I can't believe this isn't getting more coverage today. Trump was asked what he thought the top 3 functions of the gov't were, and his answers were security, followed by HEALTHCARE and EDUCATION.

I mean, wow. The top choice for conservatives is a guy who has healthcare as his #2? Then education?

Crazy election.

Not that he hasn't done it but I can't say I've heard Trump talk much about education.

I've been a junkie of all things Trump. If he's talked about it, they haven't covered it.

He has talked about healthcare, and has said that everyone should be covered & that the gov't should pay for it. It's a little weird that this sort of position doesn't get talked about more among his conservative supporters.

In my observation the majority of those who support Trump want someone who is considered anti-establishment. Throw in the fact that he talks about blue collar (white) workers econonic issues and that's why he's winning. Nothing else he does matters which is why he can get away (so far) with everything he's done.

Are you saying education should have come before healthcare ?

Security certainly covers just about everything else.

Ah - no. Security doesn't cover "everything else."

Trump sounded like he was going for the VP slot on the Sanders ticket.

Maybe not 'everything' else but he was asked for the top 3 functions of the gov't.

I still don't see what your problem is.....can you clarify ?
 
Remember when Republicans screamed about Obamacare because Pelosi said they'd have to pass it to see what's in it?

Why aren't they applying that same due diligence to Trumpcare?

A Constitutionalist will ask where health care and education are said to be the federal government's responsibility in the Constitution.

If one wants to defend Trump I guess you could say he did say he would list security as the top three if he could.

.....personally I would think neither healthcare OR education are properly the concerns of the federal government......

You think I'm blowing smoke when I say I don't trust him lol?

All hyperventilating aside, Trump would very likely go down as a moderate president. Strong on security and national defense but moderate or even liberal in some areas. But its better than Hillary and the establishment won't be able to control him.

You play the hand your dealt in this election.
