    Wow. Ok, as long as you really feel good about your pick that's all that matters. I will assure you that Trump and Regan are not on the same planet. Regan governed as the head of the largest state in the Union for 8 years prior to running for president 2 times as a strong conservative. Regan's record of strong conservatism for years prior to his nomination are well documented.

    If by strong conservative record you mean signing the most liberal abortion law in the history of this country only 6 months into his first term as governor...or signing into law California's largest tax increase, well then, you'd be right. There are many more examples that I could point out, but I won't be getting into another long discussion tonight. It's obvious you haven't spent the time studying him. There are still a lot of Republicans that deny Reagan was raging liberal in the first part of his life.

    It only comes down to one thing though, you vote your way, and I'll vote mine. Have a good night

That man was a card-toting liberal democrat straight out of his mom's womb. However, as he experienced different things in life, his views changed. Hell, he passed the most liberal abortion law in the history of this country while he was governor of California. Yet, all Republicans today, put him on a pedestal higher than giraffe pussy. And rightfully so, as he turned out to be a great Republican president.

    Is it incredibly ridiculous to think, that the turn this country has made in the last 7 years, was enough to change the views of man? I happen to believe it's more than enough, and that's why I will not fault the guy for it. I believe that he truly loves this country and is tired of, yes I'll say it, "not winning anymore". It's true, especially from a global economy standpoint. So, sit back and bash if you like, call Trump supporters "stupid", "simple fuck", "window licker", etc....As for me, I'll take a page from history as I do my best to learn from it. And that includes not voting for the same, tired, old bullshit. But this is America, to each his own. I won't call you names if you vote for someone other than Trump

    Blahahaha, thanks.
    Reagan was a true leader, proven, Trump sold his $20 million dollar yacht to the Prince of Saudi Arabia to bail his ass out so he didn't have to file bankruptcy again. But hey, what would a fifth bankruptcy be to the man with a plan.
    Hey nevermind me, Trump will make America Great again. So, so great again. Better than ever, we will be great again.

    I just listened to his speech in Sumter via the Internet. I think I'm going to vote for him. Yes he is crazy but the special interests money won't control him. He is a business man and we desperately need one to turn this mess around. If it can be turned around. I don't think the rest of them would know where to even start.

    Yeah, because every true business owner files chapter 11 in 91, 92, 04 and 09. He is exactly what screams "Making it great again". Hell he will probably only make water available for toilets and will water our crops with Gatorade. Because plants need electrolyties.

    You people do realize that Trump is his own special interest. Just because he doesn't necessarily need other people's money doesn't mean he doesn't have a special interest. The man is in it for himself. No one else.

    No shit. He has been in the business to make money his entire life. Suddenly he's going to put that aside for public service? Not

    I'm going to let you in on a little secret here...how do you feel about Walt Disney, Henry Ford, Milton Hershey, P.T. Barnum,...etc. I could go on and on and on. Had these people not been brought up in this conversation and you were asked randomly, I'd venture to say that you, along with 99% of the others on this site would say that they were great business people. Would you care to guess what they all have in common?....that's right, they all filed for bankruptcy. Do I think it's cool to file for bankruptcy?, no. However, there are laws on the books that allow this happen, and almost all of what people deem to be well respected and good businessmen, have used said laws.

    A little tidbit about Trumps bankruptcies,...they all centered around his casinos in Atlantic City. Every casino owner in Atlantic City went through the exact same thing. It wasn't like he just up and mis-managed something,...they all got burned, and Trump had the where with all to get out earlier than most. Again, I'm not advocating that people all over the place start filing for bankruptcy,...however, there is a reason that it was voted for, and enacted by the people of this nation, and it's the reason that we have a lot of the luxuries today that we view as being a basic need.

    He also inherited a fortune that even today would be considered serious money. Maybe he isn't quite as grand of a business man as some would think. Inflation alone would make him amazingly wealthy. I've met many people in my life that given such a head start could do drastically more with their money than Mr. Trump has.

    Hey, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret, those people you named are not sabotaging a political Presidental race. They do not claim to have all the answers to making America Great "again".
    Hey I'm also gonna let you in on another secret, if Trump wins, I win, because I got in on a bet when Trump was still +650 for overall President, and +50 for the GOP nomination.
    It started as a joke, unfortunately now it has become serious.

    I would encourage you to come up with some thought provoking, and substantive responses. It could possibly help your cause in trying to convince me to change my mind. I'll check back in the morning to see what you've come up with.

    I'm not gonna try to change your mind, I'm just throwing it out there. Either way. He losses and another GOP candidate wins, I have a moral victory with a monetary loss I can handle. He wins the GOP nomination and loses to a Democrat I win some money. He wins the nomination and the Presidency, I can take my kids in a new Ford to Disney World and let them eat Hersey bars the whole way.
    So when you wake up in the morning, drink some Gatorade and eat a Carl's burger, but don't drink the water, its only for toilets.

    I could have trapped them, caged them for a designated period of time (still would have had to feed them) and then relocated them. But they would have come back for the free food. Much easier to simply remove the reason they were coming to my yard in the first place. I saved money and the birds left. Win win.
    good post Glenn
