I’m happy with you slugging around in non-germane macro-economics.

You just need to look up from that ledger and see its a cliff Trump has you all marching toward. The nickels and dimes won’t matter so much at the end of a 500 foot drop.

The principal attack on Trump from the Republican business class is based on misunderstood—or deliberately misinterpreted—macro economics. If you do not want to defend them; that is one thing. But do you really think that analysis of policy effects on the GDP merely involve “nickels and dimes?”

Further with respect to your ex cathedra assertion that we are headed for a cliff, by backing the one Conservative candidate, who is willing to openly confront the fallacies that stifle most would be Conservative challenges to the current path to self-destruction.

You seem, at least, to be implying that it is a mistake to back the one candidate, in either party, to whom there are no sacred (politically correct) cows that are above challenge or criticism. The implication being that it is dangerous to rock the boat that is racing towards our destruction. Let me suggest that there is no way--none whatsoever--that you can actually justify your cliff metaphor under the relevant context to what we are discussing.

Donald Trump is a natural Conservative (see Metaphor For American Conservatism). He is now increasingly focused on how & why we have gone astray from our heritage in recent decades. That is not a path towards falling off a cliff; it is, rather, the safest way to avoid such a fate. Indeed, perhaps the last clear chance that we have to avoid such a fate.
