From a reply in a thread on the same topic:

Trump, to the contrary, has been a Democrat, has contributed to Democrats, has been all over all issues in recent decades and has very little credibility for consistency. Recently, he has been visited by Mad Dog Mattis and changed by 180° his opinion on waterboarding. He changed his opinion on the minimum wage. It seems that he is changing his opinion on immigration and the extent to which he will remove all illegal aliens. At the request of the very same daughter who arranged the meeting with Al Gore, he proposed a brand-new entitlement to a country $20 trillion in debt. One gets the feeling that Donald Trump is not nearly so Machiavellian as he is malleable for the last person who has his ear.

Even if Trump is as Machiavellian as his fans on this thread insist he is, where is the press release telling us the purpose of the meeting and restating his firm conviction that climate change is a "hoax?"

This is not a minor matter, climate change is the tool, the weapon with which the left proposes to do away with capitalism. If we hand this weapon back to the left and even aim it at our vital center, all of the good intentions of Donald Trump on many other issues will be as nothing. We are repeatedly advised in this forum to refrain from criticizing Donald Trump and give the man a chance. This is advice which is not heeded when we heard of the proposed nomination of Mitt Romney but we are supposed to assume a passive crouch even now when our very capitalist heritage is at stake. The system does not work that way, Donald Trump, for all his unorthodox campaigning, is not the exception to this rule.

This: “It seems that he is changing his opinion on immigration and the extent to which he will remove all illegal aliens.”

And this:”One gets the feeling that Donald Trump is not nearly so Machiavellian as he is malleable for the last person who has his ear.”

Plus this:”Even if Trump is as Machiavellian as his fans on this thread insist he is, where is the press release telling us the purpose of the meeting and restating his firm conviction that climate change is a “hoax?”

Read like they were C&P right from WaPo or the Slimes or CNN.

Progressives & never-trumpers (including the never-trumpets who claimed not to be but always wrote like one) always take Trump literally. It’s one of the many reasons Trump won.

...where is the press release telling us the purpose of the meeting and restating his firm conviction that climate change is a "hoax?"

Or at least a tweet.

Ironic that “Democrat” Donald Trump has done more to advance the conservative agenda than Ted Cruz and the entire careerist “true conservative” chattering classes have in the last 30 years. You can smear Trump all you want but facts are facts. Trump delivered. Cruz and the rest did not. Half of something from Trump will always be a better deal than all of nothing from Cruz and the rest of the GOP plantation porch conservatives.

Since even Ted Cruz has given up on that spew, have you moved on to Egg McMuffin and Glenn Beck as your last great hope for the future?
