>>I searched high and low, near and far. But nowhere could I find any evidence of Trump casting a single vote to give taxpayer money to himself or anyone else.<<
Um, yeah, but Trump is on the other side of the crony capitalist arrangement. He’s the capitalist and the guys whose votes he’s buying (by his own admission) are the cronies.
Trump epitomizes what is wrong with both politics and with civil society today. He buys politicians and is a social boor of the first order. And that is why no matter how much Trump’s followers continue to rationalize positions that they would condemn in any other conservative candidate, he has very low odds of achieving the nomination.
I can’t stand today’s political correctness atmosphere either, but nominating Donald Trump is the wrong way to address the problem. And that’s about the only position he takes that I believe he’d actually follow through on, at least by example. I mean, we should be able to say whatever we want about Carly Fiorina’s face in public, right? That way our kids and grandkids will learn to do it too and, poof, no more PC!
We’ve got a corrupt socialist economic and political system and ANY one who participates in it is unacceptable.
I guess that explains Carson’s appeal... though he’s probably taken Obamacare money the dirty rat.
