I am not electing TRUMP’s history, all of which is one long street fight in NYC, against some good and some very bad players, in a rough political neighborhood.
The man is a sympathetic. Being “for* immigration is excusable. I’m from TEXAS. We grew up with illegals around here for decades. They are our friends and mostly work for us domestically, or in plants and factories. We don’t want them ship wrecked, back to a place where some have never been.
HOWEVER, full scale invasion by Mexicans and South Americans, in a culture of now drug cartels and human trafficking is NOT what TRUMP supports.
We change when it becomes a whole sale ASSAULT on our country, peppered with criminal elements, killers and become a forever cradle to grave, with real potential for ISIS infiltration! That is the TRUMP of today.
If TRUMP is meant with congressional enemies he will MOST CERTAINLY enjoy the precedent Obama has set, in order to UN-do what Obama has DONE. Count on it.
Don’t talk to me about “true conservative” when electability ACTUALLY matters in the first place, and chutzpah is critical.
TRUMP has it all, thanks.
TRUMP, 2016
Maybe you SHOULD elect Trump’s history or at least take a closer look at it. So basically you just admitted to blindly supporting the man.
What guarantees do you have that Trump will deliver and actually do anything about immigration? Because he says so? I prefer to look at his actions, which do NOT speak well of Trump.
However, you Trumpets continuously attempt to tear apart Cruz’s past, while excusing Trump’s and saying you’re ‘not electing Trump’s past’. You can’t have it both ways. If Cruz’s past actions are an indicator of his future potential then Trump’s past is also an indicator.
I’m born and bred a Texas and, yes, we do want the illegals that are coming here gone and we don’t want them back. That has been pretty consistent for most Texas conservatives for decades so Trump’s support of amnesty is not excusable. Besides, you just admitted that Trump has been “for* immigration” aka amnesty, but then you condemn Cruz for not being hard enough on immigration. You can’t prove Trump won’t go back to his roots and become pro-amnesty again once elected. I’m just tired of the hypocrisy from the Trumpets.
Trump will get the same reception from conservatives for bypassing congress that Obama got. It is still wrong and won’t help anything. A good example is Trump saying he will build the wall, which we do need. He can’t do anything without congress and if he tries then nothing will get done because congress won’t fund the wall and Trump, for all of his bloated rhetoric, can’t fund the wall without congress. We are a republic for a reason; not a dictatorship.
I think you will find out Trump does not have anything other than reality tv shock appeal, which is always short lived. He will not appeal to conservatives (and no...libertarians are NOT conservatives) because the rest of his policies are liberal. That is why he is the only candidate polling behind or even with Hillary and the rest of the candidates are polling ahead of Hillary in the general election.
If electability is all that matters to you over principles and values then you are no different than an Obamabot. You are clearly not thinking in the best interest of this country.
