He was a registered Republican for the entire 90s and publicly described himself as "conservative" in the early nineties. Perhaps you think that full-page ad he took out in the NYT calling for New York to reinstate the death penalty was a "stone cold liberal" position? How many "stone cold liberals" had concealed carry permits in NYC? In 1988, admittedly a little before the 90s, he attended the Republican National Convention as a guest of Bush. A recent bio of Bush says that one of his people suggested that he consider choosing Trump as his VP. I guess the Republicans wanted a "stone cold liberal" VP at the time. By 2000, he was writing about how much tougher we as a nation need to be on crime and on going after terrorists. I suppose those were "stone cold liberal" positions too.

You are correct. He never supported the Kelo decision and never took lands from hard working Americans. Trump makes Reagan look like a communist. I will go and buy a Trump banner for the front of my house so you won’t get mad at me and throw a tantrum.
Trump did those things in New York because Giuliani was mayor and he didn’t want any business problems. He was close friends to the Clintons, and sent them money for their campaigns.
And everybody was talking about being tougher on the terrorists in 2000, even Bill Clinton.
