Then you haven’t watched anything, not if you say Trump is uniparty/elitist. If you had watched, and considered, you would know beyond any doubt Trump is NOT uniparty/elitist.

I was remembering an old video of Trump from way back, many commented how much the same he is now compared to then.

Trump has a lot of emotional jealous haters that say a lot of things that really aren’t true.

“I thought we were trying to END the “uniparty”, not elect someone who represents it...”

The other fatal flaw in that statement is the obvious objective fact Trump is hated by the uniparty/elitists.

There are two possibilities;
1) He’s not an elitist/uniparty, which is why the uniparty/elitists hate him.

2) it is all an act on both Trump’s and the uniparty/elitists part.

It would be extremely hard to make a coherent and rational case Trump’s poll numbers and appeal are the result of an act on the part of both the uniparty/elitists and Trump. Again watch him at rallies, pressers, and media appearances.

I know enough about the TPP Bill to know it compromises our sovereignty and opens the floodgates to immigrants. Just a couple of reasons I don't support it and neither does Cruz.

Cruz not only voted of TPA, he pushed his peers to vote for it too. It does not matter if Cruz supports TPP now, he and his peers have already voted for it when they voted for TPA. I know you can not get your mind around that, but it is true and you will know it once TPP is implemented.

Right because Cruz knows there will not be 50 votes in the Senate and a republican will be elected in 2016. And that makes since to you?

Desperate times call for risk taking and he took that risk on the bet that it wouldn't pass this House. He may be right.

The reality is that TPP will almost assuredly pass in the Senate with 50 votes by the end of February and obumber will have his TPP with full Congressional support.

Yet to be seen. Look, it is legitimate to disagree with his political judgment, but that doesn't mean he did it because he's in bed with globalists, and yes, I know for whom Holly worked. If you think Trump doesn't have possibly more concerning affiliations and interdependence you are badly mistaken.

Ya, that strategy worked well on the Iran deal. Another one Cruz voted for, only on this one voted for the corker bill to slow down the Iran deal. Does it ever strike you as odd, the pretzel logic you have to concoct to maintain your support for Cruz?

Thank you Senator Session... for all you do and for clearing this matter up. I never was a big pro baseball fan, but if I could get a bobble-head of you and Duncan Hunter it would hold a predominate place in my house.

I still have my Hunter for President on the door of my shop.

I have him still on my big craftsman toolbox in my shed. Funny how you hate to take things like that down.

I noticed his son got him a good seat to one of the first conservative debates. He was sitting behind some young well dressed good looking fellow that twitter went goo-goo about. I was just happy to see one of my heroes doing good.

The answer you are looking for is in another response.

You say that "they01" and "they02" are liberals.

Well, they're sure as hell not the same liberals.

Nor are they necessarily liberals, at all.

I'd say that "they01" might be better identified as common run political hacks without any ideology whatsoever, aside from holding onto their place at the trough.

Meanwhile, "they02" might be better identified as common American folk who are highly pissed off at "they01". I'd contend they might get more satisfaction by supporting Cruz, but I recognize why they're on Trump's side. He's crapped all over "they01's" playpen -- and rubbed their nose in it.

That's pretty satisying, too.

No, it holds little or no weight.

Money talks (that’s why trump gave it to folks like hitlery and schumer), bullsh!t walks.

Trump on amnesty. 6/27/2015: SOUNDS LIKE AMNESTY. Trump tells TMZ, he’d create a “system of merit,” saying people here illegally should have “a road to legal status” if they work hard and contribute to the country.
SOURCE: http://www.tmz.com/2015/06/27/donal...
7/26/2015: ONLY DEPORT THE BAD ONES. Trump: “We have to get the bad ones out, then the other ones; and I am a very big believer of merit system, I have to tell you. Because some of these people have been here, they’ve done a good job, in some cases sadly they’ve been living under the shadows etc, etc, we have to do something, so whether it’s merit, or whether it’s whatever, but I’m a believer in the merit system; if somebody’s been outstanding we try to work something out.”
SOURCE: (7:20 mark) http://www.msnbc.com/morning-joe/wa...
7/27/2015 (one day later): DEPORT EVERYBODY. Trump: “But the good ones — of which there are many — I want to expedite it so they can come back in legally.”

You were onto something with the Trump voter registration. But to try to justify TPA and corker bill is pathetic. You would be better off just acknowledging what Cruz did and why rather then lame excesses. Cruz voted for the corker bill, that means the Iran deal has full Congressional approval. Cruz voted for and pressured others to vote for TPA, that means TPP will have full Congressional approval when just 50 Senators vote for it. Spin it any way you want, that is just the facts. Add to that that Cruz’s constituents did not want ether of these bills and the establishment did along with CFG, and put money in Cruz’s campaign, Well you can make your own conclusions from that. Mine is that Cruz sold us out for a few campaign bucks. That is why I will never support him.

Red flags surround Trump. While I am glad radio talkies Rush and Levin, who initially helped perpetuate Trump, are finally seeing a few “red flags” AFTER Trump attacked Cruz... I have to ask, why were they so blind to the Clintonista (A devoted admirer of one or more of the U. S. public figures in the Clinton family) in the first place?
How did they miss the socialist single payer red flag?
Or the Eminent Domain is a “wonderful thing” red flag?
Or attacking Scalia over Affirmative Action red flag?
Or the “Israel MUST make sacrifices to the MUSLIM people of Palestine” red flag?
Or the Twitter fight with Bibi that cancelled his trip to Israel red flag?
Or his close Clinton connection red flag?

And in between changing parties and running for president in 1980 were roughly two decades of conservative Republicanism and 8 years as governor of California. Eight fairly conservative years.

When trump matches that record dated from his 2011 general conservative “conversion, “ I’ll consider voting for him. Not before.

You reference what ever you want. The truth is that Trump has a very comprehensive position paper out on this. Unlike other candidates he does not use weasel words and actually has a history of doing what he says he will do. See, when you have a history of being honest people can actually believe what you say. Where as when you stab your constituents in the back (coughTPAcoughCORKERcough) no one believes anything you say.
