“TV “conservatives” had their chance - for years that included full control of all branches. It’s time for something new.”

When was that?

“People want a proven disrupter - a shock to the system.”

Ok. Fine with that, fine with Trump.

What gets me is that I’m supposed to fork out all conservative
principals and join the false group think that conservatism has
been tried and failed? Now I have to be all up the the moderate worship tree or get
attacked and ridiculed for having legitimate concerns about Trump.

Other than you, the best response I get is sore loser and
your wrong because you get your and you’re mixed up. Is that
what passes for moderate debate? How easy is it going to be
for those in this particular group thing to throw out being
moderate for socialist or fascist.

Why did everyone just give up?

“your” and “you’re”?

Really that’s it? That’s what passes for moderate debate?
Tell me when you were a conservative, if you ever were,
what did you think of people who thought you were crazy
for having those principals?

All this is so far over your head it hurts. You want Trump
for president, great, I’m all for it. I’ll be right there voting for
him right along with you. But don’t set there and tell me
not to voice my concerns about him and don’t expect me to
abandon that and my principals for a fad. This is a conservative
forum, my critic of Trump is from a conservative perspective. We are abandoning the grounds that FreeRepublic is based on in the same fashion we have
been abandoning the principals of our constitution,
compromise. Sorry I’ll vote for Trump but that’s about as
far as I’m willing to go.

I remember when nobody even knew what a metal detector was! You walked out to the plane, up the ladder, and to your seat. It was lovely!

Apparently you need to look up "subtle demonstration," too.

When are people like you going to get it through your heads WE LOSE politically for the same reason democrats lose militarily. You want to treat this as if it's something other than war.

That's why so many Cruzlims think their guy would make a great president; they have learned NOTHING about the changes in politics since Reagan. Anyone who thinks Senator Cruz's success in the courtroom translates into ANY political prowess isn't smart enough to deserve an "opinion."

We are, and have been, in uncharted territory. Electing a guy that excels in following maps, so much so that he can't get anyone else in his party to go along with him, is NOT what we need.

Your version of "conservative" is just like being "pro-life." You think as long as you keep protesting, no matter how ineffectual, you don't have to admit YOU LOST. Well, many of us are not content with ineffectual protesters telling the rest of us what it means to be pro-life OR conservative.

=====

No one's saying conservative principles have been tried and failed. I'm saying any time -- ANY TIME -- "conservatives" in the White House or Congress or the Supreme Court repeatedly disappoint, especially on "put up or shut up" moments like Obamacare, massive spending bills and bailouts. Supreme Court accepted it, and Republicans, beyond posturing, have achieved little or nothing to reverse it. Done with talkers. We want doers.

“I don’t know anyone who is constantly on the lookout for terror and terrorism. Do you?”

At my age I can’t maintain 24-hour focus, but I’ll be drawn and quartered before I go to the mall unarmed.

The odds of my being embroiled in a terrorist attack are unknown, but seem slim. However, it is absolutely certain that there will be another terrorist attack within our borders in the near future.

It is incumbent on all Americans to have their heads on a swivel. Only armed citizens can react adequately to most terrorist attacks.

Maybe you could start small. Read the inside flap. Or get somebody to read it to you.
