15 Trump Flip-Flops in 15 Days

Politico has a compendium of Trump flip flops (betrayals of the electorate, if you ask me) JUST SINCE THE ELECTION. Some are quite recent, current events obviously, and some date back 2 weeks. It's a long piece and I'll just pull out a few of the 'flop' portions, assuming that most here know the previous position Trump betrays. Enjoy. And don't take him literally. Ever.

Read it all. Keep in mind it's early and he's only screwed over his supporters on 15 so far. Plenty of time to screw them on all his promises.

 

1) He is not President yet
2) Its Politico which did all it could to smear the hell out of him including hiring a guy who covered HS sports to do so.. They are pathetic and have zero credibility at this point.

 

Well said and accurate.

 

By inauguration day Trump will probably have completed most of his transformation back to the Dem he has always been until deciding to make this run for President...and his TrumpHumpers will not even care.

Fortunately this means most of the garbage that scared people goes out the window.

 

Every quote is sourced.

Am I to assume you believe nothing he says will become policy? Is that how you made your electoral decision?

And we agree. Polibico is garbage. But on this there is no wiggle room. Trump sez "A". Then Trump sez "Not A". You'll need to own this scumbaggery. I saw it early and added it to the list of disqualifying traits.

.

 

Outside of my pure hatred of Trump and his defective personality, his past liberalism was his most disqualifying flaw.

Go figure.

 

Thanks for being honest i can see why someone that admits to being consumed by hate would use politico for a source.

For example i hardly see having an open mind on an issue as a bad thing only Politico could spin it that way.

 

Oh look, more fake news.

 

Yet no matter what he does the crybaby left will cry...

 

If you are to have an open mind, you can't look past Trump's faults just because he ran as a Republican. To me it does not matter who posted the story.....Trump started this himself with comments such as "I don’t want to hurt the Clintons, I really don’t…It’s just not something that I feel very strongly about” after making the "lock her up!" chant the centerpiece of his campaign. I am a conservative, but Trump has a long history of flip-flopping his views and even party affiliation, and statements such as this don't make me trust him any more than I do now.

 

The Politico has always had a liberal bias but as Wikileaks exposed the Politico was in collusion with the Hillary campaign and the banana republic DNC.

So were the Washington Post, New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, Huffington Post, etc.

Not much credibility with journalism today.

If Trump as President changes some positions, what it shows us, unlike Obama, Trump hasn't surrounded himself with yes men.

 

Yeah. We all knew he was just trolling you folks and that he would be much more reasonable and measured than you anticipated. It's never too late to wise up, so congrats!

 

yes, your right, he is not President yet, he can still flip flop again

 

Trump was trying to beat Hillary. The lock it up comment, was to help him win. Let us just hope that the things he said that got him elected he does not flip flop on. Like doing something about open borders free trade. This is the single most important issue that got him elected. It was shared by sanders although he did not publicize much that he was against open borders which he said to a Hispanic news network, was what the Koch boys wanted to depress wages.

So the Hillary supporters will care more about this Clinton deal, than his supporters. Perhaps they are mad because trump was not gonna lock her up??

 

This should be no surprise. Did his supporters think he was an honorable man? If you look into his business record it is tons of lies and lawsuits. But, I believe as long as he leaves guns alone his supporters will be happy. But #2, I don't trust him with guns any more than the rest of his promises.

When he got into NJ casino biz he assured the city he would not use any junk bonds. What did he do a few months later...junk bonds. He got his profit out and the casinos went bankrupt.

I mean, did any of you that voted from Trump think he was honest? Didn't you just vote for him to keep your guns? At least Hil was a little more honest than Trump. She was upfront she was after your guns.

 

I love libs, they think he's President now. So uninformed its cute.

 

He's also been clocked at 23 lies per hour during the campaign. [that's about one lie every three minutes]

It don't matter. They don't care. But they will.

 

Your heroes in the Republican party smeared Obama with an endless array of hate and lies well before he got into the White House, even vowing to disrupt his administration and making it a one term deal. To this day the deluded right wingers continue to say he was a ''failure'' even though the record show he was and remains a great success. You of the right wing "politically correct" crowd set the standards for hate and distortion. By contrast the OP has posted the TRUTH about Trump. Expect more and don't complain.

 

In other words, nothing Trump utters can be believed.

 

EVERY TRUMP QUOTE IS SOURCED!

Trump sez "A".

Then Trump sez "Not A".

It can't be argued. It's not attributable to source bias.

The man is a lying POS, a naked opportunist that 60,000,000 fell for out of desperation.

Own your poor choice.

 

In other words, by any means necessary. Pure Alinski, Baby!

 

That's take these quotes and show me where the flip flop is ?

No flip flopping, it's widely known with in the military community that those generals and flag officers who are in the top leadership positions with in the Obama PC military were fast tracked and promoted and moved up the chain of command based upon either race, ethnicity, gender, sexual preference or being a politically correct "yes man" or woman.

While for those generals, flag officers and even field grade officers who haven't already been purged by the Obama White House, the generals and field grade officers who are real warriors and know how to win battles on the battlefield who have been keeping their mouths shut and keeping a low profile until Obama is sent packing on January 20th will be replacing those PC generals.

No flip flopping, the Trump administration will be doing some real purging of generals who couldn't defeat a girl scout troop and will be replaced by real soldiers, Marines, sailors and airmen who know how to fight and win wars.

You are aware that the Obama White House has purged over 200 flag officers and field grade officer from the Officers Corps for political reasons and were replaced with PC officers.

One of those generals who was purged by the Obama White House was Gen. "Mad Dog" Mattis, probably the best general the U.S. military has had since Gen. Schwarzkopf. Ring a bell ?

Gen. Mattis, he has been meeting with President-elect Trump.

“Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.”
Gen. James Mattis USMC

 

Even if I grant you a triumph here you have 14 more to suck up.

Own Trump scumbaggery. You voted for this piece of filth.

 

No. You simply misunderstood him and most of the rest of us didn't.

 

If Trump were black, you would be called a racist and the SPLC would put you on their Hate Map.

But neither Trump or I belong to one of the protected classes so you can call us anything you want because they are just words.
