I look at the totality of things Trump has supported and his views over the years, not just the last year when he decided to run for President. The man has no discernable core values. I am a retired AF officer (24 years) who has been a rock-solid conservative my entire life. I can see through Donald Trump like a sheet of glass. The man is not a conservative, nor has he ever been.

You might be surprised to know that I am also extremely angry with the GOP establishment's efforts to upset Donald Trump's chances for the nomination. Despite my personal dislike for Trump, I dislike the GOPe attempts to fiddle with the will of the people even more. As for the GOPe now supporting Cruz in some fashion, I agree that the GOPe's motives are to unseat Trump and they (GOPe) would probably rather have Hillary as President than either Trump or Cruz. Personally, I would hope (may be hoping against hope) that Cruz will be our next President. If Rubio would give up his delegates, and Kasich would drop and give up his delegates, I am confident Cruz would get a majority of those and be more competitive. But both Rubio and Kasich are working with the GOPe to ensure a contested convention. Rubio has no other reason to hold on to his delegates and Kasich knows he doesn't have a snowballs chance at the nomination.

I see all the mud flying about Cruz - I just don't buy into it because I have been watching Cruz closely for a long time and, if nothing else, believe he understands and supports the Constitution I served to protect more so than any other Candidate. But the great thing about this country is we are free to support whomever we want and I'm ok with that.
