Why Did Rush Limbaugh Stop Telling Us What He Thinks?

[txradioguy]

Openness? Meaning what? Possibly consider? Scarey stuff, eh?

Trump schlonged the competition. What's McConnell going to do, reject a clear winner?

Donald Trump donated to Mitch McConnell

Your lamesauce attempt to say "see Cruz did it too"...failed miserably.

You suck at trolling.  Go away and come back when you've gotten some skills.

[wolfcreek]

They never have and because they are Liberal they don't need to.  Remember to Liberals the accusation is more important than any factual proof.

The threat of being called racist has cowed the GOP for decades.

Exactly. It's about time someone rose above those accusations.

[Jazzhead]

Exactly. It's about time someone rose above those accusations.

So why nominate someone who feeds into those accusations?   Watching the alt-right embrace Trump is truly troubling to me.

It happened. Now unless we want Hillary for 4 to 8 years, we need to support Trump and hope he keeps his promises.

That's all we got.

What if you hope he doesn't keep his promises?  On free trade, for example?  What if you don't support punishing American companies for trying to compete in a global economy?  Or deporting 35 million Mexican immigrants in a reign of terror?  Or carpet bombing the middle east and killing hundreds of thousands of innocent people?  Or not reforming entitlements?

Who do I vote for if I don't want Trump to keep any of these promises?

Free trade ain't free at all. [it's very costly]

 Lower corporate taxes will bring those companies back home with more profits and jobs.

 Those would be 'illegal' aliens who are criminally trespassing  in this country and who cares what happens to ISIS?

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

Not as costly as protectionism.

I still maintain most of what Trump is saying on the campaign trail is to attract every voter he can.

Small business is the engine that drives America.  Not the corporations that fled to Mexico to build cars or cookies.

Soon as Obamacare is repealed, the economy will explode.

OK, good.  So that's one Trump supporter who wants him to keep his promises and one who doesn't.

You suck at reading comprehension. You must be a Freeper.

Trump contributed nearly a cool million dollars to the Republicans. $5,000.00 to Cruz's PAC. Wasn't Cruz a Tea Party guy?????

I am repeatedly assured that the contributions Trump made to the Democrats were 'just business'.
What is there to make me think that his contributions to Republicans were anything but 'just business' too, and not any more or less ideologically driven? Just because he made more to the GOP side doesn't mean he was in agreement with anything but the price of access or a favor to point to in the future.

BTW when you are a multi-billionaire, a million dollars really is pocket change.

Tell that to those who lost their jobs to globalization. BTW, it's getting worse.

45% Tariffs and threatening companies to move back to the states or else ain't gonna help either.

Obama has been threatening them. IMO, Trump would be using leverage.

If he creates are better, more profitable business environment, they will move money and jobs back to the US.

[txradioguy]

Where exactly has Obama been threatening that kind of tariff?

How is slapping what amounts to a 45% tax on imports from a country going to create a " more profitable business environment"?

Telling companies like Apple or Ford or Carrier bring your business back or else....or just lowering the amount of double taxiation on income that's already been taxed won't bring jobs back to the U.S.

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

How will slapping a 45% tax on anything make anyone "feel" richer? It won't.

The Obama admin [treasury] has been threatening companies for moving their headquarters off-shore (inversion) who are trying to escape our 35% tax. [Obama needs that money for his agenda]

It's my understanding that Trump wants to lower the corporate tax rate to encourage companies to stay here and create jobs. I haven't heard about a 45% rate.

To the contrary, it will raise consumer prices and make folks poorer.

Link?

He'll back peddle on that here shortly...give him time.  He still wants to impost a 3% tax on the companies keeping their cash assets offshore...even though they've already payed corporate taxes on them in the country where the Headquarters is located.

Trumps call for a 45% tariff.

http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-45-tariff-chinese-imports-china-2016-1?op=1

That's an instant 45% tax on anything you buy in the store these days.

He wants to punish companies that move manufacturing outside the U.S. 

How is that going to motivate them to create more jobs in the U.S.?

He said he wanted a 45% tariff on companies leaving. This will no doubt be answered with similar actions by other countries, and will make our workers poorer.
