An old article, but relevant in today's elections as Trump is trying to re-invent himself again.

We have been so thoroughly screwed by obama and the GOP since 2008 that all I care about is what he or any other candidate plans to do with the situation we face now.

I support Trump the candidate. No, I don't want him as the nominee and I don't think that this time next year he will be.

But many the other 15 will see that the public doesn't want timidity from their leaders ... or timidity tempered with lashing out solely at your own party.

Two issues:

I gather you still continue to support criminal illegals
murdering and raping Americans.

I gather you still continue to support giving the Mullahs
nuclear weapons, and not using the words “Islam”
and “terrorism” in the same sentence.

Given the last 10 years, I consider bailouts to be a key Conservaitve value. At least the Cons sure like to do it.

I agree...but the question becomes WHAT does Trump plan to do? So far, we haven’t gotten many answers.

“You cannot lose the auto companies. They’re great. They make wonderful products.”

Great companies that make wonderful products tend to be profitable and do not require government assistance.

I really don't care what he has said years ago - most all of the GOP candidates have flipped and flopped particularly those working in the political field.

I CURRENTLY SUPPORT TRUMP BECAUSE HE APPEARS TO BE THE ONLY REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE WHO HAS THE FINANCIAL WHEREWITHALL TO NOT HAVE TO COW TOW TO THE POLITICAL FUNDING MACHINE - e.g. Rove and the Chamber of Crony Commerce - AND KNOWS HOW TO SHOUT BACK AT THE MOST HATED ORGANIZATION IN AMERICA TODAY - THE MEDIA.

You know what?

I care more about him kicking elite GOP *AND* Dem a$$ than what he did in the past

They have all done many many times worse.

WE DO NEED TO GET HIM TO TALK ABOUT GUTTING THE SIZE OF GOVERNMENT and stop being a single issue campaign mislabeled as anti-immigration by the praetorian media

I supported the bail-outs. Auto manufacturers affect far too large a sector of our economy. But I think we should be raising import tariffs so bail-outs aren’t necessary.

It doesn’t matter.

Americans have had it with the direction of this country, which is straight down.

And Americans have had it with the useless, feckless, worthless, pointless, lying GOP, and from what I can see, none of its standard candidates have a snow ball’s chance in Hell of becoming president, and it wouldn’t matter if they did become president anyway.

If someone says they are going to change the direction of this failing country, then that is who they are going to go with.

I can’t tell you if Trump is lying or not, but I can tell you that the GOP and its candidates are lying, because that is all they ever do.

As opposed to the other dozen or so that are running that are? He is the only one with the stones, thus far, to keep fighting back...and that is VERY refreshing...hopefully contagious...but, I doubt it.

I’m scared because Trump doesn’t have to be the candidate BUT almost none of the politicians are smart enough, strong enough, or care enough to stand up for this country.

My God we are seeing racism, illegality and crazy leftism every day and no one is opposing it. They literally are allowing the destruction of America.
