Or, an obama if you will. Why can’t people see that? He’s running a con game like he does with all his “deals”.

You misread who is being "conned" here.

Trump speaks off the cuff for an hour at a time. No teleprompter or prepared remarks, just a few notes on a single sheet of paper and what is in his head. That's the real Donald.

The GOP insiders are the ones being "conned." They are being told what they want to hear to get them on board. That there will be a "kinder, gentler" Trump in office.

Even Reagan had to make his famous "half a loaf" compromises to get things done. Trump is saying he, like Reagan, will work with those in power to get things done.

I’m not retreating an inch from where I was. But I also recognize this: There are some people who would have you so stand on principle that if you don’t get all that you’ve asked for from the legislature, why, you jump off the cliff with the flag flying. I have always figured that a half a loaf is better than none, and I know that in the democratic process you’re not going to always get everything you want. So, I think what they’ve misread is times in which I have compromised. -- Ronald Reagan

Which parts of that quote would describe Cruz, and which Trump?

I stand on principle...if you don’t get all that you’ve asked for from the legislature, why, you jump off the cliff with the flag flying. -- Ted Cruz

I have always figured that a half a loaf is better than none, and I know that in the democratic process you’re not going to always get everything you want. -- Donald Trump

And were are the ‘mark’, the American people.

As the size and color of the con, how do you think it will compare with Obama’s?

Yup, Trump de facto campaign manager is an old FORD guy. Can’t get anymore establishment than that.
