No flames here. Just curious as to how the detractors of Trump make no mention of the Republicans who have held various Congressional offices since the 1960s and haven’t done jack squat in advancing the agenda.

Reagan ran and became the governor of California to create a record. When he ran for President we didn’t have to take his word for it that he’d “changed”. There was actual evidence. There is zero evidence for Trump - it all words that this point.

Did Reagan pander for votes in Iowa using my money? Trump just did.

This has been Rush's and Mark Steyn's point repeatedly: these bastions of conservatism always have an excuse in the real world. They NEVER make a "stand on a hill" for anything because, "well, we will get 'em next time."

I keep saying it's about what gets done. I'd rather have a guy I agree with on 50% of the issues---but it's those 50% of the issues that get done---than a guy I agree with on 100% of the issues that gets nothing done.

For example, if all Trump does is build the wall, shut down illegal immigration, and stop the Muslim influx, that would pretty much be a good presidency in my book. Anything beyond that is pure gravy.

Selective reasoning, but I think "principled conservatives" are allowed to do that - after all, it's the trump ruffians who are too stupid to know better.

You’re right.

Most Americans care a whole lot more about a candidates vision for the future than about how they got to where they are.

To borrow a bit of dialog from “Fargo” this past season which featured Reagan on the campaign trail in 1978, “He’s got a lot of charisma, I’ll give him that, but I’m not going to shake his hand”. “Why not?” “Because the man made a movie with a monkey - it wouldn’t be dignified”.

But when Reagan came past, the character above shook his hand and complimented him. Trump has the same kind of charisma that draws people to his side.

Trump kills 500 puppies on live TV with hammer, while declaring a 180 on all prior positions. Supporters declare, “We don’t give a rip. We love Trump!”

The $50 rumor is a bunch of crap that was proven wrong. It was a BS tweet from a troll..

Show me Trump’s conservative record. Show me the time he has put in the liberty movement. Show me something other than words trump has done it increase freedom in America.

And if Trump paid for the care of feeding of 5,000 puppies, anti-Trumpettes would say it was just a fake publicity stunt because 20 years ago his 3rd cousin gave a puppy away ... and that proves he’s a liberal.

let me guess, you're a big Mark Levin fan and a "principled conservative" to boot.
