Click on link for video. This is Trump from 5 years ago in an interview with Greta Van Susteran.
Good stuff. I think he already had a plan of running for president back then.
He considered running in 2000 I hear, as a Democrat (his real home)
He did run for President before. Remember the birther stuff?
Thanks, interesting video.
He’s been saying the very same things for years, as this video illustrates.
Bttt
Thanks for posting this. Very informative. Trump was and is pro 2nd amendment. He danced around the issue a bit, playing New York politics, but he said what needed to be said. I think most anti-Trumpers will just look at this headline about the “brilliant” Bloomberg and dismiss it out of hand.

Depends on when was is..
Dems and Reps are both wrong on guns:
"It’s often argued that the American murder rate is high because guns are more available here than in other countries. Democrats want to confiscate all guns, which is a dumb idea because only the law-abiding citizens would turn in their guns and the bad guys would be the only ones left armed. The Republicans walk the NRA line and refuse even limited restrictions."

For assault weapon ban, waiting period, & background check:
"I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record."

Ping Trump interview 5 years ago
At this point, it doesn’t matter whether Trump’s a conservative or liberal or communist or whatever. That’s not why people are glomming on to him. It’s because somebody is trying to stand up against all of this that’s destroying this country or trying to and attempting to make it look like he wants it to stop.
He stands at 6’3” very successful businessman, very intelligent, well informed, he listens to Rush LImbaugh, Mark Levin, Sean Hannity, and some FoxNews people but not all the FoxNews’.
To at least some who support him, apparently not.
That’s not why people are glomming on to him.
Obviously not.
It’s because somebody is trying to stand up against all of this that’s destroying this country or trying to and attempting to make it look like he wants it to stop.
No, I don't think so. It's because they want very badly for someone "to stand up against all of this." So they project this need in Donald Trump. And he plays to that emotion - he's the "ratings king" as he puts it.
He will play whatever role benefits him; whatever gives him power or money or fame or popularity.
What does it mean to say: "it doesn’t matter whether Trump’s a conservative or liberal or communist or whatever."?
Trump has been saying for years what he is saying today, yet he was a liberal a few weeks ago according to the TDS frEEPERS. Which are totally different than FReepers.
Greta’s so good with Trump.
You must be hoping mexican speaking Jeb Bush?
Is that your second choice?
No me. I know my favorite 6’3” guy may be the 45th president of the United States.
You taking bets? :)
