Trump is as inconsistent as an "Establishment" politician. Politics as usual.

So when he caves with Russia, when he caves with the Democrats, when he caves with Iran, when he caves with Mexico, are you guys just gonna claim he changed his mind? Guess we will never know.
Don't worry, he's not going to do anything you approve of.

That's why I so strongly support him!

Consistency is -- as they say -- the hobgoblin of little minds.

Trump is doing what he needs to do to win and make America great again.

Which is funny because you would just claim he changed his mind every time he caves on something you don't support. We have seen this time and time again with his supporters when Trump says one thing and then does another.

Anyway, since you can't cope with the reality of Trump's hypocrisy and have been reduced to repeating single words over and over, best for you to just step aside. Thanks for playing.
I'll give you an answer. I'm going to do it without insulting you.
The first person to respond to your thread in post # 2 made a decent statement. What did you do ? Responded with an insult. It was clear that the reason you started the thread was to attract those with a different view and insult them. That tells me you are not serious about discussing the topic. Why would you be ?
The topic itself is about as important as removing lent from your belly button with a pair of boxing gloves on.
So it seemed like a fun thread with no value other than that. Being a student of human behavior I decide to respond the way I did and see what would happen.

Now if you want to trade insults I enjoy that too, and we can do that.

We don't care what you libs think about him.

Get it now?

He is the only candidate out there who has expressed even the slightest interest in building the wall, kicking out illegals, stopping jobs from leaving America (although Bernie agrees with him on that), and not fighting pointless wars that we don't win on purpose (Bernie also agrees with that.)

All the rest is b.s. as far as I'm concerned.

And if you want to talk about inconsistencies, flip-flops and lies, there are PLENTY on your side that we could talk about.

Can you not tell the difference between 'shouldn't' and 'wouldn't'? How about posting a quote from him where he said he wouldn't ever use one.
It's been a few days short of a full year since he announced he was running and he hasn't used a teleprompter until just recently, and even then he uses it sparingly - what, it's been two times that he's used one? He's not tied to the hip with a teleprompter like Hillary and Obama. How many times have you ever heard Hillary or Obama never use a teleprompter - not counting the times when the teleprompter malfunctioned? I would imagine the answer to that would be never, they would be lost without being able to read what their speechwriters had prepared for them. You don't know Hillary or Obama, you know their speechwriters. No doubt even if Trump does use a teleprompter then you're hearing his words, not some speechwriters.

Though, Hillary really does need one so she can keep track of all of the lies she's told. Obama so bad that he even needs a 'home' teleprompter so he can read off what was written for him about how good his breakfast smells and to talk to his kids about their schooling and what's going on in their everyday life - pretty pathetic when one needs a teleprompter and writers for things like that.

Lying about using a teleprompter? When did he say he would never use a teleprompter?

Oh we know Trump supporters don't care about reality. So will you be mad when he changes his mind on the wall? Will you be mad when he changes his mind on illegals? Will you be mad when he changes his mind on jobs leaving America? Will you be mad when he starts pointless wars to distract his supporters?

Yes, there is inconsistencies, flip flopping, and lies from both parties, and you are basically admitting that Trump is just the same as any other lying politician. His supporters just like to ignore that fact because he says what they want to hear even if it is just lies.

Yet, even though using a teleprompter and talking about respect, he can't stay off twitter. This appears to prove that he can actually read, but that he has a problem with comprehension.
