It’s good to be principled...like closing the border, building a wall, deportation of illegals/criminals, bring jobs back, negotiating good trade deals...making America great again.

Wheee! Just click you ruby slippers together and everything will be fine!

It isn't YOUR wishlist that matters - It's the other conservative factions. Of course you are going to vote what seems right to you, but if you are not going to hold up the principles of all of us along with your own (meaning even the ones you don't especially care about), then not only will you lose, but you are doing a terrible disservice to the Conservative movement.

Supporting a candidate who is nominally Christian at best is telling the Christians that their deeply held convictions do not matter - Causing division. What that will inevitably do is cause the Christians to lift up their own candidate, who regards their principles as paramount, and thus the division is completed. Now two conservative factions are directly in opposition, and the neocon walks up the middle and takes the prize (only to lose in the general).

The only way we win is for every conservative faction to be represented in the candidate - A candidate who stands for ALL American Conservative principles. There is only one out there that can pull that off, and that ain't trump.

You guys get the bit in your teeth and forget that trump has nothing to offer the Christians, and nothing to offer the Military/Foreign Policy guys, and nothing to offer the civil-libertarians... He has a poor record, and all we can go by is election year promises (and we all know what those are worth).

Of course Christians should not vote trump. He has nothing at all for them, and cannot serve them.
