Look how Chump operates. Caught red-handed now with his vicious attacks on George Bush, who most conservatives had issues with, he now says but for Bush there would have likely been no Obama. That may well be true. I have been a harsh critic of Bush's spending, including in my book. But Chump was calling Bush EVIL and demanded his IMPEACHMENT because of the Iraq war and in the middle of that war. He said Bush lied to get us into Iraq. His comments were vile and outrageous, not unlike the America-hating leftists who sought to undermine are armed forces there. Now he wants us to believe that his criticism of Bush was because Bush's poor record set the stage for Obama? Chump attacked Bush over Iraq because if you were a big-mouth, attention-seeking liberal, it was the thing to do. He had no altruistic or principled conservative motive for doing so at the time and expressed none.
As recently as last year, while conservatives and Tea Party activists were organizing and rallying against Obama, Pelosi, Reid and their radical agenda, Chump was helping to fund some our opponents. He contributed to left-wing, Tea Party-hating menaces like Chuck Schumer, Anthony Weiner, and Harry Reid. What about his contributions to Charlie Crist, while Crist was running against Marco Rubio? Did he donate to any of the Tea Party candidates? Did he contribute to the Tea Party movement in any way, with time or money, before today? Why not?
Chump also praised Nancy Pelosi. He thought she was great. I played the audio. I guess he was just mistaken, again. He supported universal health care, but not any more, of course. He supported abortion and gay marriage, but that was then, this is now. He supported John Kerry for president in 2004, but that's because Bush was so evil. He leaned on government officials to use eminent domain against a little old lady whose home happened to be in the way of a parking lot he wanted to build for one of his casinos in Atlantic City, but he has always been for private property rights.
So now Chump rails against China and demands Obama's birth certificate and we are supposed to swoon over the man. But when asked about the Ryan budget, he turns stupid again -- he says Ryan should not take the lead on this, we need a bipartisan consensus to move forward? And with whom do we build this bipartisan consensus? Reid? Obama? Is Chump really this dumb, or is he, once again, trying to figure out which way the wind is blowing?
Chump is a phony and dissembling. He called a hastily organized press event this morning because I, and others, are on to him.
TRENDING: Trump lashes out at George W. Bush and Obama
Today he is speaking at a local Tea Party rally. And why? Because now he wants our support, not because he supports us or our principles, or ever did. Chump is about Chump. And he thinks we're too stupid to notice. Are we?
I don’t think McCain wanted to win.
He just wanted to beat the other Republicans.
I said if.
But I do get the fact that you haven’t taken a stand on the issue of moral relativism. It’s the hardest test there is, and the true test of a man.
They are willing to defend a guy whose conservative track record is nonexistent, and who has made it clear that he is willing to go third party if he has to.
But as long as he is the current cheerleader for their pet cause...nothing else seems to matter.
Obama's second term, here we come!
I would be surprised if Trump’s position on Sarah—his personal opinion, coming from the heart—is generally favorable.
But Trump can’t state this because the audience he’s targeted to sell his product is mostly Sarah Palin fans.
That sums it up.
In the person of Donald Trump is where birtherism and conservatism separate, and become opposed to each other!
You don't know me. I take a resolute stand on 'moral relativism'...I'm agin it.
I've gotta run til later. Thx for chatting.
Respectfully.
later
Trump is a chump and anyone who gives him an ounce of credibility is just the kind of sucker that keeps him going. His philosophy is along the lines of P.T. Barnum. He is just amusing himself and further inflating the most enormous ego in the world.
The Donald is simply seeking out another challenge. That’s who he is.
Listen. I’m not sold on Trump either, but the GOP could learn from him.
I just wish for little disruptions while he’s on the document hunt, that’s all.

Fine...but why is it necessary to trash a solid constitutional conservative like Levin in the process?
...because Trump is the only one with the gonads to go after the BC issue, which should have been an issue for Levin.
all im going to say about Trump is at least he has the balls to stand up to Obama. Not a single republican candidate will stand up to him ever. If Bachmann or Palin run I will vote for either of them if not those two then I will vote Trump or nothing. I will not waste a vote on Mittens and company regardless if it helps Obama get elected or not. If we win the Senate then we at least stop Obama’s agenda cold and his ability to nominate progressive judges.
Why is it necessary for a solid constitutional conservative like Levin to act like Karl Rove?
The Godless capitalist generally lets you keep more of your own money.
For the record, Trump praised Palin lavishly.
But only half the time, if that much.
Remember, we’re talking about true Godless capitalists—not capitalists who think they’re operating as Godless while in fact they’re working within the God-fearing, traditional American system.
The first principle of the Godless capitalist is self promotion—it overrules any other principle.
The ideology of the Godless capitalist holds that the rights of others can be taken from them when the ends justify these means.
