I don’t ‘like’ Donald Trump. I hate obnoxious over-confident blowhards. I do find Trump to be a useful idiot right now taking on the status quo. But keep in mind Trump has no track record as a politician and his statements are all over the place. He has said he likes single-payer health care and increased taxes and tariffs and actually supported Hillary Clinton. More recently he has made more conservative sounding statements but he is running for President as a Republican. Was he lying then or now? Trump is more of a populist. Who knows how a populist with no real idealogy would govern.
Ted Cruz is the only solid conservative running for President. I continue to support Cruz.
“Trump is more of a populist”
Yes. And a salesman.
He knows what to say to his clients.
If he were to get the nomination his client base would broaden to the general populace and populist rhetoric to get the bulk of America on board would probably be very different than his current rhetoric.
