Shows how “conservative” he really is.

Even PJ wouldn’t call himself a conservative.
He’s libertarian.

P.J.'s a Conservative, albeit with a strong Libertarian streak. Donald Trump is not a Conservative in any reasonable the sense of the word. Government universal health care coverage and increased tax progressivity (higher taxes on the "rich") alone place him beyond the pale.

He's really most like an old fashioned Democrat, of the Ed Koch variety, loudly patriotic but hardly anti-government, who has captured the hearts and imaginations of Americans who are sick and tired of the pansy professional political class grinning as they rob us while running the country into the ground.

Trump's the joker in the deck. His crude directness and unpredictability are things many if not most voters find to be his best features. I would not be surprised if P.J. is playing the court fool by endorsing Hillary. If he's serious it may just be taking longer for him than some of us to realize that a stark choice between the known of Hillary and the gamble that is Trump is no choice at all.
