Perry was a democrat the entire presidency of Ronald Reagan now he goes around telling people he’s a Reagan conservative.

Weakling answer. Here’s a good history of Perry’s Democrat days: http://www.texastribune.org/2011/07/14/rick-perry-democrat-years/
You can’t find a history like that for Trump. He’s at best a NY RINO. I don’t support the RINO in the primary. I’m a conservative.
