So yeah, just another thing that he has flipped on.

[Likely Voter]

I think it was pretty clear he thinks $7.25 is too low but he thinks it should be left to the states. He is trying to have every position on this at the same time.

[President Johnson]

Another reason for Democrats to support TRUMP. He will govern in a pragmatic way.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Big city mayors have already raised it to 10.10 GOP Govs have left it to 8.25. We know the GOP wants to keep it around 8 an hr

[Fargobison]

Seems like he has flip-flopped on this every day for the past week.

He is trying to have every position on this everything at the same time.

Nice to see that Warren is really getting into Trump's head.

[TJ in Oregon]

I really want to see a mishmashed video of all of the things Trump and Clinton have flip-flopped on over the years. Between the two of them I'd bet we could cover both sides of pretty much every major issue.

She won't be Clinton's VP, which is disappointing - we really need someone on the ticket that can spit fire back at Trump.

lol Trump is worse than Mitt Romney when it comes to 'evolving'.

Why not just put down that glass of TRUMP brand Kool-Aid for a minute or two and think about what you're saying?

Oh, looks like Mr. Progressive doesn't want to #FightFor15 now, wouldn't you look at that?!

I never claimed to be a progressive, nor did I claim to support a $15 minimum wage.

Well, then you're just anti-poor, is that it? You don't care about people and have a backwards ideology? Got it. At least we know where you stand now.

Trump has flip flopped more in the past month than Hillary Clinton has in her entire political career.

Who is the last Republican President to not raise the minimum wage? 


Republicans always bitch about the minimum wage, eat a hit in the general election and then just go ahead and sign it anyway. What the hell is the point, just support it from the beginning and get a few more votes in PA and MI.

The time has long since come and gone when one could have reasonably taken the Donald seriously on the substance of his speech. Now is the time to analyze rather what he intends to achieve by his speech.

I'm pretty sure we can take Trump off the stove now, we've flipped over enough that anymore he'll be over cooked.

Silly me, he already is. And making Mitt look like man of integrity.

Why would we support someone who doesn't actually hold any beliefs, and just says what he thinks his audience wants to hear? Why would we support someone who is just now taking a few liberal positions because they're popular, but, based on his own recent comments, doesn't actually subscribe to those positions?

Why on Earth would a Democrat support Trump over Clinton, when Clinton has a long-standing record of consistent support for Democratic proposals and ideals on most issues, and Trump's only political record is "say all the things"?
