No thanks. Trump is the post-conservative candidate and this has become a post-conservative website. I won't ride any big government Trump train.

I'll vote for him, because he's running against Hillary, which is the only reason any actual conservative will vote for him.

The post-conservatives will just love voting for a guy who admires the Chinese crackdown on protestors at Tiannenmen. The universal health care candidate. The big fan of Putin's oligarchy. The guy who wants to corral an out-of-control press that criticizes him too much. The Kelo decision supporter.

They used to be conservatives, now they're Trump. A political ideology and a party and a person, all in one.

There will still be some conservatives after Trump. We'll be picking up the pieces.

You don’t get it, none of you in that purist “we’re the only real conservatives” group get it.

There is no choice, none and there hasn’t been for years. You think poor Ted Cruz was turned down because Trump was a meanie but the truth is, Cruz is part of the bought-and-paid-for establishment. And he would never, ever, be able to put up a decent fight against Hillary. He even can’t win most primaries.

The only true insiders in this race are Dr. Carson and Trump. Dr. Carson has the intelligence and stately demeanor but couldn’t survive in a pool of sharks, especially Cruz. All other candidates are part of the problem.

So you are left with either Trump or Hillary end of story. You can lecture us on how we’ve betrayed the cause but it’s people like you who would surrender to Washington without a fight because you couldn’t find the perfect candidate who endanger the rest of us.

We’re not “post-conservatives” we’re realistic conservatives who want to take our country back. And Donald Trump is our only chance.

FR is not post-conservative website. That's a smear.

So sorry your pet conservative didn't win, and that your butthurt is so pronounced, but that's no reason for you to disparage this community or its host and leader.

That was a totally gratuitous insult.

Vote Trump
