If Donald Trump wins the presidency and succeeds in doing what he says he will do he will be assured a position in history as one of our very greatest presidents.
“Yes he will.”
So you want a dictator basically?? That is NOT a conservative position. You might think about going back to DU or China if you want a dictator in office.
“Trump has proven that he talks...”
All that Trump has proven is that he talks...a lot. Otherwise, Trump has NOT proven anything other than he can miraculously change all of his positions within the last 2 years, depending on his audience.
Yes we do.
Can you point me toward some of his weekly slips of the tongue?
Thank you!
Hello, EveningStar!
What are the most dangerous principles which you see being discarded?
Why do you think that conservatives, who, for the most part tend to think for themselves, are being drawn into a cult?
Thanks!

Who do you think Trump’s VP pick should be? Why?
Thank you!
JMO - yes he can. Provided of course that Obama and our fools in Washington don’t completely crash our economy and/or start a war before he takes office.
He can be a charming man, I believe he will be able to charm or cajole much of Congress to support his policies. I am also betting he knows where a lot of bodies are buried and can bring pressure to bear.
I have no doubt he will be able to get along with foreign leaders, he will not be a doormat at all but they will all learn very quickly he makes a good friend and a dangerous enemy.
I think he has a large group of friends and acquaintances that also see the very bad shape the country is in and will be more than willing to help in any way that they can.
He is not the least bit shy about calling the best experts for whatever issue it is that needs to be addressed. Or about listening to and heeding their advice.
He really will need the support of the country to accomplish this. Washington needs to know the citizens of this country will be behind him and let him fix things in order of importance.
I like Cruz or Sessions of Alabama.
I am so sorry for you. You are so full of hatred for Trump you aren’t willing to even use logic. You are much closer to getting a dictator by electing Cruz who has shown to all very clearly, it’s his way or the highway.
He is the one who wants constitutional amendments to force his policies, who wants to turn the middle east into a glass parking lot, who has no intention of trying to get along with the other superpowers in this world and who believes that only Christians who believe as he does have any rights in this country. Please open your eyes.
“You are much closer to getting a dictator by electing Cruz...”
Why?? Because you say so and you’re a Cruz hater? Trumpets are the ones advocating Trump rule by the pen just like Obama, which is a dictatorship.
Cruz said we need Constitutional Amendments to restore the Constitution and return State rights. He has NEVER advocated amendments just for his agenda. Besides the Amendments would be voted on by the people unlike Trump’s EO’s.
Either you can’t read or you’re intentionally distorting Cruz’s words. You’re getting pathetic now.
What do you expect from the great showman, a treatise on restoring Constitutional limits of government? That's a snore fest. Slogans and one liners get sheeple pumped up!
We already have that.
Amendment 10 - Powers of the States and People. Ratified 12/15/1791.
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to
the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
“Amendment 10 - Powers of the States and People”
Yes, but the amendment has been abused and ignored. Cruz wants to clarify the federal powers so that most powers remain with the State. How hard is that to understand??
You’ve pointed out several things I hadn’t thought of.
I appreciate your taking the time to respond so thoroughly!
That's just slander. He believes Christians have the same rights, which the left does not believe. I am sorry you feel such hatred toward Christians. That is an odd position for a Republican to take.
As for Constitutional Amendments, you do not get them through executive order, which is what Trump and his supporters favor. Read the 10th Amendment to the Constitution. It is there to protect the rights of the states and their citizens from a tyrannical federal government.
“I want an emperor...weâre out of time to play nice.”
Then people like that need to move to NK or China and leave the rest of us alone because that is liberal progressive ideals and NOT conservative ideals!
You’re welcome.
Pax, one of the things that bowled me over was when Alex Jones interviewed Trump and that interview was posted here. Alex Jones is a Truther. Items by Truthers are banned from FR. Yet, this interview was allowed to stay because the interviewee was Trump.
Why do you think that conservatives, who, for the most part tend to think for themselves, are being drawn into a cult?
Look at the live threads of his speeches. That's cultism.
Thanks...it’s time to stop playing footsie with people that out to JAIL US and worse.
