What good is an ideology if you can’t get anything done. Trump will get things done per a conservative leaning ideology he espouses. This ideological purity crap is for the USSR not the USA.
“What good is an ideology if you can’t get anything done. Trump will get things done”
Obama’s been getting things done too.
Lack of character and fidelity to a conservative a world view is the reason were where we are right now. Republicans as a rule compromise when they shouldnt and basically are adrift. They lack what youre denigrating. So, if you want 4 more years of aimless adrift policy then OK but nothing gets fixed.
I don't believe in ideological purity tests when it comes to elections. I always prefer a conservative, but if I think a conservative is unelectable, I'll support a RINO over a Democrat. A lot of Freepers won't.
That being said, my problem with Trump isn't that he isn't an ideologically pure conservative. My problem is that I actually think he prefers big-government solutions in general. Not just a RINO who is wrong on some issues, but a guy who will generally be wrong on most issues.
A huge part of the problem we all seem to have in evaluating Trump is that we interpret his statements and positions differently. And since he's never held elective office, it makes it difficult to predict exactly what he's going to do. There is a lot of uncertainty regarding him. And some are essentially just trying to read between lines and say "I trust him".
For me, I'm willing to consider a guy like Trump without much of a track record. But if there are legitimate questions about a candidate without any political track record - and I think applies to Trump - then I believe that candidate is obliged to start being much more specific on his policy proposals.
Trump has refused to do that. He becomes deliberately vague when asked specifics, but I believe that given his lack of record and some questionable positions he has taken publicly in the past, that Republicans are owed more detailed, specific policy proposals so that we can know what the hell we're getting into if we elect him.
His failure to provide specifics during the GOP primary makes me incredibly nervous about where he really stands on a bunch of issues, particularly in light of some of his past statements. And I am extremely worried that he's doing what Obama did in 2008 -- avoiding specifics so he can be all things to as many people as possible, then do whatever the hell he wants when he gets in office.
Again, if people think that is an unfair evaluation of him, the power to correct that is something he possesses. Just start getting more specific on some of the specifics he's been ducking.
Trump will get things done per a conservative leaning ideology he espouses.
How is it you know this? because Trump has told you has smart he is?
To buy TRUMP INC you have to buy the sales pitch from TRUMP INC .There is little else to guide you.
Trump has a booze with his name on it. But claims he does not drink. WC Fields often repeated this accusation; Never trust a man who claims he never drinks.
I wholeheartedly agree.
