A Response to Free Republic Trump Critics
Vanity

Posted on 08/31/2015 12:43:37 AM PDT by Behind the Blue Wall

Why Trump?

1. Illegal immigration is the only issue; if it's not stopped soon, America will become like California -- a demographic one-party state.

2. Politics is about name-recognition and none of the other candidates besides Trump has the name recognition to challenge Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton.

Therefore, Trump is the only candidate with a chance to win who has promised to do the only thing that matters.

Big to on a is right—though a paid online media lackey for one of the other candidates wouldn’t be able to admit that.

Third most stupid comment I’ve read on FR. Only the fact that the two stupider comments were almost psychotically idiotic bumps this one down to the third slot.

And your posts rank as those with the least intelligence on FR as they have no substance, no counter-argument, nothing.

You act like a child crying for attention.

Trump doesn’t care about following protocol. So if it could be legally done he might consider it as long as Boehner wasn’t Speaker.

I'm not sure. President Trump could use a co-operative Speaker Boehner...leverage.

I would rally around Cruz for all i was worth if Trump was not a candidate.

But as long as Trump is outgunning all the others, by huge margins, he’s my candidate of choice.

Say what you will about Trump, he’s resonating with the middle class, with both dem’s ,reps and indies.

Who says Boehner would be cooperative? There is something so off about him..maybe being blackmailed or maybe just a drunk.

We need to get rid of The Turtle and The Drunk

Totally agree with you...and have for many years on this point.

But I'm wanting to see if Trump is as good at Making the Deal as his book suggests. (Isn't that the essence of politics?)

My first impression was that TC had borrowed one of DT's jackets for the photo-op.

Immigration is of vast importance but it is no more important than many other issues.

A presidency (and congress) based in the constitution and its restrictions are equally important.
Religious liberty is very important. The fact that its in the very first amendment speaks to its importance.
Federal overreach and state sovereignty are important.
The 2nd amendment is important.
The right to life is important.

There are a multitude of issues that are equally important to border control. Fixating on one while ignoring the ongoing progressivism only continues to push America further to the left.

If those are the numbers, then it’s too late period. Nothing anyone can do about it.

"Once you drill down, illegal immigration is desired by those who feel government has a role in all things in life....jobs, poverty, civil rights, healthcare, etc."

Wow, just wow. So you do not think it is a proper role of government to protect the nations borders? Wow.

The underlying desire is there inherently. It’s not the role of government to meet the underlying desires of crony capitalists.

Not only is Walker FOR a CANADIAN wall, he is AGAINST a MEXICAN wall. Full retard. Full stop.
