Santorum is not a bad guy to have on your side, whoever snags him. Not an election winner but he speaks well and has respect

He would certainly have been many times better than what we wound up with. I, too, will not vote for Rubio.

whoopie shit

Every frickin’ person running for office in the COP claims to be pro-life and yet, abortions go on unabated in this country. Nothing ever changes. I’m not falling into that trap again. Trump is not breaking into women’s wombs and ripping out their babies. He won’t nominate his sister to the supreme court. To think he would is totally asinine.

I refuse to click on your stupid links.

We have a country with problems that need serious attention. At the moment, I see Trump as the only one with the balls to do it. Career politicians can all go to hell, including the vaunted Cruz.

Maybe because Cruz is as pro-life as Santorum, but Santorum will likely sell out to the establishment candidate.

So you believe his endorsement should be based not on integrity, values or positions, but on party invitations?

If so, was Trump offering a little quid pro quo and using Veterans as props?

You asked for proof, I gave you proof, but you refuse to see it.
Bless your little heart. Have a nice life.

Where does this “Trump supports partial birth abortion” stuff come from?

I heard the Cruzers were telling people this in the Iowa

Parial birth abortion is barbaric, few people support it though it is “legal”

I think Trump showed generosity in allowing the only two GOP candidates who expressed an interest in the VA rally to attend. If others had wanted to come I believe he would have let them also.

ah, you got the media slimed distorted versionof what Trump repolied ot that questions

Here is a recap

“She’d be a good Supreme Court justice?” asked Halperin.

“I think she’d be phenomenal,” said Trump. “I think she’d be one of the best. But frankly, we’d have to rule that out.”

Notice what he added at the end about his sister. The part we never hear repeated. This whole thing was a set up by the Washington Post and/or by GOPe since Jeb, nondefender of Terri Schiavo’s right to life, was on it within minutes

That does not change Trump’s wishy-washy “I’m pro-life, but...” stance. Or any of his other liberal views.

It would be appropriate to give him a Thank You card for the invite, not a political endorsement.

Alot of people see immigration as the biggest issue. It is a big issue, but with the advanced age of several justices, I think that who they would appoint to the Supreme Court is also a huge issue as well. Trump thinks his sister a partial birth advocate would be great on the Court. Also, Trump seems to base whether he’s pro-choice or pro-life on whether or not he considers the child a “winner”.

I realize that there is nothing more urgent to dwell on in the country than pro-life and gay marriage but there are a few of us who are actually concerned about the securing the border, kicking out the illegals, stopping the Muslim invasion of the USA, fixing the economy and rescuing the military. That’s what Trump wants to do and I want to let him do it.

Take your complaints on Abortion and Gay marriage to the Supreme Court who brought them on us. Donald Trump had nothing to do with it and has no power as President to change it.

Did you read what Trump said? She’d be a great justice - but he would not appoint her. His words. The words the press AND THE GOP edited from the interview
