I care more about closing the border and getting rid of the illegals than anything else.

That's Trump's market. He'll do it by growing government. The real fight is shrinking government.

Again I'll ask you or any FReepr reading this, what has Trump done, not said or mentioned, but done about shrinking government down?

No, the real fight is preserving our culture and our country by getting our borders under control and getting rid of the law breakers illegally here. In my view that is the most important issue followed by reducing government size, cost and scope. Trump has the debts position on immigration and he has talked about cutting regulation. He also spoke of eliminating entire departments and agencies of the federal government. He even named a couple. He is the only candidate this cycle I have heard that from. Your “question” strikes me as intentionally obtuse. You know that Trump has never been in government so he has not been in a position to do anything to make government smaller. On the other hand, Trump has not been in a position to do anything to make it bigger either, unlike the public office holders who are running. Trump, Carson and Fiorina are the only republican candidates who can truthfully say they had no hand in growing government, perhaps that accounts for their status as the three highest polling republican candidates right now.

Trump has said he wants to gut worthless Gov. departments like EPA and Education. It’s a beginning...
