11 Things Every Conservative Needs to Know About Donald Trump
Guest Post by Justin King
(TFC) Washington, DC – Donald Trump’s PR machine has engaged in an amazing feat. It has cast a spell over conservatives in the country and caused those base Republicans to abandon everything they stand for. If you’re a conservative, you need to read this more than anyone.
1. Donald Trump is a conservative. He’s not. He’s never been one. He referred to the Democratic party as the party of the “working man.” When he first publicly discussed running in 1990, he said he’d better run as a Democrat. In fact, until 2010 most of his money went to the Democratic party. The most hated Democrats, Reid and Pelosi, came to power with his help. For the last five years, he’s been systematically buying the GOP. Incidentally, that was the same time he switched his party to independent because he was considering a third party run. Politico reports that
“Trump donated $5,000 to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and $20,000 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in the 2006 cycle, effectively buoying the election prospects of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, respectively.
Just $1,000 of Trump’s money in the 2006 cycle went to the National Republican Senatorial Committee.”
Basically when he decided he needed some dummies to dupe, he started funding the Republican party.
2. Donald Trump would repeal Obamacare. Maybe, but only to replace it with a more expansive and expensive form of government controlled healthcare. Trump once said, “We must have universal healthcare.” He followed that up by suggesting we adopt Canada’s system: “Doctors might be paid less than they are now, as is the case in Canada, but they would be able to treat more patients because of the reduction in their paperwork.” His solution was basically the same plan Bernie Sanders is supporting today. Trump said, “we need, as a nation, to reexamine the single-payer plan.”
3. Donald Trump supports the Second Amendment. No, he doesn’t. He’s just another lying gun-grabber. His website states: “The Second Amendment to our Constitution is clear. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed upon. Period.” Of course in 2000, he wrote a book about how he would make America great again. It’s called America we Deserve. Here’s a quote: “I support the ban on assault weapons and I also support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun.” He blasted the Republican party because they “walk the NRA line.”
