Trump’s party affiliation has changed over the years. Until 1987, he was a Democrat.[4] Then he was a Republican from 1987–99.[3] He then switched to the Reform Party from 1999–2001.[3] From 2001–09 he was a Democrat again,[3] and switched to the Republican Party again from 2009–11.[3] An independent from 2011–12, he returned to the Republican Party where he has remained from 2012–present.[3]
More important than his switching, is what was the catalyst that caused the switches. That is something we will likely not be able to know now, although could become very visible in a Trump POTUS.
I do like many of the things Trump says. It connects with many strong frustrations, but I am also able to recognize that following emotion and feelings can often result in not such good life decisions.
At this juncture, America must either have a sharp redirection back closer to the intent of the Constitution and the Founders and away from the cronyism and “dealing” with anti-American progressives that will destroy America’s important liberties and individual freedoms.
Both Trump and Cruz will kick some of the correct targets. Trump, I am afraid will just change the faces of the cronyism and continuing “dealing” with the progressives. Cruz will de-power the cronies and progressives from top to bottom.
Which is right, right now? I say Cruz.
