I'm glad to see them both on board.
Pray for tonight, let's hope the American public sees the truth about Hillary. Let's hope the so called conservative skeptics get over themselves, and they quit bashing Trump soon.
The author is correct about how good a candidate Trump is, I think he may be the most conservative nominee we've had since Reagan.
I tell my friends to be unapologetically for Trump.
I think the Bush family, the Erickson clan, the Beck group, the National Review crowd, and the Bill Crystal group have all outed themselves as democrats or demagogues...one or the other or both.
I expect they’ll be eating sour grapes the remainder of the normal lives and then on into eternity. :>)

I meant charging me 14% on my benefits package.
At the top of the list would be Trump’s pledge to reduce immigration (including legal immigration) and not grant citizenship to illegal aliens. Both of those are necessary to preserve a demographic fighting chance for conservatism going forward.
I agree. I just read on Breitbart the FBI says the US had over 7,000 terrorist incidents last year and most were in border states.
That’s been hidden from us. I should post that article.
“Sums it all up in a nutshell.”
I completely disagree.
The real “money quote” is “..I believe Donald Trump is, on a number of issues, BETTER than what passes for conservatism today.”
In fact, the author thought so since he used it in the title.
“Trump on a Number of Issues is BETTER Than What Passes for Conservatism Today”.
Why, when praising Trump, does everyone have to always include their little negative caveats?
I support Donald Trump 100%. PERIOD! Most of the caveats, which I will not mention here, ARE who Donald Trump IS.
Are YOU perfect? I am not! (I was going to add “Trump is not”, but that might be construed as a caveat, so I won’t), no one but Jesus is.
It’s like you guys are constantly APOLOGIZING for our nominee!!!!
STOP IT.....!!!!!!
Are you “supporting him”... or are you “supporting him BUT”
We need not say that we support him because he is “better than Hillary”. Who doesn’t know that?!!
How about we SUPPORT him for his positions on the issues.

Watch all these little video vignettes.
TRUMP is FANTASTIC! I hope they run every one of these as commercials.
Trump is soooooo comfortable in his own skin. He is so REAL!!!! People/voters love this about Trump. He isn’t “acting”. He actually BELIEVES this stuff. The REAL Donald Trump shines through.
I don’t really disagree with your post, but I do think you missed the way I took both the title and the quote “I will not guarantee that conservatives will applaud everything Donald Trump does. But I can guarantee that Hillary Clinton will do nothing conservatives might applaud.”
It says “passes for conservatism.” Therefore, it is saying there is a lot of conservatism out there that is weak or cino (conservative in name only).
Even THAT TYPE of conservative should like Trump better than Hillary. That’s what I read it as saying.
OK. (But I’m still betting that a Harvard Professor only pays 7% on social security and not 14%)
I’ve read Trump’s issues. Some I support and some I do not. I’m neither surprised or disappointed by that because I have yet to vote for a candidate who I supported 100%. I suppose it would be nice to, but I’m not holding by breath waiting. I voted for Romney in 2008 not because I was an enthusiastic supporter but because on balance I agreed with many of his position and I disagreed with virtually everything Obama proposed. I voted for McCain for the same reason. And I am in the same position this year. I will vote for Trump in November not because I agree with all his positions but because given the choice we have he is by far the better candidate. And if that strikes you as “supporting him but...” then I’m sorry but that’s the way it is.
Woe is YOU! HEH HEH SEMPER FI
Why, when praising Trump, does everyone have to always include their little negative caveats?
EXACTLY, most have never read one of his books.
“Trump is NOT a small government guym (sic)” citation required for your caveat...
Exactly
That's an odd equivocation. It's virtually impossible to agree 100% with any candidate, heck I didn't agree with everything Reagan did.
I find Trump to be the candidate I agree with more than any other since Reagan. I support him whole heartedly, without reservation.
The way you put it, it sounds like you are holding your nose to vote for him, like we all did for McCain and Romney. I'm curious as to why you implied that, and what reasons you will give for what you said.
I'm not trying to pick a fight, but what do you find in Trump that upsets you? Honest question.
