In a very dangerous game called Russian Roulette, players put 1 bullet into a 6-shooter and take turns pulling the trigger at themselves. Obviously, unlike some other games, this one is pretty easy to declare a winner. While this is dangerous and, obviously stupid, would voting for a candidate that has had views ranging from progressive liberal to self-declared “conservative” in a span of less than 20 years be any less dangerous..or stupid? I think not.
Donald Trump has made a name for himself as being outspoken, brash and a bit abrasive over the years and of course, a braggart to the absolute extreme. These characteristics, however, actually describe MANY legislators in DC right now and, Image may be NSFW.

for that matter, many of our former Presidents. The thing that makes Trump unfit to be POTUS are his ever-changing viewpoints to fit his own particular idiom. You see on just about any issue, you can see at an almost multiple personality disorder level, Trump changing his tune on very, very important topics. Here are some examples as seen at ontheissues.org:
Topic: Abortion
- Ban late abortions; exceptions for rape, incest or health. (Jun 2015)
- I am now pro-life; after years of being pro-choice. (Apr 2011)
- I changed my views to pro-life based on personal stories. (Apr 2011)
- I am pro-life; fight Obamacare abortion funding. (Feb 2011)
- Pro-choice, but ban partial birth abortion. (Jul 2000)
- Favors abortion rights but respects opposition. (Dec 1999)
Wohhh…whiplash! Did you see that complete reversal? Now, many people have been pro-choice and then changed their views to pro-life when they have had issues in their own private circles that have shown them the miracle of life, which is, by the way, what Trump is claiming happened to him. So, with just this one issue, it may appear that he has simply changed his tune and now is a pro-life advocate…but wait, there’s more!
Topic: Health Care
- Obamacare is a catastrophe that must be repealed & replaced. (Jun 2015)
- Don’t cut Medicare; grow the economy to keep benefits. (Jun 2015)
- Obamacare deductibles are so high that it’s useless. (Jun 2015)
- Save Medicare & Medicaid without cutting them to the bone. (Jan 2015)
- Kill Obamacare before it becomes a trillion-ton weight. (Dec 2011)
- Increase insurance competition across state lines. (Dec 2011)
- We must have universal health care. (Jul 2000)
Ummm…pro-universal healthcare and pro-capitalistic solution to our healthcare debacle? What? That’s almost as confusing as being pro-Israel and pro-Iran…which, by the way, is impossible.
Topic: Gun Control
- A very strong person on the Second Amendment. (Jun 2015)
- I am against gun control. (Feb 2011)
- Dems and Reps are both wrong on guns. (Jul 2000)
- For assault weapon ban, waiting period, & background check. (Jul 2000)
So we can ban a few guns..like the scary ones? Which guns Mr. Trump, and where do we stop? Is it ok for the uber wealthy to have body guards that have access to these guns, or just an outright ban? If we do indeed ban some of these guns, where will it stop?

Don’t bother googling these questions and trying to find Trump’s response…he hasn’t answered them. Fact is, he changes his tune so much to match the populist perspective across the nation that he could very easily swing over to be anti-2nd.
There are many other issues that Mr. Trump hasn’t spoken to since 2011 or even earlier, but it wouldn’t suprise me to see his stances on other issues blowing in the wind of popular opinion too. You see, when a candidate like Trump picks a stance, many times it is monetarily driven. Trump takes care of Trump and HIS interest, and as seen in the last 20 years, this more than likely will always be his priority.
Our biggest concern right now should be in finding the candidate that isn’t going to surprise us with their answers 6,Image may be NSFW.

9 or 12 months from now. If Trump faces Hillary, one slip up or inconsistency and she will exploit it. One paradigm change on a dime and she will grasp on like there is no tomorrow…because for her, when it comes to politics, there isn’t. This is her last hurrah…her swan song if you will..her last chance to cement her legacy as more than just the wife who stood by a US president that had self-control issues when it comes to interns. We need a candidate that can handle this type of desperation. We need consistency on areas of liberty and freedom and conservatism. We need a candidate that will NOT sway in the wind and IS afraid to say something un-presidential because he or she realizes that they are the public face to the world for the sole super power and last bastion of freedom on our globe. We DON’T need someone who might get irritated and reference a woman’s monthly period as being her reason for asking him tough, or yes, even possibly inappropriate questions in a debate.
Thanks for the entertainment Mr. Trump! In a day and age with the nightly news being filled with Christians being beheaded and movie theaters being shot up by psychopaths, your candor and humor have been a refreshing break from the norm. Now can the candidate who actually has a CHANCE of winning and saving our country from the evils of socialism that Obama has led us into please stand up and take control of this potential catastrophe?
