Some news to report out of Las Vegas where Donald Trump sat down with Field & Stream magazine for an interview during the National Shooting Sports Foundation’s annual SHOT Show.

First up, the GOP front-runner came out against letting states control public lands now run by the federal government saying, “I don’t like the idea because I want to keep the lands great, and you don’t know what the state is going to do."

and i’ll have to vote for him in the generals..sigh

I live in California. Whoever the democrat is, is going to win and it is winner take all. I will NOT vote for Trump. And no one will blame me for either a democrat winning or Trump turning full blown pro-choice, anti-gun establishment after he takes the oath.

Anyone here think state governments are less corrupt and more efficient than the federal government? Annapolis, DC, Sacramento, Austin - I repeat - Austin?

There you have it.

The big centralized federal government does it best.

I repeat!

The big centralized federal government does it best.

“Folks who buy into this issue against Trump are barking mad.

Some folks have lost it.”

No, it’s just more evidence that Trump is really status quo big government and not Conservative. I don’t believe his “deal making” with the gop-e, democrats, UN, Iran, Russia and other entities is going to serve us well. The definition of a “win” is going to be subject to his interpretation and if you don’t agree your “nasty”. His previous stands on issues, contributions, endorsements do define him and the definition is not Conservative.

Yeah the only possible pairing is with Trump on top.

I’m ok with that with Cruz vp and I do think it’s possible. Trump will blow it off and say he was just ensuring the win but that Cruz is a stand up guy who is terrific.

It would indeed bring nearly all the anti-establishment voters together.

Btw, Purdue or IU?

Trump seems to be moving to the center with his statements these days which is very dis-concerning.

His true colors are just seeping through the thin fake conservative facade.

After Cruz, who you have? Carson? He’s a nutcase on so many issues. Rubio? Mr. Amnesty?

Trump is for amnesty.

In my personal experience the state parks here in Michigan are much better managed than the national parks.

The state parks have better facilities that seem to encourage visitors. The national parks are increasingly restrictive with crumbling facilities.

I can respect that.

i’m in NYC and even i’m getting afraid to speak out against him on here lol.

might get hate mail.

it’s not that i think he would be a bad president, but he wouldn’t be a conservative president.

He will build up military, cut taxes, maybe cut spending, come down on illegals.

but wont fight PP, will support gun control, and not get rid of many agencies, i fear.

Have you read the open letter? I am asking you your “professional” analysis. I do not have a formed opinion.. Yet... Cruz supporters present a completely different candidate than what this open letter presents.

We have yearly quotas.

Potential legal immigrants are patiently waiting 5 to 10 years in the quota line.

Trump wants to move the illegals out and then "expedite" the "good ones" back in.

Did you not know that?

Duffer, why is it you feel the need to branch out to prove your case here?

All you have done is reveal your bias against him. This was a single issue that proved nothing. To prove something you had to toss in a lot of other issues to make something out of it.

Then when you think of one of those other issues you can say, and there was that land issue too. Never mind that the land issue was a nerf ball too.
