I agree with part of your message here. Like you, I believe Trumps is the opposite of the GOPe. I still think you fail to understand one more obvious step, and it’s truly a very simple one.

With no offense intended, I offer you this.

Your enemies hate him.

Your enemies are silent on his main competitor.

1 + 1 = 2

...reasons to vote for Donald Trump.

Doyou think Planned Parenthood does wonderful things?

Its stuff like this when he gets psuhback pressure onhim.

Same with how he got pressure on the American worker/H1b issue and then said untrue things about there arent technical americans - untrue. I know a lot of them corecting the crap that comes from overseas. Lots of places have droped using foriegn coders because they have to pay people here to fix what came from India.

Also the whole thing about being a unifier. We dont want to unify with the left or the rinos. The whole point is to defeat them. They say unify but always mean defeat us.

He is a means to an end but he isn’t a conservative. Hes a populist.

Like the Mafia, the NWO doesn’t exist bump. The biggest story of the election. An opportunity to hand over cash in envelopes face to face with a stop Trump cover. Watch Apple start to get support in Congress for its “privacy” policy.

DEAR GOD!! I am much more pissed now. Thank you for that link. I realize this crap when I learned that Heidi Cruz was a member of the CFR. That in itself was a RED FLAG. They think they are smart and they can hide it but we are on to them. May each ROT IN HELL for the betrayal of this once great nation.

Trump said he will defund the abortion end of Planned Parenthood.

Do you focus on that? No

He says Planned Parenthood does good things for women?

Do you focus on that? Why of course

What will be left of Planned Parenthood when Trump gets the abortion end defended?

Do you focus on that? Of course not

This is a typical trail of thought when it comes to Trump.

Even some who support him adopt this mindset in part.

I don’t think they even realize it.

Be calm....it’s not unusual for people to be hired and infiltrate organizations that are significant in order to be on the inside and affect the outcomes of what they are doing let alone be aware of what they are doing from the inside in order to stop them or know ahead what they are up to.

Cruz has been fighting against the establishment...no surprise to me he would want to know first hand what these organizations are doing.

Money is the ultimate fungible. If you financially support ANY end of PP, you’re financially supporting abortions.

That’s the point.

Any Federal money for PP is federal money for abortion.

I don’t want “the abortion end” defunded. I want it all defunded.

What it appears like when he says all of this, is that you are left not being totally sure just exactly how he feels and what he’s actually going to do.

It isn’t like we haven’t felt this way about other politicians before. For example, Scott Walker on his immigration issue. Weve had a lot of flip floppers talked about here before. This is just what it makes Trump look like. He says one thing, down the line he says a contradictory thing, and you dont really know where he actually is on it anymore.

Its a concern we’ve expressed before on any number of people running for office.

Since all it does is provide abortions, exactly how much funding did you expect to remain?

We did agree on that right?

He says he will defund the abortion end of planned parenthood.

That is 100% of their business.

You guys won’t be satisfied until he makes a statement that kills any crossover vote he hopes to have.

Why is that?

It is exactly what you are asking for.

Be honest with yourself.

He has said all he is going to say on it for a reason.

You know what it is as well as I do.

Rush has been talking about this today on his radio show. Looks like they are going to do anything possible to deny Trump the nomination no matter what the voters want.

He also said Bill Kristol was the only media there. Also, related. . the fracking suit, (I think he said in Ohio) is not going well for the left and Facebook just shut down the Anti-Fracking page on Facebook.

Rush said Facebook, Google and social media are pushing themselves as 'the New Media'. . . so (my thought, Rush Didn't say this), Is it time to Boycott Facebook and Google? The impression was they are going to control the media, one way or another. . if it's not the Print media, Networks, Cable, then it's going to to be Facebook and Google. "We'll decide what they're brainwashed with."

Honestly when someone says bad stuff about something, and then later, good stuff, it makes me concerned they dont really think its that bad, and that they may not do what they said they’d do. They look like a opportunist rather than a really convicted person.

That is me being honest.
