Interesting thought line there, I never really thought about him just changing positions after getting rid of competition from his own party. Slip the the right, slip back to the left, as though the voting electorate is being lead by the nose... That is why Character matters (and you judge by past fruits).
Go Cruz Go...
I agree. Character matters. George Washington set a high standard. Bill Clinton demolished standards. Democrats, due to a higher level of partisanship and a general acceptance as a group with situational ethics as their guide, are far more willing to disregard character. We have no reason to do that on our side, and we should not. Some people get mad at me when I mention Trumps three marriages, but I believe that too is indicative of his character. He’s all too willing to break faith if it suits his purposes. Today, he feigns at being a true blue conservative. Yet, this whole approach - being a conservative - is very new to him.
We’ve also seen that many of Trumps attacks on Republican candidates come from the Left. He’s not well enough versed or committed to conservative views to attack from the right. He knows the attacks he’s read in the MSM, so he uses them. I truly believe he’s never read a book by a conservative writer, and he doesn’t really believe in limited government. He’s for government when it helps him with what he finds troubling, eminent domain, for example.
