“A lot of people around here don’t think Trump is a conservative.”

I would like for them to point out the non-conservative stands he is pushing.

Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on American companies that put their factories in other countries.” He’s also vowed to to “increase taxes on the compensation of hedge fund managers” to ensure that the rich pay “their fair share.” Recent estimates put Trump’s tax reform plan as adding 10 TRILLION to the National Debt. His position on illegal immigration involves somehow sending over 12 million illegals “home” only to let most of them return. He’s against pulling funding for planned parenthood because, “they do many other good things.” He now SAYS he’s opposes abortion but his position for years supported free choice at any stage of pregnancy. Until VERY recently, he supported a ban on assault weapons. He says he’ll repeal Obamacare but he’s expressed support of a single payer system. From what I’ve heard thus far, Donald Trump is not a cheerleader for limited government. Seems more PROGRESSIVE than Conservative. I’m finding it interesting that so many here seem to consider Trump as a shining star for the GOP. I just don’t see it.
