Reagan spent 20 years supporting strong conservative positions, including even when he was still a Democrat.
Trump spent a few months supporting strong conservative positions, once he began floating the idea of running for President as a Republican.
If you HONESTLY can't see the difference between those two, you have business voting.

Trump evolved again this week to support Roe v Wade. Walking back his quote on punishing the mother, he said "At this moment, the laws are set. And I think we have to leave it that way."
That tells you which kind of SCOTUS appointments he is willing to make.
Winning is his core belief. The pro-life movement could take a lesson or two from him I think.
Winning is easy if you are willing to change teams in the middle of the game.
I do see a difference between Trump and Reagan, but I also see a difference between a few months and five years in Trump’s case. Further, I don’t see much change in abortion in America because of either Reagan or Clinton. It’s not an issue that either of them could do much about.
Obama is one of the most shockingly evil people in our country’s history, and he added a malicious requirement for the Little Sisters of the Poor to cover abortion drugs and birth control pills for nuns. That was insulting and offensive, by intent, but I’m guessing that it wouldn’t lead to any more dead babies even if the nuns caved to the petty tyrant.
The bottom line: The president just isn’t that important when it comes to abortion, other than judicial nominations, which have changed almost nothing on abortion in 50 years. Reagan and both Bush presidents didn’t change Roe v. Wade. Getting things exactly right on abortion is not going to be the issue on which I decide my vote this year.

Losing is much easier.
Well, that’s the point with wanting to make sure we get someone in there that will put conservative judges on SCOTUS. I am supporting Trump, and he is saying he will do it. If he indicates he won’t put pro-life judges on, I won’t be able to support him, but I am trusting him.
Meanwhile Hellary is firm that the unborn do not have constitutional rights. She gets a pass from the LSM.
Didn’t Trump say he will pick from a list of 7-10 candidates for the SCOTUS and that the Heritage Foundation would be consulted in the process for those who make the list?
This isn’t a matter of “core beliefs.”
It’s a matter of having the insufferable Chris Matthews, the manic pro-abortion “Catholic” nattering in your ear and demanding an answer to an utterly stupid question.
The questions Matthews was yammering about have absolutely nothing to do with the powers of the President.
None of this matters, and it will be forgotten by everyone but pro-abortion scum like Matthews in a matter of days.
And Roger Stone first met Trump when Trump and his dad were raising money for Reagan.
When Trump’s utter failure in the Matthews interview fades a bit (after doing its damage among voters), Trump will supply a new failure. It’s what he does.
The man doesn’t know enough, at 70 (nearly) he’s too old to learn, so he just wings it. The result? One disaster soundbite after the other and a campaign floundering in retractions and corrections.
Trump gave the answer liberal democrats accuse republicans of!! It is no wonder that when he was placed under stress his go to answer was what he thinks republicans believe!!!As a liberal democrat!!!
Not knowing what the nuclear triad is was truly shocking!!!!
But people know he is the ONLY candidate who is opposed to the Mexican/Muslim invasion. So they don’t care about Chris Matthews and his fellow gaffe-hunters.
Do you have any evidence that Trump is the father of an aborted child?
Reagan had been a republican for sixteen years and a two term republican Gov. of California when he ran for President, Hardly comparable to Trump who few years ago was spewing great compliments for the present occupant!!!
