Why don’t you do a little research on Trump, instead of just believing what the media tells you?

Excuse me. I have not watched msm since the 80’s, so try again and I have not trusted them since the Vietnam era.

Well... I spent almost 6 hours in a train station in Chicago a few days ago, every seat in the waiting areas had a monitor nearby playing CNN, and CNN spent most of their time (outside of commercials) attempting to attack Trump. Strangely, their schtick* sounded nothing like what you are saying the media is telling us...

*It sounded more to me like a poorly constructed attempt to sway moderate voters. For example, if CNN really wanted to assist Trump in wrecking the GOP, they’d have played the footage in which Trump eviscerated Jorge Ramos. In fact, in almost 6 hours, they never did. (If you think CNN would not throw a reporter to the wolves to further their long term goals, then you don’t know those people well enough!)

Of course, you and I may differ: In the last year I’ve “come around” to the argument that the GOPe needs to be destroyed. I say that as someone who’s been a conservative Republican (at least 95%) for over 40 years.

As for Trump, I have reservations, but instead of asking intelligent questions about his positions (which might actually get picked up and asked of Trump at his news conferences if they were posted half as often as you attack here) you just repeat ad nauseum your simplistic attacks. For those of us who must spend 99% of our time on work, family, etc., someone like you who obviously has time to spend formulating astute questions could provide a valuable service by doing so.

Example: “Mr. Trump, WHY do you think single payer health insurance would have worked well in the US 20 years ago, but not today? What specifically was different then vs. now?”
