Trump will fade because of this kind of thing. He’s squishy (and uninformed) on abortion. He’s obviously not for the repeal of the 16th Amendment. There’s no way he’s going to move against fiat money and fractional-reserve banking.

He’s blunt and loud, but he’s NOT a radical—the good kind of radical.

None of the candidates are going to "move against" fiat money. That is a Ron Paul/Zero Hedge/Info Wars thing.

That isn't only not going to happen here, it isn't going to happen anywhere.

We're not going back to the gold standard. Period.

I don't believe Trump is an actual conservative and I don't care for a candidate like "the Donald" who is long on bluster but short on specifics and knowledge of the issues. I also am not keen on a populist protectionist, which Trump is, which would make the unions very happy. Saying that, it isn't a giant shock that he is for a progressive/graduated income tax system. If his plan is to simplify it and reduce taxes for all that is still far better than liberal tax schemes.

Not a Trump supporter at all, but also not going to jump on or exaggerate things he says and try to make them appear to be deal breakers for the people that do like him or are considering him.
