I was told yesterday that Trump is a liberal Democrat.
My reply:
Build the wall.
Enforce the law.
Deport them all.
End sanctuary cities.
End anchor babies.
Slap a moratorium on muslim immigration.
Cut the taxes.
Cut the spending.
Cut the regulations.
Cut the government.
Cut the debt.
Cut the EPA.
Repeal ObamaCare.
Get the feds out and allow health insurance to be sold over state lines.
Send education back to states.
Get a handle on trade.
Make trade deals in our own best interests.
Bring back capital.
Bring back manufacturing.
Bring back jobs.
Strengthen the economy.
Defend the second amendment.
Defend religious freedom.
Appoint constitutional conservative judges.
Rebuild our military.
Bomb the shit out of ISIS (and take their oil).
End political correctness.
Take the GOP head-on.
Take the media head-on.
Take the liberals head-on.
And win, baby, win.
All of the above on a shoestring budget compared to most of the 16 competitors he’s defeated (after they spent 100's of millions of donor bucks).
No PACs.
No big donors.
No party support.
What’s democrat about any of the above?
What’s not conservative?
What’s not to like?
And I’ll add a few more:
Redo the horrid Iran deal.
Take a serious look at NATO.
Require our allies to pay more for their defense.
Rebuild the Reagan Coalition and attract blue collar workers by making America first again on manufacturing, trade, secure borders, economy and jobs, jobs, jobs!
Make America Great Again!
I guess will disagree...
The congress critter in the 80's is vastly different than today...
Back then most were not actually anti-american bought and paid for by the corporations...
Of course they could be influenced, but not like today..
Congressman doesn't fear Trump like you think, they know his price for his support will be way higher if he wins...
Remember, Trump is not an ideologue, he's a deal maker...
His price will be steep... the status quo just got more expensive...
Please explain to me what part of promoting his wife’s CFR North American Union Agenda is showing respect for the Constitution?
I would be interested to see your contortions to match the garbage marketing strategy he is yanking you around with.
Nailed it!! Those trying to give Trump a liberal label are completely out of touch with reality.
Trump goes for action and his actions are conservative plus!!
ROTFL, not at you but at an article written by realclearpolitics before they went DT. It is about his switching parties like wives...
THIS is the only thing that makes perfect sense...
“Judging by his petulance on the 2016 campaign trail, the easiest explanation is that Trump broke with the Democrats because he was peeved at the titular head of the Democratic Party. His pattern of donations changed markedly during Barack Obama’s second term as president. This change actually began a year earlier and it coincides with the 2011 White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. Trump was a guest, and listened as the president made fun of Trump’s hair, his supposedly garish architectural taste, and his fixation with Obama’s birth certificate.
“The Donald kept up a tight smile as this roasting went on, but his expression froze in pique when the entertainer who followed Obama kept piling on. “Donald Trump often talks about running as a Republican, which is surprising,” said comedian Seth Meyers. “I just assumed he was running as a joke.””
Wow. Just wow.
The sad thing is you discount every liberal policy and belief the man says, in order to project your desired candidate’s qualities on the man.
In reality, Trump is about one thing, and one thing only: Trump. Not America, not conservative principles, heck, not even liberal ones. He is only for himself.
It is why he plasters his name all over everything. It’s why his decorating tastes have more in common with Saddam Hussein than the average American. (Seriously, the man gold plates everything)
I implore you, take a step back and critically look at him. Look at what he says.
Maybe he is socially conservative? Nope. Was for partial birth abortion and to this day is for homosexual marriage. His judgement is so lacking on this, when presented with a new question on it, he even said he thought women should be punished for engaging in abortion, then proceeded to spend the next 3 days jumping all over the place in what he believes, or should I say what he believes you want him to believe.
Maybe he is fiscally conservative? Nope. He has proposed crazy garbage like one time taxes on just the wealthy, and even his tax plan today is still a progressive tax plan in that it still has brackets. They may be smaller amounts, but he does not believe in equality. He believes in punishing those that make more because they can afford it.
Maybe he is a states rights guy? Nope. During this campaign he has taken the position that the federal government handles the land under the BLS better than the states themselves do. He obviously had never even thought of the subject, but his default position was one of a strong federal government.
Maybe he is conservative from a private property rights perspective? Nope. He still feels the government was right to use eminent domain to take land from one private citizen to give to another private citizen.
Maybe he is conservative about healthcare? Nope. He has advocated single payer healthcare in the past, still advocates for universal healthcare (funded by the government) today, and even views it and education as 2 of the 3 most important functions of government.
There is nothing conservative about Donald J. Trump, you are projecting your wants and desires on a blank slate whom is no better than Barrack Obama.
Look carefully about who you are supporting and lending your name to, you likely will regret it if you are not careful.
Awesome Jim ! Dismantaling the things that have eroded America, since the first Bush was in office. Refuting 30 years of big govt liberalism.
So you admit Cruz cannot change anything. That’s a start. As far as Trump working with congress Of course he can get things done - They want things too - the difference is the people will have a free agent in their corner this time. Nonetheless, thanks to decades of the Globalists elevating the executive branch to Royalty status the power is already there to leverage the other 2 branches to comply.
But, lets assume for argument sake your point is valid. Its not of course, but hypothetically. GRIDLOCK IS GOOD! The more they fight each other the less they focus on screwing us.
Win vs Win. I can live with that....
Vote Trump!
Motivation. Motivation.
Nice
"A new North American community should rely more on the market and less on bureaucracy, more on pragmatic solutions to shared problems than on grand schemes of confederation or union, such as those in Europe. We must maintain respect for each other’s national sovereignty.”
If anything, it negates the idea of the union. You can argue whether open trade among the nations mentioned is possible, but there's no huge conspiracy undermining the Constitution there.
ping to da man :)
Cruz is the GOPe point man for #NeverTrump so winning over a lot of the Cruzers will not be possible. But the good news is Trump will not need all the Cruzers to win. A lot of pissed off blue collar Ds will vote Trump too.
So you are a Globalist. I’m an American. There is no middle ground on this issue. But thanks for exposing you support the destruction of American Sovereignty and our Constitution.
Got to admit, I’m literally slackjawed. This site was founded to fight Donald Trump when his name was “Bill Clinton.” And now, with an actual aggressive constitutional conservative in the race, the sort of candidate we were all crying and begging for (Ted Cruz), this?
And so many former freedom fighters agreeing?
I couldn’t explain it to save my life.
The difference between a Trump and Cruz POTUs is real simply: Cruz knows the ins and out of all the legislators tricks and language to say something and mean something different...
I can see Cruz wearing out his veto pen...Trump will cut a deal with libtards, GOPe, anybody who will sing his praises...
Since Cruz is the second most hated man running for office by the GOPe, he will also cause gridlock, but he will know how to bust through it and not be on a huge learning curve like Trump...
I can only imagine how many noob mistakes Trump will make thinking Congress is working with him but are actually working against him because he doesn't understand how it works...
Face it, he wasn't interested how delegates are chosen by states, basically blew off the rules, what make you think he will try and understand how Congress works...?
Bob Beamon is impressed with that leap you just made.
I couldn’t explain it to save my life.

LOL
Well somethings in life we just may not be destined to do.
Your position is a Special interest owned DC Insider Ivy League lawyer of the Bush Clan can do what a Free agent from outside cannot do. Reality is Cruz cannot change anything obviously, hes owned lock stock and Barrel by the GOPes special interest Masters and never left their employ.
