The list of Trump's liberal stances is long. But even if it weren't, two things alone ensure that I will never support the man.

One---in July he told "Morning Joe" that he's a Democrat on "some" things. That in itself should be enough to take him out of the running for every conservative, considering how much we rightfully complain about RINOs.

I'm supposed to disdain liberal/moderate Republicans, yet support a man who admits he's at least partially a Democrat at heart? Never happening.

Two---Terry McAuliffe, one of the lowest bottom-feeding, scumsucking, filthy, corrupt liberals of all time currently sits in my governor's mansion. Donald Trump contributed $25,000 to help put him there. Only a liberal Democrat would have done that.

I thought the question was for people that support Trump.

They're progressives who think they can rewrite the constitution and history at will.

I never forget.

Conservative ideas don't belong to republicans alone, it's a set of principles, beliefs and goals. I'm not going to throw out a possible good president because he only agrees with me 85% of the time instead of 100. Hell, I'd vote for a conservative democrat that agreed with me 85% of the time, if I could find one. Instead, you'll hold out for a guy that agree with you 100% and get only 2 votes, yours and theirs. Isn't Scarborough a RINO anyway though? Why are you watching his show if he doesn't agree with you 100%?

So do you have issues you disagree with Trump on, or are you basing it all on what he calls himself instead of what his actual positions are?

Agreed McAuliffe is a liberal democrat and the rest, and you are certainly entitle to deny support to Trump based on that alone. But for the rest of us, who and what Trump was in the past aren't as important as the positions he's taking now. His immigration and tax reform are enough in my book to overcome these, and if he changes after the election, well that's what most of politicians do anyway("Read my lips, no new taxes" "I'll have the most ethical administration in history", etc.). However, if we elect a bunch of like minded people who agree with most of our positions to congress, it's lot harder for him to renege on these promises later--but that will be really hard to do if all of them have to agree with you 100% on everything.
