He put his name in the hat in June of 2015, as of this date he has not floated on rational idea on how he would run the country. Not one.

He has provide exactly as much detail as any of the other contenders.

Um, nah. Not that it makes a difference.

Well, I've watched nearly every debate and I've yet to see any of the candidates offer any specifics.

Huh? You don't know Ted Cruz's tax plan? You haven't heard his idea on a nomination for Supreme Court? You don't know about the 5 .gov agencies that he wants to eradicate?



I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log.

I'll tell you what my specifics would be if I were running.... A copy of the US Constitution. I'd give directions on my website to the National Archives Building for anyone who cared to read it.

Here's the thing about Trump. I was watching TV with some people I know. When Trump spoke, everybody Shut up and listened. Everybody else on the show was totally ignored. Nobody evidently gave a shit about listening to anyone but Trump. But this is the way it should be.

And I attribute that to people being tired of the career politicians. I'm certainly sick and tired of them.

Trump or Cruz, don't matter to me. Trump will get my vote in the primary though solely because like I said I'm tired of career politicians.

I think Trump is the Chuck Norris of politics. The Pope has backed down:

Pope Francis' comments not a personal attack

I would say this is about as close to an apology as can be given. Great for Donald!

That's interesting. Taking 7 brackets and making one bracket and rate is a progressive tax plan?

It’s time for the next American revolution; it’s time to reignite growth in our economy. And the best way to do that is through fundamental tax reform. Cruz’s Simple Flat Tax abolishes the IRS and replaces the byzantine tax code with a simple, fair tax. America’s economic strength has been smothered by years of Obama’s broken promises, and stifling mandates and taxes, such as those under Obamacare. A great stagnation has led to a lost workforce: Millions of Americans have given up trying to find work and acquire skills to improve their well-being. America needs a bold stroke of pro-growth tax policy to reignite the mighty U.S. economic engine. The Simple Flat Tax is a critical first step to restoring the promise of growth and prosperity in America.

Under the Simple Flat Tax, the current seven rates of personal income tax will collapse into a single low rate of 10 percent. For a family of four, the first $36,000 will be tax-free. The Child Tax Credit will remain in place, and the Simple Flat Tax Plan expands and modernizes the Earned Income Tax Credit with greater anti-fraud and pro-marriage reforms. As a result, the Simple Flat Tax will ensure that low- and middle-income Americans have greater opportunities – not only through minimal taxes, but also through better, high-paying jobs that the Simple Flat Tax will generate. Under the plan, deductions for charitable contributions and mortgage interest payments are preserved.

The IRS will cease to exist as we know it, there will be zero targeting of individuals based on their faith or political beliefs, and there will be no way for thousands of agents to manipulate the system.

No, it's not "just like we have now". It's "different than what we have now". It's also "a specific set of details on how he intends to run the country".

You're on Sigforum, so I know you have internet access. Go to Google. You can find all sorts of interesting information there.

I actually prefer Cruz's tax plan (As seen on Google).

Cruz's Tax Plan

I'm talking about Trump's plan, not Cruz's.

I don't need to look it up, I know his tax plan.

Trump's tax plan is this:
If you make below $25,000 or a household below $50,000, you pay no taxes. Sounds awesome.

He takes 7 different brackets and condenses them to 3, I believe... 10%, 20%, and 25%. Lower taxes, still a progressive income tax. he gets rid of the death tax and he sets corporate taxes at 15% across the board.

He is also a protectionist and wants to "discourage" overseas inversions. He doesn't say how, but typically that means tariffs on imported goods and breaks on domestic goods. Instead of letting the market drive the solution.

Are you serious?

Just last night Trump answered ever single one of your questions in an interview with Hannity. Did you even bother to watch it?

I'm not posting this to be argumentative, but I think it's worth a discussion. a1abdj, you said two pages ago that some of us hate Trump and are blind and deaf because of it. I don't like Trump, but my problems with him are of his own doing because of his policies.

Last night he came out for healthcare mandates. How many of us flipped out when that Supreme Court decision came down? I remember that thread and how many of us donated to Romney because we were so pissed off about it. How is this not a valid concern? I'm asking this honestly and would like to hear how it isn't.

quote:
The most unpopular part of Obamacare now has a champion in the Republican presidential field. Via the Right Scoop, Donald Trump was asked on Thursday night by CNN's Anderson Cooper, "If…there's no mandate for everybody to have insurance, what's to—why would an insurance company not have a preexisting—insure somebody with a preexisting condition?" Trump replied, "Well, I like the mandate. Okay, so here's where I'm a little bit different. I don't want people dying on the streets. And I say this all the time."

It's not an apology, it's a typical leftist dodge after being pegged.


(When the Pope was) Asked about Trump and his plan to build a wall between Mexico and the U.S. to stop illegal immigration;

'A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian,' he said.
