But damn... Using the words "I like the mandate" in ANY reference to Obamacare has to be the dumbest thing Trump's done yet.

Granted, Anderson Cooper's rambling incoherent question about the individual mandate and coverage of pre-existing conditions made it hard to tell what Trump was referring this.

But Trump should have known that the word "mandate" in association with Obamacare is typically assumed to mean the individual mandate and that any perceived support of that would be
radioactive to Tea Party and Constitutionalist supporters.

But Trump has clarified what he meant and I'm back on board.

Ok.

Edit was it "when I was a fairly liberal democrat I was for the mandate. Now that i have to be opposed to it as a 'conservative Republican' Presidential candidate, I have to renounce it..."  

and the rubes lap it up.

1. Couldn't this have just gone in your first thread?

http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1840364_Trump_clarifies_comments_on_Obamacare_mandate.html

Or the original thread?

http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1840221_Donald_Trump_Says_He_Supports_the_ObamaCare_Mandate.html

2. When Obama tried to walk back what he said to Joe the Plumber, did you believe him too?

Lord you Trump fan boys are dim.  You support a man who is for abortions, was for the assault weapons ban, supports the mandate even though he 'clarified' what he said to make you think it's OK, thinks Apple should be punished for failing to heed the govt orders to give them access to phones (fuck the 4th amendment), a man who clearly is not a conservative, over someone who is a PROVEN Constitutional conservative...  .  You listen to whatever he says instead of the facts of what he has supported.

I agree OP

Cooper threw a bunch of questions including  the pre existing condition question.

To me when I watched the clip it was clear Trump was only talking about the mandate with pre existing conditions but I'm glad
he came out to clarify what he meant to people who thought he was talking about the mandate to buy insurance.

Not a king, a strongman.  Trump will do what he's promised I think (secure the border, deport bogus "immigrants" and make the military something feared again and probably even free up some gun laws).  He'll also make Putin level machinations and decisions.  It's why Putin is so popular here.  He loves his country and is doing what he can to improve it while also making sure no one fucks with Putin no matter what.  America wants a decision maker after 20 years of wafflers and liberals.

And if it is he will easily be voted out of office in 4 years. Can't say the same about Jep or Hilliary. With Trump we have a shot at reforming the Republican Party.  
Trump has not spent his life in politics so it doesn't surprise me he hasn't thought every fucking political position through. But I have confidence that he will be a great cheerleader for America and will hire the right people for the job.
