On Wednesday, Donald Trump finally came out of the closet: yes, he admitted, he's no conservative, but conservatives are the problem with the country anyway. Here's his tweet:
Trump is half-right - the Republican Party has promised, over and over again, that it would implement conservative policies. Then they reneged, disappointing their conservative base over and over. That's one reason the two leading candidates for the Republican nomination are Trump and Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), both hated by the establishment but supported by grassroots conservatives.

What does this have to do with the Cruz team?
So give up on conservatism and join the liberal Trump.
Like when he adored Carter and HATED Reagan:

Anyone even heard the name Mia Love lately? Joni Ernst was another disappointment.
You left out the part where they credited Glenn Beck with their decision, and they all predicted that Trump would win.
Everyone knows that Boehner, Ryan, McConnel, and all those other ‘conservative pukes’ ran as CONSERVATIVES.
The point is that a politician calling him/her self a conservative means absolutely nothing anymore.
It’s like Obama calling himself a Christian. And so did Jim Jones....
Neither party runs it, K-Street runs it. Show me any legislation that was written by a Senator or Congressman, or even read by one of them before or after voting for it.
If you did your interpretation skills are D-.
Trump is the one who is campaigning on making deals with the Democrats. Trump is the one who holds Cruz in contempt for staying in opposition to the RINOS and the Democrats. Trump is not a conservative. He’s a megalomaniac.
Mike would have been formidable.
Trump funded liberals. How helpful was that? It’s the hypocrisy now that’s showing and of no interest to his cult.
After reading a thread yesterday, I realized that I’m not, and probably never was, a Conservative. I’m a Nationalist.
Did you listen to the start of Rush’s program today? He started out teasing with this over and over and calling it curious.
I’m an avid Rush listener but he’s been complaining for years up until well almost today on how we have been voting in so called conservatives and reps and how they have done nothing for US and pretty much given obama every damn thing he’s wanted including the last budget.
I’ll still listen to him but this sneaky anti-Trump monologue made we want to puke and smack him upside the head as Trump is just saying what Rush has been saying all along!
And the supreme court has said it is ok for them to lie.
"What’s your plan for Obamacare?" Pelley asked Trump. "Obamacare’s going to be repealed and replaced," said Trump. "Obamacare is a disaster if you look at what’s going on with premiums where they’re up 40, 50, 55 percent." Pelley followed up:
Pelley: How do you fix it?
Trump: There’s many different ways, by the way. Everybody’s got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say because a lot of times they say, "No, no, the lower 25 percent that can’t afford private. But–"
Pelley: Universal health care.
Trump: I am going to take care of everybody. I don’t care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody’s going to be taken care of much better than they’re taken care of now.
Pelley: The uninsured person is going to be taken care of. How? How?
Trump: They’re going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. And, you know what, if this is probably—
Pelley: Make a deal? Who pays for it?
Trump: —the government’s gonna pay for it. But we’re going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it’s going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.
Repeat for Emphasis.....
Trump is a fraud. He betrays everything. He’s only in this for his own vainglory.
But that’s where the negotiations come in. Trump would never cram something down our throats without allowing us to see it and negotiate it through our representatives.
I hope so.
See post 115 for TrumpCare.
He’s making more promises about it than Obama did about ObamaCare. But you say Trump will be open, honest and above board. Not like we’ll have to pass it to find our what’s in it.
We can only hope.
Trump is right. I’ve voted for a number of “conservatives” who’ve said one thing to get my vote, and then screwed me (all of us) once they got to DC.
I don’t want to play Charlie Brown to the uniparty’s Lucy anymore.
Trump is not wrong. If you can’t see it, then you’re part of the GOPe.
What the hell good is health care if you got no Country, borders, economy, jobs etc and socialists/communists like hill & bern in office next year worrying more about illegals and muzzies than Americans who will have to pay the bills for our own destruction!
Go Trump go as America has no time for the little things in life right now!-)
PS and what can Trump come up with that would be Worse than what we have now!
