I do remember something about thou shall not steal.

I don’t remember Jesus saying it was okay to steal for your favorite good cause just because you form a mob majority to take what you want.

Like all good socialist, all those who failed before them “did it wrong” and they are smarter and wiser and will make it work this time - just trust them...

Never mind the concept is poisoned at the root and will never work...

Well that's ancient history...

The quotes in this article supersedes whatever he said before because it is the most recent position he's stated (at least that I know of). And this last one is “government's gonna pay for it” which is conflicts with your quote from his book.

His positions change with the wind and you have to keep up... He's really sincere about it so lap it up. A little more socialism will make America Great again!

Wow! Now, that’s quite a return on investment....for Mr Mercer, isn’t it?

$3M is not a small amount.

Thanks for providing that info/link.

"Pressed again on Sunday, he still refused to offer details."

Not true. Trump said it would be "something terrific". That's enough details for the Trump supporters.

Trump: I'll replace ObamaCare with 'something terrific'

Silly rabbit, it only matters what Trump said 5 minutes ago, not last year or last week.

If you mean taxes. Was not Jesus the one that said to pay your taxes - he said it a couple of times in the New Testament. I never heard Jesus state taxes were theft. Can you point that passage out to me.

"Trump made the horrible mistake of saying, I won't leave people dying in the street if they are broke."

We already have Medicare and Medicaid, so what is he talking about?

Kinda like Ted Cruz's immigration plan then. Constantly shifting in the wind.

There is also the law that says emergency rooms must treat people regardless of their ability to pay.

Trump sounds like a Democrat, talking about people dying in the streets. Actually, he sounds a lot like Obama with his comments of doctors lopping the feet off of diabetes patients.

I actually do not blame him, Trump is just out of touch like so many politicians.

Hasn’t changed that much:
http://www.cruz.senate.gov/?p=press_release&id=105

Trump the year before was telling us how “mean-spirited” Romney was for wanting to remove illegals.

But one guy is terrible and shifting with the wind while the other is a-okay with you.

You’ll be hard pressed to find many other “shifts” for Cruz but there’s a long list for Trump... Virtually every issue Trump has ever talked about he’s taken both sides of at one point or another.

We don’t live under Caesar where he owned everything and required his due. His dominions didn’t allow a vote.

Voting to take someones labor and give it to someone else is theft. It is simply mob rule by the majority to take what they want.

I asked again where does Jesus say paying taxes is theft? I am anti paying taxes like anyone else but your claim it is theft per what Jesus said needs proving.

It's just one more thing about Trump that his supporters ignore.

I support Cruz even though I have a problem with some things he's voted for. But personally, my highest concern right now is the Supreme Court. When asked about that, Trump used his wacko sister as an example.

Trump Comments:

So Trump was calling for insurance competition 4 years before Cruz introduced legislation. Cruz became a senator in 2013 and didn't introduce legislation on this matter until March 2015, the same month he announced his candidacy for President.

Rush Limbaugh was saying he thought Trump lost Iowa because he was on shows sounding like Obama on healthcare.

Bret Baier at THE FIRST GOP DEBATE asked why Donald Trump supported single-payer in 2000. Here’s his answer.

“As far as single payer, it works in Canada. It works incredibly well in Scotland.”

Trump is dangerous on health care.

Before people fell under the odd spell of the strange dude, we were all for repealing Obamacare.

Now apparently, Obamacare is okay if it’s called Trumpcare.

But putting money in the wrong collection plate was kinda funny as was two Corinthians.

That wasn’t a bony finger. It was a short, fat finger and don’t mention it either because Trump is sensitive about it.

That’s because Trump wakes up in a new world every morning. It’s Trump world where everything Trump says is true and bright and beautiful.
