“I doubt the level of fraud in Medicare is 50%.”

I said “waste, fraud, and abuse,” not fraud alone, and I’ll bet those three things account for over 50%.

“I’m not suggesting he’s engaging in cynical flip flopping, or flip flopping for political gain. I fear he doesn’t know these things, and that his lack of knowledge is no impediment to his mouth.”

I find that refreshing. He is not reading carefully focus-grouped political brain barf off a teleprompter. He is speaking to us, and that is something no politician scumbag has done for donkey’s years.

I agree: I don’t think he had seen the figures on Medicare. However, when somebody takes him aside and gives him the facts, there is a chance he will come down on the right side of it. He has in past cases. None of his opponents will do *anything* that actually should be done.

“Whether his about faces are politically motivated or sincere correction of the record/his opinions is irrelevant.”

I strongly disagree. In the one instance he is dishonest, in the other honest, and further growth can be expected. That is what I am betting on, and hoping for.

“but it’s a terrible weakness for the office of President.”

Again, I strongly disagree. The terrible weakness among these candidates is being members of our depraved, despicable, criminal political class. All the other candidates—all of them—are loathsome, despicable, backstabbing, immoral filth.

“Solutions for serious problems should be defensible on the facts, and not subject to finding out “fine is not so fine after all” in a matter of days.”

Hey, this is probably the first time in his life he has heard anyone other than the left wing of our political class talk about issues, and he probably only listened to them with half his attention. He’ll be up to speed before the inauguration.

“I know he’s going to have the finest and best advisors around, time to pick some economic advisors, sit down, listen and do his homework.”

That’s right, and since that’s the only chance our republic has to survive, let’s pray that he is elected and does just as you say.

We’ll have to disagree on some of these things. I’d prefer you be right. I don’t want Hillary and don’t want a failed Republican Presidency.
