If Trump is for an individual and/or employer mandate he is off my list of candidates.
Well, he certainly is espousing some kind of big government solution to all the "people dying in the streets" isn't he?
His use of the "people dying in the streets" phrase is straight out of the democrat playbook. The fact is that even before Obamacare, there were tons of safety nets for the poor so that nobody had to "die in the streets." In fact, the poorer you are, the better coverage you got.
Trump is not the person you imagine him to be. He is the person he has been for the last 50 years. You don't suddenly become a conservative in your 60's. I became a conservative in my early 20's. The older you get the more set in your ways you become.
