The Washington Times ^ | 6/16/2015 | Jessica Chasmar

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump switched political party affiliations at least five times since the late '80s...

...he left the party as recently as 2011.

Mr. Trump registered for the first time in New York as a Republican in July 1987, only to dump the GOP more than a decade later for the Independence Party in October 1999, according to the New York City Board of Elections.

In August 2001, the billionaire enrolled as a Democrat. Eight years later, he returned to the Republican Party...

After only two years as a registered Republican, Mr. Trump left the party again, and in December 2011 marked a box that indicated, "I do not wish to enroll in a party."

Mr. Trump returned to the GOP in April 2012...

Are you a registered Democrat? If not, why not?

That is the crux of the doubt people like me are feeling about Trump.

Then how come in December and January trump supporters have this mean that he had never once which parties and they showed some kind of document that shows he’s always been a Republican all his life?

The FRumpsters are now sounding like Salon & Democrat Underground as Trump parrots their Iraq talking points.

Trump hearts pro-abortion, baby-part-selling Planned Parenthood.

Mocks the disabled.

Trump is a 1st class New York Jackass.

Nobody really cares about this and I suspect you really don’t either. :-)

But but but he did it because he’s a businessman. That’s what you have to do to survive in the business world. After all look at how many times George Soros or the Koch brothers swapped party!

Oh wait.

Were Trump a Democrat, it would be easier and a lot cheaper to sit on the sidelines and work to get Hillary in office.

It's my belief that he is appalled at what is going on in this nation and the problems have grown so large they threaten the very existence of the country.

Some are worried about Trump's ego not realizing that same ego is a driver against failure.

Debatable, but my issue isn't that I think he's a Democrat, it's that I don't know how much of my conservatism he actually believes in. More than Bush I think.
