Go ahead and spam the thread. I notice you haven’t commented on Trumps statement that Ted Cruz shouldn’t have called out the liar McConnell for being a liar.
Trump is going to be a go along to get along president. He has said as much. Ethanol subsidies, universal healthcare, touchback amnesty, money for the Clinton Foundation.
If you look up Crony Capitalist in the dictionary, there is a picture of Donald Trump.
A true conservative in the mold of McConnell. No wonder he’s criticizing Cruz.
I concur and furthermore why do I need someone breaking down Trump (trying to cover for him and painting a rosey image for dupes to be duped) when the man himself could explain why he does what he does. I don’t listen to others and their psycobabble trying to analyze this or that. I take a man for his words and t.Trump supports McConnell plain and simple
I have commented on that. If I commented more than I have it would be spamming the board.
Honesty versus Brutal Frankness

That is what Trump is talking about. It’s why it wasn’t in Ted’s best interests to attack McConnell. And I loved it when Ted did it. Trump is talking about the art of the deal. There was no art in what Ted did.
The example of the robber-murderer asking where your family is hiding is the perfect way to illustrate being brutally frank is not the honest thing to do. Nor is it in your best self interests.
That is what Trump is calling out Ted on. If the object is to make good deals for the country - and deals will be made - you don’t harm your cause that way. By deals I don’t mean the crappy ones congress always makes. I don’t think Trump would compromise like congress normally does. I think Trump would use the long knives in the back rooms, not in public.
Listen to what Ivanka says about impossible deals that her dad made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOGD9mvzIi4
I’ve been involved in union contract negotiations for over ten years. It’s fun to deploy and use tactical nuclear weapons, but one has to be so careful that the radiation doesn’t kill you too. I wonder if Ted would do it the same way again.
If Trump gets in, so many, many good people who worshipped him are gonna be disappointed.
We cannot trust him.
