What I personally would like to see from Trump and his campaign is a lot less bluster and bombast and a lot more policy and substance which I think is noticeably lacking in the Trump campaign.

Take taxes-—Does he favor the Fair Tax? Does he favor the flat tax? What does he think of our current corporate income tax rate-—the highest in the industrial world? I have no idea.

What is his position on the minimum wage?

What about the Export-Import Bank?

What is his position on Obamacare? Does he favor repealing it? If so, what type of system would he like to see in its place? I have no idea.

How would Trump deal with our $18 trillion national debt?

How would Trump deal with entitlement programs?

I have no idea. I would love to know.

What programs, what cabinet departments, would Trump repeal?

Which ones would he turn over to the states?

Once again I have no idea.

The whole thing is just a circus in my eyes.

If I could see some REAL reform and some substantive policy positions, I could change my mind.

I am ALWAYS skeptical of people who for the presidency as their very first elective office.

I would love to be convinced Trump isn’t a charlatan and a loose cannon.

I am very concerned about his past donations to the Clintons. What was he thinking?

I live in CA. Our primary is dead last in June. The race will probably be decided anyways before I get to vote on it.

Lol, so you already have all of that detailed information from the other 16 candidates?

I haven't read it, but those who have say Trump's book to be reissued Thursday with updates is filled with detailed policy views. He wouldn't be reissuing it if he didn't consider it an important statement of his views.

You and many others are just grasping for some way to drag Trump down, but nothing is working. He's put out more information than the other candidates. It's just that the first of the campaign weeks have been so focused on questions of immigration and Trump himself.

I totally agree.

Maybe they think they can stay in the "what" mode forever and simply not talk about "how".

That's what Obama did.

Try doing some research on your own or find the many articles that have been posted here.

When he first announced I thought there was no way I could support him. Then I read a couple of his books.

Cruz is still my favorite but I would have no problem voting for Trump.
