33. Refuse to call Iran’s leader by his preferred title. “I guarantee you I will be never calling him the Supreme Leader... I’ll say, ‘Hey baby, how ya doing?’ I will never call him the Supreme Leader.”

Now I know why they had to make a new limo for the President.

Why hasn’t the VA been cleaned up? DOJ, Federal Unions, threats to whistleblowers, I can see him doing some of this because they all work for him, right...

but didn’t loretta lynch say the changes would be permanent? Aren’t they just directives?

I remember my parents telling me no one believed the US would walk on the moon.

If it were up to some of the small minded people on this thread, I don’t think we would have made it.

Ok you’re right Obama and Trump are both dictators. Exactly. Just like Hitler, Mussolini, Saddam,etc. Practically twins.

So, you point out that Trump is more than willing to bring up and use the Constitution AGAINST people, when it suits HIS purpose?

You think that "people" have an automatic right to citizenhip, even if they are illegal -- which was the topic of discussion here? You think the illegal immigration issue is just a personal whim for his convenience and not about the nation?

If you're in favor of illegal immigration, you're in the wrong place.

Hell No, I’m not ok will illegal immigration.

But again, I will point out that Trump hasn’t spoken about how he will USE the Constitution to fix it. Oh sure, he can say what the Constitution says, but he never talks about the process that will need to be used to fix it, in terms of what role he’ll play. Like the other canidates, say they’ll go to congress and they’ll make a case and they’ll use the different constitutional avenues, etc etc. All I hear Trump say is, I’ll do this and I’ll do that and I’ve got the best guys who can do the best things.

So, unless his best guys are part of our Constitutional government, he’s out of bounds....and once again, can’t be trusted.

Trump reminds me of Putin. Putin doesn't make as many dumb faces and Trump keeps his shirt on so they aren't exactly t the same.

You’re right. Trump doesn’t understand that the Constitution ‘limits’ Government...nor does he grasp laws which will prevent him from dictating what he wants to do.

Just like he paraded the Iowa football team across the stage without checking beforehand, that it’s against the rules of the school and those that officiate over these teams to publicaly endorse a political candidate....now they have concerns the team and school will be penalized...and very well could be.

He just comes up with these deals he wants to do, determines if the ‘costs’ of that risk are worth breaking the laws ..it doesn’t matter to him what the laws are , they are simply something he works around with attorneys and suites.......he will do the same in Washington...... just as Obama has done.

Trouble is nobody really knows what he will actually do...or not... if he gets there. There’s no measure to guage him other then his so called good intentions he relates to the audience.

I can tell you that I am one year older that Trump. When I look back on the opinions I held earlier in life, I know that I have changed a lot over the years. I firmly believe that this has also happened with DT.

While Ted Cruz is a good man, he just does not resonate with the public the way Donald Trump does. When I look at Cruz' website vs. Trump's I actually see more specifics in Trump's.

When I look at job creation, I see many more jobs on Trump's side.

I see grave danger ahead. The next President will choose several Supremes. I would probably like Cruz' choices better than Trump's, but Trump's will not be the disaster any Dem's will be. If we have RAT the 2A as we know it will cease to exist forever. I really believe DT can push nation reciprocity through just based on the number of Rs he will bring into office with him.

Hillary is self-destructing right before our eyes, and Trump can run rings around her on the campaign trail. His personal wealth lets him make decisions in an instant and act on them while anyone else will not be able to do that.

I will go for electability over purity.

I don’t see Cruz as pure...at best he’s new snow with pee tracks in it. His wife’s associations are also very troublesome.

You got me bro.

The definition of Conservative has been altered to squeeze this guy in because his followers want a win.

I agree with you but he thinks it’s his job.

That in an of itself is a concern.

I saw saying Merry Christmas again as an item.

If there were a ranking of "Dumbest Trump Promises" there's No. 1, right there.

His tax plan and increased ethanol subsidies will finish off the country. On a best case scenario, we continue growing government more rapidly than Obama. Will he throw in a casino bailout too? They’re “too big to fail” don’t cha know.
