“Still waiting for John McCain and Mittens to “turn right.” It never happened...yet I don’t recall any #NeverMcCain or #NeverMittens folks complaining like now.”

Wealthy Cruz Donor Pours Millions Into Clinton Campaign

Well, well, well.... what were you saying??
There were people here on FR that “said” they would not vote for Romney.
They used his past leftist views as the reason not to vote for him.
And I will have to say in a lot of his past views, Trump very much resembles Romney.
But Trump does seem to be to the right of Romney now.
We can’t have Hillary.

Wow. Birds of a feather.
So what was that you were saying?
Al Sharpton is not a legislator.
Fascinating take - considering he attacked conservatives and what we stand for straight out of the gate.
Please stop this nonsense. I accept he won the nomination - it's reality - but please stop telling us we didn't hear him say what he has been saying the whole time and insulting the intelligence of conservatives, of which there are apparently far fewer of us than their used to be.
That is embarrassingly nonsensical - so your arugment is that he's been screwing us over his whole life but now we can trust he'll do the right thing (even though he hasn't proposed doing the right thing)? He helped get us Obamacare by supporting Pelosi and Reid becoming in charge of the Congress. He supported John Kerry over Bush...your argument falls a bit flat that he was just trying to curry favor with those in power for his business because he was actively working against those that were in power if they were conservatives.
Trump won’t bail out Puerto Rico, But Paul Ryan, his boss Cesar Conda & Congress will! [snip]How often are these Rino globalists going to side with the left??? SELL OUTS: Paul Ryan, National Review Call For Puerto Rico Bailout For Hedge Fund Masters & Lobbyist Pals Rep. Luis Gutierrez Delivers Impassioned Speech Calling For Puerto Rico Aid
Puerto Rico is part of the United States - while a bailout may be bad policy, it wouldn't be an example of "globalism" - you are just throwing out terms to make a nonexistent point and defend of the indefensible that don't even fit the example. You won. You can stop trying to propagandize...it's already worked...nothing can be done about it now. Stop poking conservatives with the stick to rub in the fact there aren't as many of us any more and we were defeated. We know.
In other words, he isn't a "principled conservative" that Rush goes on and on about. All those "principled conservative" Republicans have driven the country off a cliff. I'll take Trump's practically applied conservatism any day over those other guys conservative rhetoric which is all talk and no action.
I eventually was able to sell out and left when I could but until that time I had my and my employees livelihoods to consider. I never had to give to Nancy Pelosi though. I have always wondered why I never got shook down by them.
So you “pure conservatives” stand for open borders, illegals criminals running amuck, protecting terrorists, allowing free entry of Muslim “refugees,” doing away with guns for law-abiding citizens, keeping Common Core and the education centralized in Washington, elevating the criminals over the police, keeping the military increasingly antiquated and weak, refusing to cut regulations strangling businesses, raising corporate taxes to chase companies overseas, maintaining Obamacare, increasing H1B visas even when hurting American workers, and allowing foreign nations to take advantage of us? Interesting, because these are the positions that Trump has been attacking hard for the last 10 months, the one you say are attacks on all that conservatives stand for.
Perhaps you mean that doing away with the current eminent domain laws is the number one thing that you stand for, because that’s the only arguably conservative position I remember him attacking (and then only after he was attacked on that front), unless you want to claim that attacking unfair trade deals where we get screwed is somehow fundamentally attacking what conservatives stand for. Or perhaps you are freaking out that he wants rape and incest exceptions from an abortion ban—but that definition would mean that Reagan wasn’t a “conservative” either, since he was for the same exceptions.
If you haven’t read it yet, you really should learn more about Trump’s past positions (beyond just the anti-Trump propaganda) by reading this repost that JimRob put up:

[A FReeper discussion on the history of Trump’s conservative pro-America positions]
If you don’t think these (mostly) long-term positions of Trump’s are conservative, then what in the world is your definition of conservative?
I agree.
Republican Wildcat my butt. You’re just another GOPe enabler.
Donald Trump is the only candidate shedding light on the corruption of this STINKING party!
So, go vote for HIllary. She’s another enabler. That’s the choice.
You said real conservatives don’t send checks to liberal democrats.
Do YOU realize how corrupt politics has become in this country?
You have to grease the wheels in this country to get a building permit.
Would you rather have someone who doesn’t say that yes, he did it, and he bought politicians and it HAS to be changed, or more of the same?
Real businessmen buy whatever it is they need for their business to succeed - and that includes legislators.
Exactly. A pragmatic businessman doing business with politicians who run a rigged system is not the problem - the corrupt politicians who run that rigged system are.
A hypocritical sophist like Mark Levin refuses to countenance this obvious distinction.
Donald Trump has had first-hand, front-row experience with just how corrupt our political establishment is.
