Convince me I wrong.

You are 100% correct.

That is how you feel.

“In the past few days, Trump has been asked variously whether, if elected, he would use his power to close mosques; whether he believes that Muslims should be registered in a special government database”

One religion in the world is responsible for approximately 99.999% of terrorism, murder, mayhem, and strife. No one has the right to immigrate here. Of course we have the right to reject the entry of persons who come here who could be dangerous. If they cannot prove that they are peaceful they should be barred from entry. The onus should be on them.

If they are admitted to enter, it only makes sense that they should be monitored in case their jihadi alter ego emerges. If they don’t like it, give them a one-way ticket back to Krapistan.

I’m a lot more concerned with the safety of American lives and the peace and security of our country than I am over whether CAIR and the muslim brotherhood get their feelings hurt.

What tripe. Ask Trump if he’d be willing to reconsider his position on illegal immigration, the border, TPP trade deal, bringing jobs back to America, making the military stronger, taking care of vets, etc., and watch how fast he says, “NO!”

How’s that Scott Walker campaign going?

I wouldn’t vote for him for dog catcher with supporters like you.

Trump can beat anyone the dems put up. Right now he is beating everyone the GOPe has put up. The Dems hate him, the media hates him and the GOPe hates him.

Obviously he is the perfect anti-establishment candidate.

Donald Trump Can't Say 'No' - Is That What We Want in a President?

Google it: "Trump says no"

Charles C. W. Cooke.

I’m sorry, but he is a RINO/GOPe/Chamber Of Commerce enabler.

This “branch” of the Republican party is diametrically opposed to what I want in government, and, in my opinion, is exactly what is wrong with our party.

So, opinion pieces written by Cooke have the opposite reaction to me. Makes me want to support Trump MORE.

No thanks.

Sharles C. W. Cooke [what's with the snobbish 2 middle initials? Two good for the rest of us peasants, Chuck, you foppish Brit?] wrote:

How, one wonders, does a chronic inability to say "no" fit into that mien?

Because Trump has dealt with scumbag media types like yourself many, many times, Chuck?

Also Trump is a Scot, and we're still a wee bit miffed about that stuff you bloody-handed Brits did after Culloden to the helpless women and children in the Highlands. Did I mention that Trump has Highlander roots [his mother was born on the Isle of Lewis]?

FURTHERMORE - what's with the "e" at the end of your name "Cook", Chuck? Is that to let us Merkuns know that you were born in Cambridge, and went to Oxford? Affectations like that have always bothered us peasantry, thouhg you are to be commended for using the word "mien" correctly in your screed. It's a friendless word, and nobody uses it much these days. Huzzah for you, Chuck!

Well, we know he can’t say ‘no’ when it comes to giving campaign money to Democrats.

He says it’s just for business. The rest of us know that means what passes for Democrat Don’s principles are for sale.

That is what conservatives are fighting against.

>>Convince me I wrong.

As you point out, they are your FEELINGS. Continue to wallow in them or rise above feelings and think about what America needs in a LEADER.

What a ridiculous hit piece. From the first debate, the GOP has been gunning for him because they can’t control him. Even Cruz is owned when he voted for TPA and the Corker bill.

Don’t see it your way. It is your opinion and you are entitled to it but I disagree.

This is just another Trump hit piece and if you want to find him wrong you can easily just as anyone can with anyone.

The whole affair of registering muzzies was trumped up. False. If you can’t listen to the exchange as it was recorded and see that you will not be convinced by any argument I can offer to you. It is recorded word-for-word and posted on the internet like just about everything is.

Some things you keep open and some things you draw a hard line on. Not everything is worth going to the mat for and not everything is worth discussion or confrontation. There is a time for everything.

As far as registering muzzies, what is the problem with that? I don’t see any problem at all. Nor do I see a problem with screening mosques. It is well known that many of them are focus points for terrorist planning. Convince me I’m wrong.

PS: I think he has come out very clearly on many many points. One that he can’t be much more clear on: “I will bomb the Sh_t out of ISIS.”

That sounds like a pretty clear NO to terrorism to me.

Donald J. Trump 39 minutes ago

A woman who got fired after two days of working with Scott Walker - a wacko - now trying to raise funds to fight me.

Could that be you? How much do they pay?
