Looks like "The Donald" may be "pivoting toward the center" a bit early.

Don’t worry, by tomorrow he’ll deny having said it.

“My Title”?

You’ve been here long enough to know better.

This race has been his to lose. Maybe he already has due to the corrupt government/media complex. But he is not helping his own case. Not detailing key critical issues.

On the other hand, a good poker player keeps a straight face and does not show his hand until it is time.

Your title is misleading and ignorant.

Stop talking the truth, Mr. West. You and other true conservatives, according to Trumpateers, are now wrong.

This site; this party; this election cycle no longer listens to your commonsense. It's all about The Donald saying stuff the conservative base is PO'd about and has NO clue how he's going to actually change things. Bless you, and thank you for your honorable service. Something The Donald know nothing about, as much as he supports the military.

There's a type of Trump supporter that is utterly impervious to anything that may reflect poorly on their guy.

I'm referring to things Trumps says with his own mouth.

But there are others who have maintained the capacity for independent thought. I hope its not too late.

Our Wisconsin Freepers have sussed this out and explained it.

I don't recall everything, but they have the details.

It's out there in Freeperland somewhere :)

IMHO the conservatives so-called haven't done so hot. Everything, for the last 8 years, the liberals, Democrats, Rinos wanted has been enacted. So I have posted the following by a Canadian.

Trump Explained When was the last time you could vote for the ideal candidate? I’m old, and I always voted. I can’t remember ever thinking any were ideal. We always have two choices, usually Tweedledee and Tweedledum. If you didn’t vote for Tweedledee you got Tweedledum. That’s the way it is folks. Now consider this……An interesting analogy. You've been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoons. Hundreds of rabid, messy, mean, raccoons have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately, so you hire a guy. A pro. You don't care if the guy smells, you need those raccoons gone pronto and he's the guy to do it! You don't care if the guy swears, you don't care if he's an alcoholic, you don't care how many times he's been married, you don't care if he has plumber's crack...you simply want those raccoons gone! You want your problem fixed! He's the guy. He's the best. Period. That's why Trump… Yes, he's a bit of an ass. Yes, he's an egomaniac, but you don't care. The country is a mess because politicians are playing games and we are all sick and tired of Tweedledee and Tweedledum choices. The Democrats are killing us, the Republican Party is gutless, liberals don’t have a clue, and illegals are everywhere. You want it all fixed! You don't care that Trump is crude, you don't care that he insults people, you don't care that he had been friendly with Hillary. You don't care that he's been married 3 times, you don't care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O'Donnell, you don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslim terrorist. This country is weak, bankrupt, our enemies are making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegal's, we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo and Hamid is a special group with special rights to a point where we don’t even recognize the country we were born and raised in; “AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED”. Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want. You're sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, and sick of illegal's. You just want this thing fixed. Trump may not be a saint, but no person or company he has ever done business with has come forward and called him corrupt, or hard to do business with. He doesn’t have lobbyist money holding him, and he doesn’t have political correctness restraining him. All you know is that he has been well educated at the university of Pennsylvania business school, seems to have boundless energy, has been very successful, a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he's not a cowardly, deceitful, professional, politician. And he says he'll fix it. You don't care if the guy has bad hair. You just want those raccoons gone. Out of your house!. Now!!!! THIS MAY BE WHY HE LEADS THE POLLS

Ugh. Demonizes cutting spending and lionizes raising taxes, all in one soundbite. This is why I haven't been able to embrace Trump. I want to, because I'm getting disillusioned with Cruz. And I do love how Trump terrifies the entrenched political establishment that's been undermining our society for decades with their lies and lack of honor and character. But I don't know where he really stands on anything other than his two big issues. On everything else he's all over the place.

Bravado and willingness to fight back is good but it's not a platform.

Is there room for Allen West under the bus? I guess they’ll have to send him to the back, under the bus

Man oh man, I wish the off the record discussion of Trump with NYT about what he would REALLY do as POTUS would get aired. There is probably a pretty good reason he is adamant that none of it gets leaked.

If he does get the nomination many here will be utterly shocked at his transformation. Some of us will not be at all. A lying con man. He will say anything and do anything to get elected. The scummiest of lying politicians.

Where was this dopey author then?
