I imagine Trump is kicking himself now for sliding into the crowded Republican race instead of the Democratic race ... Sure Trump is enjoying a double digit percentage lead in the Repub polls, but imagine his ratings (75%? 85%?) if he ran basically unopposed as a Democrat?
What a silly start to a silly hypothetical. Trump is polling between 25 and 40% in this crowded field. Why in the world would be "kicking himself"? Absurd.
As far as the question goes, it is equally absurd. Why not ask whether Cruz supporters would support him if he ran as a Democrat? It makes as much sense. The primary focus of Trump's campaign thus far has been to get rid of illegal "immigration", and also close the anchor baby loophole. This would be just as toxic for Trump in the Democratic primary, as Cruz' philosophy would be.
While many conservatives probably would vote for Trump in a Democratic primary, they would be part of the minority of Democratic primary voters.
As I said, silly, and pointless, hypothetical, more befitting of Fox News than a quality political site such as FR.

Thanks for reminding me about the anchor babies. Who in their right mind could imagine a Dem in Obama’s America running to revoke the ‘anchor baby madness’? Obama loves illegals and their anchor babies more than he loves US citizens. He has said, as in, come right out and said in so many words, that they have as much right to this country as citizens do.
And there are people who seem to imagine it is rational that a Dem candidate would get in Obama’s face on this issue. Also, that a Dem candidate would point out the devastation that Obama’s open borders/welcome mat/y’all come policy has wreaked on the American people.
This thread is beneath contempt.
