Donald Trump Launches Presidential Campaign, Says He's Pro-Life

Trump said that he wanted “universal health care,” until he went into politics.

[familyop]

The following is Trump’s opinion in his own words. Of course, that and all of his other communistic opinions evaporated, when he decided to run for the presidency.

We must have universal health care
I’m a conservative on most issues but a liberal on health. It is an unacceptable but accurate fact that the number of uninsured Americans has risen to 42 million. Working out detailed plans will take time. But the goal should be clear: Our people are our greatest asset. We must take care of our own. We must have universal healthcare.

Our objective [should be] to make reforms for the moment and, longer term, to find an equivalent of the single-payer plan that is affordable, well-administered, and provides freedom of choice. Possible? The good news is, yes. There is already a system in place-the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program-that can act as a guide for all healthcare reform. It operates through a centralized agency that offers considerable range of choice. While this is a government program, it is also very much market-based. It allows 620 private insurance companies to compete for this market. Once a year participants can choose from plans which vary in benefits and costs.

Freepers never learn. Marco Rubio, Walker etc, they tell lies to get elected. Can’t believe until now, Freepers are falling for these clowns.

[tumblindice]

That’s right. The election is light years away.
He’s on a roll. Let him go.

"Freepers never learn. Marco Rubio, Walker etc, they tell lies to get elected. Can’t believe until now, Freepers are falling for these clowns."

Agreed!

One of Wall Street's most political billionaires just passed on Scott Walker
Business Insider ^ | July 9, 2015 | Linette Lopez

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) met with billionaire hedge-fund manager Dan Loeb on Wednesday, Business Insider has learned.

Walker was seeking Loeb's key financial support ahead of his all-but-certain presidential campaign, but he didn't get it. According to sources close to the situation, the sticking point was Loeb's support of same-sex marriage.

Ted Cruz Is Guest of Two Gay Businessmen
New York Times ^ | APRIL 23, 2015 | MAGGIE HABERMAN

The dinner and “fireside chat” for about a dozen people with Mr. Cruz and his wife, Heidi, was at the Central Park South penthouse of Mati Weiderpass and Ian Reisner, longtime business partners who were once a couple and who have been pioneers in the gay hospitality industry.

Genius!

Walker is not slick enough to get all of that funding! Besides, he has a real and dangerous record of cutting funding to Republican state and local government employees (our rightful socialist overlords!). No other Republican candidate poses such a threat to the official, proper political class. And Scott Walker was born in Colorado Springs in the U.S.A., a certain strike against him as far as public school teachers, university instructors, regulators, police, social workers, lawyers and many other important political constituents are concerned! The nerve of that heterosexual, white, non-Hispanic Neanderthal male! Rafael Cruz, the competent and classy lawyer, would be many times better!

The nerve of that heterosexual, white, non-Hispanic Neanderthal male! Rafael Cruz, the competent and classy lawyer, would be many times better! You didn't tell the whole story. For a reason, I imagine.

When the word got out to the gay community that Wiederpass and Reisner were considering throwing their support to Cruz, all hell broke loose.

Their gay-friendly hotels suffered mass cancellations and Wiederpass and Reisner were forced to apologize and withdraw their promised support -- even though they favored Cruz' conservative agenda.

[familyop]

Alright, that was intended to be funny overstatement and irony. I'll be more sincere.

I distrust all of them, including Walker, much more than most. It is my belief that all politicians lie too much. But Walker does have a record of having cut government spending much in the face of some great odds. That's all that I trust: the record, and cutting big government spending is the most important issue to me.

Otherwise, the gigantic numbers of government-connected socialists will use their money and time to continue to dominate on both sides of politics and bring collapse with the remainder of the default process.

Obama signs emergency bill to halt teacher layoffs
yahoo ^
Posted on Tue Aug 10 17:38:51 2010
"The aid for the states is to be paid for mostly by closing a tax loophole used by multinational corporations and by reducing food stamp benefits for the poor...The legislation provides $10 billion to school districts to rehire laid-off teachers or to ensure that more teachers won't be let go before the new school year begins."

Mutually Assured Destruction [Tues. debacle confirms growing rift between Dems & teachers unions.]
American Spectator ^ | 11/5/10 | RiShawn Biddle
"Congressional Democrats angered centrist school reformers, MoveOn.org-style progressives, and other party activists in August when they voted to ladle $10 billion in federal subsidies (funded from future cuts to the Food Stamp program) to school districts in order to stave off layoffs of 160,000 teachers (or just 2.6 percent of the nation's 6.2 million school employees). In turn, the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers poured more than $40 million of their hefty campaign war chests (including more than $15 million by the NEA in the last weeks of the election season alone) to help the Democrats keep full control of Congress."

[LouAvul]

What’s his angle? I don’t get what he’s trying to do cause it doesn’t seem like he’s entertaining the notion of being prez. Maybe he’s using his star power to decry the state of the union?

[ansel12]

He already lied about Reagan, Romney did the same thing in an effort to cover his pro-abortion views, Romney called Reagan “adamantly” pro-choice.

Donald Trump is pro-abortion.

You don’t have to work so hard to be a hustler’s sucker, nor keep repeating things that you know aren’t true.

Trump is a con man and a liar, you have to actually learn his positions, not just pick up an impression that he tries to leave you with.

Trump is not pro-life, although he claims that he switched in 2011 to run for president as a republican, for the 2012 election.

Do you believe that at age 65, as he was preparing his run for the presidency as a republican in the 2012 election, after preparing as a pro-abortion Independent candidate for the 2000 election, and having been a pro-abortion democrat from 2001-2009 and pro-abortion for his entire life, that Trump truly and mysteriously switched to pro-life, as he was preparing to declare as a GOP candidate in 2011?

Trump in January, 2015—Abortion? “it depends when, it depends when”

In this 105 second video you see him using that line of his that you chose to quote, to sell him as pro-life, but then you hear that he is actually in disagreement with the GOP pro-life platform on rape and incest, and says that “it depends when” a woman wants to have an abortion, on whether he is against it.

Video from 2015
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzGrSYWAkxg

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

So no one can ever, ever, ever, ever, ever change positions. Not once, not ever.

Got it.

Thanks.

[ansel12]

That video is from 6 months ago.

Trump was asked about a woman being pregnant, and not from rape or incest, and Trump answered that it depends on how far along the baby is.

“It depends when”

“So say a woman is pregnant, and it is not in any of those exception categories, and she chooses to have an abortion “”it depends when, it depends when”

[EternalVigilance]

Trump is about as pro-life as Bill Clinton is maritally-faithful.

[SoConPubbie]

Don’t put your head in the sand.

Ansel12 made his point with proof from “The Donalds” own mouth from January of this year (2015).

If you want to support Trump, support him with your eyes open and be willing to support the positions he is week on, and that would include both Pro-Life and Gay marriage at the least.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

No need to convince me any more.

You are right, chief. I can’t trust anyone to ever change. Nope. Not ever.

You are 100% right. Now let me kiss your ass for showing me the right way to live.

[SoConPubbie]

CJ,

Please watch the YouTube Video from January of this year(2015) where Donald’s true position concerning being “Pro-Life” is explained by the man himself.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

I don’t support Trump, there are a ton of other issues I have with him and I won’t vote for him at all.

But why do we abso-freaking-lutely have to trash each and everything every single person does?

If Trump says he is pro-life, that should be a good thing.

But nope!

Shut him down, shut him out, shout him out of the building.

We need more voters, we need more support, we need to win people to our side of the argument, and we are going to succeed by acting like classless jerks who have a purity test that you must pass in order to get into our club.

[ansel12]

Are you paying attention?

He said that he switched in 2011 to run for president as a republican, but in that video from January of THIS year, he makes clear that he is still pro-abortion.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Are you paying attention?

Him saying he is pro-life should give us encouragement.

It shouldn’t make people trip over themselves to support him.

I sure don’t plan on supporting him, but damn it man! When someone is firing on the enemy, stop turning around and pointing your guns at him!

Accept the help and carry on the fight!

But you won’t. You can’t change. You must always shoot the wounded on your side because they weren’t good enough for you to take to the front lines with you.

[ansel12]

Are you on drugs?

Have you watched the video? Trump lied.

[ObamahatesPACoal]

Trump and Scott Walker have been living most of their lives in neighborhoods with few illegal Mexicans.

They can plead ignorance on issues they are not schooled on.

Trump probably hasn’t thought much about abortion until he became more outspoke on political issues.

Gary Johnson, Pataki, Schwarzenegger Rubio, Jeb and all the Bush’s have seen illegal Mexican criminals destroy neighborhoods yet they still push amnesty.
