Trump is as conservative on economic issue as Reagan was. Even more so if views on spending are taken into account.

I guess R. Reagan was no conservative then right?

On Social issues folks have a point.

#NeverTrump = Just Hillary, and the morons can’t see it. Must be coming out from under the guise of RINO.

Really. I was shocked and happy to read this because I liked him until he became antiTrump in such an ugly way. Maybe I can start respecting him again.

They are either blind or ignorant. Perhaps both

After Donald J. Trump finishes doing all the things he has promised: build the wall, deport illegals and Syrian invaders, cancel Obama’s unconstitutional executive orders, roll back twenty years of intrusive government regulations, prosecute Hillary and her crew, release the secret 28 pages from the 9/11 report, negotiate prescription drug purchases, repeal and replace Obamacare, simplify the Tax code, repatriate $2.5 trillion in off-shore profits, stop the IRS from abridging the free speech of Christian Churches, reform the libel laws to remove the “public figure” distinctions, defund Planned Parenthood until they stop doing abortions, cleaning up the mess that is the VA, cutting waste, fraud and abuse where ever it is found, canceling Common Core and returning control of education to the States, end the assault on the Second Amendment, audit the Federal Reserve System, investigate the harmful additives in Vaccines and the coverup of studies at the CDC, and destroy the culture of Political Correctness, then we can talk about all the “Conservative” issues that need to be addressed.

Sorry to say it, but Obama was worse - twice - and it didn’t get through some skulls. Hopefully luck really does come in threes...

Look at it this way; Eight years ago, when the dimocraps had the opportunity to choose between Hillary and Obama, they choose Obama... Think of that, Obama was their FIRST choice...

Obama has been, (in my opinion) far and away, the worse thing to happen to the United States since....forever!!!

Now, can you even BEGIN to imagine how bad Hillery would be if SHE was in the white hut!!!

The Obummer was bad, but Hillary??? Within four years China would own EVERYTHING including our jock-strap!!!!

MHO...(But not mine alone)

:(

That’s an interesting grab bag of initiatives. Some of the are obviously estimable, straightforward and common sense. Some are vague and ill-defined, but laudable like “cleaning up the mess with the VA” or “ cutting waste, fraud and abuse where ever it is found”.

Some appear to me to be pernicious, like “repatriate $2.5 trillion in off-shore profits” or “investigate the harmful additives in Vaccines and the coverup of studies at the CDC”. I don’t know how you can “repatriate” $2.5 trillion in “off-shore profits” without riding roughshod over property rights.

The very last thing we need is further politicization of the CDC. The CDC, it appears to me, has worked well for about a century. Most of its staff are, I am sure, apolitical in their approach to disease. Attempts to put pressure on the CDC to pursue the latest fads, seem to me to threaten its mission.

But that’s the problem with Trump. He is unprincipled, so he has no compass to guide him. He says things that are popular, and which he may actually believe. He has no principles to buffer him against popular passions, and his own fancies of the moment. Our *form* of government was designed to protect against passions of the moment. Laws should not shift based on an internet poll. Or the political preferences of a few Supreme Court justices or the president.

Either you are a Hillary Troll, or you are being willfully ignorant. For example :

I don’t know how you can “repatriate” $2.5 trillion in “off-shore profits” without riding roughshod over property rights.

The $2.5 Billion is off-shore because the current tax rate on bringing it back is 35% and the cost of borrowing money is close to zero. Donald Trump’s proposal is to offer a one time repatriation rate of 10% before going to a fixed 16% corporate income tax. Anyone who has actually been paying attention to what he has been saying would know this.

As for the “harmful additives” in vaccines, the damage done by vaccines and the current protocols, especially for the new-born, is well documented in the alternative media, i.e., the media that is not funded by the “conservative” commercial interests such as drug companies, etc.

All of the “conspiracy theories” of the past fifty years are now being revealed a true. Fluoride was added to the water system to dumb down the population. There is now a Harvard study that proves it, and the Nazi documents about their use of fluoride have been released. The ties between the NWO crowd and the Nazis is now well established. From Soros to the Bushes they are all seeking a master race.

If you think you can get a place in the 500,000,000 people who will be left alive after the NWO takes over, you might want to up you game a little.

I stated explicitly that Hillary is far worse than Trump. I yield to no one in my contempt and hatred of Hillary Clinton. Please do not accuse me of being a Hillary troll. That aside, let’s agree to respectfully disagree.

Trump DOES have a way of growing on you, I am VERY worried about him though he is a perfectionist for details ect. When he walks into this disastrous government it IS going to be something he has NEVER had to deal with, the WASTE, the FRAUD, employees that JUST DON’T GIVE A DAMN!!!! the unions WILL make it VERY difficult for him to CLEAN HOUSE however I have come to believe Trump DOESN’T give a damn about the media he WILL take it to the people, this BEAST has to be dealt with and Trump in my mind is the ONLY ONE who can possibly do it!!!!!

“my overriding principle is not to let libfascist monsters like Hillary win. “

This is the bottom line.

Yes and Donald Trump actually knows how to make these things happen. He is not like the “true conservatives” who only talk about doing something about it while voting to fund everything Obama wants.
