If you think Trump is the most Conservative you are badly out of touch.
Would a real Conservative say (just last week) that socialized medicine worked just fine in Canada and Scotland?
That he favored progressive income taxation?
That Planned Parenthood did some good things and continue with federal funding?
I could go on with other examples but I don’t have the time. Trump is a RINO and a liberal.
“If you think Trump is the most Conservative you are badly out of touch.”
Name your candidate,and I can name off points against him just like you did Trump, I promise. Any one of them. This “Trump is not a conservative” is getting tedious. Which candidate says what he is saying about immigration (immigration alone will destroy us; if a candidate is 99.9% pure conservative and doesn’t stop that, we are destroyed), about the armed forces, about trade, about exalting the United States? And above all, which candidate speaks with his boldness and bluntness?
Progressive taxation? We have always had that; it occurred under Ronald Reagan; is that a deal killer for you?
As for progressive taxation Trump seems open to the fair tax and flat tax concepts but prefers simplification as a first step reform. The current system is too damn complicated. I should not have to use a piece of computer software to figure out my taxes. Even then I’m not 100% sure my return is totally correct or truly minimizes my tax bill.
Cruz is certainly more conservative. But if Trump can build the wall, bring jobs back, strengthen the military, take out ISIS, and reduce or stop the growth of the debt, then I can give him a pass on a few non deal breaker issues I don’t agree with him on. I need to study where he is on the 2nd Amendment.
Held my nose and vote for McCain and Romney. Attention RNC: I will not vote GOPe this time and I live in a purple state.
