Listening to him now, or last year? Last month? Last week? His positions are a bit of a moving target, so I want to make sure I’m talking about the “right” Trump.

Read his book of four years ago. Same positions, he pretty well lays out his thinking and his plans.
It’s right there in front of people is they bother to looks and do some research.

He has been consistent about his positions since entering the race. Your last month or last week comments alone leave you woefully out of touch with reality.

When a private citizen makes comments, it’s not the same as drafting your platform and running with it.

Take abortion as an example of his morphing over time. He was uncomfortable with it all along. He accepted a woman’s right to choose. On partial birth, he didn’t approve of that at all. In 2011, he came to a moment when he could not longer accept that abortion was okay depending on what a woman wanted to do.

He has been steadfast against abortion since then.

I’d suspect there are a lot of Conservatives who went through a similar process on abortion.

I did. You could say the same thing to me. “Okay, do I take you word for it now, or your word for it 25 years ago? Which is it?

Trump had to sit down and define his true beliefs. When he did so, he came down a lot farther Right than folks expected him to. And now folks are upset that is true.

In many instances they simply refuse to believe him.

Very strange...
