I have been a Conservative since I was a teenager; but even so my manner of expressing that Conservatism on particular issues, gradually evolved between ages 12 and 16. If you insist on holding every previous mistaken sentiment against another evolving conservative, you are embracing a methodology that will make our recovery of the American purpose impossible. The vast majority have been conditioned to accept all sorts of things that would have been anathema to the Founding Fathers.

Indeed, the whole "politically correct," idiocy, which Trump derides, is a construct to defeat the possibility of a general wake-up, across the board.

To the extent that Trump still has any ideas that come from the general mass conditioning that the Leftist media & academia have been promoting; the best way to deal with that is for other Conservatives to work with him, and in that association, discuss the issues. He is a "deal maker." That can just as easily be an opening to reach him, as an approach that most of those whom he now derides have used to surrender the heritage that he now so forcibly champions.

He is a "deal maker."

But as a private citizen it's always been his stuff on the table. As President, it will be our stuff he's bartering to make the deal work.

Amen! Trump having potential advisers Phyliss Schlafly and Sarah Palin are definite steps in steering Trump down the proper path. Defeating Political Correctness is the first battle in this war that needs to be won.
