Re: “Trump's blunt message of American exceptionalism and his distance from the political establishment continue to strike a chord with grassroots conservatives, who are fed up with the status quo in Washington.”

I think that's only partly true.

In fact, I think Trump's candidacy will fracture the Conservative coalition as deeply as it fractures the Republican Party.

I came of age in the 1960’s. My heroes were Barry Goldwater, William F. Buckley, and Milton Friedman.

Trump is not a man of political principle.

He is just a man of high intelligence, high energy, high self-confidence, and impulse.

I can't support him for president.

“I can’t support him for president.”

It’s looking more and more every day that he’s going to be the nominee for the Republican party.

If you and all the other “conservatives” decide to put your money where your mouth is and stay home, you’ll know where the blame lies if the dem’s win in November.
