While I appreciate Trump’s efforts to craft these policies and put them out there, it is disconcerting to watch folks ignore them to trash him.

His Second Amendment Policy might just as well not have been released for all the good it does him on F.R. Almost daily I read folks state his 2nd Amendment stance is very Leftist in nature.

It probably won’t be long before I read how bad he is on military matters too.

I like what the guy is pushing in public. It’s the same things Reagan pushed. Who knew?

I agree with you. It’s certainly a fact that FR has it’s fair share of blustering factually challenged posters.

Way to go DO! We are rife with idiots here too. People who write stuff without really knowing if it’s true just because they still don’t get what Trump is really about and where he’s going. They still think that we should elect ¿Yeb? because, after all, “it’s his turn!” They still want some GoPee “organ grinder’s monkey” for president. It’s why the country is in the mess that it is today. The Left is surely a major problem, but “the Right” clearly has serious problems as well.

Yes, and by way of circumstantial proof, look what Freeper Isara is pushing as the Donalds stand on Health Care & Entitlements.

And do you think Trumps position paper on the VA is going to move the needle?

I have never been bashful about "bashing" candidates whom I do not favor. I started this cycle fully expecting to trash Trump.

I do find, however, that on one issue after another, he is convincing me that he is the real thing. I wanted Scott Walker because I very much admire how he has manhandled the left in Wisconsin. Unfortunately, his candidacy was not to be successful.

I now want Ted Cruz. Nonetheless, while I originally would not have voted for Trump even if he were nominated, I have paid attention to his campaign. He is a gifted campaigner and communicator. He is bringing back the "Reagan Democrats" (an incredibly important issue to me). He has established credibility on immigration, an issue on which I am a convert. He is right. I had been wrong. His position paper on the RTKBA arms satisfied me. My impression is that he will resist these infernal "trade" deals that are impoverishing American workers and our nation. I trust him to rebuild the military and particularly the Navy. I trust that he really means to "Make America Great Again."

My remaining doubts are on Right to Life, resistance to perversion posing as "marriage," and similar issues that have always been of great importance to me.

I shall continue to pay respectful attention to him and his campaign. If you are familiar with my posting history, you know I am a quite stubborn fellow on such trash as Willard, McCain, Dole, Bush the Elder,Ford, Nixon and many others.

If Trump turns out to be a phony (which I do not expect him to be), this nation may well be over. I would also bet you that I am not the only hardliner here who is at least tempted by Trump. I believe that you have always been a hardliner as well. Treat us skeptics respectfully if you want our support for Trump and you and he may well get that support. Keep us fully informed and be honest with us if he blunders. We understand that no one since Our Savior has been perfect.

If people are unfair to Trump, I will join you in going after them. JimRob seems supportive of him and that counts for a lot. Many of those who are usually my allies here have gone over to Trump before me and I have not joined them yet but I am prepared to defend him against unjust attacks. I do wish that he had avoided the ungallant attack on Megan Kelly. No one is perfect. Neither is she.

Continue to be the good person and solid conservative that you have always been here (in my experience). Many more than you may suspect will pay attention to your opinions. You have earned that right.

May God bless you and yours!

You know the truth, so just ignore them, like I do.
