Politicians change their spots all the time. Reagan was a liberal Democrat who took more than 10 years to change his views. Of course there are ideologues like Pelosi and Waxman, whose vuiews are the same as they were forty years ago.
Politicians going from support of hardcore liberals to Rightwing presidential candidates are not to be trusted. Ronald Reagan was never close to a radical lib as a democrat and is famously quoted as saying that the Democrat Party left him...that was due to their encroaching liberalism.
Your opinion and vote is your own for whatever reasons you choose. But can you honestly say that you actually “trust” a pol that swung so far? Especially when his record since in office to date shows he’s no solid conservative?
An open border supporting speech IN MEXICO?
Trying to force a dangerous drug that has resulted in serious adverse reactions on teen girls over parental wishes?
Allowing dangerous Mexican trucks/drivers on American highways?
I cannot support that kind of man.

Democrat, yes. Liberal? I don't think so. Not by a long stretch.
