“I guess it depends on what you see as “conservative” but I think you are very wrong to put Trump in the same category with Bush.”
They are both big government progressives. Sure, they have different areas of focus, but they both want big government to work to enrich themselves.
Yes, Jeb wants an open border, while Trump wants to close the border, which I support. However, Trump also wants to close the border to trade with Tarrifs, which are disasterous. If Trump were a Conservative, he would bring manufacturing back by lowering corporate taxes and he would talk about eliminating the manufacturing killing regulations implemented by big government.
He doesn’t talk about that, because a smaller government is NOT part of his core.
Trump also supports wealth taxes (theft of investments) and he supported the Kelo decision. In fact, he used theh power of government to steal private property for himself....
There are many more examples, but I doubt you’d bother to listen.
How few get that on this supposedly "conservative" site.
Few seem to be able to define the word "conservative" also. I gave up on that label a long time ago. I call my self a lover of freedom, which is what it's all about IMO.
Meanwhile, Trump needs to learn a few things, but I think he is teachable. I believe he is the antithesis of Obama in that Trump loves America and wants to do what's best for America. (IMO Obama hates America.)
It's the fantasy of "free trade," which exists nowhere in the actual world that has been disastrous.

I've never even seen Trump even talk about Kelo. And the only example I've ever heard of Trump "stealing" property was in fact a situation where eminent domain was rejected, over a woman who had been blackmailing developers for years trying to get millions of dollars for her hovel after all the other property in the neighbor had already been sold. Trump wasn't even the one who initially bought it all, and he offered her 1 million dollars for something she paid something like 70 or 80 thousand dollars for. So this one lady is able to hold up development for an entire city just because she wanted an extreme price for her literally small patch of land.
