“That being said, you shouldn’t ignore the signs that show us he’s NOT a strong conservative.”

There not just signs, he has flatly said the conservatives will have to get over it on issues like health care i.e. replace Ocare but with something that is not just everyone for themselves. I suspect he feels the same on other issues. Has anyone heard about 2A yet? That said, I like what he is doing. He has smoked out the DC crowd. Note that Cruz is with him on that 100%. Taking back the country begins with taking back this party, even if we have to take it back just 50% for the time being. Letting it back into the clutches of the Bush and DC crowd again is a death nell for the country. Face it, we are not going to get any one candidate who goes for everyone of our issues. Mine are immigration, 2A, Ocare, trade, military, fags and the welfare state. I know Trump is with me on 5 and a half of these so I am not all in for him yet. Cruz is right there with him.

I agree with your post.

I just can't get on the Trump train at this point. I like what he's done for the race, just don't trust the guy.

I still hope Cruz will be able to take off, even though I think his immigration stance should be stronger.

That is pure BS. Cruz doesn’t agree with Trump 100%. What Cruz agrees with Trump about is taking on the establishment and his views on things like immigration (since Trump copied Cruz on those).

Cruz disagreed with him on McCain (until Trump flip-flopped on it) and Cruz has stark policy differences from Trump on other issues as well. He just isn’t going to bad mouth Trump.

Then there was Trump's visit to "Morning Joe" last week, where he stated he identifies with some things as a Democrat. That's almost identical to what he said years ago---"I identify as a Democrat." When he was REGISTERED as one.

The guy is telling us straight out that he's a Democrat, and conservatives refuse to listen. They're still willing to cast a vote for him. Why?
