Trump has already started speaking about his conservative positions.... a year and a half later he would announce his run for office.
This level of hatred was NOT because Trump had money - it was because he was conservative.
You’d have to define the term loosely for him to qualify. He’s not a populist either, nor a protectionist. His brand of conservatism is plowing through uncharted waters. He wants tax cuts and he’s pro-life. But he also rejects NAFTA, which was the work product of Reagan through Clinton, and he’s tough on China, which nobody has ever been, and back in the day he wanted a one-time ‘wealth tax’ to pay off the national debt.
