Trump on 9/9/15:
“I hate the concept of it, but on a humanitarian basis, you have to,” Trump said in his first Fox News appearance in two weeks, appearing on “The O’Reilly Factor.”
“This was started by President Obama when he didn’t go in and do the job he should have when he drew the line in the sand, which turned out to be a very artificial line,” Trump said in reference to Obama’s red-line warning to Syrian leader Bashar Assad in 2013. “But you know, it’s living in hell in Syria. There’s no question about it. They’re living in hell, and something has to be done.”
When he saw the mess in Europe and the opportunity for ISIS to sneak in, he changed. Not unreasonable.
Someone earlier mentioned some parallels with Arnold in CA. Here, in MA, I'm seeing parallels with Curt Shilling. Curt made initial motions to run for Sinate. After some interviews, some speeches, it became clear to most he could espouse some conservative ideas in concept, but his core was no way Jose a conservative, and did not understand its fundamentals.
