    Seems like a fine response to me.

    There isn’t anything inherently wrong with changing your stance on issues given more, and updated information. I think most voters would be glad to vote for someone who says “Yeah, I changed my mind, did you see this last study? We need to do something about this.”

    A candidate who just “sticks to their guns” is certainly not one you want in office in changing times. Why is this even a fucking question?

    Trump’s head is stuck in his childhood. He wants things back the way they were in the 60’s. He’s unflinchingly dedicated to making that happen, and to absolve himself of his many crimes, which is why he is running. Fuck.That.Noise.

      When they start coming out with shit like “flip flopper” and it starts getting repeated from a few different quarters as a consistent attack

      That’s when you know they don’t have all that much to work with and they’re just making shit up that sounds bad

        You may be remembering a different time. Matters of current and flux issues, no problem.

        When you say insane shit like “I prefer soldiers who don’t get captured”, then turn around and say dumb shit like “I LOVE ALL THE MILITARY, SO BEAUTIFUL. GREAT PEOPLE”

        Don’t vote for that person.
