Today, real estate mogul Donald Trump proudly declares that Ronald Reagan is the President he admires most. Here’s Trump on the April 14 edition of Hannity:
HANNITY: Who are our past presidents that you admire most?
TRUMP: Well, I really like and knew a little bit Ronald Reagan, and I really liked him. You know, not only his policies, smart guy and so much smarter, you know, I always sort of have to laugh to myself when people try and criticize that level of intelligence. And I loved his style. I loved what he represented. … I thought he represented something very special for this county.
But in his bestselling book, Art of the Deal, published at the conclusion of the Reagan presidency, Trump cited Reagan as an example of someone who could “con people” but couldn’t “deliver the goods.” Trump said Reagan was “so smooth” that he “won over the American people.” But at the conclusion of his presidency, “people are beginning to question whether there is anything beneath that smile,” Trump writes. Here is page 60 from Art of the Deal:
Currently, Trump is the one who is creating “excitement,” doing “wonderful promoting,” generating “all kinds of press,” and testing the theory of how long you can “con people.” After promoting “birther” conspiracy theories about President Obama, recent polls show him leading the Republican field

Trump is the King ConMan of the Kingdom of Conmen.

Obviously you are trying to ruffle feathers here.....and insinuate that the Donald is a liar.....let me say this...he is making many liberals worried.....and he is gaining serious ground in the polls.
I want all liberals to hear me loud and clear on this one......
DONALD WILL DELIVER THE GOODS UNLIKE NOBAMA.....NOBAMA NEEDS TO BE ROMOVED FROM OFFICE.
YOU WILL TRY TO DEFAME THE DONALD....BUT GIVE HIM A CHANCE TO RUN THIS LAND LIKE IT SHOULD BE.
NOBAMA HAS HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO WORK HIS MAGIC.....TRUTH BE TOLD.....THE GUY NEVER HAD ANY MAGIC.....HE WAS JUST ANOTHER SLICK FEATHER MERCHANT.
-
THIS is another example of why trump will jump the shark shortly. the more people know about him, the less the repub base will like him.
-
Like I said - even if its Madoff/VanderSloot in 2012 who can unseat your lord messiah, piss be upon him, I will support that candidacy.

Great comeback from what? I don't care about Trump or Reagan. Why can't you post a freaking link, you lazy socialist? Waiting for Obama to post the link for you? :)

no, just like to get the tards going :)
::)
Blackass - are you voting for obama in 2012?
-
no, just like to get the tards going :)
So you're a troll?
-
Link?

conservative voters LOVE reagan. Imagine Trump being read that comment in the 2011 presidential debate from the Reagan library with poor ol nancy in the audience.
His ego won't let him apologize either...
-
Did anyone actually read what he said? He didn't call Reagan a con man. ::) Here is the quote:
"Ronald Reagan is another example. He is so smooth and so effective a performer that he completely won over the American people. Only now, nearly seven ears later, are people beginning to question whether there's anything beneath that smile."
-
240 is so silly in this to think we dont know what he is doing. He is going to find something on whoever the candidate is to justify his vote or bama in 2012, just like in 2008.

i didn't vote obama in 2012. so there :)
-
and like i said, trump is a liberal, a joke, an insult to this process. he's not running. he's a sideshow like palin, there just to put ratings up there during what would otherwise be a boring t-paw vs. barbour exchange for 10 months :)
-

So why have you spent 3 years actinglike he can do no wrong and act as if he is your lord messiah?

lol! Can we exclude any which are a direct result of the disdain i felt for republicans for not fully investigating 911? Remember, until 2005, i was the biggest a-hole republican here... only after all the 911 fishiness came to light did i wipe my ass with the GOP for a while.

it is November 2014. I carry a gun, I voted straight republican this week in a swing state, I want obama impeached, I hate anything resembling amnesty, I love rand and Cruz. I detest RINOs. Clintons disgust me. I am a birther.
if you want to bring up voting, statements, arguments, from years past, then you can, but you're a former clinton voter yourself, so now it'd just be a matter of "but but but you were a liberal more recently than I was, and you support XYZ tea party positions that I dont..."
It's november 2014. It's TODAY. I'm a fucking conservative. I support a whole lot of conservative candidates for the 2016 race, not some weak ass RINOs. I'll be in a swing state supporting Cruz or Paul in the 2016 primaries and in the general election.
Coach, I think we're approaching a point where you can argue "but you USED to do this and that", but since you did too, well... ???
Now, you can bring up old shit, or some debate points, etc, trying to paint me any way you want, and be a dick, you can... OR you can shake my hand and say "welcome back aboard, brother" and we can kick some liberal/RINO ass together for 2016. What's it gonna be, coach?

:-\
I'm a libertarian... and I don't like obama's plan, for the 97th time.
I'm voting republican, unless Palin is the nominee.
i voted libertarian and will continue to do so.
I AM a republican. I voted for both Bush's and one Dole in the presidential elections, so it really has taken a lot for me to admit my party currently has messed things up bigtime. I've voted repub my entire life, but YOU have the audacity to say I'm not one, because I don't back the current hijacking of the party? Sounds like you don't understand the tenets of the party. When I was running mock school debates in the 8th grade (Bush vs Dukakis), you were prob still in training pants :) SO I know my party. And Bush isn't it :(
I'm a libertarian.
http://www.bobbarr2008.com/
So I probably will vote dem. i'd love to see Obama choose a Wes Clark for a running mate, or a Jim Webb, possibly more likely, for strong military and defense credibility.

beach bum,
this same argument applies to you.
You can keep being a dick, bringing up old shit. You're a 2-time clinton voter and nobody gives a shit because that's old stuff.
If you want to post quotes from 5, 10 years ago, you do that. You look like nothing more than a petty dick to everyone here.
It is 2014. I voted straight republican. I hate amnesty. I hate RINOs. I am a birther and I want obama impeached for F&F
I think we all know you're a little "left of 240" on the above bolded positions. So if living in the past with 2007 quotes helps you feel better about being a fcking RINO, then you keep that up.
I'm looking forward. Cruz or Rand 2016. I respectfully disagree with the liberals and RINOS (liberal republicans) and will work to get a true conservative elected in 2016.
This is an olive brach, beach bum. Can we unite for a 2016 Conservative POTUS win? :)
-
My whole family - all Republicans - are voting Obama. i'm driving them to the station later - buying everyone dinner - making it a real family event.
-
It's 2014. All I can do it look forward. I would hope that conservatives, republicans would welcome aboard someone who wanted to help get Cruz into office.
Half of the republicans here were clinton voters. Many of them were pro-amnesty last week, or still are. That's a MAJOR obama position. And I"m happy for anyone that votes, even if I disagree with their choices. It's the democratic process.
I'm moving past 2008, 2009, 2004, 1992, and all those other times and I'm making it clear that I want to help get a true conservative into POTUS in 2016. Anyone here can embrace it and say "Welcome back, brother", or they can shit on me. I'm looking fwd and I want to make the USA a better place.

For whatever reason, you feel the need to repeatedly lie about your party affiliations. Why is that? Anyone regularly reading the board knows you are a liberal. Just be proud already. Embrace it. Own it.
And no, I'm not "uniting" for anything in 2016. I split my ticket on Tuesday, like I pretty much always do. And I'll vote for a Democrat in 2016 if I believe he or she is the best candidate. Independents do that.
But dishonest liberal hacks like you? You'll continue to lie about being a Republican/libertarian/voting dem/conservative, all while kneed padding and cheerleading President Obama, like you have been doing for the past six years. Nobody is buying that "I'm a Republican" nonsense. You're not.

beach BUm, I consider you to be very moderate, and liberal on a lot of positions.
You support amnesty, right? You are against impeachment. You thought the man that illegally carried 3 loaded long arms in Cali, then crossed the border into MEX, shouldn't be charged for felonies in both nations. some would characterize that as soft on crime - I mean, the US gun offenses alone could have gotten him a year in jail.
I don't see you as a conservative, more of a RINO, but I think you can call yourself whatever you'd like. I hope you vote Cruz in 2016. I won't be trudging up your 92 and 96 Clinton votes - you have evolved, and that's what it's all about - being the best person you can be, and supporting the candidate you think can make the USA the best place.
I wish you the best, beach bum. I'm supporting conservatives in 2016 and will work my tail off to get a Cruz into office.

If this is true, then great, as he is my choice as well, but your track record tells me you will be supporting whomever MSNBC supports (Hillary)

you missed the ones bragging about how "we, the internet generation, have elected Obama amd brought real change to America, after the lies and abuses of GW bush,"
Paraphrased, of course, but it was hikarious to read him pat himself on the back for helpig elect Obama since he hated Bish and thoighg 911 was a conspiracy.

hey man, half the kids here smoked pot as a youth, i never did.
most people here drank as a youth. i had champagne when I was 21.
half the people here were fcking in middle school, I waited until I was 20 actually.
half the people here have drank and drive many times - NEVER.
And half the people here voted Clinton. It's the past. Do all of yall sit home and yell at your dog for shitting on your carpet 5 years ago? lol come on

That is probably the funniest thing I ever read seeing how he and the others got so caught up in the hype of FAILBAMA in 2008

What's even funnier is that it's finally coming out that Bush was mostly right about all the lies that the left made up about him. He's too humble to admit he's getting the last laugh but you know he's laughing his ass off.

dogs dont make conscious decisions broseph.
Besides, its not about that. Its about how you were cheeleading for him, and then pretend like youre a republican or libertarian.
Itd be ome thing if you were like 'hey, i voted for him, i fell for it, i made a mistake', but every time it comes up yoi act like youve been a diehard conservative your whole life.
Repubs vote democrat sometimes, democrats vote republican sometime. Thats not a big deal to me. I find it funny tho when someone decries someone so much, claims they hate him and have never supported them, but at the time they were bragging about getting him elected.
Its more about being disengenuous with your history to try and throw down like you were a conservative...
But the reality is Rob, you float against whichever group is en vogue.
When it was bush, you were hardcore anti-republican.
Now that its Obama, you pretend to be hardcote anti democrat.
You just have to align ypurself against whoever is the 'in party' at the time.
Hell, just look at here.... when everyones hating on one issue, you go the other way... then if it goes the other way, you swing back.
Basocally, you just argue to argue, you dont have any deeply seated beliefs.

Itd be one thing if you were like 'hey, i voted for him, i fell for it, i made a mistake',

I would love to but the majority of your posts are not just anti-conservative but they're patronizing when you try to make an argument for the repubs. If you claim to be a republican and come off as a flaming liberal (and I don't think too many here would disagree) then you might have a point. You CLEARLY support Obama. How come you just don't admit it?
