That’s not a quote. Just more made up BS from Redstate.

The girls there are truly desperate.

[Jay Thomas]

How about the whole quote:

Trump: And you know what, there’s a point at which, let’s get to be a little bit establishment, because we gotta get things done, folks, okay? Believe me, don’t worry, we’re gonna get such great deals, but at a certain point, you can’t be so strident, you can’t not get along, we gotta get along with people. You know in the old days, Ronald Reagan, and I remember it so vividly, I was a young guy, I helped Ronald Reagan, I really liked him... so what happens, Ronald Reagan would get along with (Democrat) Tip O’Neill, and they’d sit down, and they’d make great deals for everybody. That’s what the country’s about, isn’t it? I mean, we can all be tough but at some point we gotta get our country back on track.

Thanks

How about a direct link that isn’t third hand through Red State to “the Blaze” and heaven knows where else the real video is. I’m tired of click bait BS.

[nikos1121]

Oh, G-D here we go again.

I want him to go to Washington and work with the people BUT not beholding to the lobbies.

ONce again, I don’t understand the point. OF course, if it’s in the Blaze it’s BS.

We have much to do folks. Much to do. We need to re-invent the establishment in Washington.

Let me give you one example.

CAn you imagine what the first budget will be like that Trump sends to Congress? It will probably be the very first time a president sends a budget that will be so lean, the “establishment” won’t know what to do with it. It will challenge them.

IN short, I see Trump making the “establishment” his establishment.

Just got off another story here where Trump is being accursed of being a “quasi-dictator.” Now here, he’s being accused of being a sell-out to the establishment. I guess throw up enough @#$@ and see what sticks.

[VitacoreVision]

Red State Fail.

[McGruff]

Another rant by Red State is Breaking News. Come on. You people are desperate.

[Moorings]

You have to translate from regular English to Trumplish for those on the trump kool-aide.

[Candor7]

Trump is offally hard on the strumpettes at Red State.

Pull up your panties girls and stop shi*ting on our future :-)

-— so that he can get some really great, super huge, classy deals done. -—

He could make it possible for developers to collude with government officials to take private property by eminent domain. The developers make money and the government gets tax money. Win-win!

[Redmen4ever]

Making deals isn’t a bad thing. It depends on what kind of deals. The insiders make deals among themselves at the expense of ordinary people. In such manner, the country gets turned into so many special interest groups carving up the turkey of Joe and Jane ordinary person.

For example, more tax deductions and higher income tax rates for those who don’t have tax deductions.

For another example, opposing free trade (which hurts our ag exports) and promising more subsidies to farmers.

On the other hand, here is a good deal: phasing-in free trade with Central American countries so sugar beet growers in this country aren’t immediately wiped out by sugar cane imports.

Deals that expand economic freedom that are designed so they don’t hurt any group of us badly, such as phase-ins, those are good deals.

If Donald Trump is the next President, it will be very important who controls the Congress. We will need freedom-expanding deals, not crony capitalism-expanding deals.

[patq]

Sounds like Trump will infiltrate the Establishment and destroy it from the inside. That is the only way to do it. The man is a master strategist and tactician. Go Trump!

[randita]

On any given day, we see these statements made regarding Trump. They seem mutually exclusive.

He’s an outsider. He’s going to make the establishment bow to him.

He’s got establishment support. He’s going to make deals with them.

If you're backing SOCIALIST Trump for President, ponder this .

Donald Trump and Eminent Domain, August 22nd, 2015

... More, Trump has publicly defended the confiscation of private property for eminent domain, even when the use for which the property is confiscated is purely private in nature:

Trump consistently defended the use of eminent domain.
Interviewed by John Stossel on ABC News, he said:
"Cities have the right to condemn for the good of the city.
Everybody coming into Atlantic City sees this terrible house instead of staring at beautiful fountains and beautiful other things that would be good."
Challenged by Stossel, he said
that eminent domain was necessary to build schools and roads.
But of course he just wanted to build a limousine parking lot.

Once again, this is Donald Trump's vision of private property rights when he was just another private citizen.
Imagine how much more damage he could do as the leader of the Federal executive branch.

Thomas Sowell called it CORRECTLY !

...Trump boasts that he can make deals, among his many other boasts.
But is a deal-maker what this country needs at this crucial time?
Is not one of the biggest criticisms of today's Congressional Republicans
that they have made all too many deals with Democrats,
betraying the principles on which they ran for office?

Bipartisan deals -- so beloved by media pundits -- have produced some of the great disasters in American history.

Contrary to the widespread view
that the Great Depression of the 1930s was caused by the stock market crash of 1929,
unemployment never reached double digits in any of the 12 months that followed the stock market crash in October, 1929.

Unemployment was 6.3 percent in June 1930 when a Democratic Congress and a Republican president made a bipartisan deal that produced the Smoot-Hawley tariffs.
Within 6 months, unemployment hit double digits --
and stayed in double digits throughout the entire decade of the 1930s.

You want deals?
There was never a more politically successful deall than that which Neville Chamberlain made in Munich in 1938.
He was hailed as a hero, not only by his own party but even by opposition parties, when he returned with a deal that Chamberlain said meant "peace for our time."
But, just one year later, the biggest, bloodiest and most ghastly war in history began.

If deal-making is your standard,
didn't Barack Obama just make a deal with Iran --
one that may have bigger and worse consequences than Chamberlain's deal?

What kind of deals would Donald Trump make?
He has already praised the Supreme Court's decision in "Kelo v. City of New London" which said
that the government can seize private property to turn it over to another private party.

That kind of decision is good for an operator like Donald Trump.
Doubtless other decisions that he would make as president would also be good for Donald Trump,
even if for nobody else.

[mylife]

I understand Trumps MO.

Kick the door in, squeeze the lady of the houses hinder, tell her to fetch him the masters best spirits, chug a bit of that and hurl insults at all while taking notes on who responds to who.
I get it.
Not sure I want it.

[Awgie]

I really detest that way folks will take a quote and put their own spin on it, implyng that the spin is literal truth, when it is really the commentators attempt to use the quote inaccurately.

The same is common with headlines used to attract clicks. I often find the headline blatantly misrepresents the story.

Trump was being reasonable. He is at his heart a deal maker. He needs democrats to forge majorities, to get deals done.

The real issue is specifically which deals Trump would seek to make. Right now I trust that he would focus on the border, fair trade, the military, the budget and healthcare.

[annieokie]

They don't want to hear this and don't care. Yet it is what he said.

If they believe he will do everything he says he will do on other issues because he said it, then it follows that he will do this as well.....There is no other way you can take this statement.

But Oh, well......Obama also told us what he was going to do, and he did it.
