People need to step back a little about Trump. He is currently riding a wave of discontentment with the establishment ( both parties in my opinion) and I am all for him on this.
He has started development of his positions on immigration and taxes and these positions will be fine tuned as time goes on. In my view he is being slow to deliver positions because people are happy with him now. Vagueness always sells better than the fine print. So I would say we should give him some time.
My understanding as to his tax position now is that he is for drastic reductions in the rates of all taxes but he also will keep a graduated income tax so that the richer pay a higher rate. While I do not agree with this I like the fact that his top rate is 15 % and his bottom rate is 1 %. One thing about this is that even the poor pay. This is something I have long advocated, as everyone should be involved in the tax game. Now, if the richest end up paying 15% that should not upset any conservatives. (Yeah, it is not a flat tax, something Trump looked at a few years ago.) (and yes, he changes his mind. Well guess what, the congress has to weigh in on this tax proposal before we get it. So I would not hold my breath over any proposal at this time.
To me it is enough that Trump has some ideas for a better tax system. He is also for cutting the size of government. Why not live with these ideas a while and cut him some slack. (Unless the real plan is to end the Trump phenomena so that some Real conservative can get back in—Is that what this is?)

And just who would that “real conservative” be that’s going to “get back in?”
Cruz is in, who else is there in the batting cage?
