“I think the majority, vast majority of us on this forum were not for Trump in the beginning. Some of us were down right mad at the man. Many of us were for Cruz and Walker, and we thought that Trump was in it as the spoiler, another Ross Perot, who in my mind was one of the most despicable human beings. He knew what he was doing, and by running he gave us Clinton.

In time, I grew to realize that Trump is more like a young Reagan than not. I learn from the man. I see him uniting people unlike at any time. Not just our side, but blue collars, minority, conservatives even some liberals.”

Spot on.

It was when Trump came out with his illegal immigration paper that I switched. Cruz didn’t have a clear stance on it, plus wanted to increase H1Bs without explaining why.

Then with each paper and strong ‘controversial’ statement, Trump surpassed the others. And took on the MSM and GOPe - and won.

What’s not to like?

Oh, and the Cruz supporters here seemed to be getting unhinged, nasty, just name-calling with out any rational things to say - so i didn’t want to be with that lot. But Cruz has been a class act. I’m hoping there’s some collaboration between him and Trump going on

You are right, that Trump reminds people of the young Reagan. The young Reagan was solidly a New Deal Democrat. I prefered the old Reagan conservative.
