to the idea now, he’s already got PLENTY on Obama imho
Maybe republicans don’t want to bring the troops home from everywhere.
Maybe they don’t want a 25% levy on imports from China.
Maybe we don’t want to take OPEC’s oil for ourselves.
So if that’s lilly livered..........
Very true. I believe that Trump believes he can pick off those people from Obama.
Any of the other candidates could do the same (Sarah is), but they don't have the power to stare down the MSM and the GOP establishment the way Trump does.
Worth repeating.
To all of you that think Trump will make a lousy President, you have to remember that he will most likely have a Tea Party Congress that will force him to stay on the correct path.
Trump is bringing up the most critical economic issues of all: our ridiculous, one-sided trade arrangements with nations that have been playing the US for a fool for many years now, and the outsourcing of jobs that continues to increase in number. And no one else has the guts to open those subjects which most politicians are afraid to even mention.
If Trump remains the only one who will discuss these subjects long prohibited by the GOP elites (conservative and RINO), then he will shock the timid bystanders with how well he does (if he does in fact enter the race).
Agree. I am doubtful that even if irrefutable evidence should be uncovered showing that Zero was not born in the U.S. or one of it's protectorates he would be impeached. Just wouldn't happen.
That's a very critical factor. A more conservative Congress and an even more active conservative voter base will reign in any president who tries to stray into the old RINO behavior we saw too much of during the W years.
Agreed, but as long as he's attacking Obama (and effectively), I won't complain.
So what is your problem with him taking the point on this mission when nobody else has the gonads to do so? I wouldn’t give a plug nickle for him but as long as he is out there on the point, I will do my damndest to make sure everyone in the patrol at least pays attention to what he sees ahead of us.
I sense that as long as it is not someone you agree with that everyone else should keep their mouths shut? That kind of logic is the main reason we are where we are.
Not to say that it is germain to this instance, but Norma McCorvey is now one of the most ardent pro-lifers out there, you know the “Roe” in Roe vs. Wade?
I still would not vote for him but I can consider the chance that even he has had enough, and he has the stature and name recognition to move the arguement forward.
So . . . the GOP needs to listen to, and voice the honorable concerns of WE THE PEOPLE (as Trump is), and it will take the wind out of Trump’s sails.
Presidental elections are just a show like “pro” werstling. The parties are just one big political power cartel. They put up two “different” opponents in a big smackdown every four years to fool people on both sides into believing they are represented.
Perot and Trump are the infamous assclown spectators who jump into the ring occasionally for increased dramatic effect.
I stand with the author 100% no doubts from this quarter! I just really wish I could wrap my head around why the people who I typically admire so greatly are strangely not only avoiding the issue, but ridiculing those of us that take this to be THE issue of our day. I’m taking about people like Ann Coulter, Mark Levin, etc. too whom now, I think are not the brightest bulbs in the box. Why? Are they really afraid of a race war or something? Do they know something we don’t? I’m so disappointed I can’t begin to say. These people are not what they seem to be after all. Surprise surprise that its really only the Lord anyone of us can trust
