Stop the crap about Republican/Conservative, we know Trump is neither. He is a Patriot, a Nationalist, someone who believes in America, believes America should be first in the world, and is dedicated to “Making America Great Again.” If you know what made this country great, then you know what Trump stands for.
OK show me the evidence that Trump has spent any money building a wall
Show me any evidence that Trump has spent money on our troops.
Where is the solid evidence that Trump is going to do the things you want.
No such evidence exists.
I’m a reasonable person that can be persuaded with facts. Unfortunately you do not have any facts that Trump.will restore our free republic. What you apparently desire is a nationalistic dictatorship.
Agreed.
And the immigration section was wrong. Ted wanted to increase H1Bs.
It’s even worse. Ted WROTE THE BILL to increase H-1Bs.
Cruz changed his stance, calling my for a halt to it, so the abuses could be stopped.
After two years of campaigning for a massive increase in H-1Bs and only called for a pause after Trump had outflanked him on the issue. Cruz come across as not authentic at all on this issue. Sorry.
I guess these people were surprised when Ronald Reagan reduced tax rates and the result was increased federal revenues.
Their analysis isn't worth the ink to print them. Their view is zero-sum and done in a vacuume.

But, but... he’ll build a wall!
All because Trump said so, Despite his monetary support for Democrats and their causes in the past.
Sealing the border is paramount.Everything else is important but pales in comparison to sealing the border.Building the wall forces sudsequent administrations to defend the wall and our borders.The ones that don’t will lose elections and seats.You’re are witnessing this now with Trumps numbers.Hold on to your hat.
Political choices are never binary. There is usually a better independent candidate.
If people would drop their pompoms and vote for the best candidate, we’d have a lot fewer problems in this country.
By binary I meant that one is always making a qualitative (better or worse) comparison between one candidate and, in turn, each of the other possibilities. As for better independent candidates, I’ve been voting in Presidential elections since 1972 and I haven’t voted for a third-party candidate yet. (John Schmitz? Eugene McCarthy? John Anderson? Ross Perot? Ralph Nader? the Libertarians? No thanks.)
Yet, both Trump and Cruz, have changed their immigrations stances over the last few years.
Better late to the party than not at all.
>>What you apparently desire is a nationalistic dictatorship.<<
Not true.
Non sequitur from anything I said, or anyone said.
I desire strong borders, low taxes including corporations, and tariffs on goods entering the country. The tariffs can and should be used to replace a lot of the income taxes, and for other purposes such as, in the case of MEXICO, paying for the wall. In addition, I want strong military, and I do not want to cut social security or medicare, at least not without a long-term glide path.
My original point was, and still is, that small government values are not what people really want. It is JUST RHETORIC from the 22 pundits of NR who, as someone said, are sitting around in an enclosed room deeply inhaling their own farts.
We need to take back the country from the globalist-socialist tendencies of both parties, which have created this mess.
Ben Shapiro is awesome. I am shocked that someone posing as a Conservative would denigrate him in order to prop up Donald Trump. Throughout the article, it is Donald Trump's own words that condemn him. Live with it.
Ben Shapiro is a ferret faced joke who thinks Trump is a fascist but that Palestinians should be expelled from the West Bank. I'm constantly surprised by the number of people who have been fooled by the "conservative" make-believe by creeps like Ben Shapiro.
Trump is to the left of Romney when it comes to immigration. And on health care as well. And unlike Trump, I don't recall Romney making any exceptions for abortion when he was running for President either. On property rights, Trump is also to the left of Romney. In fact, he's to the left of Bernie Sanders, too.
It's your business if you want to support Trump. But please don't lie about him having Conservative creds.
And after he secures the border, he will expedite the return of deported illegals to the US. Nice, eh?
Goldman Sachs did not donate to Ted Cruz's campaign. But then you knew that already. Yet you still chose to lie about it. Again.
You know Trump’ past views on this. Do you really want to go there?
Fact: BOTH men have taken a harder line than either had in the past.
If you want to play “ who’s on first we can do this, but I don’t think it would matter to you anyway.
FYI:
Could “outflanked” bethat Cruz says no illegals are allowed back once deported, while Trump will “expedite” the “good ones” through a “big, beautiful, door” in his “wall”?
You could have just agreed with me that they are both tougher on immigration than they used to be, if you so chose to do so,
Either way, whatever.
