"Why not try reading his position papers? All spelled out nice and clear."

You're clearly choosing to ignore what you want to ignore, and believe only what you want to believe. To deny the actual quotes from Trump in my reply is simply plugging your ears and yelling "Liar liar" like your hero.

I know what his plan is. I’ve read it online. I’m online all the time. But there are millions of people who don’t use computers, don’t hang online like a lot of us do. Many of those same millions are not online pulling up videos of Mr. Trump’s campaign rally appearances. For those who are getting a sense of the candidates from the debates, of which there are millions, it would help Trump to spend time laying out his plan(s) in bullet format, like I’ve heard others do. That’s all I’m saying.

"tried two over 150 bucks, used to be made in the US, no more of course - lasted a couple years - the only ones made in the US cost upward of $400 - had to get them."

Trump's tariff policy will fix that. They'll all cost $400.

These debates are 100% attacks upon Trump and he should give them all the finger and just do his rallies and provoke the media into giving him all their time all of the time!

In that last one who but Trump got a video presentation attack?

Go Trump go!

He polls poorly against Hillary because most people know what a president is "supposed" to look and act like.

A little clarification, please...Hillary looks more presidential?

Well maybe if Rubio and Cruz stopped screaming at him all the time he might be able to get his message out. Every time Trump trys to answer a question either Cruz or Rubio interrupt him. It happens so often it has got to be by design. It is the new GOPe strategy to rattle Trump, interrupt, insult, accuse and if that doesn’t work lie.

Except he changes his policies all the time. His flip on visas for high tech jobs doesn’t bother you? Or that he is such a great leader the military will break Geneva convention? That he walked back and the next day said he would change the laws?

“Huge Trump fan but Trump better act like an adult and state he is no longer playing that game. No more insults.”

That’s about exactly what I was going to post.

I’ve admitted I don’t HAVE a choice. This is a real mess in my estimation. I live in Florida and will vote on the 15th. I’m no closer to knowing who
I’ll vote for than I was six months ago. I’ve been voting since the freakin Nixon era and haven’t had such uneasiness about our choices, ever.

It’s inconceivable to me to not vote, but this time it’s possible.

There were a lot of positive ads for Trump in SC, as I expect there are in FL...the same ones, no doubt. However, there were negative ones for all the candidates. They ran non-stop in SC the week or two leading up to the primary, and no doubt are running ad nauseum in FL, as well.

He wants to deport all illegal aliens, but he wants to "EXPEDITE the legalization of the 'good' ones". I call that amnesty.

He has said that the people that are here in America whom it would be in America's interest to have return will be able to apply to return legally but that it could take years and will not be a guaranteed citizenship track.

He wants to repeal Obamacare, but he 'likes' the insurance mandate. He doesn't want to have people 'dying in the streets' by giving them government single payer medical care.

His choice of the word mandate is unfortunate. He has clearly and repeatedly stated that the vast majority of American would be on free market health care plans and HSAs would be encouraged. The mandate part is the charity care that America is already committed to, Medicaid etc. That care he has addressed saying that no one should be dying in the street but that we need to improve our bidding and delivery system so that the indigent care is better, delivered cheaper & more efficiently. He has also outlined a significant improvement in Veteran's care.

He wants to punish business for producing off shore, except of course for his own clothing lines since 'you can't make clothing in the US any more'.

He doesn't have offshore clothing manufacturing. He has licensed the use of his name for some labels as many celebrities, sports figures etc do. He is consistently committed to bringing back our manufacturing base.

He wants free trade, except for a 45% import duty on China and others (who will immediately reciprocate, killing US exports - and don't reply with the line "we don't export anymore. We are the third largest exporting country in the world. It was export duties and their reciprocation by other countries that turned a bad recession into the Great Depression)

We are a net importing country by a vast margin and it is killing our economy. To negotiate any deal including trade deals it is important to have a negotiating stance and rattle your sabre. Americans have forgotten how to negotiate and are clueless about the need to "posture and leave the table."

Our trade partners are laughing all the way to the bank at how they are screwing us. Fair trade where America is working on a level field is in America's interest and the position Trump has commited to achieve.

U.S.-China Trade Facts U.S. goods and private services trade with China totaled $579 billion in 2012 (latest data available). Exports totaled $141 billion; Imports totaled $439 billion. The U.S. goods and services trade deficit with China was $298 billion in 2012. China is currently our 2nd largest goods trading partner with $562 billion in total (two ways) goods trade during 2013. Goods exports totaled $122 billion; Goods imports totaled $440 billion. The U.S. goods trade deficit with China was $318 billion in 2013.

"No one with a real plan could give details in 3 minutes while being interrupted and heckled. "

Paranoia, the destroyer. Nobody has done any interrupting or heckling during anyone's 3 minutes except Trump (save Rubio on very brief occasions after Trump set the tone). If you can not admit to seeing what everybody else sees at each debate and the childish antics and boorish, sophomoric behavior of Donald Trump then you are merely lying to yourself and the paranoid sightings of operatives and misleading behavior are merely reflections in your own mirror.

Agree. They all need to tone it down. That last debate was so disgusting, I turned off after the first 15 minutes. That wasn’t a debate at all; instead, a mud-fest.

Me too I watched about 15 minutes and then turned it off too. It was a Fox debate so I knew going in it was going to be a mud slinging contest but I was surprised at just how bad of a “debate” it was. The moderators just let Cruz and Rubio walk all over Trump. I would have told both to shutup and let Trump have his 60 seconds without interruption.

It is a difficult time. Trump has warts, we don't walk down all the same paths but despite, what the media says, on all the important issues he is internally consistent. He is not a politician and is not always ready with buzz words or glib statements.

Many times the media intentionally confuses voters about Trump's positions.

One example is the recent brouhaha where the media intermingled his statements on two separate issues:

1.Retaining some of the best of the foreign students trained at our Universities while we improved our grade/high school curriculum to get better trained US STEM students

2.The H1b Visa situation where foreign workers are brought in to undercut Americans in the job market.

The media took Trump's statements on (1) and applied them to (2) a completely different situation to make it seem that he was reversing his position. The Media has an agenda and its not in America's interest. So do the Uniparty elites and their Globalist cronies.

We all have an agenda but Trump's is the one that most aligns with mine. For America to put Americans First, get our country back on track to being prosperous, and respected, rolling back Government intrusions(Common Core, Obamacare, EPA) and stregnthing our military, caring for our Vets, repairing our infrastructure and building our wall ahead of schedule & underbudget.
