To be honest with you, I haven’t a clue how a true conservative supports him in the first place. His first reaction to everything is straight from the liberal mindset.

Well, at least up to now. I am having a super tough time trying to figure which oval to fill in next week. It is becoming a lesser-of-two-evils choice. Or is that a Hobsin’s choice?

If he wins, which is what it’s looking like, liberals will quickly start referring to him and his policies as conservative. That will be the end of true conservatism.

Well, we elected a whole fleet of “conservatives” in 2012, how well has that worked out? Cruz is one of them...

It’s not about ideology. It is about the issues and solutions Trump has put forth. I care about putting an actual outsider (not Cruz who only became an outsider 4 years ago) and a businessman who has a track record of actual accomplishment in the White House. I’ve already voted for Trump here in blue-state IL and he won. I would urge you to do the same.

“To be honest with you, I haven’t a clue how a true conservative supports him in the first place.”

Our Republic is lying in the gutter bleeding from the aorta.

Trump is the only one who even admits this, much less promises to stop the bleeding.

When a patient has arterial bleeding, that’s the first thing you address. The patient may also have hepatitis, bad breath, and the heartbreak of psoriasis, but all that means nothing if you don’t get the arterial bleeding under control.

We must first save our republic; then we can take on the less immediate problems.

That is how a thinking conservative can support Trump. Only he will keep our republic alive, because only he is more concerned with that than with his own career and wealth.

Please explain if you will just what a true conservative is?

I’ve heard all the following people claim they are true conservatives, and some even Rush and Levin have called true conservatives. But I find none of them to be someone I would want to hold the same views on life with.

1. Jeb Bush
2. George Bush
3. Lindsey Graham
4. John McCain
5. Paul Ryan
6. Mitt Romney
7. John Boehner
8. Mitch McConnell
9. Most republican senate members.
10. Most republican house members.
11. Bush I
12. Karl Rove
13, Ted sCruz
14. Marco Rubio aka foam boy male dancer.
15. Kasich

the list goes on and on, my point is anyone who claims they are a “conservative” and is a public office holder is not telling the truth.

So if these people are conservatives then I must admit, I am not a conservative.
