Not sure what you mean by “destroying me”.
If conservatives are so insignificant, then why does it matter to you if they don’t vote for Trump? If Trump needs conservatives, why is that different than Cruz needing Trump supporters? Since Cruz is a conservative, why not encourage everyone to get behind Cruz instead of stumping for a leftist like Trump?
If you like Reagan, why not like Cruz, who is the closest to Reagan that is running for President?
How can we remain a Constitutional Republic by electing Trump who has absolutely no understanding of the Constitution and actively works against it?
What do you mean by “religions puritan”?
There is a difference between people who call themselves conservatives and people who actually are conservative. Just because some people lie to get elected, that’s no excuse to reject conservatism and vote for a leftist like Trump.
Actually, it is Trump supporters that don’t care what Trump is going to do in office. They often express the idea that just having Trump in office will make their lives happy and America great again. When it is pointed out that most of Trump’s policies are identical to Hillary Clinton’s, that Trump will further destroy the economy, and that Trump will put leftists on the bench, they simply ignore it. After the election they will simply unplug from politics contented that “they are winners”.
Trump may make it impossible for anyone but a leftist to ever be elected again. With his single payer healthcare system in place and a court packed with leftists, the country will have no choice but to lurch left. The only thing Trump is going to lead is further decline of America.
What Trump supporters don’t see is that Trump is part of the establishment. He spent his life and money funding most of them. He has given what they want to “make deals”. Trump is an insider.
Only a conservative can “shatter the corrupt” because the opposite of corruption is conservatism. Trump’s leftism cannot shatter corruption, instead Trump will embrace it. Like Trump embraces the crony capitalism (ie corruption) of ethanol subsidies so much as to make them even higher than Obama ever did, all so Trump could get some votes.
Our kids and grand kids will live in poverty and violence, because that is the state of places that don’t have conservatism.
"How can we remain a Constitutional republic by electing Trump who has absolutely no understanding of the Constitution"
I don't get it. It's been eye opening (and quite sad) to see FReeper's toss aside conservative principles so easily.
Another Freeper expressed best:
"Apparently, I don't have as much in common with the people here as I thought I did".
Sums it up.
