Well Trumps life was not appealing to me from the get go. His NYCity roots and manner of how he conducted business was all to well known....he’s been playing “politics” a very long time though he claims on one hand he’s not political while on the other he’s bought off and smooged with them throughout his life. ...and admits he is one of them.
I don’t consider Trump even close to Conservative....but it’s played for her to claim as much. I don’t think he cares either way when it came to determining which party he would play from when he decided to run.....he simply took the side that was most favorable to give him the chance...and the Demorats didn;t want him...they know him well.
So? In order to succeed, one MUST negotiate. At the high level of business where Trump has found success, a lot of that negotiation is with politicians--people who have power to utterly destroy someone who doesn't play by THEIR rules.
The fact that Trump was able to manage the greedy politicians well enough to be able to build a successful business empire is, to me, a plus in his book. This shows that he has the skills to negotiate with anyone--including those who would destroy us, those that Obama bows and apologizes to as if showing weakness will soften them towards us.

He understands economics: that is conservative. He understands the dangers of unchecked illegal immigration: another conservative view. He understands that kumbaya won't bring world peace: yet another conservative view. Etc.
If your view of a perfect "conservative" is someone who speaks 100% conservative moral values but has no financial savvy and no record of being able to stand up to liberal bullies, then so be it. People who won't vote unless it's for a "perfect" conservative gave us Obama. Since there are no perfect human beings, I'm going for the tough guy who has proven that he can stand up for himself and get things done.
Remember, Cruz is just another talkative lawyer without a history of accomplishment.
