Yes. And Trump is RIGHT about trade. We don’t HAVE free trade. We have our trading “partners” overtaxing OUR goods, manipulating the currency, and screwing us in assorted other ways. Sure, we can induce businesses to relocate here by reducing taxes and regulations - which we should do anyway. But as long as we allow pirates like China to fleece our manufacturers, why should business come here? Also, NAFTA and TPP also contain hidden clauses that have NOTHING to do with trade per se, but are infringements on our national sovereignty. They are the camel’s nose of an EU type arrangement here.

Cruz might have been right on the issues, but he has a rancid personality, and offensive demeanor and is a scheming liar. He vastly underperformed Trump in the primaries for that reason. NOBODY in Washington likes him even his most conservative peers. He would NEVER even run neck and neck with Hillary.

I believe in the Constitution and limited government. But running on that issue solely would have appealed only to purists. The average American today, fortunately or not, is only concerned mainly with being safe from Islamist Terrorists, not being overrun by Mexican drug lords and criminals, corruption and abuse of power in Washington, the pitiful economy, job loss, and our erosion of prestige under a professorial idiot in the White House.

Trump addresses all those. He is an unalloyed PATRIOT who LOVES his country. Further, his list of prospective judges for SCOTUS indicates he is a constitutional originalist even though he may not elaborate on the subject, or perhaps even fully understand it.

Mark Levin is finally supporting him and that is good. But if he keeps qualifying that support, he may be relegated to the same political irrelevance as Glenn Beck.
