However, like most GOPe, he does not see immigration as a problem.

Or not as much of a problem as Trump does. They figure that the problem can be contained or controlled, but I'm not sure they're all riding the "cheap labor express."

Debate here tends to get personal both ways. Lots of snide attacks by anti-Trumpers on what they think the "typical Trump supporter" is like. But also, an unwillingness by pro-Trumpers to consider legitimate arguments against their candidate.

You don't have to be elite or Establishment to wonder if Trump isn't going to leave Republicans or conservatives holding the bag in the end.

"Debate here tends to get personal both ways."

You are right. I try to avoid that. You, I notice, do the same.

Trump is all over the map on issues he doesn't care about, and on issues he does care about, he is in the end a deal-maker, not an ideologue. So, its reasonable to question if he is the right guy for the job, question if we really know what he'll do (after he builds the fence...)

We already know we'll be hung out to dry by the usual suspects, though. Cruz is the only one I really trust to do what he says he'll do, he is in my opinion the best candidate we've had in decades. But he can't get any traction, people dismiss him or don't even notice him. Not people here at FR, we're well aware of him and he has a lot of support here, even among people who support Trump for example. But among people who are not engaged, they hardly know who he is.

He'll have to just soldier on.
