The word “conservative” can be used in a number of ways.
I’m looking for candidates who are constitutionalists, rooted in a judeo-christian world view.

Imagine giving this advice to a Republican presidential candidate: What if you stopped calling yourself a conservative and instead just promised to make America great again?
What if you dropped all this leftover 19th-century piety about the free market and promised to fight the elites who were selling out American jobs?
What if you just stopped talking about reforming Medicare and Social Security and instead said that the elites were failing to deliver better healthcare at a reasonable price?
What if, instead of vainly talking about restoring the place of religion in society something that appeals only to a narrow slice of Middle America. You simply promised to restore the Middle American core, the economic and cultural losers of globalization to their rightful place in America?
What if you said you would re store them as the chief clients of the American state under your watch, being mindful of their interests when regulating the economy or negotiating trade deals?

“I wish Ted Cruz no ill will whatsoever—I agree with much of what he says and think he would make a fine Attorney General. But POTUS? While I believe that it’s possible he could win the Republican nomination, I don’t for a minute believe that he could garner enough votes to win a national general election.”
Soooooo sick of this lie. The Trumpettes LOVE to talk about polls, and how well their man is doing in the PRIMARY polls. Fine. Let’s talk about polls.
RCP Averages:
Trump vs Clinton - +4.7 CLINTON
Cruz vs Clinton - +0.2 CRUZ
Now - why do we keep hearing this LIE about Cruz being unable to win a general election and Trump being able to?
Trump. Will. Lose.
Someone like me, IMO.
Here’s a yardstick you might be interested in.
I dislike Cruz now. He is absolutely unfair and horrible. He is NOT a good Christian. He’s not even fair or honest. The lies he tells are so bald faced. He is fully owned and will not be able to do a thing with his precious “conservative principles” which don’t include honesty.
I regret my donations.
Trump’s definition of a Conservative when he was interviewed....
“I think it’s a person that doesn’t want to take overly risks....a person that wants to, in terms of government I’m talking about, a person that wants to conserve.”
BTW...
Alert!!!!....Trump speaking from podium today....again sending out signals he made a pledge and the Rep. Party needs to get their act together or he’ll go third party.....
Trump needs to be ignored...let the creep go third party!
