These chattering purists are frightened of losing their influence...
That phrase should make for an interesting thread...

Pundits live and die with their narrative. Lose your narrative and you’ve lost everything. Once you call Trump a racist, sexist etc., you have to carry that banner all the way to perdition. Reagan likewise produced thousands of such sorry souls.

I’ll take Trump or Cruz, but I prefer Cruz. Without Trump though, the presstitutes would already have shoved another RINO down our throats.

Trump is a lot of things, conservative is not one of them.
Cruz or bust.

For the last eight years the talk on this forum as been, “We lose because we don’t put a conservative on the ballot.”
Now the talk is to put a man who has been to the left of Christie for all but the last two years of his life, who only has angry going for him.
The Hilda-beast is more to the right than Trump.

Yet there are those whose demands for conservative purity ...Please. I'd be more impressed if Trump had ever showed a conservative tendency.

Vote Trump by all means, God knows we need more corporate welfare, taxation, abortion, gun control and open borders.

Is there a "pure" conservative candidate to be found? I do not believe there is and I don't know of anyone demanding one. However, a history of consistent conservative values are definitely a big plus. As for Trump - it would help if his knee-jerk responses didn't tend to align with his center-to-far-left "NYC-Values" that he was raised with. And those "NYC-values" should surprise no one -- it's all he's ever known. The better question is, "why would you think someone who has consistently displayed those "NYC-Values" is *suddenly* a conservative?"
Bear in mind, with trump's history...

Good post. While I recognize that Trump is not the perfect conservative, in my opinion, he represents the only chance we have to upset the apple cart in Washington and get the nation started on the right track.
We have been betrayed by politicians on both sides of the fence for decades now. Ronald Reagan was the only exception and he was also not a career politician. It's time to bring somebody in at the top from the outside.
