Can We Trust Trump? (Vanity)
August 27, 2015 | Myself

Posted on 08/27/2015 7:39:54 PM PDT by Crucial

I just have to wonder if Trump can be trusted on any number of fronts. Most importantly can he be trusted to pick one or two Supreme Court justices. Of course, Hillary can't be trusted whatsoever. Trump would be preferable to any Democrat. And I think Walker and Cruz and Carson are men with good intentions but that may be a moot point. I'm just worried that Trump might just go his own way and what anyone else thinks becomes inconsequential due to his dominant personality. The condition of this country is not good and I have no idea what kind of president Trump will be.

Trump’s enlisting Senator Jeff Sessions to help craft his immigration policy raises his trust level dramatically. I don’t think he would’ve done this if he weren’t ideologically right of center and Anti-GOPe.

I don’t have a good choice. I can’t just believe completely in a chosen candidate like a starry-eyed Democrat drone.

I think you have to ask yourself what is the ultimate concern of trusting or not trusting Trump? You alluded to it. the Supreme Court. If the political calculus is that presidential elections are nothing more than a mid-step calculation for who sits on the Supreme Court then I think it's fair to say that the United States as a nation is done. The same rationale is often applied to the Senate.

I've seen this calculation applied all the way down to the electoral precinct level. Control the precinct, control the state, control the electoral votes, control the White House, control the Supreme Court.

With that system in place, it doesn't even matter whether we trust Trump or not. The underlying principle is that we consider ourselves ruled by judicial oligarchy which had delegitimized itself.

Can you trust Rubio, Bush, or Kasich? Can you trust the present Republican controlled houses? I Plan on putting what’s left of my trust in Trump.

“There sure have been a lot of Trump vanities lately...”

The trolls suffering from severe BTDS* are running out of bs Anti Trump articles to post. So they are going to vanities.

*BTDS check my tagline.

Of course not! You can’t trust any government official.

I don’t trust any of them, but at least he’ll make for an entertaining collapse of the American Empire.

I think I am just about to that point as well.

I don’t really trust any public figure because I don’t really know them and I know very little of Trump’s political philosophy. Could you explain it in detail because I would like to hear it. And since I’m not running for president, I’d say the question of whether you can trust the potential president of the United States is more important than whether you can trust me.

Can We Trust Trump? (Vanity)

Stupid question.
Trump has done nothing to the Republic or the citizens of our country.

Can we continue to tolerate the crime spree of the one party rule of elected criminals?

Q.E.D.

Trump did challenge Obama on his BC so that is a plus. I suppose we could do worse.

We can trust Cruz and Carson more, but, sadly, the field of candidates natrows to only Trump after that.

When I cross off all the potential nominees that I’m pretty sure I cannot trust all I have left is Trump, Cruz and Carson.

I’ll take my chance with any of the three.

My preference among those three is..

1-Cruz
2-Trump
3-Carson

The fellow I’d most like to have as a neighbor and spend leisure time with is Carson :-)

Carson is just soooo pleasant! and anyone who has cut into the brain of a child and saved that young life, is a bona fide hero!

Okay, Trump is like a shiny new penny among the old worn out, as usual,sound bites of the PC politicians! I've voted over and over republican,tea party ..blah blah! They get in office and it's still stagnated,stalled! Well I'm sick of the GOPe! Screw em! I love this Trump mania! He's giving me a reason to even want to take these republicans to task! I'm not alone by no means! Too many conservatives are tired of the mealy mouths whining, well um we tried! UGH! Forget IT! Second chances are over these past years,hell I'm tired! I want to see another Leader of this Country to take charge and deliver what WE the People Want! Americans first above all others! Nothing less!
