I vote for pulling the thread.

Right, this isn’t a double down, it’s a repost/flashback.

Why should a thread be pulled just because the article wasn’t posted back in May when Trump was doing CAIR’s dirty work? Back in May, Trump was just your average media hound trying to make his next buck off his controversies, so no one bothered to post his latest ramblings. Now he’s running for president, and (falsely) claiming to be a conservative, so it behooves us to consider all of his statements, not just the ones from the last couple of months when he started to pretend that he’s a conservative.

Remember, unlike almost all of the other presidential candidates, Trump has never *done* anything that can help us glean his political ideology. We just have his words on which to judge him. Why should we limit ourselves only to those wiords that he and his fans want us to hear, and ignore the words that he and his fans want us to forget? And his comments about Pamela Gelker (a brave America that refuses to back down from Islamists despite the obvious danger that it creates for her) are less than three months old, so we’re not talking about ancient history.

So, my two cents are that the thread should stay on News/Activism or Extended News. Oh, and that Scott Walker, Ted Cruz and Bobby Jindal are the real conservatives in the race.
