Despite your nonsensical reply, I’m guessing you didn’t know this stuff about Trump before today and now you’re conflicted. However, you have such an emotional investment in him that you’re conflicted. That’s why, in your own words, you don’t care about any statements he’s made,issues or politicians he’s backed in the past when he had nothing on the line. You just want what he says now when he’s competing for your vote. I know. That emotional investment is difficult to part with so time is what’s called for here.

I’ll admit, when he first announced and brought the illegal immigration issue up, I was intrigued. And the fact that he blew all pretense of any political correctness away and still defied the pundits was refreshing. But he had no legislative record and my healthy skepticism kicked in and, when I explored, I became troubled. And when you bring this up to the Trumpamaniacs, I’ve seen a lot of” you just don’t see” and “ well you gave to understand...”

He’s a great businessman. And I understand to a point the need to donate to certain politicians we find distasteful. But that doesn’t mean he needed to praise him and then we are left guessing what his true beliefs are.

There you go again. How do you find time to consider opposing arguments with all the presuming you do?

Oh, silly me. You obviously don't....

However, you have such an emotional investment in him that you’re conflicted.

Pot...kettle.

The difference is you're trying to "save face" by justifying your antipathy with all manner of vapid "No, the glass IS half EMPTY" contrivances.

Further, you admitted it.

I, on the other hand, immediately recognized the significance and value of a candidate espousing acceptably conservative policies, who more importantly, understood from the outset his need to aggressively dominate the media in order to have any hope of accomplishing even his most modest CONSERVATIVE goals.

What I find most curious about you GOPe types is you never get around to credibly answering the question "Why is Trump waging war against the liberal media if he is a liberal, himself?"
