Angry right-wingers have white hot emotional meltdown over Trump’s ‘flip-flop’ on mass deportations

Angry right-wingers have white hot emotional meltdown over Trump’s ‘flip-flop’ on mass deportations
David Ferguson DAVID FERGUSON 21 AUG 2016 AT 11:01 ET

What is Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s current position on the mass deportations of undocumented immigrants he promised his followers all year? No one is sure.

Many of Trump’s right-wing, anti-immigration supporters are howling with outrage over the possibility of any deviation from the plan to forcefully deport all undocumented immigrants. The promise has been a main selling point of the Trump campaign since its launch in June of 2015, when Trump said that Latino immigrants coming to the U.S. are “rapists,” criminals and “drug dealers.”

I've read that contradicting themselves constantly is one of the prime characteristics of people like him.

This story sounds rather hyperbolic, though I hope there's truth to it, but any supporter who imagined Trump would keep promises or actually cares about their issues would be doomed to helpless rage.

there are so many Alpha Male wannabe's on Wall Street and around the World who will do anything to get their name on some or any idea. This is how Trump suckered these dolts before. On Wall Street you make your money wilt other peoples money,not your own. You just skim it baby.

Trumps Campaign so called team are Media Creativity People. It was Ailes who built Fake Noise not Murdoch. And that plan was in the works since Richard Nixon's Southern Strategy. They had a group of AM Radio Stations and what they lacked was a TV network that would be GOP 24/7.

Right wing talk radio is really crashing badly. Even Rush Limpballs has inked a far less lucrative contract. I even suspect Fox noise may have to think about a re-format if they lose the White House by over 325 electoral votes. My point is - this double down tea party crazy strategy isn't working for the fat cat republicans that want to control the government. At this point it's possible they won't see the inside of the White House for almost two decades...

evolution of the GOP since 1948. Remember,the movers and shakers of this Party tried to over through FDR via a Military force. And today's same movers and shakers are just the next two generations that are trying to impose a Fascist form of Government that their Grand Fathers failed to establish. And boy do they have their Guy to Front the Deal. This has been and always will be the central tenant of the GOP,Government controlled via Business and Industry. The return of the British two class system. Amazing how our broken Education System by design,has and is contributing to this outcome.

disconnect between the Monied Elite and the rest of the Populace. I do remember a statement from one of the founders of a Dow Thirty Industrial Company. During a interview,his statement was,"there will always be poverty and unemployment,and it is not my position to change it",needless to say,got the job and kept my head down for five years and then bailed to a more people friendly firm. The CEO was just protecting the Family Fortune. His children went to Boarding Schools some place in New England as not to be around those common people in the Mid West.

People walking all over the place with Trump yard signs.

You don't see them everywhere, but if traveling, there are these pockets where you see his signs all over the place, not just in yards, people have big home made signs hung off their houses, errected their own bill boards, you see big banners on vacant buildings.

It is a cultural thing, and there are people who ARE going to follow him after the election, god willing it turns out the way it looks now. And, he won't walk away from it now that he has these people in corner, he is going to find a way to bilk them.

Clearly, he doesn't really want the job. Why else would he make such a strenuous effort to alienate literally everyone in the world?
