Trump turns into Obama for South Carolina debate

Trump turns into Obama for South Carolina debate. He called former President George Bush a liar and blamed him for 9/11; then he defended Planned Parenthood saying they do “many wonderful things for women’s health.” Seen enough yet, conservatives?

        • I am pretty strong on immigration - that may have what put me over the top with Trump....whom I don't really support. With Scalia's passing, I am now mostly a one-isue candidate as the composition of the court dwarfs everything else in my opinion.

          • Did you answer strictly yes or no, or did you check out the other qualifier answers and the hidden questions?

          • I answered with a couple of qualifier responses. The more I think about it the more I'm sure it is immigration that gave me the results it did.

            Have you seen the video of the Carrier AC employees being told their jobs are going to Mexico? Heartbreaking but it isn't all on management. Think of what they have to go through to remain competitive in the era of free trade and globalism. I'm all for fair trade but free trade as it is currently practiced is bs just as the mass immigration of people who won't or don't benefit the US is.

          • I used the Carrier news link on a friend on Farcebook that is a retired Teamster when he was talking about Republicans sending jobs overseas.
            I'm sure it was immigration that gave your results also. I just wonder how you and I had such a different result, when I'm sure much of our responses were similar. I will say that I used a lot of qualifier responses to make my answers more clear, so I think that might be the difference.

  • I'm down with Cruz, maybe Dr. Carson, but Dr. Carson doesn't have the numbers yet to be a serious contender for the party nomination.

  • And yet, according to Drudge, Trump killed them in the polls. No, Trump's not a staunch conservative, but many of the people who point that out also 100% supported McCain and Romney. I will support whoever gets the nomination.

    • Oh yeah, I know what he's doing in the polls. It scares the shit out of me. It makes me want to cry. I kept my mouth shut for a long time, but c'mon, people, this is like watching the rise of Hitler: all about sociopathic oratory filled with anger, nothing about content and honesty. He lies like Obama, without conscience and without apology. Trump is not only not a "staunch conservative," he's not a conservative at all. You can't defend Planned Parenthood and say you want centralized federal healthcare and be a conservative of any kind. It's real nice the way he opened the discussion on illegal aliens and refugees, I enjoyed it as much as the next guy, but I don't for one moment think he means it. The Saudis have saved Trump from bankruptcy twice (so there should be six instead of four bankruptcies), and you just KNOW he won't rattle their cages by stopping Muslim immigration. He's a deal maker and he needs those Saudis in reserve for the next time one of his deals goes bad.

      • I'm actually hoping the country goes on "Cruz Control" but I'll vote for about anybody over Hillary and Bernie. That's all I'm saying.

        • Yeah, I feel you. Hard to imagine the USA surviving either Hillary or Bernie. I\'ve been having that debate my whole life, whether to vote for the lesser of two evils or vote on principle even if the guy loses. Spent most of my young adult years voting the straight Libertarian ticket until one day I looked up and realized I really liked Ronald Reagan and I hadn\'t even voted for him. Which made me question my strategy.

          • I can't remember the last time I voted FOR someone in the general election. I'm always just voting against someone else.

          • Truthfully, if we end up with Jeb or Marco, we might as well have Hillary or Bernie, the only difference will be that the disaster will take a little longer to complete.

          • Not that Kasich or Trump will be heaps better. The only one I can really get behind is Cruz, none of the others come close to him.

  • George W. Bush is 100% to blame for Obama´s massive victory in 2008.
    George H. W. Bush is 100% to blame for Clinton winning in 1992.

    They both lied and they boh slept with Abdullah of Saudi Arabia.

    You probably don\'t remember this but I sure haven´t! George Bush kept the US open to muslim migrants after 9/11, you may feel comfortable to push that under the rug but I ain´t!
    Momma boy Jeb Bush supporting amnesty just shows the rotten apple doesn\'t fall far from the tree of treason!

    Trump is only wrong in not being tougher on all of these 3 a***holes!

    • I'm no Jeb Bush fan, but your comment doesn't even make sense. The U.S. has always been open to Muslim immigration, for 240 years, and it is STILL open to Muslim immigration right now today. So how can you narrow down your field of blame to Bush I and Bush II? George Washington wasn't to blame? Barack Obama isn't to blame? Just the Bushes?
