No. He said what he wanted to say. Then it started working and he had to talk out the other side of his mouth to tone it down

Except that if you look on Youtube you can see he said the opposite to everything you heard in prior years. He says what you want to hear and either you love him or hate him. I'm not going to convince you the dress is blue and black and you're not going to convince me that the dress is white and gold.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Is this your first time following an election? Everyone who has ever run has been accused of and caught contradicting themselves.

I know I won't convince you. But I could be convinced. Just tell me what you think he will DO as President that is bad, not whats bad about his character. I know he is arrogant and self centered already, so you're not telling me anything new. I know well what Hillary would do that, but for Trump I can't come up with anything actually scary.

What happens if tomorrow morning he wakes up and decided that he'll be more popular as a liberal Democrat than as a conservative Republican?
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

We don't need a third candidate who had little regard for the constitution. 2 is enough
Ironically, some have interpreted his comments (when he publicly stated he's not running) as foreseeing this exact scenario, and refusing to run anyway because it would mean the people didn't pick the president. I'll link to the article if I can find it.

As a strategy or an actual change of heart?

What would happen if Hillary woke up tomorrow and decided abortion is murder? It doesn't happen. People don't change their ideals as often as their underwear.

Aha! Exactly! We've finally gotten to the crux of the difference between normal politicians and Trump.

No. Trump has zero ideals, besides for his popularity. If changing parties and stances doesn't involve a change in popularity, then it doesn't involve a change in ideals.

Zero ideals? Or just that he doesn't take an interest in some things that you find important and that you're used to thinking of as central building blocks of a politician's image?

Enough. If you want to engage in hypotheticals then please start with the question I asked Dan

For fans of arrested development, Gob is named after Jeb, and you can tell why

So Jeb can't be trusted to keep a simple, straight forward  pledge.

Jeb was right all along to attack him head-on from the start, unlike the others. This from a Rubio supporter.

Imo character, humility and common sense are ALL that matter in a president. Trump is lacking in all of these.

And compared to Hillary he has an abundance of all three.

One point about trump is that when he says make america great again he means it. I believe he wants to put the u.s. back on top. He might have some personal agenda but at leastat least somewhat the right intentions.  Hillary's intentions are just simply selfish and power to a women and her track record with a high position is very bad.  Feel free to disagree
