I will pass, I’ve seen Trump’s policy objectives.

Fine. I'll put you down for someone who prefers ignorance over a well informed decision.

Two questions: (1) If it's legally determined that Cruz is eligible to run, will you vote for him in the primary? In the general? (2) What candidate(s) would you be willing to vote for the in general if Trump is not the nominee?

Finally, based on some of the posts to this and other threads, it's becoming increasingly difficult to be convinced that Trump's 5th Avenue remark was actually a joke as has been claimed.

Why did the documentary get canned? Could it be because it had false information and they did not want to get sued?

I think that is likely. I don’t know who made it or why so I don’t know their agenda. I’m not watching it.

I see. So you don't have enough confidence in your ability to discern fact from fiction to view it. How well this speaks of the typical Trump voter. It's so like 8 years ago when another candidate who was being swooned over had groupies who didn't want to hear anything negative about him.

You have determined that you have sized up the content of the film plus the reason it was quashed which would indicate that you believe you have certain clairvoyant talents. I submit to you that it's cowardice, not clairvoyance, that keeps you from viewing it.

I have found a common thread running through (almost) all Trump supporters -- they are curiously uncurious regarding anything that might put Trump in a less-than-flattering light. And why should they have to do so, really? After all, this is only the position of the president of the United State's we're talking about. Why should we be bothered that the man has a history of making promises he can't or won't keep? Or that he's given to exaggeration when the simple truth should suffice? He means well. Isn't that all that really matters?

People are pro-Trump. So what? You are anti-Trump. So what?

I wonder if this is the last minute, hail Mary gotcha that Coulter said would come out? Regardless, it won't change any minds.

As promised, I have watched the entire video. Maybe I missed something, but I didn't see anything that Trump hasn't already talked about at his rally's: He was greedy, loved to build tall buildings, and making money. His life is pretty much an open book as he's been in the public eye forever. Interesting that the end of the video, which was 25 years ago, they pretty much declared Trump finished and not having any money. I also did some research on who made this video and their agenda, and find it was commissioned by Trump real estate rival, Leonard Stern. Here's an excerpt:

The website associated with the film says it was commissioned in 1988 by mogul (and reputed Trump enemy) Leonard Stern but never released because Trump threatened to sue everyone on Earth who was involved with it. A New York magazine piece about Stern and Trump from 1989 tells a similar story, though I'm not sure it goes so far as to support the verb "suppressed" more that no broadcasters wanted to deal with the pain in the ass of potential Trump suits (none of which were actually ever filed) over what was seen less as a hard-hitting 60 Minutes expose than as a kind of dishy tabloid piece. And, as the new site acknowledges, the documentary was publicly screened in 1991 in the Hamptons by original executive producer Ned Schnurman in a fruitless attempt to find distribution.

Also interesting is this video is on Weekly Standard website. Did you know that Rupert Murdoch keeps this failing "conservative" magazine afloat?

This was uploaded last fall, not at the “last minute.” If I’d found it then, I would have posted it then. I just now found it, so this is when I posted it. Capiche?

“So what?” Is that seriously your question? I suppose it doesn’t matter if any old candidate will do. But on a board where constitutional conservatism has been the sought-after standard for almost 20 years, it’s very troubling when the members are suddenly willing to settle for less. Much, much less.

My comment has nothing to do with the timing of your post. It was about Coulter warning about an ‘October Surprise’ kind of thing coming out. If you found it, it has been found by others. This could be it, or it could be something else.

Reading and understanding policy objectives shows someones ignorance? You use insults and opinion and you think that is well informed? You got your head up your you know what where the sun don’t shine mr rude!

Answer to question number (1) no I will not, I will stick with Trump to end of primary. (2) I will vote for any candidate to keep Hilliary or Sanders out of WH, some will require longer nose holding than others and all of them other than Trump I will have to hold my nose.

Same questions to you: (1) Will you vote for Trump in primary if it is determined Ted is not eligible to run or he has no chance of winning nomination? (2) what candidates other than Cruz would you be willing to vote for in general?
