If comb-over boy were to post his views on FR, the viking kitties would fry him before an hour has passed. He's a conservative like Michael Moore is a gymnast.

“When you owe the bank a millions dollars, they own you. When you owe the bank a billion dollars, you own them.” —Donald “Cowlick” Trump

[Paperdoll]

Is that William F. Buckley’s National Review, or some other National Review? He’s been gone, and to some extent he must be forgotten, if this is his former magazine.

So we all agree Obama would be a better president than Trump.

[Notary Sojac]

Obama would be a better president than Trump

Well, they both have a well documented history of supporting corporate welfare and cronyism rather than the free market.

[antiRepublicrat]

Trump says he has found the light on abortion, and now describes himself as ardently pro-life. But it wasn’t always so.

Bush 41 was not pro-life before he ran for VP. People do change their opinions.

[allmost]

Let him talk his $hit. Please.

What is most suspicious to me today is Trump’s continued demonetization of Bush, while claiming to share most of his political views (conservatism).

I was a fan of Bush until he caved at the very end of his 8 year term... but until then, he was pretty conservative in practice.

I guess Trump’s main opposition to Bush is the Iraq war thing... which should be pretty illustrative of what a Trump foreign policy would be like... WEAK!

Yeah... something about Trump stinks... but I’ll cheer him on as long as he shows the courage to take on Obama’s legitimacy.

A good third of Freepers are competing in the Social Security/Medicare version of “Dancing with the Stars”.... what’s your favorite step?

Who are you referring to?

Would you mind to tell us just a little about yourself first??

Also, have you found anybody on this planet earth who have gone after the NBC issue for the "usurper" in the Whit-Hut more than "your" comb-over boy???

[Notary Sojac]

Trump has the same freedom of speech as does every other liberal. But you have to admit that saying on FR what Trump has said would earn an instant zot.

[WinOne4TheGipper]

Yes, people do change their opinions, but not usually as often and as completely as Trump.

[mas cerveza por favor]

Go Daniel Go

The National Gatekeeper is firing on all cylinders to quell the "birther" uprising among conservatives. What will they come up with next?

[jiminycricket000]

"One of the young Trump’s more clever business tactics involved hiring workers and machines to push dirt around his frequently stalled or underfunded real-estate developments to present visiting potential investors with the illusion of industry. And he has developed a long-running reflex to offer unsolicited — and largely unverifiable — assessments of the strength and virility of his portfolio to anybody who will listen, perhaps in an effort to erase memories of the four (and counting) bankruptcies to which he was a party."

You call this "dirt"? Is this a joke? Putting on a show to encourage people into a sale is actually the epitomy of a good politician. And as for Trump's bankruptcies, I still don't get what you mean. Often times filing for bankruptcy is a smart, wise business move. Are you trying to somehow diminish the FACT that Trump is one of the most financially successful, brilliant businessmen and negotiators who ever lived? Or are you just trying to show that he never let failure get in the way of success? Methinks it's the former, but in fact, it's the latter that's true. Nobody's perfect, but what you have written here doesn't diminish Donald Trump's enormously successful life one iota. Would you rather the originator of ObamaCare, Mitt Romney, get the nomination? Or perhaps Hucklebee the Preacher? Maybe Ron Paul the radical 'independent'? Or Sarah Palin, the woman with a good and strong heart, a great set of convictions, but with an utterly unPresidential style, scant credentials to be US President and world leader, and who possesses a high pitched, whiney, girlish voice that is more painful to listen to than a fingernail being scratched on a chalkboard? We have a few good ones, like Chris Christi, but he has far too many liberal leanings, (study his positions). Newt Gingrich? Please!!!

Paul Ryan is wonderful, but he too lacks the lustre, experience and exuberence that will be needed to defeat Obama, (who will be raising ONE BILLION DOLLARS, has some of the best hit men in political history, and has an adoring media behind him). Rick Santorum is a possibility, and so is

[Notary Sojac]

(1) your reply re Soc Sec/Medicare is on the wrong thread.

(2) Trump "gone after the NBC issue" - he is pandering. Many on FR love to be pandered to.

[allmost]

Let him speak.

[UncleSam]

Well thats it then. Trumpy is just clever so let’s move on. Why do they bother spending the time, energy and ink to provide this in depth disclosure that is all public knowledge. Hell, I can find it all myself. Do they have an agenda or a point that I, a member of FreeRepublic, am missing.

What I am missing is the same and equivalent info about Mr.Soetero that is available about Mr.Trump. I like many things about Mr.Trump and very few about Mr.Soetero.

Mr.Trump is a liar, a manipulator and womanizer that pays his own way. I struggle to do the same.

I believe him when he says he loves this Country.

[Notary Sojac]

Every one of the names you mention has a more solid grounding in conservatism than does comb-over boy. And I do not exclude Huckabee and Romney, neither of whom I could vote for.

[danamco]

But you have to admit that saying on FR what Trump has said would earn an instant zot.

What has he said that would earn him to be zoted, which then seems quite OK with you???

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Scott Brown for President!!!!
