Their commitment to Trump is stronger than their commitment to conservatism, truth, and facts. They've become more loyal to him than loyal to the conservative ideas they've held for many years. They don't care what he's done to harm conservatives in the past, or what he's paid for in opposition to conservatives in recent years, or what praise and funding he's given to Liberals; it's incredible, really. Could Hillary pull off the same con job? Nope. But they were on the same wavelength. He praised her and said she'd make a great president. He praised Obama many times. He trashed conservatives many more times. Now, he's suddenly the best man to represent us. And anyone who knows Trump's history and reveals it is not up to Trump's conservative standards! If we let this lying closet Liberal takeover, then we'll lose to whomever the Democrats run because most Americans won't be bamboozled by an ersatz conservative. Here is a notice to his supporters, most Republicans cannot stand Trump. Most Independents cannot stand Trump. And his "former" Democrats cannot stand him now that he's betrayed them (we'll be next if we give him the chance).

And Trump, in my opinion, intends to set conservatism back because he's not about it and conservatism is not about him. Does anyone believe Trump is for smaller government? He's only about him and he's using conservatism as long as it's situationally to his benefit. This is what he now calls "common sense conservatism," a term he'll use to say conservatism is whatever Donald Trump says it is. And his followers won't care that what they said they believed for 40 years isn't what Trump says conservatism is. They'll go with their false prophet. It's a sad day for conservatism when a man with so little integrity can be taken seriously.

...most Republicans cannot stand Trump. .....And his “former” Democrats cannot stand him now that he’s betrayed them (we’ll be next if we give him the chance). ...

Whatever, the republicans and democrats have joined forces to ignore the best interests of the Citizens.

Most republicans have stopped being conservative a long time ago.

Trumps platform is gaining support of conservatives : Build the wall, bring back jobs, throw out 0bamacare, take care of our vets, serve the Citizens, throw out the lobbyists, Pro-life from inception to natural birth

“Here is a notice to his supporters, most Republicans cannot stand Trump. Most Independents cannot stand Trump. And his “former” Democrats cannot stand him ... “

Here’s my brief response to your screed. If so many Republicans, Independents and “former” Democrats cannot stand him, why are they voting for him?

What do you want—another establishment GOP loser stiff?

Let’s not bicker and argue over who killed `conservatism’.
Let’s re-define conservatism. With Trump we can pick up blue-collars, black Americans, and any `Hispanics’ who spurn the term Hispanic for plain “American” ... and even gays who appreciate that they are abnormal to the rest of us and agree to not use their private lives as political and legal hammer. Then we can begin reversing the excesses of the last 8 years. We can move forward in crushing Obama, Pelosi, Reid and Clinton’s party of grievance politics.

Or we can lose again and the establishment GOP will die like a rabid, whinging, yellow cur. It’s a real Hobson’s choice, ain’t it?

Trump is all about Trump. The people who follow him like zombies are no different than those who followed the cult of Obama. They want a Savior, and cannot abide any evidence to the contrary. Not unlike the Jim Jones cult. I agree - he is not a conservative and neither are his followers or they wouldn’t be able to ignore his lack of coherent and consistent principles.
