Donald Trump Twice Dumped Republican Party
The Smoking Gun ^ | 8/6/2015 | The Smoking Gun

Posted on 01/21/2016 5:47:21 PM PST by HoosierWordsmith

Here is a history of Trump’s voter registration since 1987:

* JULY 1987: Trump registers for the first time from his Fifth Avenue penthouse. The real estate developer, 41 at the time, reports having previously been registered from his boyhood home in Queens (though his prior party affiliation is unclear). Trump enrolls as a REPUBLICAN.

* OCTOBER 1999: Trump dumps the GOP and enrolls as a member of the INDEPENDENCE PARTY.

* AUGUST 2001: Trump enrolls as a DEMOCRAT.

* SEPTEMBER 2009: After eight years as a Democrat, Trump returns to the REPUBLICAN PARTY.

* DECEMBER 2011: Trump lasts two years before he again abandons the party of Ronald Reagan. He eschews the GOP in favor of siding with no party. On his registration form, “The Apprentice” star checks off the box marked “I DO NOT WISH TO ENROLL IN A PARTY.”

* APRIL 2012: Trump registers as a REPUBLICAN.

I left the Republican party, went to a nice Deli, had a sandwich.

Your republican party in congress just voted to fund planned parenthood, obamacare and the relocation of the Syrian refugees to US soil. Cruz was right there in the middle of it.

Trump is the only true conservative in the race.

For eight years, the Republican Party has had a chance to work to shrink government, resist Hussein and Valerie, and to hold the bureaucracy accountable. Yet, it has failed on nearly every count.

The Republican Party was given HISTORIC election landslides in 2010 and 2014.

The Republican Party's establishment got to its favorite sons selected as the nominees in 2008 and 2012.

Every time the Republican Party has been given what it desired--either election victories or its establishment nominees, that Republican Party has failed to govern conservatively.

Sorry guys.

Frankly, I still hope Cruz and Trump (or Trump and Cruz, whatever) team up and run roughshod over what you HAVEN'T done for years.

Trump can build the wall, get rid of Obamacare and business regulations, and hopefully put a couple of conservatives on the Supreme Court. That would be a good payback for the support he is getting from the grass roots.

Or, Ted can wield his Constitutional knowledge to move power back to the states and let them and their people govern themselves....while still protecting the obligations (enumerated and limited) of the federal government.

Either way, the Republican Party has FAILED to do that--in my opinion, beginning with the ill-advised bailouts in the waning months of the Bush 43 presidency. A terrible way to usher in more and more money printing.

Hussein is 10 times worse, though, and the Republican Party has been helpless--either unable or unwilling--to fight the liberal fascists of the Democrat party.

Thank you for the education....seems like there is another candidate who knows this as well...Ted Cruz! But, he is not a slime-ball gutter fighter like Trump!

Who cares about the truth! Hope and change! Yeah, a yuge wall! Beautiful!

Of course, Ted Cruz is also strong on securing the border. But he’s an illegal alien born in Canada who’s sold his soul to bankers. Unlike billionaire Trump, who doesn’t work with banks. Trump’s never taken out a loan, ever. He’s too rich to deal with bankers.

Long live messiah Trump! Hope and change!

Trump supporters wouldn’t care if Trump turned out to be Obama’s real daddy. They drank the koolaid and believe whatever their holy master Trump says TODAY. Just keep in mind that Trump may say something totally different tomorrow, in which case the Trump supporters will claim his past doesn’t matter cause that ‘was so yesterday’. Then they will post the same poll or story supporting Trump at least 3 or 4 times on FR, while at the same time, condemning all polls that show Hillary’s defeat of Trump still increasing. All the while, calling everyone a derogatory name that even attempts to point out Trump’s flaws and flip-flopping. Apparently, flip-flopping and hypocrisy is the standard, accepted M.O. of the Trump campaign machine. Good luck...

LOL. These idiots don't realize that this is a badge of honor for me. I'd have dumped the Republican Party a long time ago except it's the only way I can vote in a primary.

So if these morons think this stuff will hurt Trump? It just makes his election totals bigger.

This doesn’t matter to the Trump sheep. They like are the 0bama supporters in 2008. No matter how much you hit the with facts, they won’t care. They are all in with their idol worship of Trump. Trump could slaughter a puppy at one of hos rallys, and they would love it because Trump did it.

Trump is going to be the nominee, I know that. But that also means the country is done. There will be no difference between Trump and the Democrats. None.

Makes perfect sense in his business and surrounded by democrat administrations that hold power over his projects.

I dumped the GOP myself, thankfully!

“Your republican party in congress just voted to fund planned parenthood, obamacare and the relocation of the Syrian refugees to US soil. Cruz was right there in the middle of it.

#1 Trump is not a true or consistent Conservative! He’s a phony!

#2 We are all fighting against the GOPe....they do not have the best interest of the country in their heart.

#3 Cruz has been calling them (GOPe) out on this for going on 4 years...fighting against the entrenched interests that sell out the country...Can’t you see that?

They say that like it is a bad thing.

The Republican Party DESERVED it the two times I dumped them.

(although I’ll admit that I never registered as a democrat.)

“Yep, and the Mexicans will pay for it.”

And, has the Donald ever said specifically how he will leverage this payment for the “Trump Wall”? It’s all Trump Bravado...Obi Wan Kebobi mind tricks!
********************************************************************************
After the Mexicans pay for the wall, Donald will make sure that ALL Americans will receive health care— HE’LL take care of it himself...he promised after all and TRUMP (BLESSED IS HIS NAME) will always deliver on his promises.
