Quick Note – It’s Not the “Base” Opposing Donald Trump
Conservative Treehouse ^ | May 6, 2016 | Sundance

Just want to point out something simple, yet seemingly getting lost in the chatter.

It is not the “conservative base”, the grassroots or the average Joe or Jane from Main Street USA who are currently digging in their opposition to Donald Trump. The base, the middle class, is entirely behind Trump.

Or maybe it’s people who see Donald Trump turning away from all his previously held positions. Big left turn.

IMHO, the elite republicans have always been more elitist than they have been republican, let alone conservative. This is why they despised Palin and Reagan so thoroughly.

It’s split. Here in Arizona there is a large conservative base who really hates Trump and thought that Cruz walked on water. It’s like every other year. People are scared of the unknown. I, on the other hand, embrace it! Just ready to buckle my seat belt and go for the ride!

The race is just starting folks-—It is the end of the beginning—and now starts the hardest part—the general election. Anything can and will happen. Its going to get rough folks—dirty, lies, emotional, hate mongering and slimmy. Trump will have protests paid for by Soros and Hillary, he will face false stories—SNL funny skits of “humor” even movies and TV shows trying to trash Trump. We must be confident that Donald with weather these storms—support him when times are the worst! What should he do? Get his cabinate picks vetted and ready—he will have only 100 days to start things up—He needs to get that wall planned and new Healthcare ready to replace Obama’s mess. Call it Trumpcare if you must—but it must be better, cheaper and focused.
