“Trump brings the right message but he is the wrong messenger.”

No he isn’t. He is the exactly correct messenger at the precise time in history that we need him. And only someone with his brash personality could have broken through the obscene clutter of what looks to be 17 plus Pub candidates. What a zoo.

We are not in the business of electing a messenger we are in the business of obtaining political power by instituting a conservative in the office of president.

So long as we are trying to find a messenger Trump does splendidly but when we begin to think of governing Trump is wholly disqualified by virtue of his character flaws, his temperament, his undisciplined speech, his biography, his Association with bankruptcies, his financial support of leftists, his pro-abortion position, his self dentification for years with Democrats, his ignorance of history, and, above all his offputting, galactic ego.

We are still in the message stage and at this point, I agree, Trump is rendering a great service to the cause of true conservatism. But do not be deceived, the man is not a conservative and he is not fit to lead the conservative cause. It is the most dangerous tendency of any political movement to fall in love with a Messiah. Every man has flaws and Trump is a walking repository of the ego problems whom we dare not trust with the fate of the nation.

It is so seductive to fall in love with a candidate but so dangerous.
