He’s going to build a wall, secure the border, deport illegals, repeal Obamacare, cut taxes for working people, and protect the second amendment, rebuild the military and defend Christianity—but he’s not conservative enough. Right.
Bears repeating and add "And is actually electable and will fight for these things".
I've been around New York City long enough -- and I have seen enough of Donald Trump -- to know what this country is in for if he is elected.
It won't be a terrible thing, but I suspect a lot of Freepers will be either changing their screen names, or will spend 4 or 8 years making excuses for hi every time he sells out his supporters.
Is this what Trump says he is going to do?
Right.
Because he also refuses to make any structural changes to the entitlement programs that are running out of money, promises that the government will guarantee health care for everyone (making his replacement even worse than Obamacare), and supports continuation of business subsidies. And that to your list of promises, and the deficit will explode faster than you can say Trump Casino. While the entitlements go bankrupt.
The real secret to Trump's popularity is the same as that of many politicians -- he tells people exactly want they want to hear, whether it is possible or not. Mexico will not pay for that Wall, Social Security and Medicare will run out of money, and crony capitalism will be thrown into truly high gear.
Oh hell, he's also going to slap huge tariffs on all Chinese goods, which will greatly raise prices to American consumers, while low-cost producers other than China step in to fill that gap.
But he's saying what people want hear, so possible or not, he's got a path to the nomination.
There's a sucker born every minute.
... He’s going to build a wall, secure the border, deport illegals, repeal Obamacare, cut taxes for working people, and protect the second amendment, rebuild the military and defend Christianity—but he’s not conservative enough. Right.
So he is going to deport illegals and fast track them right back in.. You do realize he said that don’t you?
You trust him to appoint conservatives to the courts after he trashed Scalia and suggested his liberal sister?
And you trust him although he came up with those ideas after his campain started although he has more contradictions in his past believes than 465 members of congress combined?
And then you have Cruz who fought against the UN and the Bush establishment in the SC and won.
Cruz won four other SC court cases, ALL in support of conservative values and against the progressive onslaught.
Can you find any instance of Reagan belittling anyone, much less anyone who doesn’t kiss his butt like donnie does?
Have you ever heard Cruz belittle anyone?
Donnie is not a conservative. His supporters do not care.
I do.
He says that “He’s going to build a wall, secure the border, deport illegals, repeal Obamacare, cut taxes for working people, and protect the second amendment, rebuild the military and defend Christianity”
Insert “says he’s” between “He’s” and “going.”
And that’s where we are. Time will tell.
“He’s going to build a wall, secure the border, deport illegals, repeal Obamacare, cut taxes for working people, and protect the second amendment, rebuild the military and defend Christianity—but he’s not conservative enough. Right.”
What would ever give you the idea that Trump is going to do what’s on your list? or any of it? Because he said so? He’s been on the other side of all these issues and has supported and contributed to those who are for open borders, amnesty, obamacare as well as single payer, higher taxes was for the “assault weapon” ban, pro abortion, etc. etc. etc. Donald Trump is not nor has he ever been Conservative. I don’t see how anyone can find him credible.
“but he’s not conservative enough. Right.”
Trump supported TARP, Auto Bailouts, Obama Stimulus
Trump supports continued funding of Planned Parenthood and Ethanol Subsidies
Trump is against Right-to-Work and for “Hate Crimes” Legislation.
Trump is uncomfortably complimentary of Government run health care.
So yeah, he is not conservative enough. He is a progressive populist.
And his past proclamations make you believe he's not just playing the populist card to get elected, why? Conservatives have NEVER been lied to by politicians looking to get elected.
