Of course, I’d would be thrilled to be wrong about Trump. I have zero faith in Trump however. He became a conservative in the last few years, supposedly. I find it amazing that so many “conservatives” have been willing to turn a blind eye to Donald’s past and give him a free pass all the way to the Presidency.
What’s more amazing is the vile insults thrown our way for questioning Trump’s conservative bona-fides.
It’s truly remarkable that Trump supporters have this unwavering faith that Donald is going to “make America great again” just because he says so. How will he do that? Do you really believe he won’t backtrack from his campaign promises (which are what exactly?)?
I don’t know, call me skeptical.
Ted Cruz has done nothing but what he said he would do in 2012 and yet he has been labeled on FR and elsewhere by Trump supporters as all sorts of things from a crazed lunatic to a GOP establishment mole. Call me skeptical on that too.
If I’m wrong either way, of course I would admit it and express sorrow. On the other hand, if Trump turns out to be a total disaster I know there are thousands of supporters who would never admit to having supported him.
Please go to Trump’s website and read his position papers. There are details there. Taxes and healthcare are both notable. He’s very strong 2A and both of his sons are avid hunters and lifetime members of the NRA.
Go to youtube and look at his speech at the Republican Convention back in ‘88.
He’s been a solid economic conservative for thirty years. He’s been slower to come around on social issues, but that’s pretty normal for today’s American.
Be skeptical, but at least look with clear eyes. There’s a reason why so many of us support him. No. We’re not all blinded radicals who are easily duped. Have respect for your fellow FReepers. We *are* paying attention and we’ve done our homework.
I don’t believe a word DT says.
He’s a Dem who is telling people what they want to hear - Obama redux
Hope & Change = Make America Great
