The “haters” part wasn’t aimed at you - just part of my comment on the gist of the article.
In any case, while I don't really trust Trump, I find the groundswell of support that he's getting very encouraging. Whatever his flaws as a candidate, it's heartening to see opposition to amnesty and open borders become a litmus test for a majority of Republican voters. I'd like to see a situation where support for amnesty effectively disqualifies any and all candidates from the nomination.
