1. Gorsuch nomination


Should be in top five I agree.

2. Put adults in charge of several key departments, such as Defense and State. I mean can you even compare Maddox and Tillerson to Carter and Kerry? LOL


Should be expected and nothing really extraordinary. Certainly not on the level of rewriting healthcare or reforming the tax code or ending wars.

quote:

3. Planned policies which buoyed the stock market to record highs


That is certainly arguable but still not on the level of ending wars or shrinking government.

quote:

4. Announced policies that resulted in a 60% drop in illegal immigration


Link please.

At sime point, that's not enough. They're going to lose their minds no matter what. Trump needs to give them real reasons to lose their minds by uprooting corruption, delivering campaign promises, and making government smaller and more efficient.

Right now, he's mostly just acting like a troll and declaring victory. No, at the end of the day, ypu don't win anything by pissing people off unless you're delivering substance to piss them off.

Then you've been looking with your eyes wide shut. Just because he has yet to do what you think he should be doing doesn't mean he hasn't done anything yet in 60 days.

It would be sustainable if not for EMTALA, the government and healthcare industries division by zero.

You would have preferred Hillary I am sure



This is the alternative many on the right fail to see.

At least Trump is moving the needle right instead of full throttle left (as Hillary would have done).

Would I rather Rand or Ted? Sure. However they did not have as good of a shot as beating Hillary as Trump proved.

For many of us supporting Trump was a practical choice to give us the best chance of moving the needle right. The chances of Rand and/or Ted beating Hillary were further remote than Trump. There is no way Ted could have broken the "blue wall" like Trump did.

Would I like Trump to be more conservative on some issues? Yes. But I knew he was moderate on some issues and the baggage that came with it.

However in terms of immigration there is no other candidate that is more conservative than Trump. IMO Rand and/or Ted would have been more liberal on immigration.

Trump could shot you in the middle of the street on camera and I would still support him over the Communist Left.

An astute supporter like you claim to be should be able to easily articulate Trump's position on immigration.

Does he hate Mexicans or not? is he going to deport millions or not? is he going give more money to the State Department to enforce visa regulations---if so I haven't heard it? is he going to allow hard working taxpaying, law abiding families to remain in the USA?

We've been dicking up the region for decades. What's another 4-8 years?

That no longer matter anymore. There is no election going on.

quote:

Hillary was certainly a war monger and Trump seems to be too. Is that right or left? Hillary and Trump seem to agree somewhat on healthcare because TrumpCare looks a lot like Obamacare and HRC was for that.

Does his election remove your obligation to stand for smaller government? for less spending? for less war? for individual freedom? if you are the conservative you claim to be?

What is conservative about Trump on immigration? Does he have an immigration plan that respects individual freedom? that honors working, taxpaying people?

Liberal logic

"Russia is our enemy and wants to destroy us, hey why do you stupid conservatives want to spend so much money on the military?"

I mean, liberalism is literally a text book brain disorder at this point

Oh, I remember. I led the charge back in October/November to remind them that this is what would happen.
