*Coming back to add that I finished listening to Mark Levin - While he defends that he doesn't think Trump is touting Single Payer, he believes Trump does want government to have a larger roll in healthcare and he wants to talk to him to find out what his plans are with that.

One reason I don't always agree with Mark Levin is that he doesn't appear to always be consistent. He has, in the past, lambasted those that insist on taxing the rich. as he thinks it is a bad idea because they are the ones who create jobs.

He also said that he thinks the Flat Tax and Fair Tax are better plans, but Trump's is a plan that Reagan would have presented.

Trump said that in a few weeks, he will be having a press conference with his military team.

I just want to say that I have listened to Donald Trump interviewed back in the '80s and his point of view has never changed - Make America Great. I believe he is a proud American and I don't doubt he will do what he can to make the USA a grand place to do business.

There just might be some bumping of heads in Congress that he isn't anticipating, I think.

Re: Trump 2016

Now Donald Trump is going rogue and negotiating with tv networks himself.

Totalitarian comes to mind. He is starting to turn me off.

After reading a couple articles about it, I don't see it as totalitarian as much as Trump just not trusting the GOP to negotiate in Trump's best interest.

Remember, Bush's campaign manager was chewing CNBC out, not because of their awful moderating, but because they didn't feel Bush was given enough talk time.

I don't blame Trump for doing this. I don't trust the GOP to negotiate in good faith for Cruz, Trump or even Carson. They're out to protect their establishment candidate. And neither of those three are it.

Pay attention to what his campaign has put out.

“As we have for the previous three debates, the Trump Campaign will continue to negotiate directly with the host network to establish debate criteria that will determine Mr. Trump’s participation. This is no different than the process that occurred prior to the Fox, CNN, and CNBC debates,” the spokesperson said in a statement."

Was the food fight, lack of substance and the unequal time part of the negotiations? What is that statement supposed to mean? Is he running a reality show campaign?

Re: Trump 2016

The moderators in any debate are supposed to be fair and ask relevant questions.

It is obvious to all that the moderators did neither in the debate.

I for one I am happy that it happen, because this made it obvious to all, what we have long complained about the left bias in the News Media and now we have clear proof of their bias.

Re: Trump 2016

Presidential Platform Review

Despite Trump’s limited government rhetoric, he has supported a variety of big-government programs.

Despite his rhetoric, Trump’s history suggests a reluctance to engage in debates over protecting civil society from the imposition of left-wing values.

I don't know why you think Hillary will win. She's an awful candidate. Zero charisma and there is hard evidence she lied to the American public. If she's the Democrat nominee, the GOP will eviscerate her with TV ads about her lack of integrity. She will lose on the basis of that alone.

Hillary won't win simply because you keep saying she will.

I still believe that Biden is sitting on the sideline in the event she gets indicted. Ushered in as being the savior of the Democratic Party. If that scenario doesn't play out, I still don't think she will win as her numbers among women are not where they need to be. She MUST get 10% of the women and she is not there.

As much as I believe islam is NOT a religion of peace, and that there is clear evidence it breeds terrorists.... I am completely against Trump's proposal to ban ALL muslim immigration.

This would not have stopped the recent terror attack in CA.
