I Was Wrong About Trump

[stanne]

“Donald Trump was a registered Democrat from August 2001 through September 2009.”

This is not extreme leftist by any standard, subjective or objective.

Oh now that last part is just plain funny

[Nifster]

That and a buck will get you coffee

"...but Officer’s need good NCO’s to execute the mission..."

True statement, but...

...was the use of apostrophes a part of the OCS board?

[Nifster]

You were. And stallwort at it

Donald Trump was a registered Democrat from August 2001 through September 2009.

I wonder what he knew and when he knew it.

[Nifster]

Well said

You are not able to establish someone else's standard, therefore, it's subjective.

NOT necessary.

As a private citizen in what late night talk show? Hardly a policy position

I was lucky.

I had no preconception.

I listened to what the man said and judged the honesty of words backed by his accomplishment with his family by his side.

He loved his family so much, I sensed no ability on his part to shame his family by lying through his teeth about anything.

There was no pattern of it.

Trump caught my attention when he announced at Trump Tower. Fearless. Unbowed by PC pressure.

Cruz was my guy originally, but soon fell after Trump appeared. Then the Iowa voter shaming. Dunce.

My vote for President Trump was a vote against the corrupt Clintoons. I never in my wildest dreams thought I was voting for the President Trump I’m seeing today. He has won me over to his side. I will crawl over broken glass to vote for him again in 2020. JMO.

I was wrong about Trump. I was solidly against him when he was running.

I, on the other hand, was one of President Trump's first supporters on Free Republic.

Welcome to the Trump Train. Please have your ticket ready for the Conductor.

Reagan made a deal to get increased border protection. It was supposed to be limited and one time. Dems as usual didn’t follow throug

Reagan was not an extreme anything. He was a democrat in the forties. When he was governor of California he was a solid republican. You must be either young or uninformed.

Trump has consistently said the same things he says today for over thirty years. Do your home work

[Nifster]

It’s what was deserved

[ronniesgal]

i remember that!! You’re correct, PDJT was the only guy to stop and help Mr. Carson
and Jeb! again, what an a hole.

#Nevertrumpers will never be satisfied and they will always be saddened that Clinton lost not that Trump won.

Well that's the thing some people who have forgotten (or never learned because it was before their time) which is important.

Trump was (and is) a Democrat at heart.

But he is not a communist, and communists is what the Democrat Party are now. Truman was from the traditional wing of The Democrat Party, bringing in voters who wouldn't support Roosevelt.

During the cold war we didn't fight “The Russians.” We fought global socialism, a term which was used interchangeably with communism.
Some of the global socialists were Soviet, Some were Chinese, Some were Cuban, Some were Korean, Some were Brazilian, or perhaps east German some were Vietnamese or Nicaraguan, or little groups in the Philippines.

Wherever they were they used the same template, followed the same ideology, and eventually massacred civilians. Globalism and Socialism in concert always goes there. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn explained why.

The Democrats have purged the party of its rational elements. How thoroughly they have done so became clear at Trump's Chicago rally.

I am neither young, or uninformed, and would be happy to meet and discuss your lack of historical knowledge at any time.

Trump said he's very pro-choice in 1999. This is different from his position today.

In the same year he said "“I’m very liberal when it comes to health care. I believe in universal healthcare.” Last year, he reiterated his commitment, stating, “I’m going to take care of everybody.” So who pays? “The government’s going to pay for it,”

In 2000, he wrote “Unions still have a place in American society,” “In fact … unions are about the only political force reminding us to remember the American working family.”

Like I said, his current actions don't match his past statements, which is a good thing. Do your own research in the future.
