No, you misunderstand me completely. If Trump were to make it to the final round, I would watch him with the wariest eye of all. In fact, I would almost EXPECT him to do things that I don't like. But this is the devil's choice that all real Americans face: there IS NO REAL CONSERVATIVE IN THE RACE. Cruz is probably the closest thing to that. I'll say it again - I respect the man and I'll be happy if he wins. But to put my full faith in Cruz that he'll be everything I've ever wanted in a president would be beyond foolish. He wouldn't have gotten this far with GOP support if he were the conservative we all need. If Cruz follows through with HALF of his stated beliefs I will be happy, because all GOP candidates for the last 20 + years have followed through with damn near ZERO conservative ideas. Maybe Cruz will follow through with 100%. I don't dare to hope.

The point with Trump is that he will be a complete wildcard. He will be a wildcard as to whether he does conservative things, but he will also be a wildcard as to whether he does things that the Marxists that run our government want. That is the core of his appeal - he appears to be outside of the game, and I will take that over yet another GOP drone any day. And don't get freaked that I may be implying Cruz is a drone. I hope he isn't.

Well, at least we know Trump was a liberal before he’s running as a conservative ... not great but better than most of the GOP “professional politicians” (presidential candidates since 1990; most GOP members of the House and Senate; most on last week’s “debate” stages) who are conservative until they win an election, then they vote and act very much like “liberals”/”progressives”.
