I DO believe he will govern as a conservative - even if he doesn’t think of it that way - the actions will be the same.

I think the nation has drifted so far left that you don’t need a Reaganesque philosopher to explain the founding principles. Its obvious we simply need an about face and say FU to the leftists benifiting from the entrenched cronyism and redistribution schemes. 60-70% of the people get it that we are getting hosed by the left - now we just need someone who has the balls to lead the rebelion. That’s Trump. I think most of the 60-70% potential Trump supporters’ eyes would glaze over when the hear about founding principles, checks and balances, inalianable rights, etc. And whether Trump acts as conservative or a pragmatist, the actions will be the same - cut the government way back and build up the defense!
