It is these kinds of statements that tell me that support for Trump is not based on any kind of conservative philosophy, or even on opposition to "the establishment". For years, conservatives have complained about the GOP getting elected on promises to stand against the Dems and then going along with them once elected. We have maybe 2 or 3 GOP senators who have actually stayed true to their campaign promises and opposed the actions of the Democrat-GOPe alliance. And now those same "conservatives" who complained are tearing down Cruz because he did what he said he would do when elected.
As I have said all along, the Trumpkins have become a cult of personality, hell-bent on electing their own version of Obama. They care nothing about constitutional governance, conservative principles, reducing the size and scope of government, religious freedom, personal liberty, etc. - the just want to WIN. They will ignore, excuse or reinterpret anything Trump says that demonstrates his unconservative nature, and they will attack anyone who opposes Trump, regardless of how long and well that person has fought for conservative and constitutional principles.
“They will ignore, excuse or reinterpret anything Trump says that demonstrates his unconservative nature”
Unconservative stuff like:
Build a wall, secure the border and kick out the illegals
Stop all Muslim immigration
Lower taxes on the middle class and bring back the offshore investment money
Re-negotiate all US trade deals so America benefits
Cut the waste and fraud in govt agencies
Give me a break. LOL!
