TRANSCRIPT
COOPER: If Obamacare is repealed and there’s no mandate for everybody to have insurance what’s to… and why would insurance company not have a pre-existing insure somebody… TRUMP: I like tne mandate. Okay, so here’s how I’m a little bit different. I don’t want people dying on the streets and I say this all the time. And I say this… Look I did five speeches maybe six speeches today we had a lot of rallies with thousands and thousands of people. I mean we get big crowds. Everytime I talk about this I get standing ovations. The Republican people, they’re wonderful people, they don’t want people dying on the streets. Sometimes they say, “Donald Trump wants single-payer.” Because there is a group of people, as good as these plans are, and by the way your insurance will go way down you’ll have better players, you’ll get your own doctor COOPER: Which… TRUMP: Obama lied. Remember this… COOPER: A person with a pre-existing condition should be able to get insurance? TRUMP: Yes. Obama lied when he said you’re gonna keep your plan, you get to keep your doctor. I was a pure lie. Frankly many democrats went along only because they believed him. He lied twenty-eight times. Twenty-eight times he said it. Twenty-eight times. If that were in the private sector you be sued for fraud. Okay? He lied to get the plan through. He got it through and it’s turned out to be a disaster. The wrong people are buying it. You know what’s happening. It’s dead. It’s gonna… Look, ObamaCare is dead. It’s gonna be repealed, gonna be replaced. But I will say this, Anderson, if we don’t do something quickly you can have a health care problem that you… like you’ve never seen before in this country. Now the new plan is good, it’s going to be inexpensive, it’s going to be much better for the people. But there’s gonna be a group of people at the bottom people that haven’t done well, people that don’t have any money that won’t be able to be taken care of. We’re gonna take care of them through maybe concepts of medicare. We have hospitals that aren’t doing well. We have doctors aren’t doing well. You cannot let people die on the street, okay? Now some people would say “that’s not a very Republican thing to say.” Every time I say this at a rally, or even today I said it, once again a standing ovation, I said, you know, the problem is everybody thinks that you people as Republicans hate the concept of taking care of people that are really, really sick and are gonna die. And that’s not single-payer, by the way, that’s called “heart.” We’ve gotta take care of people that can’t take care of themselves. But the plans will be much less expensive than Obamacare, they’ll be far better than Obamacare, you’ll get your doctor you get everything you want to get, it’ll be unbelievable. [Italics are mine, read this a couple of times.] But you’ve got to get rid of the lines. You’ve got to have competition. those people that are left, we gotta help them live and everybody likes it when I say it, and that includes Republicans and it’s not single-payer. View Quote |

Trump supporters are either willfully ignorant or they are mouth-breathing stupid.

Well, let's just say that I stridently disagree with Trump on this. As in - we're 180 degrees apart on this. And this is a really, really, really big issue for me, up there with the 2A.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I cannot vote for this guy in good conscience. And I won't. If any of you give two shits about my lil' 'ol vote for the eventual (R) nominee, you'd better make damn sure that nominee isn't Trump. Tell a friend. |

He's changed. He's evolved since he said that. Why are you pulling old quotes from him?
|

The more the guy talks. The more that I am sure that he does not want to be POTUS.
I think he is trying to find a way out. |

Trump is a statist. Wow, there's a shocker.

Heard a caller on Rush trying to explain what Trump really meant to say. Rush did not seem amused by this development.

Are you saying it's wrong to change your mind? Have you never changed you mind in less than 24 hours? You never had your wife ask, "hey, what do you want to do for dinner tonight. Is take-out ok?" Said yes, then saw steaks were on sale at the grocery store and decided to grill instead. Totally hypocritical. But I expect that from Cruzbots. (obvious sarcasm should be obvious) |

If you watched the whole interview you would be unimpressed even if you are a staunch Trump supporter. He never answered anyone's questions. I think his act is going to burn out by November.

For some, the only qualifications needed for becoming president are pissing off the GOP and talking tough to the media

Trump supporters are either willfully ignorant or they are mouth-breathing stupid. View Quote Sums it up pretty well. They are so set on destroying the gop that they don't care what they get. Was listening to "the experts" talking the past couple of days. He CANNOT win but they are placing their bets on it. At 36% (trump) Hillary or Sanders will stomp him and "the experts" don't see him getting to 45% in the best case. That means dems win. 40% of the republicans polled say the will NEVER vote for him in the most recent polling. The sooner all the also rans get out of it and either Cruz or Rubio are one on one the better. Hopefully before it's too late and he ends up the nominee. Cruz or Rubio trounce him in a head to head match up. The problem is those two and the other chaff are splitting the anti trump vote. If it comes together he is history Rubio is not my pick, CRUZ is, but Rubio has the best chance of beating the dems. |

Cruz will play recordings of him saying these things.....Donald will deny ever saying it.......and the Trumpsuckers will accept his denial and keep supporting him. |

I think he's saying what people want to hear as a lot of America is fed up with the way shit's bee going for the past 8+ years. When he actually had an audience, a big one at that, he was shocked himself. He knew his cult of personality skills would make people follow him blindly. Hell, he even said so himself -- "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters." And now that he knows this, and there's truth in it, he can now be free to be who is really is. To say what he really thinks. |

You are willfully ignoring all the BS that is Trump. He is for gun control and he is for his own version of Obamacare, if not Obamacare itself and yet you stick your head in the sand for some reason. His entire past shows who he really is and you refuse to accept it. Even when he's telling the truth, you stick your fingers in your ears like a 5 year old. |

Is it possible to have a reasonable discussion, based on facts and logic about Trump any more? Just curious......has GD discussed his funding of the boehner and mcconnell primary campaigns yet?
