I'm sure I'll have my head handed to me for this.

But I'd like to know of those who are just solid conservatives, who won't abandon Trump in the face of liberals, but aren't bound by everything he says or does, either.

Really it'd be good to have a discussion about all that's transpired and what is right and wrong. I already set out a few points the other day, but I'm sure I could go on with more.

I like to say that I’m not a Trump fan, but I’m a Trump supporter. I don’t agree with everything he says or does, but he’s been the best we’ve had at actually trying to make things better. I’ll criticize him when I disagree but won’t throw him to the wolves either.

Our views, what are important to us does not live or die with President Trump. He blew it, accept it. I support Trump but it is time to move on.

Trump is not what is considered a traditional conservative...

He is more of a populist with conservative ideals.....

So I think your polling question is flawed...

I absolutely can’t stand politicians. That is why I support Trump. I don’t care what he says, I don’t even listen to what he says. He’s not a politician, he’s a citizen, and that’s what I support.

I'm not in either camp, so to speak. I'm open to the possibility that perhaps I've misjudged Trump, and that he may be having some Svengali-like sway over conservatives.

That said, I'm much closer to an "Ever Trump", than a "Never Trump", because generally, he embodies and sought to restore the principles on which this country was founded, and restore American exceptionalism and greatness.

Without clear and convincing evidence of actual criminal wrongdoing or evidence demonstrating that he is not a man of these convictions, I will be supportive of President Trump in the future.

Please name one politician...ever...that you agreed with 100% of the time.

You can’t. Impossible.

I'm a Trump supporter (which I guess makes me a domestic terrorist) but did not start off as one. It was during the last month of the 2016 campaign that I switched over to him after listening to one of his rallys. AdnI mean listen. I laid down and listened, not watched and listened. However, I do question some of his actions over the past 4 years.

It became apparent early on that nearly everyone he appointed to some post or another was against him. I thought being an intelligent man, he would have appointed more people to that were loyal to him and the Constitution. Sessions, Barr, Mathis, some of his Cabinet.

Other than that, I basically agreed with all his actions during his administration.

One can support the agenda without worshiping the man. Yet I realize that without the President’s particular personality attributes, the agenda never could have been articulated and brought to some degree of fruition.

I’m maybe 80% an Always Trumper or whatever you want to call it. The missing 20% is constructive criticism that some of his hires ended up being terrible, like Chris Wray or Jeff Sessions. My concern about Sessions was dismissed as “trust the plan.”

This isn’t religion guys. I still think Trump was a great president, but like any mortal man, there is room for improvement.

Best president ever! Hands down (and I started as a Cruz supporter). What I came to love most is that he was not them. That said, he is just a man. He is my president; Christ is my Savior.

To be clear,

What has transpired was not an election. They transformed our electoral process into a Trojan horse. We came prepared for an election, They came for war. We were not beat by voters from an opposition party, they are Enemies and traitors. This wasn't a coup against Trump, it's a coup against the country, US.

I’ve grown to like Donald more over the years and his policies where the first I can honestly say seemed to be designed to help the working class...but Donald’s biggest problem was his self control he seemed like when things would be going very well for him he’d tweet something about Joe Scarborough and his intern problems or joke about Arnold Schwarzenegger getting the Apprentice cancelled....he seemed like he would do things to intentionally mess up his Presidency...overall he did a heck of a job but man there’s things that make you wonder what was he thinking?

What if you still think he was stupid for the affair that led to his second marriage?

Really, your expectation is pretty stupid from that question. No one think Trump is God, but you appear to think many do.

Get real.
