as the real donnie emerges with statements like the one about funding the GOOD part of Planned Parenthood.....we will need a LOT of POPCORN...and patience with the fanboys who think the donnie is better than sliced bread.
Good article. The blind support for Trump that I have seen on free republic has really scared me. I always thought that us conservatives were informed and cared about the issues and so I have been shocked to see so many buy blindly into Trump’s personality cult.
Hillary, Obama horrible. Dead bodies litter the earth. All other candidates at the mercy of donors. America insolvents. Trump has skin in the game. Trump had issues but all other candidates would lose their lifeline ($$$) of they proved they’ve escaped the political matrix. This is Trump’s election to lose. The disenfranchised sit by and watch.
People are projecting onto Trump what they want to see.
Having watched him tonight, this is all too true. Does anyone actually remember Ronald Reagan? Trump has nothing in common.
Trump just seems like a New Yorker to me and since I grew up with them he doesn’t bother me at all. NYers say stuff all the time but it doesn’t really mean that’s what they really mean. It’s kind of venting.
The rest of the country does not understand this.
-(F)riend (O)f (B)ill-and Hillary
-Used government to seize private property of woman in the way of his state-subsidized development
-Pro-abortion
-Supports more gun control than Mitt Romney.
-CONSERVATIVE CHAMPION!
Donald Derangement Syndrome symptom #29 - blindly thinking Trump supporters are blind.
BUMP ditto
I think this is a brilliant piece.
I have been a fan of Trump’s knocking stuff over and breaking things up until he starts doing it for the sake of breaking things, and not to push a Conservative agenda.
We may have reached that stage based on comments from him, and his supporters.
Raising a bear is fun until the day he turns around and devours you.
The reason that Trumps supporters are blind is that they don’t seem to care about his liberal history and the fact that even since he got into the campaign he keeps flip-flopping on issues.
For example, in 2011 he was pro-abortion, when he got into the campaign he said that he had become pro-life and even said that we should shut down the government to defund planned parenthood and then today he says that actually there are good parts of planned parenthood and that he would look into funding them.
Similarly, during the 2012 campaign he criticized Romney for alienating Hispanics with his self-deportation plan. Then when Trump starts his campaign he stakes out a position as a hardline anti-immigration candidate. Then over the last week he has walked that back to the place where he actually supports amnesty for most noncriminal illegal aliens. Basically Trump just says what he thinks people want to hear and there is no consistency to his positions.
Only one candidate in this race can say they proudly voted for Hillary Clinton for Senate!!
The man in the white suit with mink shoal, carrying a silver cane.... the one, the only, Pimpus Maximus Donaldo Trump!!
In the Iowa and NH polls, Trump is only 4, 5 percentage points ahead and I’ve enjoyed what he has said but he has gone from “shut down the government to defund Planned Parenthood” to this new position he is espousing. That won’t be good for the Evangelical and other conscientious pro-life voters. Trump’s points were close to the Democratic talking points for Planned Parenthood and PP applauded what DT said. So, this is a bit of a misstep.
Also, for those many people who have talked of a Trump Cruz ticket, this could become an issue as well; but there is a lot of time before the convention but it is definitely something to watch. Cruz is a rather hard-core pro-lifer it seems to me.
Exactly, this guy is truly a clown. Funding the “good part” of Planned Parenthood, or “evolving” on gay marriage to now accept it, or having “Mexico” pay for the wall. This is mutton-headed nonsense.
I was thinking something more like this - Donald Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Trump:
“All my illusions
Projected on her
The ideal, that I wanted to see...
From the song “Halo Effect” by the rock group RUSH.
Words on the album cover introducing the song:
I HAD FALLEN HELPLESSLY IN LOVE with one of the performers. She was so different from “the girl I left behind,” and I was beginning to understand I had only pretended she was right for me. I pursued my beautiful acrobat obsessively until she let me be with her - then I suffered her rejection and contempt. Once again, I had created an ideal of the perfect soulmate, and tried to graft it onto her. It did’t fit. Such illusions have colored my whole life.
Lyrics:
What did I see?
Fool that I was
A goddess, with wings on her heels
All my illusions
Projected on her
The ideal, that I wanted to see
What did I know?
Fool that I was
Little by little, I learned
My friends were dismayed
To see me betrayed
But they knew they could never tell me
What did I care?
Fool that I was
Little by little, I burned
Maybe sometimes
There might be a flaw
But how pretty the picture was back then
What did I do?
Fool that I was
To profit from youthful mistakes?
It’s shameful to tell
How often I fell
In love with illusions again
So shameful to tell
Just how often I fell
In love with illusions again
A goddess with wings on her heels ...

If you mean completely unbearable, then I would agree.
This is mutton-headed nonsense.
Yep.
Hes not quite bright enough to realize how fatuous his grand statements are.
he is in fact........ an Unctuous Bumpkin with Money!!
the fanboys already hate my guts .....for calling him a con man
“I got a solution....You’re a D—K....South Carolina, What’s Up!”
