I've noticed something similar. Real life Republicans don't hate Donald Trump; none that I know anyway, and I have been fairly active in my local party. Real life Republicans may definitely prefer other candidates to Donald Trump, particularly Cruz and Carson, but they don't hate Trump and they certainly don't ooze the vitriol toward Trump that I read here on Free Republic by posters who say they are conservative and support other candidates, and will never vote for Trump. Of course, one of them used the term “the masses” which to me says in reality this is a paid troll who is trying to undermine Trump by pretending to be a Cruz supporter, and just generally poisoning the well. I certainly can't say my observation is true in other parts of the country and in larger cities, but here I can't find a Trump hater among rank and file Republicans; hatred and anger are directed toward Jeb Bush, Lindsey Graham, Boehner, McConnell, etc.

Bears repeating.

Trump now has three detailed position papers on his website. I don't see this level of detail on any other candidate's website (please feel free to point out to me if otherwise).

The three position papers are for the following:

Immigration
Second Amendment Rights
Tax Reform

I'm sure others are to rapidly follow. While we can nitpick at these positions all day long, I don't think any reasonable conservative can deny that these are not major steps in the right direction.

Forget about whether or not Trump had Hillary at his wedding and whether or not he said nice things about some liberal back when he was greasing palms and pulling political levers to get what he wanted with regard to his business interests. He admits that and he states that it is not the way things should be. So now he's going to go about changing the system so that our government works for the people and not for special interests, lobbyists and other pressure groups.

Ronald Reagan is not going to come walking through that door. We must choose a conservative leader who will have the ability to deconstruct the Republican Party that has failed us and rebuild it bigger and better than it ever was before. Donald Trump is the only candidate who has both the desire and the ability to actually get this done.
