Totally off topic as usual. Just saw Trump's plane pass over my house. Speaking locally today expecting 30k according to the news.
Quoting: Gomez Since you opened the door, why is everyone backing Trump so much? I haven't wanted to ask because didn't want to get blasted. GLP usually poo-poo's all candidates saying they are all bought and paid for and nothing we do makes a difference.
Then Trump comes along and since he isn't a politician, they think he is our salvation from corruption and the typical DC cronies. Where are their brains? Where are the conspiracy theories?
My biggest concern with him is this: He is a Billionaire that wines and dines all the rich, famous and elect. He has given millions mostly to the Dems and very liberal agendas. Yet if you bring these things up, everyone says he has changed. He is a business man and to be one that has made the kind of money he has, he most likely has also made shady deals. He is used to everyone asking how high when he said jump. He blasted Pres Fox for using the f-bomb yet we saw him on tv shows always being bleeped out for his nasty language.
Bring these things up and again, you are blasted.
He has blasted Cruz as being a liar yet when you look the stuff up, it was Trump who was lying. The Carson thing, yes that was wrong, it wasn't Cruz personally doing it and that made him responsible. Here is my theory on the Carson deal. I think Carson was REALLY going to suspend his campaign and the Cruz people got word of it. They jumped the gun, and put the info out there before Carson had made the announcement. This pissed off Carson who then decided to just stay in for a while longer to make Cruz look bad because Cruz made Carson mad. Yes, I think Carson is a lot less "sweet and humble" than he likes to show. He actually gives me the creeps, even for a surgeon.
Trump has said many times he is a deal maker. He is a DC wheeler and dealer.
He supported Bill Clinton's national ban on firearms for some of the most popular guns in America but he claims to be very pro 2nd Amendment.
Help me to understand WHY Trump is our best hope instead of say Cruz?? I appreciate all points of view. And yes, I am asking here because it is safe and out in the open....well we all know what would happen.
