Wrong you are. I note you did not answer my question about his policy books. I also note you do not mention his support for Reagan when the Bush family was trying to push HW

He is and has always been a 2nd amendment advocate

Your words offer no proof only opinion

[South40]

I don't read books written by liberals.

He is and has always been a 2nd amendment advocate

Was he when he supported the "assault weapons" ban, even though there is no such thing?

Your liberal hero's past can be ignored if you so choose but you can't rewrite history, it is what it is.

Have a nice night.

“He is and has always been a 2nd amendment advocate”

Apparently you haven’t read Trump’s policy papers that you love to rant about either. Trump is and has been a gun-gabber, ON RECORD, at least up until 2013.

FROM TRUMP’S BOOK ‘The America We Deserve’. TRUMP WROTE: “The Republicans walk the NRA line and refuse to even limited restrictions. I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I also support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun.”

When asked by Ammoland if Trump still supports this position, Trump artfully dodged the question and only claimed (THIS IS ANOTHER DIRECT QUOTE) that he “still generally opposes gun control”.

ANOTHER DIRECT QUOTE FROM A TRUMP INTERVIEW: Trump recently claimed that ‘assault’ weapons should be banned by stating, “who needs them except criminals and police?”

HERE IS TRUMP’s 2012 Presidential position:

• Trump believes that assault weapons should be banned, “who needs them except criminals and police?”

• He wants a longer waiting period for hand guns, rifles and shotguns. We should be able to tell within 72 hours if a person has a record or mental issues that would prohibit ownership.

BELOW IS TRUMP’S 2012/2013 PRO-AMNESTY DOCUMENTED STATEMENTS:

“Romney’s “crazy policy of self deportation” cost him the Latino vote and the Republican party in general needs to “take care of this incredible problem that we have with respect to immigration, with respect to people wanting to be wonderful productive citizens of this country.”

“Whether intended or not, comments and policies of Mitt Romney and other Republican candidates during this election were seen by Hispanics and Asians as hostile to them, Trump says.

“Republicans didn’t have anything going for them with respect to Latinos and with respect to Asians,” the billionaire developer says.

“The Democrats didn’t have a policy for dealing with illegal immigrants, but what they did have going for them is they weren’t mean-spirited about it,” Trump says. “They didn’t know what the policy was, but what they were is they were kind.”

So you’re saying that you “know” Trump has changed his position in last 2 years on just about every topic except

BELOW IS TRUMP’S PRO-SOCIALIZED SINGLE PAYER POSITION FROM 09/27/2015:

Pelley: How do you fix it?

Trump: There’s many different ways, by the way. Everybody’s got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say because a lot of times they say, “No, no, the lower 25 percent that can’t afford private. But–”

Pelley: Universal health care.

Trump: I am going to take care of everybody. I don’t care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody’s going to be taken care of much better than they’re taken care of now.

Pelley: The uninsured person is going to be taken care of. How? How?

Trump: They’re going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. And, you know what, if this is probably—

Pelley: Make a deal? Who pays for it?

Trump: —the government’s gonna pay for it. But we’re going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it’s going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.

HERE ARE SOME MORE PRO-SOCIALIZED SINGLE-PAYER QUOTES FROM TRUMP:

• “If you can’t take care of your sick in the country, forget it, it’s all over. ... I believe in universal healthcare,” Trump told CNN’s Larry King in October 1999.

• “I would put forth a comprehensive health care program and fund it with an increase in corporate taxes, “ Trump told The Advocate right before he dropped out of the race in February 2000.

• “The Canadian plan also helps Canadians live longer and healthier than America. … We need, as a nation, to reexamine the single-payer plan, as many individual states are doing,” Trump writes in his 2000 book The America We Deserve.

While bantering with David Letterman on Jan. 8, 2015, Trump voiced admiration for Scotland’s publically funded health care system and suggested that the problem with the Affordable Care Act is its implementation.

TRUMP SUPPORTED SINGLE-PAYER SOCIALIZED MEDICINE EVEN IN TEH 2016 DEBATES:
Trump responded: “As far as single payer, it works in Canada, it works incredibly well in Scotland.”

So please forgive us if we don’t all drink the Trump koolaid, but it is very hard to believe that Trump has changed nearly EVERY SINGLE LIBERAL position that he has held for the last 30 years, including positions that he has held ON RECORD as recently as 2012, 2013, 2015, AND 2016. Trump is a fraud, but I know facts are irrelevant to Trumpsters because they “feel” and “know” and “believe” that Trump has changed. Trump is applying for a job and telling the gullible what they want to hear. He is a LIAR and a SHAM!
