Alright we get it. You can’t stand Trump and your positive statements are simply camouflage covering. What you’re really waiting for is for him to stumble so you can say “I told you so.”
You have the right to your opinion, of course. But have the honesty to say so and not continue to pick apart everyone’s opinion with your “concern.”

You can take all your “Hope and Change” with all its insurance policies and lawyers standing in the wings, while I follow my instincts and my not inconsiderable analyses of the choices and choose my hope and change with a large dose of reality.

Apparently you DON’T get it. I actually LIKE Trump. I just don’t trust any man and the more they resonate with the people, the more I want to vet who they REALLY are. I felt the same way about Reagan in 1980. But after vetting him, well, 1980 was the only presidential race in my lifetime (voting since 1972) where I voted FOR a candidate.

The concerns are real and they need to be vetted. The stakes are too high. This really is the most powerful office on the planet.

You infer a lot.

During the 1980 election I would tell anyone who would listen that “hope and change” is what Stalin and Hitler and many others ran on. I would point out that the phrase never includes detail of what that “change” might be.

Of course, a lot of people realized, after the fact, that what obama meant by change was not what they thought he meant. It is POSSIBLE that the same could be true with Trump. He is not Jesus. He is a fallible man just like you and me. Before I jump all the way on his wagon I want to knot what he REALLY MEANS TO DO if he becomes president. I don’t mean what he “claims” he will do. I mean what he will really do.

We find out by listening to his words and comparing them to his actions, both past and present.

I don’t make as big a deal of people like Kasich because I don’t think they have a chance. They are an irreverence. Trump matters. If I’m going to actually sign the contract on this car I’m gonna kick the tires. A cool paint job is not enough.
