“Never Trumpers had always assured their former conservative colleagues that Trump would either fail or prove liberal.”
I am not nor have ever been a “never Trumper” but I initially believed that Trump would prove to be far more liberal than he made himself out to be.
I am ecstatic to have been proven wrong.

i.e. I completely agree with every letter of that post.

Ted Cruz seemed to be the only acceptable choice among the 15 hopefuls. As a former long-time NYS resident, I had heard about Trump primarily for divorces and girl friends. And was appalled when he announced - and was threatening to self-fund, steal the Republican nomination, and (I assumed) either lose to Hillary or be a RINO.When Trump had to cancel an appearance because of Democrat shenanigans, Cruz shot himself grievously in the foot. He got off his campaign plane and made a perfect statement condemning the abuse of the rights of the people to hear Trump which had been perpetrated - and immediately segued into a rant against Trump. Now, I understood Cruz’ point entirely - what Trump had said about Cruz and his father was, to understate the case, unkind.
But, as I instantly understood, the only correct thing to say immediately after condemning the shutting down of a Trump event was exactly nothing.
History. But after Trump cornered enough delegates to clinch the nomination, I switched to Trump on the basis of NeverHillary. He really clinched the deal by committing to a Federalist Society list of potential SCOTUS nominees.
