If he did the scumbuckets in the #NeverTrump crowd wouldn't have anything to do with him just like Romney's dad worked so hard to defeat Goldwater.

They're not fooling anyone, they're part of the Globalist Fascist Elite and don't give a damn about anything excepting keeping their Ponzy scam going.

Well if Barack Obama isn’t our Jimmy Carter, who is.

Trump is more a deal negotiator than a dictator, and he’s apparently seeing a formula in America that needs such facilitator oversight to bring it to pass. He might be personally permissive about some things that he’d never agree make sense to have formal social support for — and might be more pro-life than many think.

Please, the elite of that day didn’t like Reagan either.

The GOP elites didn’t much care for Reagan either. All they care about is conning the base into voting for them so they can continue their Ponzy scam (as you so aptly put it).

The Never Trump crowd would be just as opposed to Ronald Reagan. Their allegiance to conservatism is only a pretense to cloak their motives. Does it make sense to uphold their supposedly “pure” conservatism by going whole-hog for a traitor?

If you’re pro-choice and pro-homo, then you’re probably NOT a conservative anyway. So go vote Libertarian. We don’t need a bunch of lukewarm fence-sitters diluting the discourse any more than it already is.

The root word of “conservative” is “conserve.” Look it up. Our goal is not to adapt to the times or change with every shift in the wind, but to CONSERVE those values that have stood the test of time. Those don’t include murdering our children and endorsing sexual depravity, no matter how “cool” those things have become.

I don’t really agree with the article, even though I don’t like the NeverTrump people. The support for either Trump or Cruz in the primary was from the Republican Party becoming too similar to the Democratic Party. Trump is conservative on most issues, except ones he thought he’d lose on, example not talking about Social Security reform. I don’t think we should act like we don’t care about conservatism just because we’re supporting Trump.

They are frauds. That they prefer Obama & Hillary Clinton to the choice of the GOP primary voting base is all the proof you need to know about their principles and conservatism.

We now have the “fiscal conservatism” of Paul Ryan that includes cutting vet pay while welfare queens get full ride. There is simply nothing principled or conservative about the chattering class “conservatives” against Trump.

Mitt Romneycare has shown he is just as much a progressive as Hillary Clinton. I’m surprised he hasn’t endorsed her yet.

Am I mistaken or did I hear that George H.W. Bush REJECTED the claim that he was supporting hilLIARy?

He said the reporter put words into his mouth and he was NOT saying who he was supporting at all.

I guess the media will be all over this.

The Trumpers of today would probably have voted for Reagan. They were all really from interest rates so high many lost houses because they couldnt refinance.

The Saudis were really hurting the average american because of the oil embargo and gas prices that were up probably 800%.

Doom and gloom was everywhere, long gaslines and a president(Carter)who seemed like a co-conspirator with whatever cosmic forces that wanted to squash America. Layoffs were up and no one was hiring.

Here is Carter’s Crisis of Confidence” speech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kakFDUeoJKM

Reagan pretty much brought back the country on his own, until others finally got on board.

Please tell me what’s left to “conserve?”

We gave up on capitalism long ago. Pro-fag judges have legitimized sodomy and infanticide. Genocidal whites have committed cultural suicide by bowing down to blacks and third-world immigrants.

Just what is left to “conserve?” Nothing. It is time for a pro-America nationalist government to torch the barn and smoke the rats out.

I get so sick of the academic “conservatives” in the forum bitching because Trump doesn’t give esoteric constitutional law lectures and cite from the Federalist papers.

And yes, I am a millennial.

“Am I mistaken or did I hear that George H.W. Bush REJECTED the claim that he was supporting hilLIARy?”

I searched `George H.W. Bush rejects the claim that he is supporting Hillary Clinton’ and found nothing. Maybe I should have put `rejects’ in capital letters.

Yes, I would love to see that the Bushes and Cruz, and the other oath-breakers have finally come to their senses.

But the Bushes are in the tank for Hitlery because she’s their girl and it was Jeb’s turn.
After spending millions of donors’ dollars Jebediah only got two delegates.
He paid for the job fair and square, but didn’t get it. It’s not supposed to work that way, ya know?

Unless you have a cite, something more than “some say,” you must be mistaken.
It looks like Bush I, like Bush II—both still have bad cases of `red a**’ over Trump taking Jeb’s job.
Like Ted Cruz they are apparently willing to try and throw the election to the `rats in the vain and deluded hope that they can commit this treachery & accomplish this result and there will still be a GOP in 2020.

He could’ve done much more if the GOP didn’t foist globalist HW Bush on him, thus allowing the CIA/Globalist co-op him.

Democrats own blacks and GOPe feel entitled to the conservative and defense vote but never support it. All the chessy RNC hawk patriotic showmanship during Bush I and Dole elections were very obvious in fakey

Message to everyone who supports TRUMP, the anti-Trumpers would have opposed Reagan too.
