Best post on the thread.
Thing is, in a very real way, right now Trump is simply selling a different brand of “hope and change” and, just like the last time, is not getting into real specifics of what that “hope” and “change” really is.
We know how that worked out last time.
I think I have read most if not all Trump hit pieces here on FR along with multiple vanities concerned with my soul if I don’t reconsider supporting Trump. Oh, and lots of insults about my intelligence from Trump haters/Cruz supporters.
I have NOT read yet any article interviewing or quoting any of Trump’s employees or competitors saying that he is untrustworthy, dishonest or a quittor. For a man that has been in the public eye for 30 years I find that very telling.

I am with you as a concern troll regarding Trump.
While I really appreciate how he has handled the msm and the standard GOPe, I am watching his comments and past performance closely. I am still not sure how much of an original intent and constitutional conservative he is.
But as P-Marlowe has pointed out, Trumps coattails will be very long. Will those coattails bring in real original intent and constitutional conservatives or GOPe milquetoast leftists? I don’t know yet. And what about his cabinet, same question. And what about his Supreme Court nominees, same question.
Alright we get it. You can’t stand Trump and your positive statements are simply camouflage covering. What you’re really waiting for is for him to stumble so you can say “I told you so.”
You have the right to your opinion, of course. But have the honesty to say so and not continue to pick apart everyone’s opinion with your “concern.”
You can take all your “Hope and Change” with all its insurance policies and lawyers standing in the wings, while I follow my instincts and my not inconsiderable analyses of the choices and choose my hope and change with a large dose of reality.
