Correcting my last sentence above...
No, Trump is NO conservative......
2 Points
No waterboarding was still being done years prior to Bambi signing that EO.
Stoping it was NOT and “unlawful order”.
Is that meant as an insult or a compliment?
The correct answer to that is 'yes!'
Someone who is confident in his negotiation ability is NOT a tyrant. President have the veto powers you know. Its part of the Constitution and within his power to use it. You guys going to start calling him a dictator every time he use his veto power?
I want a conservative first and foremost! That is what this country needs. We promote conservatives here not businessmen.
Trum has got it right. As head of the armed forces, this is what we need in our Commander in Chief. He says “jump” and they say “how high?”
The President doesn’t order the Speaker of the House around.
oh yeah? Got news for you, the former Speaker Boehner was and the present Speaker Ryan is, ORDERED AROUND BY OBAMA. They’ve given Obama everything he wanted and then some.
I seem to remember that one of the frustrations General of the Army (5 star) Dwight Eisenhower expressed upon being elected president was that while a General he could give an order and whole armies would move but as President he could give an order and nothing would happen.
I agree.
I’m a Cruzer but have said I’ll hold my nose and probably vomit in the parking lot if I have to vote for Trump in the Primary but I live in Texas and Trump’s negatives are really high here. I can actually seeing Hildabeast taking Texas.
Hillary has so many scandals and should be as easy to beat as Mondale but women have feelings and act with emotion. I can see many republican women not voting for Trump if he turns his vile self on Hillary.
Granted when Trump said Carly was ugly she dropped like lead in water so who knows?
All I know is his negatives are off the chart.
“One of them was the one you mentioned saying if he tells the generals something, they’ll do it. My thought was “what if you tell them you’re not leaving office after eight years?””
Your thought was childish fantasy.
“The military have a long history of following orders unless the orders are illegal”
You’d be wrong about that.
and yet they do, very often.
Thank goodness no innocent Civilians (Men, Women and Children) were killed when we Firebombed Dresden and Tokyo before we Nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Complement
Anyone remember Reagan Bombing Ghadfi’s (sic) home in Libya, killing his young Daughter?
Just asking.
One of them was the one you mentioned saying if he tells the generals something, they'll do it. My thought was "what if you tell them you’re not leaving office after eight years?"
Oooooh scary! Ridiculous. Somehow I don't think that Donald Trump is going to create a Constitutional crisis based on the 22nd Amendment! Generals who aren't traitors obey their commander in chief; those that don't eventually get "relieved of duty", to say the least.
The other was saying if Paul Ryan didn’t get along with him Ryan would have to pay a big price.
Ooooh, so scary again! That was an entirely appropriate "shot across the bow" from Donald Trump. I don't think he was threatening to break Speaker Ryan's legs. Do you?
Either you're being totally disingenuous, or "Hand-wringers Anonymous" has got a new potential member...
Listen to the interview with Miller on Breitbart.
Covers Trade...chilling.

So now you say that Trump will be commanding our soldiers to murder innocent children?
Where did you hear Trump say that he was going to do that?
OR, are you in fact, putting words in his mouth and feigning policies that he has not indicated he would set...
Soldiers obey lawful orders or they are court martialed. Trump is not advocating murder of innocents.
Period.
