Trump in '07: Bush Should Talk to Ahmadinejad

Consider what Trump had to say about the Bush Administration's approach to Iran: "Maybe the President, instead of saying let's not even see this guy, maybe he should be negotiating with him, maybe he should be talking with him."

Upon hearing that, Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doucy asked Trump with regard to Ahmadinejad, "Do you think he's mentally stable?" Trump replied, "Who are you talking about? The President?"

Bad history’s been trickling out about The Donald for a week now. This is the worst one by far...

[EternalVigilance]

Bump.

I’m actually surprised that there is not a Rudy/ The Donald movement on FR.

The Donald and Rudy share a moment.

I dislike Trump, but the president has to talk to everybody, especially our enemies. Reagan never refused to talk with the leaders of the Soviet Union. He doesn’t have to believe what they say, but he still has to meet with them.

“None of your clowns can beat Obama but Trump can.”

Would you vote for Hillary Clinton if she were a Republican, and could beat Obama?

And what makes you think Trump can beat Obama? He’s a nut, and that is showing up more and more.

Trying to stop Trump now is like trying to stop a wave from breaking (or is it braking?) at the beach. It won’t be successful. But like every other wave, it will break and then undertow back out to sea like every other wave. Each incoming wave has its “15 minutes”.

Everyone needs to hold off on crowning Trump king until more is known about him. He has done some positive things lately but who knows how he really thinks politically.

I suspect Trump may be primarily a fiscal only conservative and may be very liberal on some other issues that most of us here are interested in.

I’ll vote Trump in any primary. None of your clowns can beat Obama but Trump can. And that’s the truth!

There is no way I will vote for Trump in the primary. That is 100 percent accurate. It will pain me more than you can imagine to vote for him in the general. I will take nausea medicine in order to punch his name in the voting booth for the general. A guy who has been married a thousand times is going to be President of the United States makes me SICK. It will be 100 percent worse than having to vote for McCain.

[BfloGuy]

What next, are you going to dig up some quote from an entire year ago where Trump said he was in favor of abortion or gay marriage?

I think we can agree to ignore anything Trump said before today. And if we don't like that -- well, we'll just ignore that, too.

Trump is light years more conservative than Hillary. Just one example.... He says put our US Military on the Mexican border

[DeaconRed]

The Donald is a useful idiot.
He is accomplishing several things.
1. He is making the MSM bring up the BC.
2. He is showing people that he has changed his mind several times and is not electable .
3. He is showing how bad his hair is.
Now remember the election is a long way off. Things will change drastically before we have a GOP candidate.
Lets hope a Ronald Reagan is out there somewhere.

"TRUMP IN 1957 AT AGE 7 PULLS GIRL'S PIG TAIL IN SCHOOL...PROVES HE WAS A BULLY, DESTINED TO GROW UP A BECOME A LIBERAL AND RUN FOR PRESIDENT AS A REPUBLICAN SIMPLY TO DIVIDE/DESTROY THE TEA PARTY/CONSERVATIVES WHILE 'SECRETLY' WORKING TO HELP RE-ELECT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA."

[Impy]

Maybe Trump could have Kim-Jong Il and the Castro brothers over to the White House for a tea party using the lead cups he obviously drinks from.

And then he could negotiate with the clouds for more favorable weather.

[Notary Sojac]

I don't think anyone should consider themselves obliged to vote for a RINO such as Huck or Mitt just because the Democrat is worse.

And when you're talking RINO's, man, Huck and Mitt are bush league compared to a Hall of Famer like comb-over boy.

Here's what Jim Robinson has to say about Trump:

"Trump has had a lot of bad hair days. Just like Romney. Two bad hair guys who are more liberal than they are conservative and both run-of-the-mill liars and political whores. Either will say anything to get ahead. Just working the system the only way they know how. Charlatans."

But Bachmann, Palin, Santorum, Jindal, et al, are 100 times more conservative than Trump, and they are loyal to their spouses, and far more trustworthy in so many other ways.
