Will the real Donald Trump please stand up?

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

The fervor around Trump reminds me of that of Rick Perry in the 2012 election cycle. Rick Perry was the hot commodity with conservatives prior to the debates beginning and then once questioned about illegal immigration during the first primary debate and he stuck to guns about supporting the Dream Act and immigration reform he got booed and sunk like a rock in the polls over night. The same thing is going to happen with Trump once the other candidates start seizing on all of his past support of issues shunned by conservatives.

Which side is Donald Trump on?

Trump once endorsed a massive surtax on the rich. But he now wants the top income tax rate cut in half.

He opposed the war in Iraq, but says he now has a “foolproof” plan to defeat ISIL.

He’s praised single-payer health care, yet loathes Obamacare. But a decade ago he proposed “health marts” that sound suspiciously like today’s Obamacare exchanges.

Over the past two decades he was a Republican, then an independent, then a Democrat, then a Republican. Now, registered as an independent, he leads the Republican 2016 presidential field.

But what does Donald Trump really believe on policy? It’s hard to tell — his campaign will identify no policy director, he has no “issues” tab on his campaign website and he hasn’t given any substantive policy speeches on the campaign trail.

“His hair has been more permanent than his political positions,” said Thomas P. Miller, a health care policy expert at the conservative American Enterprise Institute. “It’s a total random assortment of whatever plays publicly.”

Wishful thinking.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

So far, he hasn't apologized for anything, nor should he, and he strikes back at anyone who hits him.

I hope so...Trump's principles are about as reliable as monogamy in a ghey marriage...

That is NOT a valid reason to vote for him...

Sure, its nice to see someone in national politics stand up to the media and the left....but there is more to running a country than just standing up to the loud-mouths...

Oh I know and that's not an endorsement of him but its better than the other 16 candidates who cower in fear and constantly apologize for meaningless rhetoric that the media says is controversial. And to your point, no we haven't heard on how be would run the country.

Actually, you have. You simply have to sift through his history to know how he would behave in office.

If he gets the nomination, voting Hillary or Trump will be a distinction without a difference.

Not at all and you are comparing him to Perry. WRONG reflection totally. Reagan WAS a democrat and he changed. Don't look to Perry or Bush to compare, look to Reagan.

There's gonna be so much material for the Democrat opposition research teams to gather that they might not have the computer capacity to hold it all.

Personal stuff, business stuff, political stuff, holy crap.

No one knows for sure. But, he sure is earning a lot of points with folks that are tired of "politics as usual", and I'm one of them.

 

[ABikerSailor]

I'm looking forward to the debates, because Donald the Chump doesn't really know anything about policy.

He's gonna be shredded................

He doesn't have to know anything. All he has to do is talk the American language that folks like me want to hear. We're tired of "politics as usual". We want someone that knows the problems and has plans to correct them. We're not interested in "political speak", we've had enough of that BS.

 

[Vigilante]

Perry's problem is that during the debate he wanted to name 3 agencies he wanted to eliminate, and could only name TWO, and was ridiculed by the press, RINO'S and RELIGION HATERS as being STUPID! THAT was his failure! Wish some people would get their history straight!

What's there to know? You have a Chimp in the White House that keeps making RED LINES, and leaving American hostages when negotiating now with Iran.... THAT'S a policy!

Yes. He is attracting all of the really smart Americans. They would never elect a politician to the presidency.
