He was conservative enough to work as mayor of NYC. As president, I'd want someone more conservative.

I get it. You want conservatives who hold spending down, balance or at least lower the deficit, advocate for moral issues, and protect free trade just like our nation's Republican rulers ????

When you say, “I think anyone who wants a gun in their house is stupid,” it’s pretty obvious that you’d ban guns if given the chance.

Trump relates very well to the average non-liberal person. It may not seem that way living in NYC where every story, newscast, and reporter hate the man and express that hate every chance they get but look at his rallies across the country. He is the anti-Bloomberg in terms of relating to the average person (again NYC liberals excluded).

Not so. I personally would not own a gun in a urban area. Yet, I would if I lived in a rural area. In NYC my taxes pay for police who for the most part do a great job. Otherwise I would have gun and it might lead to an accident or suicide. In the country I would have to defend myself. Yet, admit It, as much as you and I believe in gun rights, tell me there aren't stupid gun nuts ??? Tell me they are not people who make you shake your heads as plain stupid.

As far as others previously on the ballot Crooked Hillary simply screwed Bernie. She refused
to hand over the reigns at the most opportune of times to this man. She felt her poop didn't stink.
She made up her mind long ago. She was going for broke and the results left the entire
Democratic party in shambles. After almost a 70 year run in the last 100 years Hillary Clinton,
will be remembered as the person who took down the unbeatable and unstoppable Democratic
Party and I say good riddance to her and her cronies. think:
Why is his height or any other physical trait relevant to a discussion on policy or accomplishments?

Can you imagine if someone said "Hilary Clinton, although flat chested.. yadda yadda"?

Or "Ted Cruz. although Hispanic.... yadda yadda"

Historically the taller candidate for U.S. president wins. You can look it up.

Agreed. Bloomberg does not believe in personal freedom so he's a strong "no" for me
