Is Trump 'flip-flopping' or evolving? - February 17, 2011

Trump has said in interviews with CNN that he identifies more with Democrats than Republicans; that the party handles the economy better than Republicans; that President George W. Bush was "probably the worst president in the history of the United States"; and suggested that Bush should have been impeached for what Trump called "lies" over a "horrendous mistake": the Iraq war.

In 1999, while flirting with running for president under Ross Perot's Reform Party, Trump told the New York Daily News that he supported abortion rights and universal health care.

Now he says he's very Conservative. In 2004 he said "Well, you'd be shocked if I said that in many cases I probably identify more as a Democrat," Trump said. "And it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans.

That's a big fat NO MORE RINOS.

I do not want to see Donald Trump as the GOP nominee. Like I posted earlier, compared to Romney, Huckabee, etc. he looks better by comparison, and that doesn't say much.
