Wages and minimum wage. Not the same.
To think just ~2 years ago Republicans were going absolutely bonkers when Obama suggested raising it to $10.10....what a difference that ten cents makes huh?
Trump has good persuasion skills. Is it a must-have for a President? Cheesy

"Should" and "must" are two different things. At the end of the day, Trump was pretty clear that any minimum wage hike should be deferred to the states.

There's no way he loses support no matter what he says, LOL.  People have concocted this absurd characterization of Trump - outsider, contrarian (to Republicans), tough guy, business genius, etc.  People are supporting him for different reasons, most of them unrelated.  My dad doesn't mind Trump because he thinks Republicans in DC need to pay for allowing too much wasteful spending because they're all in a big "club" together, and Trump is an outsider.  Hilariously, Fuzzy Bear likes the same man because he's under the delusion that Trump will usher in a long era of populist economic policies like protectionism for the Republican Party, sending "business types" (my dad, who's supporting Trump) into the arms of the Democrats, LOL.  Racists are supporting Trump (not saying Trump's racist, though I suspect he is, I'm saying vocal racists like David Duke seem to favor him) because he's their hero fighting against excessive PC culture.  Sanchez (poster) is supporting Trump because he supports a shift away from the churchy GOP dominated by the Religious Right to a more nationalistic, American-first GOP that focuses less on divisive social issues, while Thomas From NJ - a literal Theocrat - is supporting the same man.

This is why Trump's "views" (to the extent he has a coherent set) aren't going to last with a unified bloc within the party.  And thank God.

While Trump fails to get the JCL vote and will fail to do so.

You don't understand economics. Which isn't surprising for a Trump supporter.

Wages are too high for American workers to compete in a global economy, and a living wage for American labourers will remain out of reach for as long as the United States continues to practice free trade.

This.

That's not bad news for him at all, considering that all the candidates you support usually get crushed.
He's moving to NC, sadly

Doesn't matter. We don't want the vote of his cult, no matter what the cost.
This is the guy who said Cruz would crush Trump and Clinton in a 3-way, and Cruz's favorability as of this weekend was 18%. Who even thinks like that?

They are a cult of death that want mass abortions everywhere.
