This has been Rush's and Mark Steyn's point repeatedly: these bastions of conservatism always have an excuse in the real world. They NEVER make a "stand on a hill" for anything because, "well, we will get 'em next time."

I keep saying it's about what gets done. I'd rather have a guy I agree with on 50% of the issues---but it's those 50% of the issues that get done---than a guy I agree with on 100% of the issues that gets nothing done.

For example, if all Trump does is build the wall, shut down illegal immigration, and stop the Muslim influx, that would pretty much be a good presidency in my book. Anything beyond that is pure gravy.

Spot on. The iimigration invasion is a national security issue and will affect national sovereignty forever.

I agree, and I'm pretty sure they'll be much more.
