[From article]
In 2013, after flirting with running for the Republican presidential nomination a year earlier, Donald Trump essentially endorsed Bill DeBlasio, who was known to be a committed socialist with a long record of being on the extreme left. Trump said,
“I think pretty strongly that he’ll be a good mayor. Maybe a very good mayor and I don’t think he’s going to want to kill the golden goose.”
This was said before the election when there was a viable Republican candidate running against DeBlasio. Just how committed to conservative principles is Donald Trump? Does he really have a core set of principles?
[. . .]
Over the years Trump has contributed enormous sums of money to individual Democrats and party campaign committees including the most unethical and partisan Senate Majority Leader in recent history, Harry Reid. Trump has justified these contributions as being necessary to essentially buy influence in order to get his real estate projects etc. approved. Perhaps so, but that does not explain when asked in February of 2014 who were his favorite journalists, he listed such liberal luminaries as: Maureen Dowd, Diane Sawyer, Andrea Peyser, George Stephanopoulis, Bob Scheiffer and Mika Brezinski. Therefore, does Trump, in his heart, still believe what he said in 1999 when he quit the Republican Party saying, “I just believe the Republicans are just too crazy right.”?
Donald Trump will turn 70 in June of this year. An age when one’s character and belief system has been firmly established for some period of time. Yet as someone his senior I must ask him: “Donald, who the hell are you and why should the American people trust you with the fate of the country potentially hanging in the balance.”?
