“He’s not going to be ‘squeaky clean’ because he’s not a career politician. He’s a businessman first.”
Career politicians are even less clean than career business men. To paraphrase Reagan, politics is the second oldest profession and it bears a striking resemblance to the first,
What a red herring!
It is NOT about sex. It IS about breaking a vow made before God.....TWICE.
I can hear you now, “Why am I in trouble? Everybody is doing it!”
Do you want to try again?
Oh, so now you are a "Trumper"?
You are the fool. It’s the issue and you know it. It is the winning issue. This is not in your GOPe establishment agenda. We were suppose to go along with who you offered up. No more. It’s the issue and you know you have now lost.
Check out #226 on this thread....he’s a “Trumper” now.
I gave you the link in the original post.
I asked a fair question
You did not answer my question, but instead gave a bunch of your wishful thinking.
Now you want me to give you the link again?
Typical can’t answer the question so deflect.
And Trump being Trump will ultimately embarrass anyone who is convinced he’s the tried and true divine conservative savior we’ve been waiting for......
“Trump tells people what they have been dying to hear.”
Someone threw that mantra out there, and so people have been repeating it as if it is unusually profound. Why is it that no other candidate is saying what he says? According to Jeb! and a whole bunch of others, what Trump is saying is anathema to most Americans. All this is contradictory, or spin. What Trump is saying now, most of it I have heard him say for many, many years. And, pertaining to immigration, Trumps pumps up everybody, gets in office, and does a complete 180? And he wants a successful presidency?
That’s not my job......nor do I have any respect for someone making their prez choices based on their internet supporters. None whatsoever.
As for "talking tough," if ANY of the other candidates were responding to the left, rather than running to PC-ness every time an issue is raised, we wouldn't even be having this discussion. That alone makes him stand out. Sometimes talking is the most important thing you can do.
Imagine if a few more courageous Germans had spoken up prior to 1932?
which is fine, and I can’t wait until you figure out for yourself that Trump has a more liberal history than even RINO Lindsey Graham or Karl Rove or John McCain....by far.
Oops......
again, false choice.
Let me put it another way. If he repeatedly breaks a vow made to God, what is to keep him from doing the exact opposite of what he is saying right now to us?
So are you an athiest or just obtuse?
yeah, that is a goodie, ain’t it?

Most Trump supporters would vote for Cruz as second choice in a heartbeat. People like you are changing this.
HAH....that sentiment is not universal on here however....:)
Perot had $3 billion. Today $3 billion won’t get you on the list of the top 1,100 billionaires.
However, I submit to you that Trump's flip flopping (in his words, again) is something that makes him the strongest of the candidates to the "low information crowd," because only he can genuinely say, "Well, I thought Hillary would be a good SecState but she was a disaster." "I thought Obama would be good, but he's been horrible."
Note: 1) he uses words like "a disaster" and "horrible," which (Maybe Cruz excpeted) NONE of the other candidates will use, and 2) he comes off to the low-info types as, well, them. They all supported Obama and many liked Hillary, but they don't like them now and need an excuse. Here is a guy like them, so they can shift away without the guilt.
Trump is running a very different, 21st century celebrity campaign, which unfortunately none of the others yet have gotten. Cruz has done a few things---but obviously isn't making headlines like Trump.
So far Trump has made fools out of everyone who predicted he wouldn't file to run, wouldn't file his financials, etc. And despite losing probably a few million in business and endorsements, has stuck to his guns. That counts for a lot in my book.
