You’re right assuming that Trump is not a strict constitutionalist...based on his current positions and statements he’s more if a pragmatic conservative....
I like Cruz, he niether has the skillset or relationships to be an effective president. Additionally, he isn’t going to get the nomination.....
So unless you want the little rabid Chihuahua Rubio ( who is a total tool for the establishment) Trump is it...
Well that is where you and I differ I think Cruz can do it
